Driving test manoeuvres 2022.Tips and tricks.
Just the word manoeuvres can strike fear into most people who are learning to drive.
If you're one of those people then fear not. World Driving has put together some little hints and tips to help you improve.
You will have to carry out one reversing manoeuvre during the driving test out of forward bay parking (and reversing out), pulling up on the right-hand side of the road (and reversing 2 car lengths) and reverse bay parking. You won't know which manoeuvre the examiner will choose on your driving test, so make sure that you get confident at all of them. You might also have to carry out an emergency stop too.
To carry out the manoeuvres successfully you'll need good accuracy, control and observations. Remember to drive slowly and observe around a lot.
