MotoringDo you wonder what the Disabled Motorists Federation actually does? Read about their work here This is the area for information on aids to help keep you on the road. Whether you are a wheelchair-using driver or passenger looking for a WAV (wheelchair accessible vehicle), or someone with reduced dexterity seeking control adaptations, you should find what you need here. If you need wheelchair accessible transport, or a car with adapted driving controls, for a short time only, it is possible to hire an adapted vehicle - either small or large - on a self-drive rental basis. |

The motoring section is divided into: Control Adaptations - ways of adapting
both the main driving controls and secondary controls of a vehicle to
overcome disabilities. Aids for getting in and out - whether you
are a wheelchair user, or an ambulant driver or passenger who has difficulty
getting in and out of a vehicle. Car Conversions - the lowdown on family
cars and people carriers that have been specially adapted to take a wheelchair. Accessories - from garage door openers
to parking sensors, motoring accessories that make life easier. Electric vehicles - do your bit to save the planet with an alternative to the internal combustion engine. If you have seriously reduced mobility, and difficulties in funding your vehicle purchase or adaptation, Motability may be able to help with a grant. You can fnd out more from their helpline on: 0845 456 4566
