Synopsis

UK. In addition to being the only offical study guides for the police promotion examinations in England and Wales, and a recognised text for student police officers, the Manuals have quickly established themselves as the definitive reference sources for all who have involvement with police law and procedure. The Manuals have been written in consultation with police forces across England and Wales, and are endorsed by Centex, now known as the National Policing Improvement Agency, for OSPRE Part 1 Promotion Examinations. Blackstone's Police Manual Volume 3: Road Policing 2008 covers all aspects of road traffic law from a police officer's perspective. The 2008 edition has been fully updated and refined to incorporate all recent legislative developments, including those to the Road Safety Act 2006. Topical subjects covered include causing death by careless driving, use of mobile telephones and control of a vehicle, and alcohol ignition interlocks. This year, the Manuals have also undergone a full revision in order to make them more accessible, relvant, and focussed to the examination. The Manuals are widely used in the professional development of police officers in a variety of roles making them essential reading for anyone with an interest in police and criminal law. Whether you are a serving police officer or police trainer, a practitioner, advisor, or researcher, Blackstone's Police Manuals 2008 are an essential purchse. The other three titles in the series are: Volume 1: Crime, Volume 2: Evidence and Procedure 2008, Volume 4: General Police Duties 2008.
