Anyone preparing to take the required written exam before putting in for a
driving test would do well to investigate
Driving Test Success Theory 2003/2004. The CD-ROM includes every question in the official DSA
Driving Theory Test Question Bank--over 1,000 of them--and a host of useful extras. The main menu is divided into four sections. From here you can either learn some Highway Code theory, take an exam, run the included bonus "Hazard Perception" CD-ROM (this is now an important part of the theory exam) or look up something in the Highway Code. If you click on the "Learn Some Theory" option, you'll be taken straight to the learning module where there are 20 untimed multiple choice questions. You can click on the answers and plough on through, but if you get stuck there's a Hint button that will help you out, as well as a Highway Code button which will take you straight to the relevant section of the Code where you can find out more; if you get the answer wrong, click the "Why" button and the program will deliver the correct answer along with an explanation. Clicking the "Take an Exam" heading takes you straight to a 35-question, timed test which mimics the actual written exam. Taken together these sections encourage you to brush up on your overall knowledge and provide some useful practice for the test. Under the Information menu you'll find an electronic version of the Highway Code and a whole bunch of other extras including "Show Me, Tell Me", a new part of the practical
driving test that assesses your ability to keep your vehicle in a roadworthy condition. This is particularly useful if you're a mechanical duffer and covers basic maintenance such as changing a wheel (it even explains where to find the spare wheel), checking your brake fluid, bump starting, changing a fuse and so on. You'll also find a list of local test centres,
driving schools--this is less useful, Wales only has two listed--and a handy Motoring Information section that includes contact details for accessory suppliers, car makers, rental companies, insurance, government agencies, motoring organisations and so on. The addition of a "taster" CD-ROM containing 50 video clips in the style of those used in the new Hazard Perception test makes this a comprehensive aid to passing your test. --Rob Beattie
