RoadReadyBefore you begin
The purpose of recognition is to support a considered road decision.
Use the checklist as a study aid. Adapt it to the actual question, the current local guidance and your instructor's advice rather than treating it as a universal driving procedure.
Your checklist
A quick reference
| Stage | What to focus on | Your check |
|---|---|---|
| Notice | Ask what the sign tells you to anticipate. | What information is available? |
| Explain | The purpose of recognition is to support a considered road decision. | Can I explain the reason? |
| Choose | Use local guidance to connect recognition with appropriate action. | What would I verify first? |
