The dsa official highway code book

[Dysheeky]

Hello, I've managed to source a highway code book and was told it was the 2007 edition, would this still be valid today? Haven't they updated it to a 2012 edition yet?

Doubt much has changed, but you can check the full highway code online.

Thanks I was told this but thought this just might have been their ploy to make a sale, I also just wanted to make sure I wasn't filling up my head with old signs as it could get confusing.
Whilst we're on the subject I've been told that the best driving book is the The Official DSA Guide to Driving: The Essential Skills. Is this true or are you aware of a better book? (I know you can see this all online but would prefer book version so i can read on my commute) :)

Ebay are offering The Highway Code, valid for 2012,
If you look closely at the cover it says, 'Revised 2007 edition'

Can't answer that question. but just checked and September 2007 is the last printed edition of the highway code, so looks like you have the latest edition.
