Test Tip Of The Month For Ipswich

It’s common when turning left at a blind T-junction to look right and only look left when the car goes into a new road. You will often get away with this, but now and again, something will be there, like a parked car or a pedestrian about to walk out. On your test, you’ll fail, and in real life, you’ll have a severe accident. Be sure to do the minimum observations for T-junctions: right, left, right and then look into the road before you emerge into it!

Useful Driving Test Tip For Ipswich

You have a 1 in 4 chance of being asked to do the emergency stop. If you are asked to do this, the examiner will explain this to you when the car is stationary. You will most likely notice your examiner looking over their shoulder when the car is moving. This is to double-check it’s safe, so be ready. When they look over their shoulder, they are about to ask you to stop!

You will soon be mastering the town the centre as well roundabouts and dual carriageways on the A12 that edges the town, where the flow of traffic is faster and you need to increase your speed. Your instructor will also show you the popular local test routes and the challenging areas that you are likely to face on your driving test. They will carry out mock tests ahead of the big day so that you feel fully confident and prepared beforehand.

Rest assured your instructor will ensure that your lessons are tailored to you and that you progress at a pace you are happy with.
