3 point turn

Date: March 2006
Test Centre: Ellesmere Port
Reason for fail: Serious fault, turn in road - observation


Michael pulled up on the left here, and the examiner asked him to turn the car around to face the other way.

Michael did it properly until just before he'd finished. He'd completed reversing, and got ready to move forward, but didn't check to see if it was clear to his left before he went. There could have been something coming, and the examiner had to give him a serious fault.

So if Michael had looked left he'd have passed his test?

In this case, apart from a handful of minor faults, that missed observation was the only thing he did wrong, and he would have passed if he'd taken a moment to look.
