I have been learning Chinese for a few months using a mobile app and wanted to continue learning on my 90 minute drive to and from work everyday.
This audio book provide a lots of content for a reasonable price and was designed for use while driving as per the title.
After the first chapter it became clear the author had never tried his audio book out in the car for appropriateness. While driving and listening to an audio book, your attention is split between the two tasks. For this reason what your memory can recall is less. The audio book will say a word or phrase in Chinese, then you must repeat it. A sentence of 5 or 6 words is OK and can be recalled and repeated. A sentence of 12 words or more is near impossible to recall while driving - especially when it is in a different language.

This seems to be widespread throughout the audio book which is very disappointing. I have used other language audio books designed for the car which keeps things simple and more appropriate and shows it can be done.

Use at home - not in the car.

The course asks you to stop the course to pronounce words and to repeat lessons several times before moving on. I can't do this while I drive!!!! Maybe someone can, but I can't both be driving AND navigating around in an audio book.
