A handbook for drivers, prepared in Sinhala by Lionel Warusavithana and W.A.D. Weeraratne and published by M. D. Gunasena & Co. of Colombo. The whole text is in Sinhala, with no English edition or parallel translation, so it will be of practical use only to readers who read the language.
The book sets out the rules and the instructions that apply to driving a vehicle safely — driving in a way that keeps everyone else using the road safe as well, and without anxiety or uncertainty at the wheel. The material is put plainly. The stated aim is that anyone, whatever their background or level of schooling, can read it and follow it without difficulty, and the explanations are pitched accordingly rather than written for a specialist reader.
It is a reference of the kind kept by learner drivers working towards a licence, by drivers who want the rules set down clearly in one place, and by instructors teaching in Sinhala. M. D. Gunasena is a long-established Colombo publisher issuing educational and general titles in Sinhala and English.
