Customer Reviews

Invaluable for all drivers
Essential if you're about to embark on the UK theory test. Much easier to read than previous versons, no longer resembling a small chunk of legal documentation but becoming a clear and concise description of rules and advice for all drivers in the UK

Useful guide for all drivers.
You should buy this book. No question. Don't fall in to the trap of thinking that it's not for you just because you have been driving for years - thats' the sort of attitude that causes accidents! These things get updated you know. But whilst the presentation is first rate, there are some grey areas - this book simply lays out the rules, not how to put them in to practice. So I suggest you buy this book in addition to Driving: The Essential Skills, or Roadcraft.

Excellent practical advice
The highway code shines in clearly and simply supplying all the basic practical driving advice you need to start out on British roads, when it could so easily have become just a recital of the law.
