Lesson Notes:
- Merging / Lane Changing / Turning Bays - Must indicate and always check blindspots. Don't move suddenly or brake for no reason. Indicate till all 4 wheels are in the other lane.
- Hand Position - Move your hands and make big turns when needed. Don't drop your hands when slowing down. Don't twist your hands.
- Keep Clear Zones - Avoid stopping on them. Look ahead. Don't stop across pedestrian crossings, block streets or entrances to car parks.
- Roundabouts - Must give way to cars on your right. Angle the car to the left and look for cover vehicles on your left. Alway indicate left before exiting.
- Roadworks - Posted 30km, you must slow down and stay at the posted speed limit.
- Speed Control / Notice Speed Signs - Don't rush and stay under the speed limit. Stay within 5km of the speed limit.
- Right Turns - Find the center of the road before turning, don't rush and don't cut the corners to turn.
- Left Turns - Check the bus / cycle lane before turning, the left blindspot and angle the car with the road. Be slow before turning and you must see 100meters on both sides.
- Parallel Parking - Indicate left and check the center mirror before stopping. Use the space behind you and recheck the right blindspot. Don't just use the camera, you must look behind you. Stop before the rear wheel hits the curb.
- Sharp Corners / Curved Roads / Blind Corners - Keep left and roll around. Cover your brake but don't brake hard. Find the center of the road and keep on your side. If you can't see around the corner, an oncoming vehicle can't see you.
