Glen Innes – Lesson 3 Notes

Glen Innes – Lesson 3 Notes❌ Critical Errors to Avoid

• Gap Selection:
  Do not rush your turns. Choose safe gaps—if other vehicles have to slow down for you, it will result in loss of marks.
  
• Traffic Lights:
  You must stop at orange lights if it is safe to do so.
  
• Curbside Parking:
  When pulling over, indicate left and check your left blind spot before stopping.
  When moving out, indicate right and check your right blind spot.
  
• Blind Spot / Head Checks:
  Always indicate and check your blind spot before lane changes, merging, or entering turning bays.
  

✅ General Notes

• Roundabouts:
  Angle the car to match the road and centre island. Look for and use cover vehicles.
  
• Parallel Parking:
  Take your time—do not rush. Recheck your right side before moving out.
  
• Mirror Usage:
  Check your centre mirror every 10–15 seconds on straight roads.
  Always check your centre mirror before braking or slowing down.
  
• Right Turns:
  Move toward the centre before turning and avoid cutting corners.
  
• Indicating:
  Keep indicating while in turning-only bays. If it cancels, indicate again.
  
• Narrow Roads:
  Indicate when passing parked cars, avoid bottlenecks, and watch for oncoming vehicles.
