  1. G2 · Lesson 1

    Before Your G2 Test

    2 min read

    The G2 test checks whether you can handle everyday driving safely and make decisions without coaching. Your preparation starts before the car moves. A familiar vehicle, working equipment and an unhurried arrival give you more attention for the drive itself.

  2. G2 · Lesson 2

    Observation and Lane Changes

    2 min read

    Good observation gives you time to drive smoothly. The aim is to understand what is happening around the car, then use that information before you brake, turn or move sideways.

  3. G2 · Lesson 3

    Intersections and Turns

    3 min read

    Intersections bring several decisions together: where to stop, who goes first, whether the path is clear and which lane to enter. Start observing early so you can make those decisions one at a time.

  4. G2 · Lesson 4

    Reversing and Parking

    2 min read

    Parking combines observation with slow, accurate control. Give yourself enough time to see where the whole car is moving. A useful reference point can help, but it must work for your seat position, your vehicle and the space in front of you.

  5. G2 · Lesson 5

    Stops, Hills and Turnarounds

    2 min read

    These manoeuvres happen at low speed, but traffic can still approach quickly. Take time to choose a suitable location and check again whenever you change direction.

  6. G2 · Lesson 6

    Put Your G2 Skills Together

    2 min read

    A useful final practice drive connects the skills from the earlier lessons. You should be able to follow directions, notice hazards and decide when to act without someone reminding you about each mirror or signal.
