 INFORMATION SHEET2.1-1

Correct check-up procedures of engine system is performed

LEARNING OBJECTIVES:

At the end of the lesson, the trainees will be able to:

1. Perform correct check-up procedures of engine system.

2. Tire inflation pressures are checked according to manufacturer’s
specification.
3. Braking system and fluid level properly checked.
4. Engine belt tension and other necessary units are checked in accordance
with manual.
5. Lighting system is checked according to established procedures.

How to check your car before road trip

Step 1. Change the engine oil of your car

Check your oil level and the date

that you may need an oil change. If it is
almost that time to change your oil, then
do it. Along trip can give more stress on
your vehicle.

ATTENTION:adding extra oil will not

work as changing the oil. Because the
sludge from your old oil cannot be
cleared. If possible, the oil filter can
also be changed at the same time.

Step 2. Check the fluids of your car

Make sure to check the various

fluid levels in your car and make sure
they are all topped off, including the oil,
coolant, windscreen wash levels and
brake fluids. This is an efficient way to
avoid unnecessary breakdowns that
could lead to possible accidents.

Step 3.Check air pressure of your car tires

As we all know, tires are your

contact with the road, which means that if
tire checks are neglected, severe on-road
consequences may follow. The number
marked on the tires can contain. If this
capacity is exceeded, it may cause a tire
blowout. On the contrary, low tire pressure
may lead to wasted fuel and hotter tires.
To insert the perfect amount of air pressure
into your tires, use gauge (available from
auto stores) and an air hose (at the gas
station). This will make sure that every tire
is safe and can be change during your journey.

Step 4. Check the tire wear by using

tread gauge

Apart from air pressure, checking

whether your tires can last the whole journey
is also important. Ensure the thread is
1/16th” or 1.6mm and if the gauge shows less
than 2/32”, it is time to use a new tire for the
journey. The worn-out tires may blow out
during long trips.

Step 5. Check the car’s air filter

The car’s performance and

efficiency will be improved if the supply of
clean air to the engine is plentiful. Also, do
not forget the cabin filter since the air is not
fresh inside the car if the cabin filter is
worn-out.

Step 6. Make sure all car lights and signals are working

It is important to make sure all the

signals are functional to avoid the accidents.
Ask for another person’s hand to finish this
check. Sit in the car and turn on all the lights
and signals and ask him or her if the lights are
functioning properly. Spare bulbs can also be
prepared during your trip just in case. (at least
one for each light, including headlights,
indicators, reverse lights and tail lights).

Step 7. Check battery in your car.

If the battery has not been changed for

many years, check whether it can work well or
not. If the sound of your starter is sluggish, it
may indicate corrosion or dying battery. Go
change it as soon as possible.

Step 8. Make sure that you have all auto emergency equipment and they can
work functionally.

Emergency equipment includes, a cell

phone, spare tire and emergency tools (like
flashlights and screwdrivers). Also, make
sure that you know the specific road rules in
countries and areas you head to. For
example, if travelling to EU country, you
should bring a reflective warning triangle,
which is mandatory according to their laws.

Step 9. Wash your car.

Give your machinery buddy a fresh

shower before the trip. This is for two reasons.
Cleaning car windows is important for good
visibility while driving and allows you to check the
conditions for wider blades before your journey.

Step 10. Give your car a test ride.

Have a test ride on your local road to

check the sounds, feel the shakes and watch
for the signs around you. The moaning from
the wheels may indicate a bad wheel and a
worn CV joint the squeal from the brake may
point to warped rotors and worn pads, a soft
brake pedal may mean worn pads, a soft
brake pedal may mean worn pads and
lacking fluid levels. Do not think everything
in your car is good just because you drive it
every day. Give your buddy a test and make
sure it is actually all right. For most people,
a long trip can always have spent with their families.

The driver and his vehicle

Five Characteristics of a Defensive Driver

Defensive driving does not require a high degree of special training. The
characteristics of a defensive driver are the same characteristics that apply to many
aspects of our lives. Let’s look at the five most important requirements for defensive
driving.

