1 Check mirrors to make sure no one is around. Start slowing down slowly, especially if you are driving at high speeds.

2 Turn on the right turn indicator 100 m from the place where you plan to turn.

3 These instructions are for normal right-hand traffic. Remember to drive on the left in the UK or Australia.

4 Take the exit as close to the right side of the road as possible. You should be about 15-20 cm from the sidewalk on the right side. Drivers driving in the opposite direction will feel as if you are parking.

5 Wait to let those behind you pass. You will have to cross two lanes, so the road must be clear in both directions before starting the U-turn.

Part 2 of 3: Turning Perpendicular

1. 1 Turn on the left turn indicator. It will show that you are planning to turn left.
2. 2 Take your foot off the brake pedal. In the meantime, start turning the steering wheel counterclockwise for a left turn. Slowly press down on the gas pedal.
3. 3 Follow the width of the road. You need to continue to turn left and slowly press on the gas until you find yourself 15 cm from the sidewalk on the left side of the road.
4. 4 Come to a complete stop by applying the brake. The car will be perpendicular to the lanes.

Part 3 of 3: The End of the Turn

1. 1 Turn on the right turn indicator. Look both ways for vehicles. You should always be extremely careful with respect to passenger cars driving in any direction.
2. 2 Engage reverse gear.
3. 3 Start turning the steering wheel clockwise. Slowly release your foot from the brake when you turn the wheel all the way to the right.
4. 4 Slowly press the gas pedal. The car will travel backward, moving into the right lane, opposite to the direction you started from.
5. 5 Stop as soon as your vehicle turns around near the sidewalk. Prepare to start driving and slowly step on the gas pedal. You can accelerate to the permitted speed.

Tips

• Exercise until you can safely and fairly quickly make a three-step U-turn. Sometimes you need to make a U-turn rather quickly to avoid oncoming traffic.
