uses volunteers driving their own car. this service normally operates within the city, but longer journeys can be made. it may be possible to arrange regular trips. if a volunteer uses his or her own car, a mileage rate is charged (including mileage to and from the driver’s home). please contact sct for the current rate of charges for this service. phone 0114 276 6148 for more information .
the service picks up passengers from their own homes and takes them to the major shopping areas around the city, including for the theatre, park or wherever you want to go .
if the person you care for receives the higher rate mobility allowance and will do so for at least three years, they may be able to use it to buy or lease a car through the motability scheme. they can do this either by contract hire (which means you rent the car, all maintenance, insurance and breakdown cover costs being included) or by hire purchase (under which the car belongs to you and you therefore have to meet those costs yourself) .
if the person you care for receives higher rate mobility allowance, they can apply for an exemption on road tax, either on their own car or on yours, as the carer. you need to bear in mind that technically, if the person nominates your car, you can only use it for carrying the disabled person, and you would be committing an offence if you use the car to go to work or for an evening out alone. there is more information on the dvla website .
in exceptional circumstances, a disabled person may be exempt from the normal requirement to wear a seatbelt. if the disabled person thinks this could apply to them, they should consult their doctor who can issue an exemption certificate if they think it is appropriate .
some motoring organisations have special offers and services for drivers with disabilities. for instance, the rac has a blue badge breakdown cover scheme, and the aa allow you to register your specialist needs so that they bring the correct equipment and accessible vehicles with them to your incident .
a disabled person may be able to get a blue badge which enables them to park closer to their destination if they are getting higher rate mobility component, are blind or have permanent and substantial difficulty in walking. the disabled person does not have to be able to drive themselves in order to qualify for a badge and they can be given to children over the age of two .
the scheme covers the whole country, but there are some places where it does not operate, or does so on a restricted basis – such as central london – so you need to be aware of local regulations before using the badge .
disabled go is a fantastic resource that details exactly how accessible places are around the country, with information about everything from toilets, hearing loops, seats being available and the use of braille. you can search for any public building or location here .
if travelling by train with someone who has mobility problems, it is always best to phone in advance to let station staff know you are travelling .

the quartix feature that sct has utilised the most is live vehicle tracking, which requires no proprietary software and can be accessed through any internet - connected device or through quartix’s free mobile apps. the system uses gps satellites and google maps, backed by street view and traffic integration, to give sct a complete picture of their fleet’s whereabouts in real time .
‘we use live tracking to quickly pinpoint where particular vehicles are. this is helpful as some of our passengers get a little anxious if the driver is not with them exactly on time. as we can tell where the driver is, we can reassure passengers that the driver will be with them soon – or alternatively let them know that there is a delay, ’ mr. jenkinson says .
‘we also wanted to monitor driver behaviour, ’ he adds. for this, sct has made great use of the quartix driving style reports. with more than 30 million vehicle movement events captured every day, quartix has compiled an extensive road speed database, which allows the system to not only monitor the speed of a driver, but to compare their speeds against what the majority of other drivers have driven on the same roads. this comprehensive and accurate profile of the driver’s style also includes their braking and acceleration indexes, and can be compared between all the drivers in a fleet through quartix’s league table of driver scores, to determine who is driving safely and who might need improvement .
‘we use the driver performance reports in order to identify any drivers who are particularly harsh on acceleration or braking. this has definitely helped with less wear on tyres, as well as fuel consumption, ’ mr. jenkinson says. in terms of savings, sct estimates their fuel costs have been reduced by 7% to 8% since they installed the quartix trackers. ‘we are also much more aware of the routes drivers take, which can sometimes not be the most efficient. ’