1. Knowledge. Defensive drivers take time to educate themselves about safe

driving techniques. They know how to recognize hazards and avoid collisions.
They know the traffic laws in their area. This knowledge helps them know how
to act correctly and quickly in traffic situations. They also know how to properly
maintain their vehicles in a safe operating condition.

2. Alertness.Defensive drivers are alert, both to traffic conditions and to know

how their own mental and physical conditions may affect their driving. They
pay attention to the traffic situation to the front, sides and rear, glancing in rear-
and side view mirrors many times a minute. They give all their attention to the
task of driving.

3. Foresight. Defensive drivers know that their worst enemy is the unexpected.
They never assume the other driver will do the right thing. They anticipate
hazards by scanning the road to size up the traffic situations as far ahead as
possible. In this way they are able to prepare for hazards rather than simply

COMPETENCIES INC. Inc.
 react to them. They practice long-range foresight by keeping their vehicles
well-maintained, by checking them before driving, and by always wearing a
safety belt.

4. Judgement. Good drivers use clear thinking and knowledge to make decisions
wisely and quickly. They maintain control of their behavior, resisting the
temptation to make risky maneuvers to get somewhere faster or to
outmaneuver other drivers. They pass only when it is safe, and always look for
the safest, rather than the speediest, alternatives in any traffic situation. They
are courteous, even when other drivers are not.

5. Skill. Defensive drivers develop the skills necessary to operate a vehicle

properly and safely. They know the safe and legal way to make turns, change
gears, brake and pass. They can “listen” to their cars for signs of engine
trouble, and they can perform simple emergency repairs, such as changing
tires.

You don’t have to have lightning fast reflexes or unusual mental and physical
abilities to be a defensive driver. Defensive driving is simply a matter of clear
thinking, education and a safe attitude on the road.

The Driver’s Physical Condition

It is not enough to have a vehicle in good running condition to ensure safety in

driving. As a driver you must be physically, emotionally and mentally fit to operate
your vehicle on the road. This is vital to safe driving.

Have a check on one’s self

Vision – a driver must see quickly, clearly and accurately, seeing too late makes
decisions come too late. Ninety percent of the decisions made while driving are based
on what the driver see. If eyes do not see properly. It can be corrected by using
corrective lenses.

The different senses of your body can affect your driving, such as your

Sense of Smell – by smelling, you can tell the presence of gas that may be coming
out of your car. Symptoms of carbon monoxide poisoning may result to drowsiness,
headaches, nausea, or metal dullness that impair your driving ability. Check your
engine and exhaust system if they are in top condition.

COMPETENCIES INC. Inc.
Sense of Hearing – a driver who has impaired hearing may not hear important sound
like police vehicles, sirens of fire engines, and horns of other drivers who wish to pass.
The use of hearing aids overcome this defect.

Sense of Touch – proper coordination of hand and feet helps in controlling the
vehicle while in motion. Sensitivity to the important parts of the car such as brakes,
steering system, accelerator, lights and signals through your sense of touch enable
you to determine any incoming failure that may surprise you and the other driver to an
emergency.

Emotions – emotions affects driving performance. Failure to control emotions may

lead to driving errors.

Vehicle information: A vehicle should be properly equipped and must always

be in good condition for safe driving. No one can legally drive a vehicle that
may be a hazard to any person and property. Just like its operator, it needs
regular clean up and checkup.

1. Underneath parts. Check tie rod. Low tire pressure may cause tire wear
and tear pressure. Always equipped vehicle with spare tire. Tires with worn
out tread will slide more easily on wet pavement and may blow out without
warning.
2. Outside parts. Have clean rearview mirrors to see at least 200ft. behind.
Windows must be clean and are free of obstruction. Check vehicle lights if
they are all working such tail lights, turn lights, stop lights, license plate and
parking lights. Check wipers if they operate properly to clear the windshield.
Check mufflers to prevent excessive noise and smoke.
3. Inside parts. Engine tune up as part of the tune up, spark plugs, distributor
points, condenser, and air cleaner must be replaced, carburetor must be
cleaned periodically.

