Why this matters during your driving lessons
By recognising the situation early, you can act predictably and give yourself time to look properly. While practising, say out loud what you see, who has priority, and how much space you need.

Exam tip
Look far ahead, check your mirrors, and only make a decision once the whole situation is clear. Safe and controlled driving matters more than reacting quickly.
