You will be asked to carry out one reverse manoeuvre during your driving test. This could be a reverse parallel park, a reverse around the corner or a bay park.
You will need to demonstrate the manoeuvre with the following three attributes:
- Observation – You need to ensure you are carrying out observations of your surroundings throughout the manoeuvre.
- Control – Control the speed of the vehicle using the clutch and the direction using steering.
- Accuracy – You need to accurately position the vehicle equally between the two lines of the parking space.
