Question to the Department for Transport:

To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, how many and what proportion of disabled people currently hold a driving licence.

Data from the National Travel Survey show that in 2020, 60% of disabled people aged 17 and over in England held a full car driving licence, compared with 83% of those with no disability. Data are not available on the number of disabled people who hold a driving licence, as the proportions above are derived from a sample and are therefore estimates rather than precise figures.

Updated figures will follow in the next release of the disability statistics publication.
