This podcast covers the process of turning right into a side road. This is one of the top 5 reasons for test failure according to the statistics from .Gov - So whilst this seems easy, it can be a challenge to a supervising driver to guide and advise the learner on if they don't have the core driving process guiding the learners actions.

We go through the process for turning right step by step. That in turning right this would start about 8-10 car lengths before the turn.
But as a supervising driver, you can really improve practice by ensuring you get ahead of the student, and give clear and concise instruction well in advance about 20 car lengths back - and crucially has time to start their MSPSL-ADA process 8-10 car lengths back.
So having got your instruction to your learner out early - we step through the process
- Mirrors (change of speed - slowing down) rear and right (change of direction mirror)
- Signal (right) indicating to others your intention
- Position - this is the main cause of problems for learners; must ensure they are positioned alongside the center line (if the road is wide enough to allow that) so don't obstruct following traffic and they can see what your intention is from signal and positioning (turning right). Get to point of turn - front bumper level with lines in middle of side road into which your turning. Some tips on assessing point of turn in podcast.
- Speed - should have been slowed down on approach and make assessment as to whether you can turn in second gear (clear road, open junction, no oncoming traffic), or approach in first gear (if closed junction, oncoming traffic) with view to stop at point of tur
