Car Driving Manoeuvres Explained
A minimum of one of the manoeuvres should be executed at some point during your driving test (the examiner can ask for more than one).
The following manoeuvre details are in relation to your Glencor driving school instructor's car.
If using a different car then some details i.e. references, might require slight altering.
Pull Up On The Right
Turn In The Road (Note: As of 4th December 2017 this manoeuvre is not required for the driving test. The examiner could still ask you to do this manoeuvre if you arrive at a blocked road and have to turn the car round).
Reverse Park (Parallel Park)
Left Reverse Into A Junction (Note: As of 4th December 2017 this manoeuvre is not required for the driving test).
Bay Park

Nicola Caines of Kilmarnock, Driving Lesson Testimonial
I would be more than happy to recommend Glencor Driving School. David was very patient and understanding, especially as I had to take a couple of long breaks due to ill health. He then got me back on track in no time at all, building up my confidence and skills again. A lesson is never wasted and used to its full, with a good mix of general driving and manoeuvres. Highly recommended!

Pull Up On The Right
The Pull Up On The Right Explained
For this manoeuvre you'll be asked to pull over on the right while you're on the move (driving).
When you pull over, you don't need to be fully in at a parked postion from the kerb on the right. Being 12 inches from the kerb is acceptable because you're not parking during this manoeuvre, you're simply pulling over.
Also, you can pull over in front of a driveway on the right, but this should be avoided where possible so as not to impede anyone who might want to use the driveway.
When pulling over on the right it's best to signal since you are moving over to the other side of the road. When you have pulled over the examiner will then ask you to reverse approximately two car lengths.

Dave is a fantastic driving instructor. Dave is professional but friendly, knowledgeable but patient and helpful; there really is never a stupid question. He is always up-beat and never got annoyed or angry when I made stupid mistakes, even when I did with myself. I would thoroughly recommend Dave if you are in the Ayrshire area and are looking to learn to drive, but more importantly, drive well. Thanks Dave.

Reversing
Before reversing, look round to your right shoulder blind spot, your right mirror, in front, then out the back window. If the road is clear or there are no other road users nearby on the right side of the road, then start reversing while looking out the back window. As your're reversing, look to the front several times and if another vehicle is approaching from the front then wait to allow them to pass (if they wait then continue to reverse). Also, while looking forward for other road users, have a quick look in your right door mirror to make sure you're correctly following the kerb while you're reversing. If other vehicles are passing from behind on the other side of the road while you're reversing, you should be safe to continue reversing as long as they remain fully over on the other side of the road. When you have completed two car lenghts, bring you're car to a stop and apply your handbrake. The examiner will now ask you to move off.
Joseph Graham of Kilwinning, Driving Lesson Testimonial
Dave is an amazing instructor. He is calm and helps nervous students stay relaxed. I was massively impressed with Dave's teaching techniques and his patience. With Dave's help and approachable manner I passed first time. I would more than just recommend Dave I would advise that he is a must for a great experience and a pass with true confidence and lasting driving ability.

Moving Off From The Right
You'll be moving over to the other side of the road therefore it's best to signal left before moving. You're moving to the left therefore look in front, left mirror, left shoulder blind spot then in front again. If it is safe then move off and over to the left side of the road. As you're moving off look again to you're left mirror, left shoulder blind spot then in front to make sure it is still safe to continue.

Turn In The Road Manoeuvre - 3 Point Turn Manoeuvre
Turn In The Road Explained
Note: As of 4th December 2017 this manoeuvre is not required for the driving test. The examiner could still ask you to do this manoeuvre if you arrive at a blocked road and have to turn the car round.
Before starting the manoeuvre, you will be parked at the side of the road, then asked to execute the turn in the road.
1st Pt
At the start, look around as you would when moving off. If the road is clear or there are no other road users nearby who are attempting to pass you, then move off very slowly and immediately steer full lock right, but once you're car is moving give another look to the right for other road users.
If it is safe, continue across the road and if you have enough space (and the full lock steering is complete) move a little brisker but slowing down as you approach the kerb and stopping your car so that the front of your car does not overhang the kerb but is approx 6 inch short of the kerb.
While you change into reverse gear you can now hold the car using either your foot brake or your parking brake but using the parking brake gives more control for moving again.

2nd Pt
Before reversing look right along the road, left along the road, then out the rear window. If the road is clear or there are no other road users nearby, move off very slowly and immediately steer full lock left while still looking out the back window, but once you're car is moving give another look to the right for other road users then out the back window again.
If it is safe, continue across the road and if you have enough space (and the full lock steering is complete) move a little brisker. When half way across the road, look over your right shoulder (or in your right door mirror) so as to judge stopping with the rear of your car not overhang the kerb but approx 6 inch short of the kerb.
While you change into 1st gear you can now hold the car using either your foot brake or your parking brake but using the parking brake gives more control for moving again.

