Putting this one back on to help a couple of my pupils understand 🙂👇

Many of my pupils get confused with steering when it comes to reversing 🚗😕🤔

THE TIP I use with them....
Where do you want the back of the car to go?
Nod or point in that direction & then steer in that direction 🙂👌

Back of the car to the left 👈 = Steer to the left 👈

Back of car to the right 👉 = Steer to the right 👉

POSITIONING FOR RIGHT TURNS...
MAJOR TO MINOR (main rd to side rd)....

I see the wrong positioning for right turns all the time, "aah so what" you might say.

Just a little bit more of thought, planning & awareness for your position would help you to see what's there in the road you're going into & potentially avoid any incident/accident.

Think CLEAR THEN STEER ✅️

TIME LIMITS....⏰️

Putting a time limit on your driving journey (lessons) will only put pressure on you to want to pass quicker & possibly pass a test but not prepare you for AFTER your test.

✅️Driving is a SKILL FOR LIFE & you're in control of a killing machine, so surely understanding, gaining crucial knowledge & experience is more important ✅️ than ❌️'just wanting to pass a test'❌️

Once you've passed your test, keep wanting to improve your driving ✅️

Not everyone on the road drives safely......Be the one that is able to react in time to the ones that don't 👌

APPROACH TO JUNCTIONS/ROUNDABOUTS....

This is all about planning ahead on approach, not leaving it until the last second.

What's there?
How heavy is traffic?
Who is behind me?
Who is beside me?
Do I need to signal?
What lane/position?
What gear might I need?

All the above will help you to become a safer driver 👌

Tips for the TELL ME questions for your driving test....

When I go through these with my learners I always say....be animated with your answers because this is like giving yourself hints ✅️

If the question is about brakes, put your foot over the brake as you're explaining etc ✅️

If the question is about steering, hold the steering wheel & do the actions as you're explaining it ✅️

Don't just memorise them, understand them ✅️

TRAFFIC LIGHTS 🚦....

We know RED is stop.
We know GREEN is go (if safe to do so).

Many treat the AMBER traffic light as a gamble & speed up to get through it before it changes to RED, when in fact you should be preparing to stop unless you've already crossed the stop line or are too close to stop safely.

Don't be an 'AMBER gambler' ❌️
Be a 'Should of slowed when AMBER showed' ✅️

PRIORITY ON SOME ROADS....

We've all seen signs where priority is given either to us or to the oncoming traffic.
These are often on narrow roads & single-lane sections.

TYPES OF PRIORITY SIGNS:
*Give way to oncoming traffic = You must stop & wait for vehicles coming from the opposite direction to pass ✅️
*Priority over oncoming traffic = You have the right of way over oncoming traffic ✅️

BUT please remember....
UNDERSTAND priority but don't ASSUME priority 👌

DIFFERENCE BETWEEN POTENTIAL HAZARD & DEVELOPING HAZARD....

POTENTIAL HAZARD:
Something that isn't a danger right now but could develop into one.
Example: Pedestrian walking safely along pavement.

DEVELOPING HAZARD:
Something that would make you react, like changing your speed or direction.
Example: Pedestrian on pavement steps off the kerb into road.
