Zorluk: KolayJunctions and Intersections

You are driving along an urban road and intend to turn left into a minor side road ahead. In what order should you carry out the following actions to complete this turn safely?

  1. 1Check your interior mirror and left door mirror
  2. 2Apply the left indicator in good time
  3. 3Brake smoothly to reduce speed and select the appropriate gear
  4. 4Check the side road for crossing pedestrians before steering into the turn

Cevap

The correct sequence is: check interior and left door mirrors, signal left in good time, brake smoothly to reduce speed and select the correct gear, and finally check the side road for crossing pedestrians before steering into the turn.
The correct sequence follows the standard Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine. A driver must first check interior and left mirrors to assess hazards behind, signal left in good time to communicate intent, adjust speed and gear smoothly on approach, and perform final observations into the junction for pedestrians before committing to the turn.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Check the interior mirror and left door mirror.
You gain awareness of following traffic and any cyclists on your near side.
Observations must always precede signalling or changing speed to prevent sudden surprises for other road users.
2
Apply the left indicator clearly and in good time.
Road users ahead, behind, and in the side road are informed of your intentions.
A timely signal helps others anticipate your change of direction.
3
Brake smoothly and select the appropriate lower gear.
The car decelerates to a safe turning speed with the correct gear engaged for vehicle control.
Controlling speed and gear before the turn prevents coasting and allows quick stopping if needed.
4
Look into the side road for pedestrians or obstructions and steer to complete the turn.
The turn is executed cleanly without endangering vulnerable road users.
Under the Highway Code, drivers must give way to pedestrians who are crossing or waiting to cross into the junction.

Anahtar Kavram

Applying the Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine and observation priority when turning into junctions.
