Welcome to Gloucestershire Advanced Motorists

Our aim is to improve driving standards and road safety in the County of Gloucestershire. We offer advanced training to car drivers using our trained volunteer Observers on a one-to-one basis. We also conduct regular theory training days and host a variety of speakers at our evening meetings at the Cotswold Area Civil Service Sports Club.

Gloucestershire Advanced Motorists

Join in our meetings and meet like minded drivers who want to aspire to be amongst the best.  Our Introduction to Advanced Driving Seminar is a great place to start, and why not book a Free Taster drive.

We Welcome Young Drivers
