MIND HOW YOU GO!
"Every now and again a book comes along that is unique and, at the same time, informative, practical, witty, thought provoking and potentially life saving. This book fits this description."
- Dr Fran Walsh, Bolton Wanderers FC
Mind How You Go is a driving manual like no other. Offering advice rather than instructions, a philosophy rather than a rulebook, the self-proclaimed 'thinker's guide to a safer drive' is set to be the driver's ultimate companion.
Written with the aim to change the mind-set of all those who sit behind a steering wheel, this is an absolute must-read for drivers of all ages. Based on VIP-protection driving techniques, Mind How You Go offers invaluable advice on how to:
- be an aware driver
- be a good example to other road users
- reduce your stress levels
and
- stay healthy and alive
An eye-opening read for those learning to drive, those teaching to drive - and even just those who drive!
