I'm a driving instructor and I mean it when I say that this book is outstanding and one of a kind. After reading it, drivers can begin to understand for the first time what to expect from their cars under a variety of traction conditions. Many people, without knowing it, regularly drive beyond the range of their own skills - usually because they've had a driver's license for a while and because they've been lucky. This confidence is false and when an emergency situation presents itself the streak usually comes to an end right then and there. Read Mr. Beedle's book and not only will you develop the kind of real driving skills that can be relied upon even in emergencies, but you'll have the tools to prevent some emergencies from ever happening to you. I plan to buy a copy for each of my friends and relatives, most of whom are "seasoned drivers." It's that good.

What I can say - one of the best books about driving I ever read. It should be read by anyone before going on the road, but it is even more helpful if you are an experienced driver. The more you drive the more you are convinced that the author is 100% right. The only problem it's only a book and you need practise too :)

This is a straight forward, to the point book about car control. It emphasizes the importance of those four round things that are the cars only contact with the road-the tires. Put down that cellular phone and coffee mug and read this book (not while driving). There a must read section in the book for SUV, minivan, and pickup truck drivers too.
