Practice junction observation and mirror checks for the short, staggered junctions around the village and on approaches to Earith Causeway. Build confidence on busier A-road sections when you drive towards Cambridge, especially at roundabouts and multi-lane junctions. Work on reverse parking and bay parking in the village centre where spaces are tight. Regular mock tests in Cambridge-style conditions will help when you book your practical test.
