I expect many Observers/Tutors have been in the position of saying, or not saying something to a trainee whilst wearing the IAM/RoADA hat. For example, for those who have perfected heel"n"toe, left foot braking, trail braking etc. fully understand the extra safety benefits of these techniq...

I agree with Gareth.

The risk is that Reg’s comments may be taken out of context and without the caveats.

I would not be surprised, if I were told, that there are many IAM/RoADA Examiners, Observers and Tutors that at times are flexible with NSLs.

The issue now is that while he may only treat the NSL as flexible, and stick to the other posted limits, the councils have started installing swathes of 40 and 50 limits that were once NSL.

OMG it’s like listening to oneself. Good for him for straight talking and to do this in a video. I agree with his comments about 80/85 mph and three figure speeds.

Well at last in todays Downing Street Update it was admitted not to expect much to change this "calendar year". Baring a miracle that was stating the obvious, just taken them some time to come out and say it.

I’ve been wondering the same. From what we are hearing now it looks like it is unlikely that car observing can be considered at least until the end of the year unless a vaccine can be found earlier. With close proximity in the car and the age of many Observers and Associates I think we will be among...
