IAM RoadSmart Volunteers
All our Observers and Committee are volunteers

We believe that driving should be an enjoyable experience and aim to help you achieve the skills you need to be able to navigate today’s driving environment in a safe and stress free way.   We tailor your drives to your existing skill level, helping you gain the skills you need to become an Advanced Driver. Anyone can benefit from learning Advanced Driving skills; from people who wish to get more out of their car to those who just want to gain more confidence behind the wheel.  As an organisation, we provide guidance for anyone with a full driving licence to prepare for the Advanced Driving Test and enjoy the benefits of being a Member of The Institute of Advanced Motorists. It’s all about driving enjoyment.

Cheshire Police Blue Light Community Engagement Day 2019Ben, Mike & Phil at Winsford Blue Light Event 2019

Chester and Nantwich Advanced Drivers had a very successful day at Cheshire Police & Fire Service Blue Light Community Engagement Day at their Winsford joint headquarters.
The day was an opportunity for the Cheshire Police and Fire Service to engage with the community, through numerous stands and events encompassing; Taser demonstrations, a mock road traffic collision, Police Dog demonstrations and the Constabulary’s Band performances.

 

Thanks to CaNAD’s then Vice Chairman (Mike) the group were able to have their own stand alongside the Force’s own stands to promote IAM Roadsmart and Road Safety in general.
Over 6,000 people enjoyed the day, and Ben, Mike and Phil were able to offer over 20 people Taster Drives with our group.Cheshire Fire & Rescue Service Logo
