PRICE: $19
FUN FACT: Roadcraft is used as the official handbook for advanced driving organizations around the world.
WHY COMPLEX IS CO-SIGNING IT: These days, auto makers seem to cram more and more electronic safety features into their cars. Features and systems that are supposed to ensure that, as a driver, your chances of getting into an accident are next to none. While having a car that can detect another car driving in your blind spot is useful, we think instead of better safety systems, the world needs better drivers. Today's Buy It Now can help you become a better driver. Roadcraft, the Police Driver's Handbook was written to be the official driving manual for police in the United Kingdom. But don't let that deter you. It contains a bunch of info that's, for some reason, left out of most American driving manuals. Stuff like car balance and car control, which they break into a four part system—Position, Speed, Gear and Acceleration—that can help you react to hazardous situations. Their underlying belief is that, "Your safety and that of other road users depends on your awareness of what is happening around you and your ability to control the position and speed of your vehicle relative to everything else on the road." In other words, if you know what you're doing, you won't need to depend on your car's computers to save your ass. CLICK HERE to BUY IT NOWfor $19 from Amazon.com
