Driving Procedures

Turning Right without stopping
Executing a right-hand turn while keeping the vehicle in motion (without coming to a complete stop) requires high levels of defensive scanning, smooth speed transitions, and precise lane positioning.
This maneuver is common at yielding intersections, traffic circles, or green lights where oncoming traffic is clear.

Following these steps
1. Check Mirrors, Check Left Blind Spot, Signal Right
The Action:Check your interior rearview mirror and right exterior mirror, check your left blind spot over your shoulder, and flick your indicator stalk down to signal right.

2. Check Mirrors
The Action: Perform a secondary check of your rearview and side mirrors.

3. Reduce Speed / Brake
The Action: Apply progressive and gentle pressure to the footbrake to begin bringing the vehicle down to an appropriate cornering speed.

4. Select Lower Gear
The Action: Depress the clutch pedal and shift down to an appropriate gear (typically 2nd gear for a flowing turn).

5. Continue Braking
The Action: Keep your foot lightly on the brake pedal if necessary to stabilize your entry speed as you approach the intersection.

6. Check Right Blind Spot
The Action: Turn your head over your right shoulder to check your right-hand side blind spot.

7. Position Vehicle to Immediate Left of the Centre Lane
The Action: Guide your vehicle smoothly toward the center line dividing the road, keeping your vehicle just to the left of it.

8. Check Mirrors
The Action: Re-verify your interior and side mirrors once more

9. Decelerate / Brake if Necessary
The Action: Adjust your entry speed one last time using the footbrake if the curve is tighter than anticipated or if vision is partially blocked.

10. Select a Lower Gear if Necessary
The Action: Shift down further (e.g., into 1st gear) if your speed drops drastically due to traffic conditions or intersection geometry.

11. Check for Traffic to Right and Left
The Action: Perform a wide visual sweep looking left, straight ahead, right, and left again across the cross-streets.

12. Check Right Blind Spot
The Action: Take a final, quick glance over your right shoulder immediately before turning the steering wheel.

13. Steer Round the Corner
The Action: Use the push-pull steering method to turn the wheel smoothly to the right, navigating the arc of the turn.

14. Steer into Appropriate Lane
The Action: Aim your vehicle cleanly into the designated receiving lane on the new road (typically the left-hand lane unless specified otherwise by road markings).

15. Accelerate as Necessary
The Action: As the steering wheel begins to straighten, gradually increase pressure on the accelerator pedal.

16. Cancel Signal
The Action: Check that your right indicator has switched off. If it remains active, manually cancel it.
