History |
|
| The Motor Schools Association of Great
Britain (MSA) was formed on March 31, 1935, just before the driving test was
introduced. The association's principal aims, then as now, are to keep
members informed of any matters of interest to them, to represent the views of
members to Government, its departments and agencies, to provide services that
will be of benefit to members and to set standards of professional and ethical
behaviour for teachers of driving. |
