Planning

Post by LuluJeanne »

Hello :)

Just a quick query. Wondering if anyone has difficulty planning ahead when their driving?

I find that i've been told many times that i have poor planning skills, which usually results in me making silly or serious mistakes. I know that the driving examiner looks for good planning skills, ie: before a junction, crossing etc,

I just can't seem to make my brain sequence the events in the correct order ie: i'll change gear too quickly before checking my mirrors!

I'm getting better at familar junctions and roundabouts, because i know what to expect, BUT when i get into a unfamilar situation, i PANIC and cannot plan at all, and almost want to close my eyes!

Anyone else having problems or had problems with planning or organising events whilst driving? Driver

What scares me when I drive is when I looked on the opposite side because am going to have left turn.....