Battery – it must be kept in good condition. Add distilled water if the level is
low.
Safety Devices – check devices such as fuses and circuit brake.
Radiator – check radiator fluid level before starting the engine.
Brakes foot – brakes and parking brakes must be firm enough to stop.
Others – check the temperature gauge and hose connections brake fluid,
and master cylinder.

Be sure to check the type of gasoline/oil suited to your vehicle

 4. On the car seat, check horn if it can be heard from a distance. A defective
steering wheel, clutch pedals, and shift gears need serious attention. Turn
the ignition if lights and gauges register. The car’s gauge warns the driver if
something is going wrong. Finding a competent and dependable mechanic
is important to a driver for proper maintenance and prevention of car
problems before they become critical. Defensive driving is often defined as
preventing crashes before they occur. It is the responsibility of the driver to
keep this car in good running condition for happy and smooth driving.

Battery- your car won’t start with a dead battery. If

your battery dies in the middle of driving, you’ll get
stuck on the side of the road. You know how
dangerous that is.

Before you get in your car, make sure your battery

has a strong charge, clean terminals, and proper
cable-to-terminal connection.

Car batteries typically last for three to four years.

Replace yours if it’s almost near the end of its service
life.

Lights – fully functioning auto lights are a safety

must-have for nighttime driving. However, their
bulbs burn out or get defective over time. This is
why you have to inspect your car’s lights regularly.

Test your headlights, turn signals, brake lights,

reverse light, and tail lights in the garage. The
light beam should reflect on the wall. To confirm if

the lights are working properly, ask someone to stand in front and then behind the car
as you operate the lights.

Check also your lights for dirt, cracks, and breakage. If you spot any, have your lights
cleaned or fixed.

Oil – your car needs oil to lubricate all engine

components. Too little oil is bad for your engine – it
can cause wear and tear on its moving parts.
When your vehicle runs out of oil, your engine will
stop working, and you’ll be dealing with expensive
repair bills.

Check your engine’s oil level and color.When

the oil is below the minimum level, it’s time to refill.
Look also for leaks, as they’re a sign that your car
is quickly losing oil.

Water – overheating is every motorist’s worst

nightmare. A simple check of the water in
your radiator will save you from that road
disaster.

It also helps to have several one-liter bottles of

water in your trunk, just in case your car
overheats while you’re driving and you need to
put water in the radiator to cool the engine
down.

Brake – faulty brakes are a disaster waiting

to happen. Lower your chance of meeting a
road accident – ensure that your brake
system is working properly before you take
your car out of the garage.

Push the brake pedal all the way to the floor.

It shouldn’t feel spongy and have little to no
resistance. Otherwise, it isn’t safe to drive
when the brakes are weak.

Air – are your tires properly inflated? Keep the
right tire pressure to prevent accidents and
decreased fuel economy.

Tires, regardless if they’re old or new, lose air

over time. This problem isn’t easy to detect with
the naked eye – you’ll need to use a tire
pressure gauge. Check the tires also for nails
and other sharp objects that puncture them.

Gas – especially during long drives, a full gas

tank is important. Imagine how troublesome it
would be if you run out of fuel while you’re stuck
in traffic or driving along the road where a gas
station is nowhere in sight.

So don’t forget to check your fuel level through

the fuel gauge before you take your car out for a
drive.

Engine – it’s better to detect an engine

problem before you drive off rather than
deal with it in the middle of the road.

Check for leaks that indicate an engine

problem. Also, start the engine and listen
to its sound. If you hear pinging, tapping,
knocking, or any weird noise, better have a
mechanic check your engine.

Tire – driving with worn-out tires can lead

to fatal accidents. So before you leave for
a road trip, spend a few minutes to check
your tires for bulges, bumps, tears, and
other signs of damage.

