Je slaat rechtsaf. Waar kijk je extra? – Rijmaatje

You turn right. Where do you look extra? Look calmly at the traffic situation and first choose A, B or C yourself.

A. Only ahead
B. Mirror and blind spot
C. Only left

The correct answer
B. Mirror and blind spot
Check for cyclists and mopeds next to you using your mirror and blind spot.

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

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