There has been, for some time, a publication available with 'secrets the police don't want you to know'...'how to get away with speeding'..etc etc..

It's usually advertised in car mags and such like..The driver survival handbook is the cheesy title..

Has anybody bought the book? If so, what's it like...

It just sounds a bit of a con to me..(cynical old me..)

I strongly suspect it's not only bollocks, but bollocks relating to the American legal system, not ours...
