Centre FAQ
How can I improve intersection confidence?
Use repeatable scan timing and commit only on clear decisions.
Is shoulder checking still critical on wider roads?
Yes, blind spots remain regardless of lane width.
What if I miss a planned lane change?
Continue safely and re-plan; forced moves create bigger errors.
Should I train in different weather?
Yes, controlled exposure improves speed and spacing judgment.
