Regulations for people with disabilities to obtain driving licences

Morocco’s Road Code and its implementing regulations allow people with special needs to take the test for obtaining a driving license on their own vehicle.

People with physical disabilities can take the driving test using their own vehicle. Specific arrangements or medical devices recommended by a doctor can compensate for disabilities during the test.

Medical certificates must detail any restrictions and specific arrangements or devices necessary for driving.

The driving license must include these details, as per Article 7 of the Road Code. If vehicles are specially adapted for disabled persons, this information must be indicated on the license using symbols defined in Annex 6 of Decree No. 2709.10.

Vehicle type and adaptation to controls

Article 47 of the code concerning the construction, equipment, and layout of vehicles, particularly regarding special devices and fittings for individuals with special needs.
Vehicles can be modified based on the recommendations provided in the medical certificate, ensuring they are adapted to the specific needs of the individual.
Vehicles modified for individuals with special needs must undergo a separate approval process to verify compliance with the specifications outlined in the medical certificate. This process ensures the vehicle’s suitability for use on public roads.
