On your test, if asked to perform the turn in the road (three point turn) manoevure the examiner will expect you to turn the car round:

  • safely, smoothly, under control,
  • making proper use of the accelerator, clutch, brakes and steering
  • without touching or mounting the curb

The examiner will also be looking to see that you:

  • show good observation and are aware of other road users
  • keep looking all around throughout the manoeuvre.

Remember: on your test you do not have to perform the turn in the road manoeuvre in just three turns.

Although you should aim to make as few turns as possible, on a narrow road you may need to take up to seven turns. So a three point turn can actually be a seven point turn.
