Older driver assessments
A calm, respectful driving assessment for older drivers across London and the surrounding counties — whether you're self-referring or worried about a loved one's safety.
Worried about your own driving, or a parent's? Our older driver assessment is a calm, respectful check of how safe you are on the road today. It's not a pass-or-fail test. Whether you've referred yourself or you're concerned about someone else, you'll get a clear, honest picture and practical next steps.
Our assessors specialise in age-related driving — cognitive changes, eyesight, reaction time and medical conditions. We turn what we find into plain, easy-to-follow advice. Every assessment is tailored, supportive and based on real driving, so you and your family can feel confident in the outcome.
What the assessment involves
We come to you and assess in your local area. The assessment has four parts:
An eyesight check — reading a number plate from 20 metres
A physical check — range of movement, strength and coordination
A short cognitive check — around 15 minutes, looking at how the brain is working
The drive — around 30 minutes on roads you know
Your assessment, in your area
If you only drive locally and have no memory or cognitive concerns, we'll mirror the roads you actually use. If you drive further afield — or there's a chance of getting lost — we'll extend the assessment to cover those roads and road types too. That way, the result reflects your real driving.