To check your tire tread depth, insert a coin

into the tire’s grooves. If you can see much
of the coin’s outer band, that means the
grooves are already shallow, and you need
new tires soon.

Self–human error is the leading cause of road accidents in Metro Manila. A report
from the Metro Manila Accident Recording and Analysis System cites fatigue,
sleepiness, drunkenness, and medical problems like asthma and dizziness as
examples.

Are you physically and emotionally fit to drive today? Check yourself! If you’re sick,
dizzy, tired, sleepy, or drunk, you better let somebody else take over the steering
wheel.

Driving under extreme emotional stress is

also dangerous because you’ll lose
concentration on the road. So avoid driving
when you’re emotional.

Also, check your documents before you hit

the road. Your driver’s license, LTO
registration papers, and proof of car
insurance should be within reach when you
get pulled over on your road trip.

 Information Sheet 2.2-1
Move or re-position selected vehicle

Learning Objective:

After reading this information sheet, you must be able to:

1. Move or re-positioning the selected vehicle

2. Identify the General Responsibilities

Positioning is an important part of safe driving, both in helping to show other road-
users what you are about to do, and in providing you with the best visibility.

Positioning in traffic

The way you position the car can help to supplement the information given by
the direction indicators as to the way you intend to go. However, in towns and other
dense traffic situations, it is not always possible to place the car exactly where you’d
like – it may be necessary to move away from the ideal position to make room for
other traffic so that you avoid causing a jam.

 In normal driving, you should aim to occupy the middle of your lane, so that you
are clear of the gutter but not so far over to the center of the road that oncoming
drivers become nervous.
However, you may need to modify this position and move further to the right if
there are cyclists or pedestrians on the left, or move to the left if long or wide vehicles
need more room.

Other vehicle

Because of the relatively small size and easy maneuverability of a car, you can
position yourself roughly where you want. But some other road-users are not so lucky
– wide, long or tall vehicles often have only one choice of position to get round an
obstruction.

So be ready for articulated vehicles to prepare for a corner by swinging in the

opposite direction to which they wish to turn; expect high-sided vehicles such as
buses to appear in the middle of the road under narrow bridges.

Winding roads

On open, winding roads, you usually have a lot more choice as to your road
position than in towns which have many more road markings and generally less
space. This is just as well, because country roads are often potholed at their edges.
As you are likely to be travelling faster than in town, standing water can become a
problem – you need room to avoid both these hazards.

One useful technique to give extra visibility on twisty roads is to position for an
early view, so that you can see oncoming vehicles as early as possible. This means
moving the car- assuming you have space – over to a position which allows you to see
further around the corner.

On right-hand bends, move the car as far over to the left as you can: on left-
hand bends, move over to hug the center marking, but be ready to move left again if
another vehicle appears from the other direction to give it plenty of room.

Junctions

The direction you intend to go from a junction should dictate the position you
adopt. Even if there is only one lane’s width at a junction, you can adopt a position to
either the left or the right depending on which way you intend to turn, while still

remaining in lane. A slight turn of the wheels in the required direction also helps to
make your intentions extra clear.

On right turns, signal your intentions early and take up a right-hand position on
the approaches. Stay close to the center of the road while you wait for a gap to turn
through, so that other drivers have room to pass on your left.

Motorways
Much of the congestion on today’s motorways is caused by drivers who insist
on driving in the middle and right-hand lanes, even when the rest of the road is
comparatively clear. What happens is that other, faster traffic comes up behind and
cannot get past, leading to bunching. When tempers become frayed, an even more
dangerous situation sometimes occurs, some drives will overtake on the inside.

When the traffic density on a motorway is really severe, there is often less
congestion in the middle and left-hand lanes, which frequently fare better when the
next traffic jam occurs. So it is good advice not just to take up position in the queue in
the third lane.

The rule is that the third lane is for overtaking; not for fast cruising, and by
keeping out of it you have a much better chance of not being involved in a motorway
pile-up.

