About RoSPA Advanced Drivers and Riders
To understand the origin of the Association we must go back into the immediate post World War 2 era when there was an increasing number of road accidents and very few facilities to do anything about the situation. One person who was inspired to attempt a solution was a lady called Louise Duncan who was on the Finchley Road Safety Committee. She formed, along with other people of like mind, the Finchley League of Safe Drivers in 1955. This organised lectures by the police and, together with some on-the-road training, eventually instituted a system of testing run by some of the police driving instructors from Hendon. The principle behind the League was the improvement of driving standards through spreading understanding of the police system of car control, already recognised in those days as the safest and most efficient method of driving a motor vehicle.
