DVSA approve people to be driving instructors and motorcycle trainers. They provide training courses for qualified drivers, such as Driver CPC courses for HGV, bus and coach drivers, and drink-drive rehabilitation courses.

DVSA are also responsible for approving MOT testers and centres. We test vehicles like HGVs and buses remotely and at the roadside, to make sure they are following safety regulations. We monitor vehicle recalls, making sure manufacturers fix problems. And we licence and monitor companies with buses, coaches and goods vehicles.
