A year ago, my daughter took driver's education at the local public school. Two weeks ago she failed her first driving test. I fled to the interned to find some help, and The Rules of The Road DVD was the most impressive program I found. My daughter used the DVD, and just a few days ago, she recived her first Driver's license with a perfect score. Thank you!

This is simply wonderful. Consider this a must have before getting your driver's license. It cuts through the theory and instead shows the practical things.

It has very nice sections explaining how to drive as well as 3D illustrations where they show parallel parking etc. I really liked the ability to be able to watch at different angles etc. It is well worth the price. The only reason for 4 stars is that it misses 3 point turns but so does the state's driver's manual.

What a great idea! I bought this for my 15 year old who is counting the days until he can drive. He was enthralled; even started criticizing MY driving! He told me I should watch the 3-D parking segment. Make sure your kids watch this before they get in YOUR car to start practising. And it wouldn't hurt the adults in your household to review the information, too!

The production quality alone destroys everything else out there. It has all the content plus well-done special features. If you're looking for something that won't put your kids to sleep, this is it right here.

This was a birthday present to my daughter and it was quite a hit... pardon the pun.

I struggled with whether to give this 4 stars or 5. The user interface (UI) is a bit clunky, but the content and instruction is worth of the 5 stars.

The DVD tries to be interesting -- and it is interesting -- although it is borderline cheesey in the process. The important thing is the viewer won't bore easily with repetitive viewing which is important when you are getting something instructional like this.

At the end of sections, the DVD has a small quiz. That is a good idea, but the quizes are a little obvious and easy.

I guess the most appealing thing about this is it is easily increasing her abilities while she does what she does best: watch TV. That helps keep insurance costs down, I guess. ;-)

My daughter failed the test to get her driving permit. I bought her this DVD and she watched it one day and passed the driving permit test the next day. Much cheaper then drivers ed.

We went to church a couple of weeks ago and Jeff (my son) pulled into the parking spot perfectly the first time. In the past the parking lot had been a ten minute ordeal. He credited the Rules of the Road video for giving him a better understanding of when to turn and where to be.
He couldn't believe how easy it was after seeing the video. He actually told me I should watch it to have a better understanding of parking.

This program clearly has solid merit. It is very thorough and does the video does not seem like cheesey educational video stuff. Sometimes there's a few silly jokes, but nothing that would turn you away from the program. I was pleasantly surprised by the 3d illustrations -- thinking that they would be a really stupid gimick -- but they turned out to be quite useful.

and I have to admit that it's not half bad for a drivers ed video. The graphics are nice and all the information you're looking for is easy to find. The multiple choice question quizzes are easy, but not half bad for preparing for the test I suppose.

This product seems overwhelming at first with all the features, but you get the hang of it pretty quick. I liked the special features and I now know how to change a tire on my own.
