Free guidance for charity minibus drivers
Howard Lake | 8 January 2004 | News
IAM Fleet, the commercial training division of the Institute of Advanced Motorists, is offering a free ./guidance booklet for anyone who regularly drives a minibus for a charitable or educational institution.
IAM Fleet says that the responsibilities of and challenges for the many charity volunteers, scout group leaders and teachers who drive minibuses are “grossly underestimated.” Unlike coach drivers, who take a special driving test, minibus drivers who passed their car test before 1 January 1997 are not required to undergo any further training or tests.
The IAM Fleet booklet, entitled “Minibus Driving – Your Skill, Their Care”, provides ./guidance on subjects such as legal requirements, loading, driving techniques and hazard avoidance.
