When you drive, it seems like there is nothing easier than turning: you signal, turn the wheel, and keep going. All drivers, experienced and new, make mistakes when they turn. However, new drivers, especially on their driving test, tend to make more mistakes which often cost them the entire test.
One mistake everyone makes when practicing driving is tight turns. On right turns, students sometimes don’t estimate well their distance from the curb and hit it. In most places, hitting a curb on the driving test is a critical error and a failure. On left turns, turning too tightly will make the driver enter a wrong lane, sometime with oncoming traffic. When it happens on the driving test, you can probably call the rest of the test “garbage time”.
Another problem drivers have with turning is the opposite of the above problem: wide turns. This is another serious one, since it makes driving students enter wrong lanes and possibly cause an accident. On right turns, a wide turn can get you into the second lane from the right which is often the lane of oncoming traffic. On left turns, this can mean a meeting of your car and the curb. Needless to say, this is not a wanted situation.
Two turning lanes are another failing factor for many examinees. They are used to moving to the leftmost or rightmost lane, and they forget how to behave with two turning lanes. The result is often an unpleasant mark on the score sheet.
Pedestrians are major test killers in almost every part of driving, and turns are no exceptions. Some students are so focused on making the turn well that they forget to check for pedestrians and often get “stuck” inside the intersection, block it, violate the law, and fail their test miserably.
Turns can be done perfectly if practiced well. All you need is an understanding instructor sitting near you on the passenger seat and a good guide showing you how to make the perfect turns.
