Why use DriverCheck?

DriverCheck provides driving licence checking services for businesses, including instantly checking their drivers’ records against the DVLA database (also available for drivers in Northern Ireland, overseas and grey fleet). These checks are then undertaken on a continual basis to ensure businesses remain compliant and reduce their drivers’ road risk.

AXA’s customers are offered a special discounted rate for DriverCheck’s services.
