Roadcraft The Police Driver Handbook Philip Coyne Penny Mares Barbara MacDonald 8601300089317 Books Reviews
- Well organized in chapters, well written and covers everything needed by a driver. Each chapter starts with a brief description of it contest and ends with questions which help you to check your understanding of the subject. You are taught not only what to do but also why. It helps you to remember every advice and better understand your car. It covers eco driving, too but NETHER sacrifices safety for eco sake. Safety is the most important matter. Well executed navigation (ebook edition) helps you to get the desired information within a couple of seconds. It is good to read it from cover to cover for the first time and than keep as reference at hand in case of need.
- I have been teaching car control clinics at racetracks for 30 years, and bought this book [per recommendation] to see if the author had any information or approaches I had missed. Yes, a few. The book is straightforward and dry.
Few will read it for pleasure. I am considering how to incorporate this into my teaching. - This book functions as what most Americans would consider a Drivers Ed. text book. It is a very good one, but it is specific to the UK (which side of the road is driven on, signs, etc). It goes into much greater detail on the physics of a vehicle in motion then most texts of the sort would do, and does a good job of explaining this material. The book does not have any information relating to high speed or pursuit driving, and states that these are subjects best learned with an instructor. As a general text about driving it's a 5 star book, those looking for information about police driving (as I was) look else where such as Bob Bondurant on Police and Pursuit Driving.
- This book is a classic - written for highly qualified UK police drivers but a worthwhile, informative instruction guide for the rest of us / civilians.
- The best
- Easy to use. Also have the riders book. Excellent tips. Easy to read and understand. Great as part of the IAM riding.
- This book is the bible of driving.
- If you or your children, friends or family have a drivers license, do them (and all of us) a big favour and buy a few copies of this book. I first read it when I was 18 and would sum it up as "the easiest, quickest, surest, cheapest way to literally double your driving ability and safety virtually overnight".
It is practical, simple and easy to apply. I can't remember the exact figures but what attracted me to the original version was the dramatic reduction in road accidents that the London Metropolitan police experienced after developing this driver training program.
Do yourself and all road users a favour - read it (and then re-read it every so often).
