It's up to the instructor who you go out with on the day, He could give you anything from parallel parking to what you said 3 point turn mate
Good Luck anyway

Good luck mate Keep your cool and you will be fine. Just remember to keep checking your mirrors and make it obvious that you're doing it.

@ j turn
its not called a 3 point turn anymore, its called a turn in the road so you can take as many goes as you want (obviously if your there for hours on end you aint passing ) good luck

Like there won't be a get out clause for them. Probs have to be over 25 and in a civil partnership with your 3rd cousin

Good luck love! Don't get too nervous, exagerate every time you look in the mirror and don't stall on a roundabout like I did, cutting off a lane!! Least I failed in style.

Good luck for tomorrow

I forgot to put the car in gear on my hill start and tried to pick away!! He passed me just the same, think the thought of maybe getting me back for a second test was too much for him

LOL. Wish they'd been that nice to me! I put it into third instead of first, went to pull away and stalled mid lane on the main roundabout in the town! Was ace Passed second time round though!
