Product Description
Product Description
The only official guide which explains the standards required to pass today's practical driving test. Most people fail their driving test because they are not prepared. This book will help the learner and the person that pays for driving lessons by explaining the standard required for each key skill examined within the driving test. The aim is to make sure that the learner is capable of driving safely and confidently, without prompting from an instructor before they take their test. This latest edition includes references to The Official Highway Code and includes the 24 key driving skills you will be tested on with a full explanation of the standard you need to reach in each key skill to pass the test. There are also tips from the experts and explanations on what the examiner is looking for during your test as well as a feature to Win a Car.

Pretty dissapointed with this one. Goes on for pages and pages yet says very little. In fact mostly it just hints at other books on the DSA's list making you feel just a little ripped off. Sure, there is some detail on what you need to know to complete your competancy skills and what they mean, but not how to acheive the standard described. In fact it's more like an overlong pamplet you may get out of a doctors, road safety fair etc. My advice is if you can borrow it or read in your local library it's worth a quick glimpse (which would get you through half the book) but if you really want to learn about even the basic driving skills go for the Essential driving skills book instead and save yourself some money.

Not the best book for Theory Test. Use" Driving The Essential Skills" instead, it's the best on the market and is a Drivers Bible. Published by the DSA.
