About Us

DeskTop Driving was established in November 1995, shortly before the implementation of the Theory Test. Our aim was to disseminate road safety products to as many people as possible at the best price possible to encourage and promote road safety for the benefit of all, and it still very much is today.

Just five years later, DeskTop Driving Ltd became the UK's No. 1 supplier of driver training products, supplying items such as Driving Manuals, Highway Codes, Theory Test books, Official DSA Exam Papers, videos, CD-ROM's, training manuals, road sign quizzes, Magnetic Signs and roof signs to driving schools, training establishments, schools and colleges, police forces, County and District Councils, the Armed Forces and many more organisations.

We carry large stocks of the most widely used publications and are usually able to offer a fast turnaround from the placement of your order to delivery.

Does Tesco buy it's stock from Sainsbury's

Does BP buy it's petrol from Shell

Do BSM buy books from the AA

Of course not, so as a driving school or ADI training establishment why would you buy from your competitor's ?

We are a totally independent company and unlike some of our competitors we have no affiliation to any training establishment or Ordit registered company and do not operate a driving school.

WE SUPPLY OUR CUSTOMERS - WE DO NOT COMPETE IN THE SAME MARKET AS THEM

You are therefore assured of a completely confidential service and are safe in the knowledge that your business remains just that, YOUR BUSINESS.

If you or your organisation already order from us, you can be sure you are getting the best prices!
If you don't, we look forward to welcoming you soon.

Bullet Question:
I have found a product cheaper elsewhere will you price match?
