Motorways are high speed, multi – lane roads where the two carriageways are separated by a central reservation.
They demand particular skills, including-
EFECTIVE OBERVATIONS using your mirrors and checking your blind spots,
JUDGEMENT and PLANNING AHEAD
A SAFE SEPERATION DISTANCE
USE OF SLIP ROADS when joining and leaving the motorway
OVERTAKING and LANE DISCIPLINE
CORRECT USE OF SPEED
When you have passed your test, you are free to drive along the motorway,
Few people feel prepared for this as you have been given no practical motorway instruction while taking normal driving lessons.
WHY NOT TRY a two hour motorway session, just to make it a more familiar situation