Shanna Henry of Kilmarnock, Driving Lesson Testimonial
Would highly recommend Dave. After starting lessons and stopping due to pregnancy I was totally nervous and didn't think it would be possible as quick as it was that I would become confident but with Dave's patience (which he needed a lot of with me) and reassurance I very surprisingly passed very quickly after not having drove in 2 years at all.

3rd Pt
Before moving off look left along the road then right along the road for other road users.
If it is safe or there are no other road users nearby who are attempting to pass you, then move off slowly and immediately steer sufficiently to the right so as to end up on the left side of the road and continue on your journey.

If it is safe or there are no other road users nearby who are attempting to pass you, then move off slowly and immediately steer sufficiently to the right so as to end up on the left side of the road and continue on your journey.
The turn in the road does not always need to be three points. This is dependent on the width of the road, the vehicle used, etc.
Every time you are steering, keep the car very slow but the steering brisk.
On busy roads make more frequent observations all round for other road users. If, at any of the points, other road users are nearby or are approaching so as to pass you then you must wait and allow them to pass. If they wait, then you must continue with the manoeuvre.
At the 1st & 2nd pts you must go all the way across to approx 6 inch from the kerb. This will allow other road users to pass by, if they want to, while you are changing gear and preparing to move again.
Trisha Brown of Kilmarnock, Driving Lesson Testimonial
Thanks to David I feel confident driving. He is very clear when teaching, and even if you don't get it right the first time he is very patient. I found it very easy to discuss problems and David was really supportive especially when I got frustrated if I couldn't do something. Thanks very much, I really enjoyed learning to drive and would recommend you 100%. Also, his pass plus course is excellent and gave me more confidence in driving in new places.

Bay Park
Reverse Park Manoeuvre - Parallel Park Manoeuvre
Reverse Park (Parallel Park) Explained
The following procedure can be used for most cars but the references given herein are for your Glencor driving instructor's car. These references might need to be altered if using another car.
Before starting the manoeuvre, you will be parked at the side of the road before the parked vehicle that you will use to reverse in behind. After moving off safely to drive towards the start position, look in your rear view mirror. If there is a vehicle behind you then indicate left but continue into position making sure to stop at the 1st reference. You should be approx 2 foot out from the parked car.
Steering: - every time you are going to steer, keep your car moving very slowly but your steering very brisk. When you have completed the steering, and only if you have enough space, move your car a little brisker but slow down as you reach the next reference point for steering.
Tammy Johnstone of Irvine, Driving Lesson Testimonial
I would most definitely recommend Dave as a driving instructor. He is so calm and always in the nicest ways possible explains if you do something wrong. Such a lovely guy and I passed 1st time thanks to him. I was so nervous all the time but he made me calm and confident about driving.

Observations: - Look from right shoulder blind spot, right mirror, the road in front, then out the back window. If it is safe, then start reversing, while still looking out the back window. Note: You must not continue if other road users are going to be passing you. If they wait then you must continue.
Immediately when the car starts to move, steer full lock to the left. (Shown in the next diagram).

For never having even sat behind the wheel of a car before, I managed to pass my test first time with Dave. Very calm and reassuring but at the same time pushes you because he believes in you. Would recommend to anyone thanks again Dave

Observations: - Once you have completed steering full lock to the left look around (as above). If it is safe, then continue reversing to the 2nd reference (Shown in the next diagram), while mainly looking out the back window but checking now and then for the next reference.
Note: You must not continue if other road users are going to be passing you. If they wait then you must continue.
Note: In very busy streets you might have to look several times all round until you reach the 2nd reference.

Dave is one of the most patient people I have ever met. He was my 3rd driving instructor and I had zero confidence and was about to give up before going to Glencor. Dave understood and took time to build my confidence and explain everything clearly and I passed 1st time. Can't thank him enough!

On reaching the 2nd reference, steer back to the right so as to straighten your steering. With the wheels straight the car will now be coming in towards the kerb.
Observations: - You should now mainly look out the back window but look every now and then in the left door mirror for the 3rd reference. (Shown in the next diagram).
Note: You now do not need to wait while other road users pass on your right side, because the front of your car is now not moving out into the traffic.

