The vehicle must be used for the purpose of the disabled person so your partner may not be able to use it for this purpose. Especially going on holiday, if you are not with them.
It maybe better to keep all your motability questions in one thread rather than start another thread on the same subject.0 -
Afternoon @basingwerk
Thanks for posing this question, I think it's quite a common one when it comes to motability vehicles.
They have an information page here that covers how you can and can't use your car, and this other page about who can drive your car says the below:Remember, the car must be used by, or for the benefit of, the disabled person. This does not mean that the disabled person needs to be in the car for every journey. In practice, this means other named drivers in the household can use the car for shopping and other routine activities, as long as the disabled person will benefit.
If you have any doubts, it might be worth getting in touch with motability to check your query0 -
