What steps to take when doing a three-point turn
When approaching a suitable street to do a three-point turn, the first thing we should do is check our rear vision mirror, so we are aware of what’s behind us. We will do this well before we come to our stop. Indicate to the left. Once stopped, we check our mirrors and blind spot, and we indicate to the right. We do a 360-degree check to make sure we are well aware of what is all around us. When it’s safe we slowly move off, turning the wheel fully clockwise. We keep checking all around and we move as close to the curb on the other side of the road as possible. Once stopped, we put the car in reverse, we can indicate left but it's optional. Start moving slowly, locking the wheel fully anticlockwise, and keep checking all around us. We move as close to the curb as possible. Once stopped we put the car in drive and indicate to the right, we start moving off turning the steering wheel clockwise, checking all around us. We look well ahead of us to see what’s happening around us, and once it’s safe we check the rear vision mirror so we know what’s behind us.
