Does the content really cover all I need to learn to pass the Learner’s and K53 Driver’s Licence Tests?

Yes it does. For the Learner’s Licence Test you’ll find a lot of material on the disk that is designed to make the learning process simple and relevant. The idea is for you to understand the concepts surrounding the Test and the questions that are being asked. Once you have an understanding of the topics you will find that you are able to answer the questions in the Test itself.

For the Driver’s Test nothing will replace actually practising the manoeuvres and driving in a real car. But the content on this disk will tell you what is important to know from a theoretical point of view, what your examiner is looking for and how the test is structured and marked. All the required manoeuvres are explained in detail together with many driving situations that you might encounter whilst driving. Prepare your practical training and your exam well by studying the material intended for the K53 Driving Licence Test.

There is additional content on the disk that is intended to help you become a safer driver. This information will assist you in understanding the concepts for safe driving, highlight how you can foresee and then avoid hazards that are developing on the road, and how you can minimise your cost of motoring in relation to insurance and the cost of buying and owning a car. (See below the additional FAQ items for more detailed explanations.)

What is the Hazard Awareness Skills section for?

The Hazard Awareness Skills section is designed to help you become a safer driver by you to learning to recognise developing hazards early on. By recognising hazards early on you will be able to take evasive action before the hazards materialise and thereby avoid dangerous situations on the road.

The section contains an explanation of the concept and includes video clips for you to observe and use the mouse button to interact with to so that you gain experience and learn about such hazards.

Why is there an additional features section?

Rules about right of way that are not covered by the requirements for the Learner’s Licence Test

Tips about vehicle maintenance, buying and insuring – designed to help you keep your vehicle in a good and safe working condition, as well as save money when it comes to buying and insuring your vehicle.
