The distance to look out for must be at least three times the speed you are travelling at.

Choke  pull outwards

When using the brake pedal, your right heel should not touch the floor board

Demerits

Mobile phone while driving penalty  12 DP + jail up to 6 nths or fine up to 1k or both

Exceed speed limit by <20km/h  4 d.p


Exceed speed limit by 20-30 km/h  6 d.p
Exceed spped limit by 30-40 kn/h  8 d.p
Exceed speed limit by 40-50 km/h  12 d.p
Exceed speed limit by 50-60 km/h  18 d.p
Exceed speed limit by 60 km/h  24 d.p

Fail to give way to pedestrian at pedestrian crossing  6 d.p

Beat a red light  12 d.p

Driving on road shoukder  6 d.p. $150 for light vehivle, $180 for heavy vehicle.

Notes

Parking (Slope facing downhill)  turn the front wheels inward with the reverse gear engaged

Flood  lower gear

3-lane, center lane is usually used for drivers

under inflated tyres  shorter braking distance and harder steering.


Ober-inflated tyres  Longer breaking distance and easier steeering

Gradual slope  2nd to 3rd gear

Moving off
- Release clutch too early  engine will stop/vibrate violently and vehicle will jump or surge forward

To pass driving test  max 18 points

Accelerator  can rest your heel + use outer edge of right foot ball.
Brake  cannot rest your heel
Clutch  cannot rest your heel

Vehicle in motion  engine stall  insufficient force on the accelerator pedal

Pressing the accelerator  steadily and progressively to achieve a gradual and smooth increase of speed

Free-wheeling is caused by depressing the clutch pedal too soon

Brake pedal  all 4 wheels. Handbrake  2 rear wheels.

When engine reaches the biting point, you will see a slight decrease of engine revolutions from the tachometer

An advantage of intermittent braking is that the wheels will not be locked up


When applying an emergency brake on a wet road and your car slides forward, you should pump the brake to shorten
the braking distance and hold the steering wheel firmly to control the vehicle

Turn into narrow course too early  rear wheel is obstructed. Turn into narrow course too late  front wheel is
obstructed.

The lower the gear  the more effective the engine brake.

When any of the wheels are loose  steering wheel will become heavy to control as more effort is needed to prevent
the vehivle from wandering side to side

Highbeam distance  100m

No parking within 9 meters of a bus stop, 6 meters of a traffic junction and 3 meteres of a fire hydrant

Distance to keep from hazards


- Fixed obstacle  0.5 m
- Parked car  1 m
- Pedestrian facing traffic  1m
- Moving vehicle  1.5m
- Pedestrian back facing traffic  1.5m
