🏍️ **RiderSafe Tight Turns – What's the Point?**

It's not just about getting a motorcycle around a tight corner.

It's about learning three fundamental skills of motorcycle control.

✅ Eyes up.

✅ Turn your head and look where you want to go.

✅ Relax your grip and stop fighting the handlebars.

In this video, I demonstrate just how little pressure is needed on the bars when the motorcycle is allowed to steer.

These skills aren't just for RiderSafe. They're the fundamentals of controlling your motorcycle, whether you're riding at walking pace or negotiating corners out on the open road.

Passing the exercise is one thing. Understanding what it's teaching you is another.

**Don't just pass the exercise. Learn the skill that could save you.**

Learn to change lanes safely with Jeff from RADSKILLS Driver Training.

This complete tutorial takes you from a walk-around of the stationary car—understanding mirror views and blind spots—through to performing lane changes on the road.

A key focus is using the centre mirror to build a clear picture of the traffic behind you while keeping your attention moving back to the road ahead. Learn how to identify the same vehicle in your centre and side mirrors, understand its position behind you, and assess whether there is a safe gap to move into.

Checking behind must never mean losing track of what’s happening in front. While you’re looking in the side mirror, the vehicle ahead could brake, or another vehicle could enter the road and use the gap you were planning to move into. Indicating communicates your intention—it doesn’t reserve the gap.

We cover:
• What each mirror shows—and what it cannot show.
• Identifying and monitoring vehicles behind you.
• Using brief mirror checks while maintaining awareness ahead.
• Checking blind spots with a head check.
• Reassessing the gap before moving.
• Bringing observation, signalling and smooth control together.

Seeing a vehicle in your mirrors is only part of the decision. A safe lane change also depends on relative speed, enough space, a clear blind spot and what is happening ahead. If the situation changes, wait and reassess.

Having right of way is only half the job.

We were travelling through the Britannia roundabout when a vehicle approaching from our left failed to give way.

My student saw it developing and was prepared to stop — exactly what we want. No panic, no drama and no near miss.

But watch what happens next. Once we stop for the first vehicle, other vehicles continue through as well, even though we have right of way.

This is why good driving isn't just about knowing who should give way. You also need to watch what other drivers are actually doing and be prepared when they don't do what they're supposed to.

Know the rule. Read the traffic. Be prepared.

Good drivers don't happen by accident.

LEFT TURN ONTO A BUSY ROAD — CAN YOU ACTUALLY SEE WHAT YOU’RE TURNING INTO? 🚗👀

In this clip, my student is preparing to turn left onto busy Portrush Road.

At first, the car isn't positioned far enough forward to get a clear view up the road. So rather than guessing, we move forward and further into the turn to improve our vision.

And suddenly we can see something important — a truck parked in the left lane.

That changes everything.

We no longer just need a safe gap in the traffic approaching in the left lane. We need enough space to safely enter the road and move into the available lane without pulling out first and then reacting to the truck.

Good driving isn't just about finding a gap.

Get the position right. Get the vision. Then make the decision.

Because good drivers don't happen by accident.

A green light doesn’t mean the way is clear.

In this situation, our student is turning left and needs to cross a bike lane to complete the turn. Mirrors and indicator are done, but before crossing the bike lane there’s one critical observation — check left for cyclists.

We held our position because a cyclist was approaching from behind. Had we simply turned on the green light without checking, we could have turned directly across their path.

The cyclist also showed little precaution despite the vehicle indicating left — another reminder that regardless of who has priority, never rely on someone else to keep you safe.

We saw the hazard. We waited. Nothing happened.

That’s defensive driving.

You Think You've Seen It All... Then This Happens!

Teaching a simple forward bay park... or so we thought.

My student had already moved left to set up the correct angle, the right indicator was on, and we were clearly committed to the manoeuvre before the blue Mercedes even entered the aisle.

Then, out of nowhere, they drove up the wrong side of the car park aisle and parked in the very bay we were about to use.

Could we have argued? Sure.

Instead, it became another valuable lesson.

At RADSKILLS we teach that Observations don't stop just because you've made a decision. Other road users don't always see your intentions, and sometimes they simply do the unexpected.

Observations → Decisions → Actions.

Because the safest drivers are the ones who expect the unexpected.

🚦 **Don't Block Your Own Exit**

One of the biggest mistakes drivers make when turning right at traffic lights is rolling too far into the intersection.

In this clip, the oncoming vehicle also intends to turn right. Instead of waiting in the correct position, they creep across our path, leaving neither of us with enough room to complete the turn safely.

The dashcam's wide-angle (fish-eye) lens makes it look like there's plenty of space, but in reality there wasn't.

**The RADSKILLS Rule:**
✅ Roll into the intersection.
✅ Keep your wheels and car pointing straight ahead.
✅ Don't drift right until you have a safe path to complete the turn.

If you move across too early, you can block the intersection, trap other vehicles, and create unnecessary conflict.

Good positioning creates options. Poor positioning takes them away.

**Observations. Decisions. Actions.**
