The part 2 test is a practical driving test of an advanced nature and is a lot harder than that of the learner test so therefore a high standard of driving is required. You will drive on a variety of roads including town driving, rural driving and where possible motorway driving Throughout the test you will deal with different road and traffic conditions and you will also need to demonstrate the following:
Be able to read a vehicle number plate from a distance of 27.5 metres
Have a good knowledge on basic vehicle safety checks
Drive to a high standard of competence keeping control of your vehicle at all times
Show a well planned, positive and progressive drive showing high levels of road awareness
Make progress when safe to do so whilst adhering to all speed limits
Avoid any undue hesitation
Show a sound judgement of speed, distance and timing
Show consideration and safety towards other road users
Demonstrate the principles of eco-friendly driving
Turn right and left hand corners
Emerge safely from junctions
Meet, overtake and cross the path of other road users safely and take an appropriate course
Also whist on test you will be required to carry out some basic exercises and manoeuvres
Move away straight ahead, at an angle and on a gradient
Stop the vehicle as if in an emergency
Drive in reverse gear and whilst doing so enter a limited opening to the right and to the left with full control, displaying reasonable accuracy and taking full all round observations
Reverse park into a space behind another vehicle within the space of about two cars lengths finishing up parallel and close to the kerb. Throughout the manoeuvre, the candidate needs to be displaying reasonable accuracy and taking full all round observations.
Or Reverse into a car parking bay where again the candidate needs to be displaying reasonable accuracy and taking full all round observations.
Turn the vehicle around in the road to face the opposite direction by the means of using forward and reverse gears under full control whilst displaying reasonable accuracy and taking full all round observations.
To pass To pass you must not accumulate more than six driving faults or one serious or dangerous fault. You are limited to three attempts at this test within two years of passing the ADI part 1examination. With the correct training and by putting in the practice and making this a natural style of driving, then the part 2 can be very easy.
