Reverse around a corner is not a particularly complicated manoeuvre, and the following guidance should be accomplished easily.
Reversing around a corner is no longer part of the practical driving test, but we still teach it because you will use it when driving.
Pull over
Pull over at a safe and convenient point before the corner.
Get in position
A good parking position is generally 6 inches from the kerb, but give yourself some extra room. Ensure the car and steering is straight.
Straight reverse
You will need to perform a straight reverse. You should make all round observations prior to moving off. Reverse until the straight kerb disappears from the view of your left hand mirror. This tells you the rear of your car is in line with the start of the corner.
Make further observations
Before beginning your turn, you should make all round observations. Situations can change quickly, so keep checking all around you.
Steer left around the corner
The amount of steer required varies according to how sharp the bend is. Use one full turn as a starting point. This may be sufficient, or you may have to make alterations to your steering depending on how your car is responding.
Keep an eye on those mirrors
Your car should be going very slowly throughout, giving you time to check your mirrors. You should aim to keep the kerb in your left mirror throughout your turn. If you lose sight of it, you will need to make a correction. You must react quickly to what is happening in your left mirror.
Straighten up
When the kerb is parallel with your car you will need to straight reverse to a safe point on the road. Then apply the handbrake and select neutral.
