Synopsis

ROAD NAVIGATION
Has your satnav ever sent you down a road you knew couldn't be right?
Perhaps it has taken you down a narrow lane, changed a route you deliberately selected, sent you into congestion or suggested a turning that simply didn't make sense.
Satnav is an extraordinarily useful tool. But following instructions is not the same as navigating.
Road Navigation: The Principles Explained shows how drivers can use satnav intelligently while retaining the judgement that still belongs behind the wheel.
The book is for drivers who want to understand the journey rather than simply follow directions - whether driving somewhere unfamiliar, dealing with rerouting and congestion or preparing to use satnav during the driving test.
Built around Six Principles of Road Navigation, the book explains how to:

• confirm your destination and route before setting off
• familiarise yourself with an unfamiliar journey
• use long-range observation to stay ahead of the satnav
• anticipate junctions and position in good time
• use short-range observation to confirm what the satnav is telling you
• make better judgements when traffic, rerouting or the road itself makes you question the suggested route.

The book considers common real-world navigation problems as well as modern satnav technology.
Whether you use a dedicated satnav, an in-car navigation system or a smartphone navigation app, the aim is the same: use the technology without surrendering the decision-making.
Satnav guides. The driver decides.
