Steering and Road Position for test preparation learners in Northolt

How we teach steering and road position

Look well ahead, make measured steering inputs and use road markings and surrounding space to judge position. For test preparation learners, the priority is driving safely without prompts and responding calmly when plans change.

• Steer smoothly through bends and turns
• Maintain a suitable position from the kerb
• Adjust position for hazards and road width
