On your lessons in the Norwood area, your instructor will know which areas to take you depending on your ability and lesson plan for that day. A Suitable area is required for each lesson plan to go to plan. For instants its no good doing your reversing lessons on a busy road, thus be unable to perform the exercise enough times to master it independently. Below are a small example of lesson plans and areas suitable in Norwood

Lesson Plan: Moving Off and Stopping 

Moving off and stopping is the first time your drive. Your instructor will drive you to a quite area. The instructor will explain some controls he is using as he drives you to a suitable site. The instructor will brief you on the controls you will need to use to perform the move off procedure and then parking procedure. The instructor will know where to take you. Best places in South Norwood are Albert Road or off Long lane.

Lesson Plan: Clutch Control 

Clutch Control is important to pass a test. The Biting Point is a phase that will be mentioned many times. You will drive to a hilly area such as at Beulah Hill or nearby Shirley. Good understanding of foot controls is essential.

Lesson Plan: Progress / Hesitation and Driving Position

Progress can mean either driving too fast or driving too slow. Hesitation is when you arrive at junctions not ready to get going or missing gaps in traffic when entering a busy road. Driving Position on the road is important as bad positioning can mislead others into thinking you’re doing something that you’re not. Everywhere in Norwood is fine for these exercises, especially all its One-Way streets around Portland road.

Lesson Plan: Junctions – Emerging and Entering

Norwood is perfect for junction experience. Its many junctions are varied in size and layout. Norwood is known for its many one-way streets. Emerging in Norwood can be tricky with so much traffic on Portland road.

Lesson Plan: Meeting Traffic
Norwood was made for Meeting Traffic. The list goes on and on of areas suitable. You will never see so many parked cars. You will have to decide when to go or when to wait. Where to wait to allow the flow of traffic, can be tricky.
