Brush hour

I am approaching 70, still alert, etc., but I would like to find an easy
way to have an independent assessment of my driving. I want to find out if my driving style is safe and sensible, rather than if I would pass the test again. The IAM seems a very complicated (and expensive) way to achieve this. I considered a "lesson" with a registered Driving Instructor as an option but I would welcome any suggestions that you have before I go any further.

No, it isn't complicated at all. Drivecheck55 is what you need. It costs a mere £35. Visit: www.iam.org.uk/drivecheck55
