About The Kent Group of Advanced Motorists


Picture
OPERATING ON A VOLUNTARY BASIS WE ARE ONE OF MANY GROUPS AFFILIATED TO THE INSTITUTE OF ADVANCED MOTORISTS​

​The aims of the IAM are:
  • To improve the standards of driving (and riding) on the roads.
  • The improvement of road safety. 
  • The administration of a nationally recognised IAM Roadsmart advanced test 
Their are a number of benefits of passing the advanced test. You will be a much safer driver and will find that you enjoy your driving more. From a financial perspective the IAM has its own insurance, IAM Surety, which offers members cheaper car insurance for over 90% of advanced motorists. As an IAM member you will also have access to several Skills Days held nationally during the year, at specially negotiated rates. These popular and challenging events are run by the IAM and are a great opportunity to learn new techniques on and off-road and share your passion for driving and riding with fellow enthusiasts. Members also benefit from discounts with the IAM vehicle leasing, discounts on tyres, breakdown cover, serving and airport parking.

In addition to preparing Associates for the IAM Roadsmart test, the group also offers free drive assessments which allows you to have your driving assessed at no cost and no obligation

Our Observers

The Observers are all volunteers who give up their time to assist and encourage Associate Members to prepare for the IAM Advanced Driving Test.  

​They are qualified either as a
Local Observer or as a National Observer. Each Observer undergoes a rigorous training course with one of the Group’s Training Officers and are required to be tested every three years 
Any Associate member who passes the IAM Advanced Driving Test is eligible to apply to become an Observer.  Acceptance will be dependent on requirements at the time.
