  1. If its the standard learner test you have to:

    Reverse round a corner to the left OR right ( very rare that they ask a learner to do a right reverse)

    Bay park OR parallel park

    Turn in the road using forward and reverse gears (commonly known as 3 point turn)

    So its 3 manouveres including reversing out of a possible 5.


  2. Just two that I know of.......

  3. Yeah its just 2!! Good luck :0)

  4. upto 3. and controlled  stop

  5. Disregard John B - I am an ADI also and you only get 2 Reversing manoeuvres on your test.

    many people think the Emergency stop is also counted as a manoeuvre, but it isn't. it is an extra skill and is tested in approximately 20% of tests.

  6. You get 2 reversing manoeuvers out of a possible 4. Reverse round a corner, turn in road and reverse park (either on the road (parallel)or in a carpark(baypark))

    You wont get both parking manoeuvers (one or the other)

    Most common are turn in road and left reverse, if left reverse is blocked by parked cars, then they look for a car to parallel park at.  

    Bay park (if done) is usually at the start or end of the test in the test centre carpark.

    In my experience as an ADI I have had pupils get all of the manoeuvers, because examiners have an obligation to perform them all equally.  

    At busy times, its common for the examiners to do bay park at start or end, to make sure they dont get held up in traffic as much.

    Also emergency stop is included in 1 in 3 test in england scotland wales, and in every test in n.ireland.
