First published in 1952, it’s obvious that even then there was a growing concern for the amount of road deaths.  This book sets out clearly and comprehensively the chief causes of road accidents: speed, DUI, failure to observe rules, faults and many others – and gives sound advice on how to avoid them.  Also included are sections on parking, heavy vehicles, motorcycles, bicycles and pedestrians. Nothing much has changed since this book’s publication in 1952. The only thing needed to bring this book up to date is a section on switching off mobile phones while driving!
