I bought one a few years ago (c1996, i presume that the latest edition has been updated).

Prolly not worth GBP20, but an interesting read nevertheless. However, don't just buy it to get around the law - plod is far better at it than you, so you will end up worse off!

....a couple of quid cheaper is "The Traffic Officer's Companion" - ISBN 085164 083 4 - more official and easy to read.

Then there is "A Business Driver's Survival Handbook", ISBN 1-898206-00-7, although i don't know whether it is still in print (mine is dated 1993).

I had a copy of the "drivers survival handbook". Was useful at the time (pre-explosion of the WWW). Probably not much in there that you can't get from the UK Speedtraps or the Speedtrap Bible websites.

To all thinking of purchasing this publication, they take your money to teach you to use common sense, take it from one who knows from the other side !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
