The weather is now starting to change and though there's no immediate likelihood of ice, be aware of slippery leaves and standing water. Always drive within your and your vehicles capability.

We are starting to get things moving again .. we are looking for inputs from all Group Members. Paul will shortly be issuing an e-mail canvassing your thoughts, please spend a few minutes to consider and respond to the questions being asked.

The overnight snow and low temperatures have made the roads extremely hazardous, don't get in your car today unless you really need to and if you have to drive make sure the windows and lights are clear of ice and snow.

Now our web-site is back up again please keep a watch here for updates regarding IAM RoadSmart and Covid-19 as well as local traffic issues.

Weather conditions continue to be very variable, keep a close watch on the conditions that you may encounter on any trip and plan for the worse; always keep some warm clothing in the car and make sure your mobile phone is fully charged before every trip.

The weather continues to improve and many more people are taking to walking and riding bicycles than ever before so be extra careful whilst out in your car. Remember to leave a full 1.5 metres between you and any cyclist.

Additional care is going to be required on our roads now that people are starting to get into their cars again. Take a look at our article at: https://t.co/kAx9RGBOim

We are still in Lock-down however that means that if you do drive be even more vigilant as people will not necessarily be concentrating and can easily be distracted by apparently lighter loaded roads. Observation is the key!

[Wolves_IAM2 @Wolves_IAM2]

The weather is at last improving, giving us some respite from the other issues in our lives at this time however don't be tempted to drive unnecessarily, we all need to do our part and remain out of circulation as much as possible.

[Wolves_IAM2 @Wolves_IAM2]

The roads are a great deal quieter at the moment however do remember that people are possibly distracted at the moment and consequently if your are driving be extra vigilant!

[Wolves_IAM2 @Wolves_IAM2]

Watch out for leaves and standing water on the road. Drive at appropriate speeds and be careful, if you have to go through any water, that may make your brakes wet, slight brake pressure for a hundred yards afterwards to dry them off otherwise they may not stop you when you want

[Wolves_IAM2 @Wolves_IAM2]

Weather very changeable at the moment so ensure that your car is fully "fit for purpose". Additionally with the possibility of wet leaves on road surfaces be aware of how slippery they can be and manage speed accordingly.

Great Meeting with Robbie the other night; a quick refresher on many aspects of advanced driving as well as amusing anecdotes and guidance at all levels for the attendees. (Advanced driving is not about being pedantic but being both safer and more responsive on our busy roads),
