We consider an electron coupled to the quantized radiation field and subject to a slowly varying electrostatic potential. We establish that over sufficiently long times radiation effects are negligible and the dressed electron is governed by an effective one-particle Hamiltonian. In the proof only a few generic properties of the full Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian H_PF enter. Most importantly, H_PF must have an isolated ground state band for |p| < p_c <= \infty with p the total momentum and p_c indicating that the ground state band may terminate. This structure demands a local approximation theorem, in the sense that the one- particle approximation holds until the semi-classical dynamics violates |p|
