The SAS Driver's Survival Handbook (by John Wiseman, 1997)

 Hello everyone !!

Almost every family owns a car, and every year more vehicles are introduced on to roads which are already congested, adding to the danger and frustrations of motoring. Whether for commuting, shopping or dropping off school children, it is the very convenience of driving that makes it hazardous.

Following the format of his worldwide bestselling SAS SURVIVAL HANDBOOK, whose sales have topped one million copies, and applying the world-class techniques and philosophies of the SAS, its former Chief Survival Instructor, Lofty Wiseman, shows how a little forethought and common sense can make motoring both safe and pleasurable.

This book takes the reader through every area of the driving experience, from selecting and maintaining a car, planning a journey and carrying the right essentials to passenger safety and car security. In addition, it covers adverse driving conditions, breakdowns, defensive driving, accidents and first aid, long-distance driving, towing, driving off-road and abroad, and how to deal with road rage.
