You are driving along a main road and intend to turn left into a side road where pedestrians are waiting to cross. In what sequence should you carry out these actions according to the Highway Code?
- 1Check your interior and left door mirrors for cyclists and following vehicles.
- 2Signal your intention to turn left in good time.
- 3Brake progressively and position your vehicle appropriately to the left of your lane.
- 4Give way to pedestrians who are waiting to cross or already crossing the mouth of the junction.
- 5Turn smoothly into the side road once the way is clear and cancel your signal.
Cevap
First check interior and left mirrors, then signal left in good time, adjust speed and lane positioning, give way to pedestrians at the junction mouth, and finally complete the turn into the side road.
Safe driving requires strict adherence to the Mirrors-Signal-Manoeuvre (Position, Speed, Look) routine in combination with the Highway Code hierarchy of road users. You must first check your interior and nearside door mirrors to identify any following vehicles or filtering cyclists. Next, apply a clear left signal in good time. Following the signal, reduce your speed smoothly and position the car correctly near the left kerb. Before turning, observe the junction mouth and give way to pedestrians crossing or waiting to cross as required by Rule H2. Once clear, complete the turn smoothly and ensure your indicator cancels.
