 Glasgow North Group of Advanced Motorists IAM RoadSmart (The Institute of Advanced Motorists) in partnership with Police Scotland, are offering a drop in event in Helensburgh on Sunday the 21st of April 2024.

Open to all with a car or motorcycle licence, members of the public will have the opportunity to have an assessment by an Advanced driver/rider observer who will accompany you on a 20 minute route from Hermitage Academy. Jim Bowles from Glasgow North IAM RS said: “Having your driving skills periodically reviewed is part of being a responsible motorist. It is a great way to ensure that you and your passengers are safe. Even if you are an excellent driver, our expert assessor can make sure your skills are as sharp as they can be.”

Scottish Fire & Rescue Service will be supporting the event with one of their operational appliances and a virtual reality programme for the public to experience.

The event is being provided free of charge with local sponsorship from Toyota Helensburgh and Argyll & Bute Council. So drop in for a cuppa, and gain valuable advice to improve your skill and confidence, an opportunity not to be missed.