As you reverse towards the kerb you should see, in your left door mirror, the kerb visually traveling down the mirror. There are two ways to visualise when it's time for the next turn of the steering wheel.
Observations: - You should still mainly look out the back window but every now and then look forward to a) make sure that the front of your car is not going to hit the other car (this could happen if your steering is insufficient or the references incorrect), and, b) gauge when your car is coming in to be parallel with the kerb. (Refer the next diagram).
- 1. A triangle can be seen in the left door mirror created by the side of the car, the kerb and the bottom of the mirror. When this triangle reaches a small size then steer full lock to the right.
- 2. When the bottom of the kerb reaches near to the bottom of your door mirror then steer full lock to the right.
Observations: - You should still mainly look out the back window but every now and then look forward to a) make sure that the front of your car is not going to hit the other car (this could happen if your steering is insufficient or the references incorrect), and, b) gauge when your car is coming in to be parallel with the kerb. (Refer the next diagram).
As your car almost reaches parallel with the kerb, steer left to straighten up your car wheels. By the time you have straightened your steering your car should be positioned as shown in the next diagram.
Your car should now be parallel with the kerb. Note: The car does not have to be parallel with the kerb but both the left wheels should be less than one foot from the kerb. Your car should also be within two car lengths of the vehicle in front, your car being one of the lengths i.e. one car length maximum (preferably less) between your front bumper and the nearest bumper of the vehicle you have reversed in behind.

Left Reverse Into A Junction Manoeuvre - Left Reverse Round A Corner Manoeuvre
Left Reverse Into A Junction Explained
Note: As of 4th December 2017 this manoeuvre is not required for the driving test.
Before starting the manoeuvre, you will be parked at the side of the road before the junction. After moving off safely to drive towards the start position, look in your main mirror to see if there is a vehicle behind you. If there is, then immediately on passing the centreline of the junction you are going to reverse into, indicate left but continue into position. You should be approx 1 foot out from the kerb and approx 2 car lengths beyond the junction.

Learning to drive with Glencor was absolutely brilliant, Dave never shouted at me or put me under a lot of pressure. Very relaxing driving lessons and a full hour of driving. If you are looking for a good instructor then David is definitely the best choice.

At start - Look right blind spot, right mirror, ahead then out the back window. If it is safe, then follow the kerb to the corner while still looking out the back window.
Note: If there are vehicles traveling towards you (on the other side of the road) from the front then make yourself aware of these vehicles as they might turn into the junction you are attempting to reverse into. You can continue reversing but if they are slowing down to turn into the junction then you should slow down and wait just as they approach the junction. Once they have turned in, you can continue reversing but before continuing look right blind spot, right mirror, ahead then out the back window for any other road users that you might need to wait for.
At corner - Look right blind spot, right mirror, ahead then out the back window. If it is safe, then steer left to follow the corner into the junction while mainly looking out the back window but now and then looking in your left door mirror to confirm your position to the kerb.
Note: due to the front of your vehicle moving out into the road when you start to steer you must not continue if there are vehicles passing you or pedestrians walking around your vehicle.
When parallel with new road - Steer briskly right to straighten your front wheels, and then follow the kerb back approx 4 car lengths.
Remember, you must be mainly looking out the back window and only glancing in your left door mirror every now and then to check your position with the kerb.
While on the corner section, look right blind spot, right mirror, and ahead more often if required e.g. a busy street, pedestrians nearby, other junctions nearby, etc. But again, remember to be looking mainly out the back window while reversing.
At any time while reversing, if another vehicle approaches from behind then you must wait when they are nearby and until they pass you or turn away from you or wait for you to continue. If, on the corner, a vehicle approaches close from behind then you might have to pull forward into the main road to give them space to turn at the junction, then once they are clear start reversing in again. Remember to do your observations before pulling forward and before reversing again.
Note: If there are vehicles traveling towards you (on the other side of the road) from the front then make yourself aware of these vehicles as they might turn into the junction you are attempting to reverse into.

Dave was (& is) an extremely professional, competent and reassuring instructor. Prior to Dave I had a number of driving lessons with another local instructor - I was not making the progress I expected. Dave was recommended to me from one of his ex-learner drivers and I am so glad I accepted his recommendation. I felt so much more competent and confident. In summary I absolutely recommend Dave to all learner drivers.

Dave (Glencor driving school) was recommended to me by my sister as she passed first time with Dave. After a few lessons it was clear Dave was a great choice of driving instructor as he made me feel relaxed and calm. Dave granted me a lot of freedom which I believe helped me be able to pass first time. Very flexible with lesson times and pick up points and very helpful instructor. Thanks a lot Dave.

To end up in between the lines as shown in the diagram you might need to adjust your steering while reversing into the bay. Your instructor will assist you in understanding these adjustments.
Note: If required, after you start reversing you are allowed to move forward to correct your car.
Note: If required, after you start reversing you are allowed to move forward to correct your car.
When driving forward into a bay, if the bay is on your right then keep your car to the left of the road, and if the bay is on your left then position your car to the right of the road. This positioning makes it easier to drive into the bay.
Position your car so that you are looking directly into the middle of the bay before the one you will drive into. Look for other road users and if it is safe steer full lock towards the bay as soon as your car begins to move.
