To drive defensively in a UK driving test, you should:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front of you, as this will give you more time to react to any sudden stops or turns.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Look well ahead of you when driving, and be aware of any potential hazards or changes in the road ahead.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Anticipate the actions of other road users, such as pedestrians, cyclists and other drivers, and be prepared to take appropriate action to avoid collisions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Use your signals when changing lanes or turning, to let other road users know your intentions.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Follow the speed limit and obey all traffic signs and signals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Avoid distractions while driving, such as using your mobile phone or eating.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Always wear your seatbelt and ensure that any passengers in your vehicle do the same.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  8. Always be prepared to stop or take evasive action if necessary.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  9. Be aware of vulnerable road users such as pedestrians, cyclist, and motorbike rider.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  10. Always be ready to take the right of way if it is safe to do so.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
