The Official DVSA Guide to Driving 2015: The Essential Skills

Postby LenWoodman55 » Mon Nov 02, 2015 12:13 pm

Has anyone read this yet? I'm waiting for a copy from Amazon. Any comments?

Very little is published here in Australia - compared to the past few years in the UK - John Lyon's Advanced Driving, The Old Stig's How to drive and Reg Local's Advanced and Performance Driving as well as Chris Gilbert's DVD series. Decades ago Frank Gardner wrote Drive and Survive (for AVIS).

It's probably because there isn't any advanced driving and no advanced drivers (except a few police instructors - some of whom went to Hendon) here so all we get is the government handbooks which are okay but nothing like as good the DVSA's products.

http://fleetworld.co.uk/news/2015/Oct/D ... 0434022242 Might be interesting.

As an aside, doing a quick search for that info threw up this:

www. dsabooks. co. uk
DSAbooks. co.uk and DSAbooks. com are online trading names for DeskTop Driving® Ltd

Sneaky . . . That said, their site is much easier to use than the Official TSO site.
Your 'standard' is how you drive alone, not how you drive during a test.
