Maybe your practical test? Feeling stressed or nervous about it? Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t worry, help is on hand from the DVSA. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve published a new book in partnership with Lisa Dorn, a leading psychologist in the field of driving behaviour.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcBetter Driving Guide\u00e2\u20ac\u2122 targets drivers looking to develop their skills in unfamiliar driving situations. If you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re about to book a theory test online or your practical exam, but you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re worried about road situations once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve passed, the book gives advice on how to handle complicated junctions, driving in bad weather and motorways.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Can the Better Driving Guide help learners with the theory test &amp; practical exam?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Book Theory Test Today says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Although the book is aimed at drivers who have passed a driving theory test and hold a driving licence, there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s no reason why a learner driver can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t benefit from the guide. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">After all, questions about motorways could appear on the theory test and it is possible that learners could end up driving in bad weather during lessons or even on their test, particularly in winter.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The DVSA\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s new book offers guidance on how to recognise road risks, avoid distractions and overcome stress and anxiety, guidance that aims to help motorists become more confident and therefore, safer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Lisa Dorn, author of the book, said: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Many experienced drivers face challenges, from a lack of confidence on motorways, to how to adapt to new technology, such as driving whilst following instructions from a sat-nav. Despite these challenges, few drivers actually take the time to rectify them, which can cause anxiety and stress, and make driving an unpleasant experience.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153This book will help address these issues, encouraging drivers to self-reflect, giving concrete advice and helping them to gain more confidence in their driving abilities,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booktheorytesttoday.com\/book\/skip\">Book Theory Test Today<\/a><\/strong> says: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153The book will no doubt come in useful for theory test and practical exams of the future, especially if it addresses the issue of driving while following instructions from a sat-nav. After all, practical exams featuring sat-navs are currently being piloted in Britain.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">DVSA chief driving examiner, Lesley Young, said: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Learning to drive doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t end with the driving test, and drivers who take part in continuous training and update their skills are more likely to be safe, confident and considerate.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">\u00e2\u20ac\u0153Awareness of their own tendencies behind the wheel, and how to counteract any negative behaviour, plays a major part in keeping drivers and their fellow road users safe,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she added.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Book a theory test online with us<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Book Theory Test Today offers an intermediary service assisting clients with booking a UK theory test, or practical test, at\u00c2\u00a0<a style=\"color: #000000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.booktheorytesttoday.com\/?page=find\"><strong>test centres<\/strong><\/a>\u00c2\u00a0across the nation.
