How To Do A 3 Point Turn

How to do a turn in the road (three point turn) driving lesson http://www.driving-school-beckenham.co.uk/turn-in-the-road.html

You will NOT be tested on this exercise for driving tests in England, Scotland and Wales.

In this video we will show you the easiest way how to do a turn in the road within three turns using forward and reverse gears, without hitting the kerb and whilst looking out for other road users. Making it driving test standard and safe.

Once the step-by-step tutorial of the 3 point turn is over we then recap and show you it once more exactly how it should be done. These driving test tips will hopefully help.

Basic instructions on how to do a turn a road (3 point turn):
In first gear. Check all around your car, including the blind spot. Once it's safe, start to drive forward and immediately steer full-lock (maximum) to the right. As you approach the kerb on the other side of the road then steer a little to the left (this will help for the reversing part). Make sure that you are observing around for other road users as you do this. Keep in mind that the camber of the road will affect the speed of your car.

Once you stop. Use your handbrake, change into reverse gear and observe all around your car (especially over your left shoulder out the back window). Stop if any other road user approaches you. Once it's safe and you have the biting point, release the handbrake and steer full-lock to the left. Observe around constantly. As you approach the kerb then steer right a little (this helps for the final going forward). Stop before touching the kerb, handbrake on and observe for others.

Once it's safe, in first gear, release handbrake and steer back round to the right.

Remember your reference points when to stop on the turn in the road. The first one will be when the right hand door mirror goes above the kerb. When you reverse the kerb will disappear in the right hand door pillar (these reference points can vary slightly).

Keep a look out for road users as you do the turn in the road. Make sure that you stop near a kerb if anyone approaches nearby.
