New report on public attitudes shows that "some 87 per cent of daily drivers say they would accept some form of delay to their typical journeys to make roads safer, challenging the assumption that safety measures will be unpopular with motorists." bit.ly/4oCunfj

Late August 2025, and we have 11 new Associates joining us to participate in the third of our 2025 Advanced Driving courses for Greater Manchester.

As a charity, we rely on the time and expertise that our volunteer tutors give so freely to help promote road safety, and safe driving. Great to see Josh qualify as a new tutor with RoSPA Advanced Drivers and Riders Manchester today. #Rospa #Roadar #Manchester

As a road safety charity, we are run by a small group of volunteers. All our driving tutors undergo regular training, and here we have our group Chair Ian presenting an Advanced Tutor certificate to Stu, qualifying him to train our group tutors.

The SLAP Test; a good way to assess if a planned manoeuvre is viable when motorcycling or driving.

What does passing a RoSPA Advanced Driving (or riding) test at Gold standard mean? Take a look below.

"Gold is only awarded to a driver who shows a consistently high standard of driving throughout the test."

Keeping our roads safe. #rospa #advanceddriving #greatermanchester #roadsafety

Be honest to yourself & continue to learn.

Driving is a skill.

If you're not an advanced driver, get training.

Your life, the lives of your passengers & the lives of everyone on the roads depend on your ability to drive. Safely.

The people who come along for our Manchester advanced driver courses cover a very wide age range. The youngest driver on our current course is 18. And we heard today that someone from our autumn course passed his advanced driving test this week at the age of 80!
