Olivier maintains his high standard

Congratulations to Olivier Hofstede who recently passed his IAM Fellow retest with another F1rst performance. IAM Fellows commit to a retest every 3 years to the same exacting standards as their original advanced driving test, and Olivier managed to attain F1rst status with a score of ‘1’ in all but one of the 23 marked categories. A very impressive result and a well earned achievement.

His examiner said ” Olivier demonstrated a safe, legal and systematic drive throughout, with speed control within the posted speed limits; on the open roads we made good safe progress. He demonstrated excellent courtesy to other road users including pedestrians and cyclists, and ‘spoken thought’ was demonstrated and was at a good standard. This was a very good run today and Olivier obtained a great F1RST result, so well done!

Olivier was delighted with the result and told us “I had my test last weekend, on a very sunny day with all sorts of road users out and about. I passed and retained my F1rst, which is great news. Thanks very much for all the support and observed runs from GAM in the build up to my test.”

Well done Olivier, from all of us at GAM. See you in three years’ time!
