5 out of 5 stars Includes the 19 new Show Me Tell Me questions   July 23, 2008
R. Hughes (England)
31 out of 31 found this review helpful

I'm an ADI and I bought this product yesterday from a local supplier. I always recommend Driving Test Success to my pupils as the best revision aid.

The good news:- as well as including the new Theory data update from the DSA, All tests also has all the new Show Me Tell Me questions which came into being on July 1st 2008. This latter point is important as there are now 19 Show Me Tell Me questions, not 13 like it wrongly says on the Amazon web page.

So there you have it, the best product for learner drivers is right up to date and as easy to use as before. Most importantly my pupils always pass using it so it comes heartily recommended by this instructor.



5 out of 5 stars Safe driving for life   August 24, 2008
James B. Spink (Kent, UK)
12 out of 12 found this review helpful

This DVD Rom has all the answers and, more importantly, all the questions needed to pass the UK Driving Test. It is a very reasonably priced package featuring an informative sleeve and the DVD Rom itself; there is no booklet or other printed information - everything is screen based. Most people these days are familiar with Computer Based Training and will find the presentation of this material pretty user friendly and intuitive. Although most users will probably be young anyone taking their test later in life will also find this programme fairly easy to master.

Some of the content, such as the latest edition of the Highway Code, is printable should a hard copy be required for studying. Also, some of the content can be transferred onto portable devices, such as iPods or mobile phones, for learning on the go. All aspects of the Driving Test are covered, Theory, Hazard Perception and Practical both for car drivers and motorcyclists.

It is fully up-to-date containing the very latest official DSA theory test question bank which can be printed out if required for revising away from the computer. It is the UKs best selling programme of its type, having sold 2.3 million copies in previous editions. Updates are also made available online.

There is a very comprehensive Product Description provided by Amazon which is well worth reading as it gives full information about what the package contains. Although it won't replace driving lessons this product will provide a very useful companion to anyone just starting out on what will hopefully be a lifetime of safe driving.



5 out of 5 stars Great refresher.   September 3, 2008

7 out of 7 found this review helpful

This CD is great, and not just for those who are yet to take their test.
It is a great refresher for anyone who may have passed their test many years ago, or for those that have passed, but still feel they need to know their road signs and highway code better.

This CD would also be great for those that feel their driving ability may not be quite what it should due to aging or ill health.

The CD has the theory test,
Hazard perception test,
Road sign test.
practical test and safe driver test.
It also contains the latest official highway code,
also a video of the latest mock driving test,
and a printable theory test book.

I believe every driver, or future driver, can gain some knowledge or insight from this CD, and throughly recommend it.



5 out of 5 stars A learner driver must have!   August 29, 2008
Mr. G. Bridgeman-clarke (Rayleigh UK)

First things first I have been driving for over 35 years so I am experienced, but I thought that if I reviewed the programme myself I could give a bit of a biased view so I volunteered my 16 year old, soon to learn to drive, daughter to review the software with me.

Driving Test Success was very easy to set up. Just put the DVD in the drive, and follow the installation instructions and away you go, just the way it should be and it was up and running within 10 minutes.

This product allows multiple users, so not just one person can use it, as you can set up lots of different accounts and usernames. I am 16 and new to driving I appreciated this DVD as it went from the very start of the driving process to the the test scenario. I have been using Driving Test Success for about a week now and I am really enjoying it. I have learnt lots and it is great to enjoy learning to drive at your own pace on your computer with no mega high driving instructor fees!!!

In the Driving Test Success there is the Theory Test, Hazard Perception Test and the Practical Test. In the Hazard Perception test you view a scenario and click your mouse when you perceive there is a hazard. Brilliant as the programme shows you where you when wrong in the test. This helps when you do the test again you can do much better and hopefully get full marks.

In the Theory Test, if you chose the wrong answers it will tell you and you can try to get the right answers again. If you do not understand why you where wrong it will give an explanation. Also on this PC DVD there is a feature called "learn on the go", this is where you can download some questions on to you Ipod or MP3 player. On the Ipod or MP3 player you hear someone ask you a question and give you time to think about the answer and then it will tell you what the answer is.

Other parts in the PC DVD contain a practical test where you can complete a mock driving test. At the end of this test it will advise you if you are ready to put in for your driving test and theory test and if you not, well they will tell you! In this practical test you will get an idea of what the examiner is looking for and what they will mark you on.

All in all educational and fun. Worth the cover price and essential for new drivers!



5 out of 5 stars All You Could Need (...for your Theory and Hazard Perception Test)   September 7, 2008

Prior to using this 2008/09 edition I had been using the previous version and without a shadow of a doubt I can say that this updated version is a much needed and welcome improvement. For one thing, it is aesthetically pleasing to look at which perhaps in the grand scheme of things is not that important but it is nice to get it right. Moving up the set of priorities is the way that this edition has set out its revision tests, in a way that one can accustom to their own revision technique without it being complicated, all the questions and answers needed to pass the UK Driving Test are included to encompass detailed revision to improve one's chances of passing as well as being laid out in easy chunks for all the information to sink in easily: the entire thing is user friendly and intuitive.

Most of the content can be transferred onto portable devices, such as your MP3 player for learning on the go as well as more (e.g. the Highway Code) being printable. All aspects of the Driving Test are covered, Theory and Hazard Perception, both for car drivers and motorcyclists so everything you could possibly need is here.

Furthermore, it also plots your progress as you go along so one can see how you are improving and what areas need improving. Therefore, all things considered this is an excellent tool to pass your theory and hazard perception tests.
