You must notify us immediately if, at any time between placing your initial order for the Subscription Services and the end of the Hire Period, you cease to hold the required driving licence, or any new endorsements are recorded against your driving licence. If you cease to hold the required driving licence, or if, in our opinion a driving licence endorsement makes you unsuitable to continue to use our Subscription Services, we will have the right to terminate the Subscription Agreement in accordance with clause 26.3 (We may end this contract if you break it) of our General Terms.

Eligibility for Named Drivers

Each Named Driver must meet the following eligibility criteria to be permitted to drive the Vehicle in accordance with the Subscription Agreement:

• be at least 25 years of age (or at least 30 for vehicles in ABI Group 31 and above); and
• meet the same the driving licence conditions as those set out in respect of the Main driver above.

You must notify us immediately if, at any time between placing your initial order for the Subscription Services and the end of the Hire Period, any Named Driver ceases to hold the required driving licence, or any new endorsements are recorded against their driving licence. If they cease to hold the required driving licence, or if, in our opinion a driving licence endorsement makes them unsuitable to continue to be permitted to drive the Vehicle, the Subscription Agreement will remain in force, but that Named Driver will no longer be permitted to drive the Vehicle.
