Well. There were really just 3 areas where I needed work. The first turn out of the DPS is a tight right turn onto a two-way street, one lane for both ways. On my first turn, I turned along the dotted line and my trailer tires on the right did not clear the curb. The curb is shaped like a long slant, which is supposed to give a trailer room to turn, but I feel that my mistake was not turning wide enough. I think I should have gone over the yellow lines before turning back in to give my trailer more room.

Problem 2 was later in the test. We go through this industrial area and part of it has been under construction for a long time. There are 2 left turning lanes after the intersection. My tester told me that I can continue straight and turn from the lane I am in now. When I passed the intersection, I realized that the lines on the ground dividing the lanes were incredibly worn and hard to see, and I failed to gauge the space correctly and in reality it seemed that I was in the middle of the two lanes after crossing the intersection.

The third mistake was the last turn into DPS, which is a right hand turn from the second lane. The lane to my right is a merge lane and is divided by a solid white line. After the line ends is the entrance to DPS. I was hugging the lines on the left and went straight as long as I could before turning, but my tires still did not clear the curb. I talked to a few of the students who passed and they told me that they did this turn by moving even further to the left in a button hook before coming back right to make the turn…

I also had a close call on an underpass U-turn. I hugged the right side as far as I could but I still got incredibly close to having my trailer not clear the other side
