Most of a passenger vehicle road test is in a forward motion – approximately 7/8th of the test is in a forward motion, however, the 1/8 that is slow-speed manoeuvres gives new drivers the most challenge.

For the purpose of a road test, drivers are required to know how to do a 3 point turn. The step-by-step directions for a 3 point turn can be found here:

Most of the time, a driving examiner will take you a dead end street, or a thoroughfare with minimal traffic to complete this manoeuvre. As well, the street will be narrow and will preclude you from doing a ‘U’ turn.

It is important to go slow for this manoeuvre – no or little throttle is required. Often a driver will be required to apply the brake to control the speed of the vehicle.

Other key components of the 3 point turn are observation and communication. In other words, you must not move the vehicle until the way is clear in both directions, and you communicate to other traffic what you are doing on the roadway.
STEP-BY-STEP Instructions for 3 Point Turn

You are stopped at the right side of the road

• Select Drive
• Check the left mirror, signal to the left and check over the left shoulder
• Release the brake, don't give the vehicle any gas and steer all the way rapidly to the left
• As you go over the centre line begin to straighten out the wheels
• Stop near the curb
• Select reverse and activate your right signal

• Do a safety scan, check for traffic and look over your right shoulder - release the brake when the way is clear and steer rapidly to the right

• When your reach the centre of the road, look over your left shoulder, straighten out the wheel and stop the vehicle near the curb (you are looking over your left shoulder because the rear left tire is the first to the curb - the rear tires are just behind the back seat)

• Select drive, signal left, do a safety scan (left, centre, right) to ensure it is clear to pull out and drive away

- Look into your intended path
- Accelerate
- Steer the vehicle

Good luck on your road test!

I honestly never heard of using turn signals on a three point turn never ever and it was the reason why I failed my drivers test but now I watch this video and it makes a word of a difference thank you

I guess different instructors teach this differently. I never learned to straighten out the wheel at the midline, either going forward of going back - and if you look at other vids online, its often taught without that. So, first turning the wheel all the way to the left, driving forward, reaching the opposite side (you'll reach it at an angle), then turning the wheel all the way to the right and reversing, which leaves you faced in the proper new direction. Your method obviously works, too but it does involve extra steps. Your vids are the best at reminding to always do shoulder checks and mirror checks.

Rick, thank you so much for your channel. For a few months now I've watched as many videos as I could and yesterday I passed my G2 driving test in Ontario with no problem at all!! My test included 3 point turn, parallel parking, uphill with curve parking, and many (many!) left turns. I'm absolutely certain that I passed because of you.
Keep up the excellent work, I really appreciate all your help.
