The Complete Driving Simulation for your PC

1. LEARN

Impress your instructor with your new knowledge!

This software has been developed in conjunction with a highly qualified driving instructor with 30 years' experience. Used together with real-life driving lessons, you will soon gain the confidence and knowledge you need to advance through your lessons to Driving Test standard.

No matter how many driving lessons you have taken, this invaluable training aid will help you to acquire and maintain the safe driving skills you need to ultimately pass your Practical Driving Test. Can you afford to be without it?

Easy to use - Follow 10 step-by-step learning modules, from the basics right through to more complex routines.
Learn at your own pace - Use the relevant modules before and after your real-life driving lessons, to help reinforce your drivingroutines and manoeuvres.
Comprehensive - Get professional advice on observation issues, safe driving practices and techniques, using a mixture of video tutorials and printable fact sheets.
Watch as a professional instructor guides you through over 130 video tutorials and over 20 printable fact sheets.

2. PRACTICE

Learn how to safely react to other road users
Learn the skills needed to deal with and react to different conditions
Works with most PC Steering Wheels

Interactive computer based training
Revise and refresh your driving skills with a virtual driving instructor. Sit behind the wheel of a realistic 3D car and experience unpredictable traffic and pedestrian movements, just like real life.

Each 3D lesson explores a different aspect of becoming a responsible road user. Your virtual driving instructor will give you a full debrief, as you practice under instruction, all the vital driving routines and manoeuvres that you may be asked to perform in your actual Driving Test.

3. PASS

Are you ready to pass your Driving Test?

View your Driver's Record to see if you have acquired the necessary experience to attempt a mock Driving Test. But be warned, it's as tough as the real thing! Identify any weaknesses before your actual Driving Test.

Essential revision for ALL learner drivers!

Practical Simulator won't replace essential on-the-road learning with your instructor, but it will provide you with a fully interactive training programme that guarantees the best mental preparation for your Test.

So how does it work? Practical Simulator is a computer-based training package containing 10 step-by-step modules that guide you through all the routines and manoeuvres you may be asked to perform during your Test. You can practice interactive 3D driving lessons as many times as you like, allowing you to focus on specific areas of weakness. When you're ready, there's even a virtual driving test to assess your readiness for the real thing.

Increase your chance of passing the Practical Test

Practical Simulator considerably enhances your own driving awareness and concentration. It will directly benefit real-life driving skills.

Remember there is no substitute for getting real driving experience with your Approved Driving Instructor. This software should be used to reinforce and refresh learning in between driving lessons.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Nice Idea, very flawed implementation.
Well, the idea was good. But so many short cuts and poor choices have been made in the 'game's development that the product is next to unusable. Problems indluce-
* On slow machines, the game speed is locked to the framerate so the game slows down to a crawl.
* The game auto-selects and in some cases, auto-changes gears for you. Thinking about gear changes is really important to learner drivers.
* No pedal support.
* If you make even a slight mistake in a practice session, ... Read More



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - DO NOT BUY THIS SOFTWARE!!!
This software is called Driving Test Success Practical Simulator however there is nothing PRACTICAL about it whatsoever.

Where do we start...? I bought this with a steering wheel and pedals so I could get the most realistic experience. When I opened up the software I then noticed the disclaimer: "please note that this software does not utilise pedals..." UH?!! WHY NOT?!! I find it hard to understand why a pretty simple function (one in almost every driving game) could not be programmed ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - driving test practical simulator
videos are great but the simulator is pretty poor.It's hard to control the car using the mouse and keyboard and the steering wheel will set you back more money.i should have sent it back to amazon as i feel that i have been ripped off with this product.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - good, helpful and only one bad point
i bought this software for myself as i am soon to start my lessons. I can honestly say that it is a great programe and very helpful. The video lessons and then being able to try it out yourself, whilst being guided throughout is so encouraging.

I would say however, that if you want it to work best, you need a very big RAM, i thought mine was big enough, but if it isn't, you can't always understand what the instructor is saying in the video's and sometimes it picks up on faults that you ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - very good
I think this simulator is very useful for people learning to drive - it's fairly realistic, although when you're driving the speed will say 25mph for instance and it feels like you're doing 10 mph. Apart from that it's great! It's got a smashing instructor and useful fact sheets. You don't need a computer game steering wheel, but you can use one as an option. Overall I think it's worth the money. Also, at the same time as learning you'll actualy find it enjoyable. It has all the controls you'd expect ... Read More
