MSPSL

Mirrors

Use in pairs

If you are to move to the left, check centre mirror then left mirror

If you are to move to the right, check centre mirror then right mirror

Look for motorcycles and cycles when turning at junctions

Check the speed and position of vehicles behind you and act sensibly upon what you see

Signal

Left or right, as appropriate, and in good time

Do not to confuse other road users or pedestrians by signalling too early or too late.

Manoeuvre

Position

Correctly and in good time - 1m from kerb if left

Position early so other road users know your intensions

Speed/Gear

Adjust speed as necessary

Select the correct gear

As a general rule closed junctions usually require 1st gear - open junctions may be OK in 2nd.

Look

Look early on approach

Assess the situation

Decide to wait or go

Act upon your decision (must not cause vehicles to Slow down, Swerve or Stop).

With practice MSPSL will become a natural part of your driving.
