Visual Guide
What This Helps With
One-way streets change where you position, especially for right turns. You must read signs and arrows early.
The Simple Version
Look for one-way signs and road arrows. If turning right from a one-way street, you may need to position on the right, not near the centre line.
Common Mistakes
- Missing the one-way sign.
- Turning right from the wrong position.
- Following another driver instead of reading markings.
- Realising too late which lane you need.
What Examiners Care About
They want early reading and correct positioning. Guessing lanes late can create sudden, unsafe changes.
Practise On Your Next Lesson
Ask to drive through a simple one-way street and talk through the signs, arrows, and right-turn position.
Ask Your Instructor
"What was the first clue that this was one-way?"
Quick Self-Check
- Did I see the signs early?
- Did I use the right position?
- Did I follow markings, not other drivers?
