RAC Know-How

RAC for disabled drivers

As approved partners of the Motability Car Scheme, we’ve been helping Motability drivers since 1998. In fact, since then we’ve attended over 800,000 breakdowns for Motability members alone. No other breakdown service has more experience in serving disabled drivers.

Breakdown cover for disabled drivers

If you’ve got a disability, personal transport is essential. It’s how you get around most easily. That’s why our main priority is to keep you mobile.

If you’re not a Motability customer RAC offers Response, a priority service exclusively for Blue Badge holders.

Our experience with disabled drivers, both through Motability and Response, means we’re in tune with your needs and can offer disabled motorists a dedicated breakdown assistance service.

"The experience of breaking down has made me feel safe in the knowledge that we are covered by RAC. I will be getting another car in addition to mum’s Motability car in August and will be covering myself with RAC." - Miss Dimond.

Finding you fast

Because we can locate you from your mobile phone signal (if there is one) we can find you fast, even if you don’t know where you are. And while you’re waiting, our call handlers keep you in the picture and reassure you until one of our patrols arrive.

"I was particularly cheered by the RAC Breakdown operator who was able to locate my position when I foolishly didn’t know the name or number of the road on which I had broken down! Your ‘knight of the road’ was with me within 30 minutes." - Ms Anne Smith.
