Module 2 on Friday!

[alexanderfoti]

Hi all

I have my Module 2 in Enfield on Friday morning and was wondering something about observations.

I have been double checking and practising them all on my commute to and from work and I want to just double check that I have them down:

Approaching a junction - Minor to major.

Look in mirrors, lifesaver, position (left or right), reach the end of the road, Stop, Livesavers again, check road ahead, see a clear gap, left or right lifesaver (depending on turning left or right) then turn, check mirrors then up to speed?

also, if you are in slow moving traffic, do you have to do a lifesaver every time you stop and every time you move off?

Cheers in advance!

AFAIK there is no "rule" as to how many or often you need to lifesaver. They are what they say on the tin and if you are only doing them because you think you have to just to pass a test then you have your priorities wrong, imo.

Do them when ever changing position in the lane you are in, and again if you change lanes. Check right when turning right, and vice versa. I would always check right when moving off even in slow moving stop/start traffic, you never know who might be filtering and stop next to you without you even noticing.

Changing direction to the right and moving off needs a lifesaver also when turning left and if theres a cycle lane do a check to your left, but pulling away at lights and stuff you just need to check your mirrors Good luck for Friday

Many thanks for the good luck.

I see how it came across like I was doing lifesavers only for the test but I do them all the time on every ride, just wanted to check when the testers would be expecting you to do them thats all!

Thanks for the tip and I will let you know how I get on!