Distance
In congested conditions it is very difficult to maintain a safe distance from the
vehicle in front. Yet it is important that you do so because this distance can prevent
accidents.

A good rule of thumb, and one which works at any speed, is to always be two
seconds behind the car in front – more in poor conditions.

Being in position on open roads

Position on open roads

On bends you can get the best view ahead by adjusting the car's position to one side of
the road. Correct positioning means that you see further around the bend.

 Move out slightly on left-hand bends for an improved view.

Hang back from large vehicles before overtaking so that you maximize your field of
vision and can see further down the road to check for oncoming vehicles.

 High and long vehicles sometimes have to adopt alternative positions to negotiate
hazards. Be ready for buses in the middle of the road under narrow bridges.

Roundabouts

Positioning for roundabouts is much the same as for junctions - the approach
helps signal your intentions.

When intending either to turn left or to go straight on, approach in the left-hand
lane and stay in the outside lane of the roundabout there is usually room for two cars to
travel here side-by-side. When you are going any further than the second exit of the
roundabout, approach in the right-hand lane and drive around the inside.

ROAD POSITION AND LANE DISCIPLINE

Where you position your car on the road is dictated by the road and traffic
conditions you are experiencing. On your driving test you will need to keep a safe
position at all times.

In normal circumstances you should position your car in the center of your half
of the road – see image below.

You should avoid driving too close to the kerb, as the road surface here is more
uneven. If you accidentally clip the kerb you may lose control of the car. However, you
may need to move closer to the kerb to:

• make space for oncoming traffic through a narrow gap

• let another vehicle overtake you
• let a motorcycle pass in congested traffic
• increase your vision & safety when approaching a right-hand bend

You will need to move to the right of your lane when:

• making a right-hand turn

• the pavement is busy with pedestrians
• when overtaking a cycle or other road user.

When passing parked vehicles, if possible you should leave enough room for a car
door to open without you hitting it, about a metre. When passing a row of parked cars
don't weave in and out between them. You should maintain a steady, straight course.
When changing lanes or road position you must:

• use the MSM/PSL routine

• plan ahead and make sure you move into the correct lane in good time
• use signals if necessary

One-Way Roads
When you enter a one-way street you should position your car according to whether
you intend to go ahead, turn left or turn right.

• When turning left, keep to the left-hand lane

• When turning right, keep to the right-hand lane
• When going straight ahead let the road markings guide you. If there are no lane
markings, then you will usually need to select the left-hand lane.

Lane Discipline
Always keep within the road markings indicating your lane unless you are changing
lanes or direction.

When changing lanes:

• look well ahead and try to anticipate early your need to change lanes
• use the MSM/PSL routine
• signal in good time
• when safe to do so move into the lane
You must never:
• weave from lane to lane
• straddle two lanes
• change lanes suddenly

Lane markings inform and guide traffic. When approaching a junction, you should
look out for relevant road markings and respond to them as needed. For a full picture
list of road lane markings.

Lane Discipline At Junctions

Where there are two lanes, or room for two lanes that are not marked, unless road
markings or signs show otherwise, when intending to:

• turn left - keep to the left-hand lane

• follow the road ahead - keep to the left-hand lane
• turn right - move to the right-hand lane in good time.

Where there are three lanes, unless road signs and markings show otherwise, when
intending to:

• turn left - keep to the left-hand lane

• follow the road ahead - keep to the left-hand or middle lane
• turn right - move to the right-hand lane in good time.

Where there are two or more lanes marked for the direction you wish to take, (see the
image on the right-hand side) choose the most convenient one. To do this you need to
know where you should be positioned at the next junction.

If you don't know which lane you need to take, road signs and lane markings leading
to the junction should be able to give you the correct guidance.

Unless you need the right lane at the next junction it is normally better to select the left
lane. This will avoid you having to change lanes after you turn. If you select the right-
hand lane for the turn, check carefully to the left after the turn to make sure there is no
one in your blind area before returning to the left lane.

