Give a turning lorry extra room: its length and turning path can sweep across adjacent space.
Make a U-turn slowly in first gear so the vehicle has maximum control and turning power.
Right of way is not an entitlement to collide; give way whenever doing so avoids danger.
Start steering at the correct point for a narrow bend so the front wheel clears the kerb or obstruction.
A signal communicates intent; it does not create right of way. Signal early and still give way where required.
Keep left unless a genuine obstruction, such as road works, makes it necessary and safe to move right.
Do not turn too early into a narrow bend because the rear wheel cuts inside the front wheel’s path.
When another vehicle cuts in dangerously, reduce speed safely and give space rather than asserting priority.
Signal for a side road after a junction only after passing that junction, so other road users are not misled.
At a roundabout, give way to traffic approaching from or already on your right.
At an uncontrolled junction, check both directions carefully and proceed only when safe.
Begin steering a narrow turn at the proper point to clear the corner.
