The turn in the road manoeuvre is particularly useful because you are likely to use it frequently when driving.
The turn in the road is no longer part of the practical driving test, but we still teach it because you will use it when driving.
Pull over at the side of the road
Choose a safe place to stop. Avoid parking over driveways, on sharp bends, or opposite a junction. Apply the handbrake, and select neutral.
Check your mirrors
Check your interior mirror, right mirror, and check your blind spot. You don't have to indicate, because the road should be clear.
Move off at walking pace
Steer as fast as possible to a right lock, maintaining walking pace. When nearing the opposite kerb, make one full turn to the left. This is to assist you in the next stage. Continue checking for traffic. Then stop the car.
Reverse
Ensure you have the bite point so that car does not roll forward onto the kerb. Look left, and look right, do this twice. If clear, move backward and steer to full left lock. Switch your observation points between the rear window, and checking for oncoming vehicles.
Check for kerb
At the halfway point, your priority is looking over your right shoulder to observe the kerb you are approaching. You don't want to mount the kerb. On approach, turn one full turn to the right. Again, this is for ease later. Apply the handbrake.
Move off
Select first gear, and ensure that both ways are clear of oncoming traffic. Move off, steering to the right. This will guide you back to the left hand side of the road.
