Your crazy virtual instructor
Review date: 2010-09-05 Rating: 6 out of 10
The DVD includes many mock theory tests, hazard perception tests, a practical walk-through, and software updates. Hopefully they will update the hazard videos..
The best thing about the theory section is that the narrator's voice has proven very effective at helping me to learn. For example, when reviewing mistakes, I can click on the question to hear it and then click the answer to hear that - this creates an association between question and answer that is difficult to forget. Unfortunately, the software has a road sign test that automatically speaks the wrong answers..
The hazard perception part of the dvd could be improved. It is a series of videos driven by "your crazy virtual instructor" (I don't know if he really exists or where they sourced the videos from). Several times, I have had the opinion that the greatest hazard on the road is the virtual instructor because he drives too close to other cars. In Test 16, Question 10 ("Cardiff 6.wmv") he drives through a red light..
I didn't use the practical part.

Success I hope!Review date: 2010-08-30 Rating: 10 out of 10This is not the first copy I have had of this CD. Unfortunately the first one got damaged but I had used it enough to know that I needed to get another. The theory questions are better than reading through the Highway code and the Hazard Perception bit is not too bad. All in all it was a good buy at a good price with good delivery.The best software on the marketReview date: 2010-08-28 Rating: 10 out of 10As a driving instructor, I recommend this product to anyone wishing to take the driving theory test.
A couple of problems... Does not work on a mac! The practical bit is a waste of time!!
The theory questions and Hazard perception parts are brilliant!ExcellentReview date: 2010-08-27 Rating: 10 out of 10Excellent has exact same questions as in the real thing and hazard perception part is good too. Fully recommend, guaranteed to pass after using thisIt helps a lotReview date: 2010-08-25 Rating: 10 out of 10The content and practices in this DVD are well orgnized. And the performance analysis helps a lot for efficiently strengthening the weak points of the user's driving knowledge. The videos of hazard perception are sometimes of terribly poor image quality, which made I fail to recognize the pedestrian or cyclist out of the dark background several times. But actually it also helps to make the real exam easier if you can survive with those tough videos in the DVD.
BTW: I passed the theory test on my 1st try with full score of multi-choice and 56 (out of 75) in hazard perception.
