Motability and work query

I'm renewing my access to work claim and they're asking some questions about my partner driving the motability car to the station when I travel. I can't drive due to my disability,can't get to the station without a life, and he's named on the insurance.
They're asking if he drives me to station and then comes home or if he drives to drop me and then drives to work.
Beyond him using it with me or for me (like getting meds etc), this is how we use it:
- The day I go into the office, he drops me at the station and comes home (we both work from home, with me in the office 1 x month and him 1 x week).
- The day a week he drives to work (always when I'm not in the office) I travel with him to work somewhere so that he's close by.
Are both of these scenarios fine under the permitted use of the car under the scheme. We have added business use onto the insurance.
I just want to be safe in responding as much as I'm sure we are fine, I hate the DWP and know they'll do anything to catch you out.
