Guides in getting us driving license.

1.  zig zag

Donot look at the cones directly. Look at the far place in front of cones. You’ll get a better feeling when to turn. Drive slowly.  Probably you don’t need to give gas. (can only control from brakes ). In case you feel you are going to hit a cone, stop and reverse and try again. It is ok during test. If you hit a cone, you’ll get failed.

2 lines of zig zags available. Left one and Right one. First turn can be left of the 1st cone or right(in between 1-2 cones) of the 1st cone.  Listen to examiner and act accordingly.

 After cones, if you were to reverse, reverse straight looking back. Don’t look at the ground road. Instead look far. You may turn the wheel a bit side ways to keep you  straight. (not zigzagging)

 2. Parellel parking

Right signal.  Stop parallel to the cones representing front car in such a way that cone A7 can be seen from your right back window (1/3 of the window- Y4 and Y6). Put reverse gear. Turn steering full clockwise. Reverse slowly until you see B9 through Y5. Then stop. Turn the steering full anti-clockwise. Reverse slowly until you see B7 through Y3-Y5. Then put front gear. Turn clockwise full. Pull forward a little.
