Takanini – Simulated Restricted Test Notes

Critical Errors

• Observation:
  More searching is required—turn your head, not just your eyes.
• Right Turns:
  Do not cut corners. Stay on your side of the road.
• Speed Control:
  Stay within the speed limit at all times.
• Lane Changing:
  Always check your blind spot before changing lanes.
• Stop Signs:
  Come to a complete stop, pause, check carefully, then move when safe.
• Left Turns:
  Slow down before turning and keep left throughout the turn.
• Parallel Parking:
  Indicate before stopping, check mirrors and blind spots before reversing, and use the space behind you properly.
• U-Turns:
  Indicate right and check your right blind spot before moving.
• Three-Point Turns:
  Indicate right and check your right blind spot on the third turn before moving.
• Turning Bays Only:
  Keep indicating while waiting and turning from the turning bay.

General Notes

• Railway Crossings:
  Check both directions before entering the clear zone and make sure there is enough space on the other side before crossing.
  
• Roundabouts:
  Check both sides and always indicate when exiting.
  
• Merging:
  Make smooth movements only—nothing sudden. Indicate and check your blind spot before merging.
  
• Blind Corners:
  Keep left and adjust your speed early.
  
• Narrow Roads:
  Drive according to the road conditions and keep left where possible.
