.Reversing
round a corner
* Round corner
- Same preparation and observations when starting as a sharp corner.
* The point
of turn is reached when you can see the corner appearing in the left
rear window. At the apex of
the corner, pause again and check for traffic and pedestrians. Look
round !
* Use a marker
on the rear window to judge when to straighten the wheels. A fixed marker
could be the position
of the rear wiper on a hatchback, or a sticker on the bottom
of the rear window. When you have straightened, continue to run parallel
to the kerb looking directly behind you until asked to stop..
* If you get
into trouble, draw forward to the junction and correct your position
without starting from scratch. Remember if you have to correct,the situation
behind or at the junction ahead of you may change - check again
