Zorluk: KolayJunctions and Intersections

You are driving along a residential street and intend to turn left at an upcoming T-junction. In what sequence should you carry out the following actions according to the standard Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine?

  1. 1Check your interior mirror and left door mirror.
  2. 2Apply your left indicator signal in good time.
  3. 3Maintain correct road position and brake smoothly to reduce speed.
  4. 4Look right, left, and right again before completing the turn.

Cevap

The correct sequence follows the Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM/PSL) routine: First check the interior and left door mirrors, then apply the left indicator signal in good time, next adjust position and reduce speed, and finally look in all directions before completing the turn.
The UK Highway Code requires drivers to apply the Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre (MSM) routine on approach to every junction. Checking mirrors first ensures you know what is around you; signalling communicates your intention; adjusting position and speed prepares the vehicle; and observing thoroughly at the junction ensures it is safe to proceed.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Check the interior mirror and the left door mirror.
You obtain an up-to-date awareness of any vehicles, cyclists, or motorcyclists behind or beside you.
Observations must always precede any signal or change of speed/direction.
2
Indicate left clearly and in good time.
Following and oncoming road users are given sufficient notice of your intended turn.
Clear communication helps prevent conflicts and gives other drivers time to react.
3
Adopt the correct lane position and decelerate smoothly.
Your vehicle slows down safely and is correctly aligned for the corner.
Reducing speed and selecting the appropriate gear ensures full vehicle control before entering the junction.
4
Perform final observations (Look) and complete the turn.
You enter the new road safely without impeding priority traffic or pedestrians crossing the mouth of the junction.
The final check confirms the path is completely clear before completing the manoeuvre.
