Most Common Minor Faults
Junctions - turning left1.00
Common Scenarios:
- Incorrect positioning when turning left at junctions.
- Not positioning to the left of a junction when waiting to turn left.
- Turning left at a roundabout using the incorrect lane.
Why More Common Here:
- Roundabouts with many exits making lane choice less obvious.
Use of speed (too fast)1.00
Common Scenarios:
- Driving above the posted speed limit.
- Failing to reduce speed when approaching a hazard, such as a pedestrian crossing or a bend in the road.
- Driving too fast on a road with potholes or poor surface condition (regardless of the posted speed limit).
- Driving too fast on a national speed limit road (60 mph is often too dangerous).
- Driving at a speed that is unsafe for the weather - rain, fog, or ice.
Why More Common Here:
- Recently changed speed limits that conflict with old limits displayed on satnav.
- Sudden speed limit changes, especially on exit sliproads.
- Inadequate signage, road markings and traffic calming measures.
- Test routes that cross both 20 mph residential zones and regular 30 mph roads.
- 20 mph main roads where locals ignore the limit and overtake learners, causing pressure to keep pace.
- Clearly signed 30/40/50/NSL roads that pressure learners to make progress despite potholes, bends, etc.
Mirrors - change speed1.00
Common Scenarios:
- Failing to check mirrors when slowing down.
- Failing to check mirrors when speeding up, creating danger for anyone overtaking.
- Accidentally slowing due to improper gear selection.
Why More Common Here:
- Roads with harsh speed limit changes.
- Fast hilly roads where learners may forget to downshift as needed, causing accidental slow-downs.
Junctions - turning right1.00
Common Scenarios:
- Incorrect positioning when turning right at junctions.
- Not positioning to the right of the road when turning right.
- Turning right at a roundabout using the incorrect lane.
- Not using the waiting area in the middle of the road when waiting to turn right, therefore blocking traffic behind.
Why More Common Here:
- Confusing road layouts, worn road markings and circuitous test routes involving waiting area for right turns.
- Roundabouts with many exits making lane choice less obvious.
- Roundabouts whose signs contradict the actual road geometry, making the 12 o'clock rule difficult to follow.
