Obviously I cannot give you ALL of the answers here. So I would definitely have to recommend this book found here.
Here is some more steps to go over for the driving part:
1. Know your vehicle inside and out. Do not just take someone’s vehicle to try to write the test and get it over with. This usually ends up bad. Every vehicle drives differently and is designed differently. Make sure you know where everything is. (You do not want to get cause struggling to roll down the window if your instructor feels warm. You do not need to get nervous in silly situations like this so know your vehicle and keep your cool.
2. Back to the first question I gave out in my first post. Your hands: Make SURE you keep them both on the wheel (10 and 2). The first time I wrote my exam I completely forgot and drove out of the parking lot one handed. Make sure you do not lose points for a stupid mistake.
3. Stopping: Be sure you begin to slow down at a reasonable distance. You do not want to have to slam on your brakes at the last second, rather, you should comfortably stop at a nice distance from the vehicle in front of your own. This demonstrates safe driving in that it allows you to get out of the way if people behind you cannot stop or if you need to move for another reason.
4. Turning: Make sure your turns are smooth. Slow down ahead of time before the turn comes up and then speed back up through your turn. Also remember that if you are waiting to turn left on a green light and it turns red, as long as you have passed the cross walk you can go.
5. Last but not least: The parallel park. The difficulty of parallel parking is well over-rated. I will give you step by step instructions on how to pull off a FLAWLESS parallel park.
1. Pull up bumper to bumper with the vehicle you are parking behind. You want to be about a foot away from said vehicle.
2. Reverse for a little bit (about a foot or two) and then crank the while ALL the way to the right until you come to a 45 degree angle.
3. Now you want to straighten up and reverse until you are about half a foot from the curb.
4. Now crank the wheel ALL the way to the left.
5. Adjust by going forward or backward.
6. If you are on a hill make sure you know what to do.
7. Last but not least, put it in park! (A lot of people forget this step).
8. Apply the hand brake.
You are all done!
Congratulations!
Thanks for reading and good luck with your travels,
Brad
