Driving classes
Here’s a list of driving classes for people with physical or learning disabilities in Auckland.
Driving with a disability
Most people with physical disabilities can get a driver licence, and most people who had a licence before they acquired a disability can continue to drive.
Power steering and automatic cars have helped make driving possible for people with physical disabilities. In addition, almost any standard production vehicle can be modified.
St John Health Shuttle
The Waka Ora Health Shuttle is a koha based community service, delivered by volunteers, that transports people to health and wellbeing related appointments, and then brings them home again.

You’ll also get an accessible concession loaded on a Total Mobility AT HOP card used to pay for discounted travel on public transport.
