I've just had 3 associates pass the IAM test in 5 days :D :D :D

Two of them were Uni student lads, both in their late teens - the other was a 40 year old manager who had a very nice Lexus 4X4 hybrid.
I should not have got the latter to test standard so quickly as I loved being driven in that Lexus :roll: :wink:

Anyway, that's numbers 92, 93 & 94 on my test passes assisted by ROG sheet :)

6 more please as I want that 100 !!

The two uni guys trained together but in their own cars - we swapped cars half way through each long session.
Each took it in turns to do the first drive as we did the same route each session - each session having a different route.
They took about a year to do it as they did not do any driving when at Uni.

It's certainly not me (current tally's about 10, some IAM and some RoADAR) , although we have at least two observers in Chelmsford IAM who have over 100 each to their names.

regards

Excellent, well done Rog!

Here's hoping you make good progress towards the 'ton' soon :twisted:
