Why do our Associates buy the Advanced Driver course?

A Young Driver said: “I wanted to improve my driving further having passed my test. I saw what really good driving was like and wanted to be able to drive in the same way”

An Older Driver said: ” Several of my contemporaries had given up driving having lost confidence. I decided to do the Mature Driver review and my examiner recommended that I take the full Advanced course which I have done. I recommend it to anyone”

Do you know how to use your car cruise control and speed limiter system?

As an IAM RoadSmart Observer I am amazed how many people that I drive with do not.

Using either option helps to keep you within the speed limit and reduces workload on longer journeys.
