Practical Driving Test Tips - Anticipation
Problem | Reason | Solution |
You drove too close to those pedestrians | Because you didn’t plan or anticipate what they might do | Check mirrors and steer slightly right to allow room in case they dash out into the road or step off the kerb |
You had to brake sharply | Because you didn’t expect the cyclist to move out | Plan ahead and expect the unexpected. Look for hazards ahead of cyclists that could cause them to swerve or wobble |
You were driving too fast for the conditions | Because you’re not anticipating what might be around the bend | Plan for the worst and be able to stop should the worst case scenario arise |
