I largely agree with the previous reviewers comments regarding Driving Test Practical - the virtual vehicle steers like a tank and the right turn at the roundabout is impossible - unfortunately, this is not the only bug making some sections impossible to complete. I also found the theory sections irritiating on occasion, since this is not what I bought the program for and as they form part of a section, they usually cannot be skipped.
It is cheap and some of the early sections are good on manouevres, especially where an external view is offered and the video clips are quite good. I have just started the motorway sections and these seem OK thus far.
Overall, its fine for the price as a reminder of some basics, but really the software company should have ensured all sections were possible to complete before release, as this merely ends up in frustration.

I fully agree with the review and also found that during some of the sections, when prompted to indicate in one direction, you had to indicate against the prompt (wrong direction so pointless) to complete the section.

<br>I also used the theory program and found this to be relatively useful and correct.
