You will become more aware of other road users and how to adapt to different conditions. It usually takes between three to six months to progress to your test. This does depend on frequency of drives. The test takes around ninety minutes of which sixty minutes will be actual driving covering a number of different routes and scenarios including country roads and motorways.

Once you have passed you will become a Full IAM RoadSmart Member and you can often receive insurance cost reductions as a result.
