Learn To Drive

People still get this wrong.

If you’re going straight at a roundabout, don’t signal before you enter. Signal left when passing the exit before the one you’re taking.

Here’s the answer to yesterday’s video. You can legally drive over a solid white centre line or yellow no passing lines to turn right into a driveway, provided it is safe to do so.

Which of these right turns is legal? A...B...C...
This one catches a lot of drivers out. No Googling. Just comment your answer. I’ll post the answer tomorrow.

Melbourne, I need your help!
I’m heading across the Tasman this month and I’m looking for recommendations for driving lessons or motorcycle training. I’m also looking for fun and scenic motorcycle riding routes around Melbourne.
I’m not looking for a free lesson. I’m happy to pay.

I’m really keen to upskill and learn from other instructors, see how things are done in Australia, and bring a few new ideas back to New Zealand.
Tag your recommendations below. Thanks!

This is how you signal for 3 seconds!

If you’re learning to drive, this simple technique will help you know exactly when to turn your indicator on and what a proper 3 second signal looks and sounds like.

Watch until the end for a bonus tip about cutting corners when turning.

What do we need to do to pass another vehicle safely?

Passing another vehicle is one of the highest-risk manoeuvres you’ll make while driving.

Watch the video, rate the passing manoeuvre out of 10 and let us know why in the comments. We’d love to hear what you notice before we share our thoughts.

👀 One of the most common mistakes I see is drivers flicking their eyes at the mirror instead of actually looking.

Observation is one of the key assessable tasks during your practical driving test. If you fail to make effective observations, including checking your mirrors when required, you could receive a critical error.

A good mirror check gathers information, not just the feeling that you’ve looked.

When turning right from a two-way street into a one-way street with two lanes, which lane must you turn into?
🅰️ Lane A
🅱️ Lane B
