How to Join Carmarthen and West Wales Advanced Motorists
Joining our group is easy — just follow the steps below to get started on your journey toward becoming a safer, more confident driver with IAM RoadSmart and our local team here in West Wales.
Step 1: Join IAM RoadSmart
Start by joining IAM RoadSmart nationally. You can do this online or by calling:
📞 0300 303 1134
🌐 www.iamroadsmart.com
Once signed up, you’ll receive a welcome pack and a course logbook. Based on your postcode, you’ll be automatically linked with Carmarthen and West Wales Advanced Motorists, but if you prefer another group, this can be changed.
Step 2: Join Carmarthen & West Wales Group
When you join IAM RoadSmart, you’ll receive one year of free membership with our local group.
After passing your Advanced Test, your membership can be renewed with us for a small annual fee — currently £12.00 per year — helping support local training and events.
Step 3: Begin Your Advanced Training
You’ll be paired with one of our qualified local Observers, who will guide you through a series of observed drives based in Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire, or Ceredigion. These sessions are informal, supportive, and tailored to your pace and experience.
Our Observers are all experienced volunteers, and many meet regularly on Sunday mornings at Morrisons Café in Carmarthen — a great opportunity to get started and meet the team.
