The Irish Drivers Education Association (I.D.E.A) are pleased to announce the launch of the new "Steer Clear Driving Skills Manual & Logbook" incorporating driving lesson plans, mentors guide and practice sessions. This book provides Irish learner drivers with a clear structure for learning to drive. The mentors section gives parents the information and guidance needed to accompany the learner and be an effective mentor.
"A state of the art, comprehensive and beautifully illustrated manual, it should prove of immense value to novice drivers, instructors and mentors alike and make a significant contribution to safety on our roads." Ray Fuller, professor of Psychology, Trinity College Dublin
"Learning to drive is no longer just a personal ambition for most youngsters; it is a deadly serious life-changing event. If driving attitudes and skills are learned well, in time they will gain the necessary experience for a long, safe driving life. This book will help them gain that experience, safely." Professor Peter Russell, Professor of Road Safety Research & Education, THE DRIVER EDUCATION RESEARCH FOUNDATION, United Kingdom
"When it comes to learning to drive or to accompanying learner drivers, no need to panic, you've just found the book that has every thing you need!
This book will assist anyone on a learners permit (provisional licence) who from the 1st of July is required by law to be accompanied at all times.
It contains 10 comprehensive driving lessons to be delivered by an ADI (Approved Driving Instructor), 10 structured practice sessions and a log to record all learning. The mentors guide will provide a better environment for the learner and the mentor, eliminating possible tension in the car and providing valuable advice and guidance for the mentor.
The Steer Clear Driving Skills Manual and logbook is the only book of its kind written and produced for Irish drivers using Irish rules of the road, signage and regulations. It uses a 3-in-1 format to provide for all the learner drivers needs in one book.
To celebrate the launch of our new manual we've teamed up with some big names in the motor industry for a great prize giveaway on several national radio stations. Prizes include:
