Q & A

  • Why is it important to signal in advance when making a turn?

  • What should a driver do if they're unsure about the right-of-way?

    -Drivers should assess the situation carefully; if it's their right-of-way, they can proceed safely, but if it's not, they should yield to the other driver or pedestrian.

  • What does it mean to turn into the appropriate lane?

    -Turning into the appropriate lane means choosing the correct lane that corresponds to the direction you're turning, which helps maintain smooth traffic flow.

  • How should a driver look while making a turn?

    -Drivers should look ahead in the turn to ensure a smooth maneuver while also checking their surroundings for any obstacles or pedestrians.

    -The three stages are: preparing to turn (keeping the wheel straight), during the turn (turning the wheel), and after the turn (straightening the wheel again).

  • When should a driver practice making turns?

    -A driver should practice making turns whenever their turns feel unsteady or if they're new to driving, ensuring they develop smooth techniques.

    -Maintaining a consistent, slower speed during a turn helps to ensure stability and control, preventing loss of traction or skidding.
