Turn in the road ...

This manoeuvre is sometimes called the three-point-turn but this term might be a little misleading because your turn doesn’t have to be completed in three movements.

The number of moves required will depend upon the size and steering capabilities of your car, the width of the road and your driving skills.

You will be required to do this manoeuvre as part of your driving test; however, this is not our main reason for including it here ...

After you have passed your test, you will need the same skills in car parks, garages, tight driveways, petrol stations, and other situations. By becoming proficient at the turn-in-the-road you will be laying the foundation for all of your future 'tight space' manoeuvres.

 

This manoeuvre requires the same 'Observation, Control and Accuracy' that you have been learning about on earlier manoeuvres.
