DRIVING INSTRUCTION


(Everyone know how to drive the car on the lane/marking line, even if they attend 4/8 classes(2/4hrs). But here eligibility criteria is based on the safety and regulations / safe driving skills. If you follow the rules correctly then the driving license is all yours.)
So what my advice is follow the rule strictly and make sure that the instructor notices what you are doing.

  • Observing and scanning roads
  • Following sign board and respond accordingly
Be cool, Try to smile at the instructor or initiate a small talk.

The instructor will call your name. Once u entered the car check the follows:

Door is locked (no alarm signal).
Seat and steering position is right for you (Not be very close to the steering, you should be able to reach brakes and accelerator without leaning very forward).
Check and correct both side mirrors through windows and center mirror.
Fastened the seat belt.

Manage to drive within speed limit. Which helps you avoiding from the follows.

  • Hard brake while stopping.
  • Over speed while turning.
  • while stopping, Allow reasonable space in front of the car. (Note the back tire of the car standing in front).
  • Stop sign at T junction / Turning – Before turning, stop the car for 3 seconds to check the vehicles from left and right side.
  • From the ignition on to off – check/see the center mirror once in every 5 seconds and make sure that the instructor notices what you are doing.
  • See center mirror before apply break.
  • Drive the car in the center of the lane. (Otherwise, which they will refer as un-control steering).

  • Lane change - If any car's coming in that lane, don't change immediately.
First check rear view mirror, then side mirror.
If everything okay, put indicator.
Head check/shoulder check for blind spot.
rear view mirror again
Move your car to the next lane.
Even if the road is empty, the mirror check has to be done.
  • If you see any car stopped on your road, please put hazard lights to communicate to the car behind you that you have stopped.

  • 90 deg parking
See center mirror
Signal
Make car straight
Turn full right when the line reaches the lock (no early and no late)
Slowly move into the spot
Straight your steering
Apply parking gear 
Apply hand break
Open the door and check

  • Roundabout - Move in to roundabout- only when there is no traffic from left side

  • Parallel parking –
Make your car parallel to the front neighbor car
Take reverse
If u can see the light of the front neighbor car through your window then turn full right.
If you can see the two light of your next back neighbor car. Then straight your steering.
If the light your front neighbor car, once pass the left side mirror then turn full right.
Make it straight and stop once the back neighbor car light comes centre of your centre mirror.

  • When changing lanes don't turn suddenly or don't swerve.
  • Don't apply break when change lane
  • When left or right or U-turn, car should not touch the yellow line.
  • Not overtake or change lane in solid line