Changing Lanes in heavy Traffic

Look and plan well ahead, reading the signs and markings. This will help you get into
the correct lane in good time. If you do find yourself in the wrong lane in heavy traffic,
avoid trying to change lanes quickly. Use MSPSL and try to make eye contact with a
driver already in the lane you wish to move into. When you are sure the other driver is
letting you in, move over gradually and acknowledge the driver who let you move in.
Before you move, however, check your side mirrors for cyclists and motorcyclists
driving between the lanes.

Road Position When Stationary

When stationary, such as when stuck in a traffic jam, use the 'Tyres and Tarmac' rule:

Always stop far enough behind the vehicle in front that you can see their tyres
touching the road and 1 metre of tarmac.

This space leaves room for you to comfortably pull out and pass should the vehicle in
front break down. It also leaves you room to move out of the way if an emergency
vehicle needs to pass.

Other rules you must observe:

• Never stop so that you block access to a side road or business entrance.
• If you stop alongside a parked car, allow room for the driver to open their door.
• When in a traffic jam, never stop on a pedestrian crossing.
• When you park, never block access to driveways or side roads.
• Do not park opposite bus stops unless there is plenty of room for vehicles to pass
between you and a bus waiting at the stop.
• Never park too close to a vehicle displaying a disabled badge - the occupants may
need room to put a wheelchair in the boot.

General Responsibilities

❖ The driver of a vehicle is responsible for the safe operation and movement of
the vehicle. Driver will avoid backing whenever possible. Where backing is
unavoidable, spotters or traffic cones shall be used. When vehicles must
negotiate forward turns with restrictive side clearances and where height
clearances are uncertain, a spotter or traffic cones shall also be used.

❖ The running boards, fenders, or any part of the vehicle not designed for
passenger use. The operator shall get out of the vehicle and make a complete
360-degree walk around survey of the vehicle to determine if any obstructions
and potential hazards are present in the proposed path of travel. Clear the
area of people and objects if possible. A check shall also be performed to
ensure overhead and side clearances are adequate.

❖ Obtain guidance from a spotter to position/back the vehicle. Make sure the
spotter is aware of all obstacles identified during the initial “walk-around”
survey. The operator will discuss the positioning/backing plan with the spotter
before proceeding. The communication/warning process will be agreed upon
and understood prior to positioning/backing.

Positioning/backing shall not proceed unless the spotter is visible to the

operator and the spotter has a clear view of both the vehicle and obstacle(s).
(if these conditions cannot be met, an additional spotter may be required.)

The Driver shall stop the vehicle immediately prior to losing sight or losing sight
of the spotter, reposition the spotter, and then continue with cautious
positioning/backing to the desired location only after the spotter is repositioned
in a visible location.

❖ The operator shall stop immediately if an emergency “stop” signal is received

from anyone in the area.

❖ If no spotter is available, the operator shall place traffic cones a safe distance
between the vehicle and identified obstacle(s). The Driver shall not proceed
with positioning/backing unless the traffic cones are visible to the operator.

❖ The Driver shall stop the vehicle immediately prior to losing sight of the traffic
cones, reposition the cones, and then continue with cautious
positioning/backing to the desired location. If there is any dispute between the
operator and spotter during the positioning/backing operation.

 ❖ Render assistance to guide an operator in positioning/backing a vehicle when
requested by the operator.

❖ While giving guidance in positioning/backing a vehicle, stand on the ground

clearly in the driver’s line of site. Spotters must stand far enough behind or in
front of the vehicle to observe the positioning/backing path and any
obstructions, and to allow for sufficient stopping distance in an emergency.
Spotters shall not be positioned between the vehicle direction of travel and the
obstacle. Spotters shall stay clear of the vehicle’s path and avoid walking
backward.

❖ Establish and maintain eye contact with the driver and remain in clear view of
the driver at all times. Spotters shall refrain from walking backwards and or
moving back and forth behind the moving vehicle.

