Meet the Observers – WAM

Meet the Observers

WAM observers are a team of volunteers, made up of motivated full members who have passed their Advanced Riding Test and decided to extend their skills to qualify as an Institute of Motor Industries (IMI) Local or National Observer, with the responsibility and satisfaction of helping others achieve a better standard of riding. Our qualified, experienced and motivated Observers are essential for the successful operation of all IAM RoadSmart affiliated Groups.

The primary goals of the observing team is to :

Create better riders and drivers;
Improve the standards of driving and riding on our roads;
Promote and improve road safety for all road users;
Administer nationally recognised Advanced Driving and Motorcycle Riding Tests.
