You are moving off from the kerb. What must you do before starting?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: C. Check mirrors and blind spot, then signal if needed
- Step 1: Moving off may cut across traffic. Step 2. Observe first, then signal and go when safe. Answer: Check mirrors and blind spot, then signal if needed. Why not the others: Signal, then move off immediately without looking back: a signal does not replace the observation that checks the blind spot. Sound the horn and move: a horn gives no right to pull out. Look only straight ahead: vehicles coming up behind or overtaking will not be seen.
