Can I sit with a learner driver if I have sight loss?
The DVLA website advises that:
Anyone you practise your driving with (without paying them) must:
- be over 21
- be qualified to drive the type of vehicle you want to learn in, for example they must have a manual car licence if they’re supervising you in a manual car
- have had their full driving licence for 3 years (from the UK, the EU, Switzerland, Norway, Iceland or Liechtenstein)
Further information can be found on the Gov.UK Driving lessons and learning to drive webpages.
