PST No.6 Exercises 12P and 5T
The DSA SE (Supervising Examiner) will call your learner a trained student for this Pre Set Test lesson briefing. Listen to the word picture given to you by the SE and take notes if you like. Remember your student may be a full licence holder, so no roof box is required.
The lesson recap will start as you complete Phase 1For this PST the following areas will need to be covered in your lesson briefing:
You'll start this PST from wherever the phase 1 lesson ended. Your learner is now a completely different human being to the one you taught on phase 1. Any errors you fixed in phase 1 may reappear on phase 2. Don't make the error of thinking that you fixed those errors earlier, so they won't happen again.
For this PST, the areas to cover in your lesson briefing are:
- briefing on reverse parking
- co-ordination of controls
- observation
- accuracy
Faults that may be used by the SE would include
- no observation, or very little observation, before and during the exercise
- carrying out the exercise too quickly
- losing control of the vehicle
- failing to achieve reasonable accuracy
- co-ordination errors between steering and use of the foot controls
The above faults may be used, as well as many others which you may never have seen before and probably never will see used by a learner driver, so be prepared. Use the following fault analysis check list.
Fault Analysis
- Identify Fault- Say It
- What or Where Should?
- Why Should?
- When to Do/How To Do/How To Judge
- So Next Time?
- Prompt or Guide Next Attempt
- Praise When Done/Be Specific
Don’t forget your structure for the briefing
