    Do i have 24 hour care, do i employ a carer, do i take medication for my disability, have i made an insurance claim on my current car or any other , any one else experienced this ? I cant see any of the above related in the PDF by @jmac .

    i think a couple of the questions show in the videos. i did asked motabiliity about carer and care home etc and was told it because of insurance purposes.  i will try and answer the way i understood i best i can. if yes is ticked then it opens another page for further details/declorations , the insurance claims one is shown in the video and that one ive been asked for years everytime you get an insurance qoute/hire a vehicle etc pretty standard i think, the employed  carer/care home/school is not them checking up its because it changes the insurance from the standard domestic use to business and another form needs filling out plus there was mention of depending on criteria a tracker may need fitting (another form). medication wise they have a list of medications by dvla that may bar you from driving or invalidate insurance so another form/futher info needed to confirm your ok to drive. the way she explained it didnt make it seem like they were prying just fact gathering and making sure we the customer are aware of our liabilities and responsibilities (and geeting us to sign/confirm we know). more covering their ass some might say. i forgot to ask about the payment but have read somewhere entering of the pin is still in place (there is an exemption on the customers behalf by a named driver if needed i think) ill see if i can find it. in normal time we have always just paid by debit card on the day so dont know about that one, i personally wouldnt pay by bankers draft though surely chip or pin or bacs on handover day would do.
