1. Looking too close to the car
New learners watch the road right in front of the bonnet. Lift your eyes. Look far. Your steering gets smoother.
2. Forgetting mirror checks
You need mirror checks before moving off, before signalling, and before changing position. Many skip at least one.
3. Jerky clutch control
Stalling or jumping forward happens because the clutch comes up too fast. Slow lift and hold the bite point.
4. Late braking
Beginners press the brake late and hard. Start braking earlier with steady pressure.
5. Drifting left or right
New drivers grip the wheel tight and lose lane control. Relax your hands and keep your eyes ahead.
6. Speeding up at the wrong time
Learners press the accelerator during bends, junctions, or uncertainty. Hold steady speed until the road is clear.
7. Missing road signs
Signs appear early, but beginners focus only on steering. Scan ahead and use signs to plan your next move.
Quick advice:
Don’t rush. Build each skill step by step. Driving becomes simple once your eyes, hands, and feet work in rhythm.
