to be honest, ive never had any issues driving in Manchester, which is why i rate it as one of the better cities to drive in. Rustics advice is wise-Manchester isnt quite as bad as London or Birmingham, in terms of driving definsively, but yes, take that approach without driving like a dick, because if you drive like a learner, youl just end up in trouble or stuck behind a bus.

Let the chavs over take you if they want, take yoru time to get used to all that traffic and noise. Know your route, use that sat nav and you will piss it. I find the roads pretty good around the city, and of course Manchester is bang on in the middle of the motorway network so very easy to get yourself back on track when you leave (I assume youll be jumping on the M6?)

Just be aware of the police, who are very keen on the Manc ring road, and dont go messing with the white van man, they will just nick your wheels if you piss em off.
