to press down on the
accelerator gently
to increase the
engine’s revs very
slightly
6. Slowly lift the clutch
pedal using your left
foot until it starts to
vibrate gently
7. This vibration is
known as the car’s
“bite point” - this is
where the clutch
plates start to come
together.

handbrake and the
car should start to

3. Turn on the engine and
release the parking
brake, if necessary. Put
your keys in the
ignition, which is usually
to the right side of the
steering wheel, and
turn clockwise. Note
that in some newer
vehicles, provided the
keys are actually inside
the car, all you need to
do is push the "Power"
or "Ignition" button for
the engine to start.
Fancy!
4. Learn how to back your
car out. If your car is
parked in a car park or a
driveway, chances are
you're going to need to
reverse your car out in
order to begin driving.
5. When you're ready to
move your car
forwards, come to a
complete stop and put
the car into "Drive".
Put your foot on the
brake pedal, shift your
car into Drive so that it
can begin to move
forward, and then take
your foot off the brake
pedal. Slowly press
down on the
acceleration pedal with
your foot to get the car
to move forwards.
Accelerate until you've
reached the speed limit,
and then take your foot
off the accelerator,
hovering it over the
brake pedal in case you
need to slow down.
6. Hold both hands on the
steering wheel at the
"9 and 3 o'clock"
position. Imagine that
the steering wheel is a
clock. Place your left
hand where the number
9 would be on a clock,
and your right hand
where the number 3
would be.[4] Especially
for beginners, do not
try to hold the steering
wheel with only one
hand, because it is you
are more likely to lose
control of the car,
which could cause an
accident.
7. Use your blinkers (also
called indicators or turn
signals). Your blinkers
are flashing orange or
red lights (some cars
have red lights as
blinkers on either side
of the rear of the car)
next to the brake lights.
They are really
important when driving
as they let other cars
know that you're
wanting to switch lanes
or turn in a specific
direction. The blinker
switch is located on the
left side of the steering
wheel. Flick it up to
indicate you want to
turn right (for turning or
switching lanes to the
right), or flick it down to
indicate you want to
turn left (for turning or
switching lanes to the
left).
8. Learn how to turn the
car using the hand over
hand method. Turning
is quite easy once you
get used to it. Like most
things when driving, it's
very intuitive. If you
only need to turn the
car slightly, turn the
steering wheel in the
direction you want to
travel but try keeping
your hands at the 9 and
3 position.
9. Learn how to switch
lanes. At some point
when driving, you'll
need to switch from
one lane to another,
sometimes quickly.
Doing so is easy, but
you have to remember
to indicate to let other
drivers know that
you're planning on
switching lanes.
10. Stay a healthy distance
behind other cars, and
avoid tailgating. How
far you should stay
behind the car in front
of you depends on how
fast you are traveling.
