What is the objective for Session 3?

During this session your ADI should make sure that you use key observational techniques in low-risk driving situations such as in quiet residential areas, quiet local and rural roads.

What is the minimum this first session should cover?

During this session, you should drive in light traffic situations in order to cover the MSMM (Mirror, Signal, Mirror, Manoeuvre) routine. You should also cover basic scanning techniques when:

• turning left and right;
• turning at roundabouts; and
• when negotiating junctions.

Expected outcomes: what should I have learned at the end of Session 3?

At the end of the third session, you should be able to show that you can:

• use mirrors appropriately; and
• carry out the MSMM routine correctly.

You should also be able to show that you can do the proper ‘safety glances’ when:

• moving off;
• turning;
• at junctions; and
• negotiating roundabouts.

You should be able to show that you are aware of blind spots and how to compensate for them.
