| GENERAL TIPS
Drive slowly but not too slow. Going under 10kph on a long stretch loses points!
Imagine that you are driving in heavy traffic with bicycles and pedestrians all over the place.
Look behind before getting out the car.
Shut the door after getting out the car.
Pull your chin up to the steering wheel when checking crossroads. Especially at the obstructed one.
Look RIGHT, LEFT before every road crossing unless you are on the very wide road.
Before every crossing means at least 1 car length before.
Don't make an unnecessary stop, especially when turning a corner. Just go really slow.
Drive SMOOTHLY. No 90 degree turns. No sudden acceleration or stops. Glide through.
Don't hit the curb in S or Crank turns.
Keep left, even within a lane. (except over a diamond painted on the road. Go right over it.)
On short roads, when you're going to turn right, KEEP RIGHT because you dont have time to do the "Rear, side, signal,... rear, side, blindspot, move to the right" thing.
In T-junctions, go very NEAR the painted white triangle, but not over it.
Pull your chin up to the wheel to get a better view when the road is obstructed.
Dont indicate inside the z-crank
Before you Pull off
Before Pulling off to Start the test
This part is extremely important so take a deep breath to calm down and do it right.
Start at the back.
Check around the whole car for obstructions, dead bodies from the previous driver, glass bottles under the wheels etcetera.
From the back,? go to your left back onto the curb and walk around to the front. Check for traffic then step out into the road and get into the car.
Lock the door.
Check your seat. Pull forward or back and sit far back in yout seat. Knees should not be straight when brake is pushed. Elbows slightly bent.
Put on your seatbelt.
Check left mirror.
Check Rear mirror and adjust it even if it's perfect.
Check right mirror
Grab the gear. (to check its not broken)
Grab the handbrake. (to check that its up)
Indicate right. (Signal right)
Put your foot on the brake, gear in, handbrake down.
Check full 360 with your own eyes. That means look over your shoulder to your right, then the other way to your left.
Pulloff gently. |
