The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents (RoSPA) has appointed a former police officer Andy Nixon as its new chief examiner for its advanced driving and motorcycling courses.
Nixon first joined the safety charity in 2013 as an examiner after retiring from West Midlands Police in 2010.
His policing career also saw him become a qualified advanced grade one motorcyclist, an advanced grade one driver, and advanced City & Guilds qualified in vehicle examination for everything from mopeds to light commercial vehicles.
In Nixon's final three years with the force he was also the deputy chairman of the West Midlands Police Federation.
Nixon became involved with RoSPA after a chance meeting with his predecessor, and also former chief superintendant, Bob Smalley, which led him to become first an examiner, and then senior examiner for the West Midlands.
Those drivers taking RoSPA's advanced driving and motorcycling qualifications receive free preparation for their tests through the RoSPA Advanced Drivers and Riders (RoADAR) network of more than 60 local groups and, to maintain high standards, tests are retaken every three years.
