Many of these rules are legal requirements and must be adhered to, in order to avoid penalty fines, penalty points, disqualification or even prison.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serious value for money, 24 Jun 2008
By T. Manwaring "beyond driving" (Lancashire) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As has been mentioned - all drivers should have a copy of this book as it lays out very simply exactly what you should and shouldn't do in most situations on the road.
So many of us drive, ride or use the roads and we need to understand the ground rules - for less than the price of a pint, you can use it to dazzle your team-mates in pub quizzes, or settle those perennial arguements (what is the speed limit for a van on a dual carraigeway anyway?).
It's an absolute bargain - so if you find yourself frustrated by modern road designs and signs, or get confused by how to deal with some of the strange new junctions - get a copy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for ALL DRIVERS!!!, 29 Oct 2007
By Mr. Mark Lake "The Photographer" (UK, London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
It is evident that most drivers on the road either have lost the ability to read, or they're completely ignorant and simply cannot be bothered to be knowledgeable of the current rules and laws of the roads and road safety. Just for learners indeed! RUBBISH! If drivers simply took the time to have a look through this simple guide, people would be aware of the simple things such as when you can and cannot use a bus lane, and which lane you are supposed to be in when using a roundabout, and the list goes on.

I simply believe that ALL drivers should have a copy of The Highway Code and be up to date with road safety and the laws. Then some of these pretty pictures on grey poles on the sides of roads may actually make sense to the dim witted behind the wheel, and no longer wonder why they get nasty looks and unsociable hand signals from other drivers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Is what it says on the tin., 29 Nov 2008
By Mr. A. M. HOGG "MORS VINCIT OMNIA" (London, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
"The Official Highway Code", virtually essential material for learner drivers.

Is worth having the up to date edition. Do not settle for out of date cheaper version of last years lot.

However, for complete material would suggest The Official DSA Guide to Hazard Perception that includes the full Theory Test materials (incl. Hazard Perception). Also includes DVD for interactive options.

2.0 out of 5 stars Not really worth it if you buy a copy of the book.
I was pretty disappointing with this.
It's just a web page on a CD with the highway code on. It's a little slow loading too and has no hazard perception stuff with it. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Reliable guide to Passing the Theory Test
I read this twice over and scored 50 out of 50 in the theory test. I would say this book alone is enough, but if you want to further confident, do take a few mock tests available... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Not bad
My daughter, who has dyslexia, was learning to drive. I thought this would be heplful for her but she found it a bit muddling. Other people without dyslexia might like it better.

5.0 out of 5 stars wow! a page turner.
This is certainly a pacy read. The characters are well-drawn and the background - a road trip of some kind, though the author is careful to keep details vague - is convincing... Read more

This is a good book to have if you're learning to drive and as others have said it keeps drivers up to date on the ever expanding rules regulation of the road.
