One important thing to remember.Originally posted by hw_ng:no la, at ssdc. so how, anybody got any tips?
SAFETY FIRST.
Drive carefully & do all the checks you need to do.
especially check blind spots. Even if you're sure, just turn your head for show. -
signal ur intention first.. steer ur car to position it slightly to the right but still keep within ur lane (dun steer out of ur lane).. check ur mirrors (rear and side).. when it's clear, turn ur head to check your blindspot.. den proceed.. your steering should be minimal.. your vehicle should 'glide' out smoothly from ur lane and not 'force' ur way out..
do the same again when u are changing from lane 2 to 1.. and remember ur mirrors and blindspot as well.. it's ok if you hav to travel straight for awhile on lane 2 before changing to lane 1 (depends on traffic).. doesn't have to 1 shot change from lane 3 to 1..
safety always come first.. if traffic is tight, signal then slow down ur car.. cos that will allow more cars to pass you by ur side over a shorter period of time.. if u speed up and they speed up, u forever no need change lane.. remember this..
"steer minimal" = imagine the steering wheel as a clock.. you should onli steer the most 5 min to the left or right to be consider not abrupt..
all the best to ur test.. remember.. stay calm and confident.. the tester will not want to see a nervous you cos it will imply that you can't drive under pressure..
GOOD LUCK ! -

Dun be blur blur ..
Eat banana before the test ..
Breath in and out inorder to relax ..
Count 10-1 if you nervous during test.
When changing /filtering lanes check mirror , side mirror and blind sport.
If u see a car behind you.. accelerate or slow down depending on the situatons.. if the car behind you .. accelerate to overtake and if the car beside you.. slow down to overtake from behind.
Watch out for cyclists, motorbikers and predestrians ..becos they could anytime destroy your passing apportunity... -

remember how you lane change will depend on the traffic condition, so be flexible and adapt to the situation. Be decisive and if clear, increase speed as you ease into the next lane. Do not take too long or appear indecisive when lane changing.
Also when after turning back toward SSDC watch out for buses and taxi as they might stop abruptly on the road to pick passengers, keep a good distance so you can change smoothly to the next lane . During my TP, bcoz of taxi caused me to
get an 'abrupt lane change' minus 4 pts. Actually, just BEWARE of taxis!
Lucky that time (march) I manage to pass with 12 demerits.
Good luck to you!
