Motorways, An Essential Guide to Driving on the Motorway

By Debbie Brewer

Driving on the motorway for the first time can be particularly daunting. Traffic is moving at a much faster rate, so things can change very quickly, and for a new driver, that can be quite scary.
Even for an experienced driver, some motorway situations can be very challenging, and updating your knowledge is always a wise idea.
It is essential to have a sound understanding of the rules of the motorway so that you can keep yourself and other road users safe at all times, and this little book is designed to give you that extra confidence and knowledge that you will need.

Debbie Brewer has been a Grade A DVSA Approved Driving Instructor for several years. She has also been a qualified Ordit and Fleet Instructor. She is a member of the Institute of Advanced Motorists and has achieved RoSPA Gold.

This book is also extremely handy for driving instructors planning to teach motorways, or use motorways as a teaching subject on their standards check.
