Young Drivers Special Offer

MKAM (affiliated to the IAM) is a registered charity whose object is to improve the standard of driving and riding in the U.K., and thereby reduce the number of injuries and fatalities on our roads.

Statistics show
One in three young male drivers will write off a car in their first year of driving. Young women are half as likely to do so.
Male drivers under 25 cause the most serious and fatal accidents of any age group.
One quarter of the convictions for causing death by dangerous driving are for drivers under 20, even though this age group represents just 3% of all drivers.
One quarter of drivers under 21 who have an accident lost control of their car.

IAM members who have passed the Advanced Driving Test, are up to 75% less likely to have an accident than the average driver*. We don’t crawl along at a snail’s pace, in fact Advanced Drivers and Riders are able to make better progress, by searching for chances to move through traffic, choosing safe places to overtake, planning our driving, anticipating what other road users are going to do and being ahead of the game.

Our trained volunteer observers help members to improve their driving/riding, by giving hints how they can to better their skills, using the police system of vehicle control.