❖ Use distinct and deliberate signals. (i.e Industry Recommended Standards)

❖ Immediately signal the driver to stop if any person or object enters the vehicles
intended path of travel.

❖ Signal the driver to stop if the stopper must change positions. The spotter
should then reposition and when ready, signal the driver to continue.

❖ Use hand signals to communicate to the operator positioning/backing a vehicle.

Do not rely on voice communication for this purpose.

Driving a Vehicle

When driving a vehicle in the site the following points should be considered
when preparing vehicle rules.

1. All vehicles driven within the site should use dipped headlights at all times.
2. Ensure that the area around the vehicle is clear before moving away or altering
direction. Where reasonably practicable, large vehicles must never be turned
using full steering lock from a parked position. Any area where the vehicle may
maneuver must first be checked and mist be clear. Where necessary the driver
must exit the cab to check that the area is clear before moving off.
3. Drive with due care and attention and at a speed that is appropriate to the
prevailing ground, weather and visibility conditions. Obey local speed limits
where applicable.

 4. A safe distance must be maintained from the vehicle in front so that emergency
action can be taken. As a practical rule, vehicles must maintain a minimum of 3
large truck lengths (approx. 30 meters) away from the vehicle in front and
further in poor conditions. Particular care should be taken on haul roads that
have been newly sprayed with water for dust suppression purposes.
5. Vehicles will normally be driven on the left-hand side of the road unless specific
instructions are issued or local rules implemented to the contrary.
6. Loaded vehicles always have priority over empty vehicles.
7. Light vehicles must always give way to heavy vehicles and not enter heavy
vehicle areas without permission from supervisors. A safe distance must
always be kept from heavy vehicles.
8. Light vehicles should not travel along areas of reduced visibility on the off sides
of dump trucks without advance communication with the dump truck operator.
9. When vehicles of similar size and capacity are sharing a haul road and there is
a need to give way, the vehicle travelling uphill has priority.
10. Vehicle operators must give way to traffic coming from the right at junctions.
11. Only trucks for loading or tipping purposes may enter the swing radius of an
excavator or maneuvering zone of a dozer or loading shovel. Pedestrians and
other vehicles must not enter the area unless granted permission by the
Supervisor or other designated person and the plant is stationary with the
bucket, blade, ripper or other raised equipment grounded.
12. Broken down or stranded vehicles must be reported immediately to a
supervisor who must assess the situation, organize vehicle recovery
procedures or arrange for the area to be cordoned off by hazard cones or other
suitable means, such as a physical barrier, if appropriate.
13. On no account should a vehicle be driven within any condoned off areas.
14. With the exception of authorized vehicles that have been fitted with suitable
safety devices, road going vehicles must be escorted while being driven within
the quarry working area.
15. Coasting out of gear is forbidden in all circumstances.
16. Overtaking manoeuvers must only be done when safe to do so and with the full
acknowledgement of the operators in front and to the rear. Signals, radio
communication and visual contact must be used as appropriate. Overtaking
must not be attempted where there is not enough road width to do so safely or
on a short road, ramp or blind corner or in wet and slippery or poor visibility
conditions.

 INFORMATION SHEET 2.2-2
Park Vehicle following Safety Techniques

LEARNING OBJECTIVE

After reading this information sheet, you must able to identify the proper parking
following safety procedures and techniques.

Parking

A driver of a motor vehicle is

considered parked after a full stopped
on the shoulder of the road or in a
parking lot, leaving the vehicle with the
engine and ignition stopped and hand
brake on.

Place where parking is prohibited

1. Parking is prohibited on a highway in such a manner as to obstruct a sidewalk,

an entrance to the highway to or from a private road or lane, on entrance-way for
vehicles to pass between the highway and land adjoining the highway.
2. Within 3m. of a point at the edge of a roadway.
3. Within 4m. nearest a fire hydrant.
4. On or within 100m. of a bridge, over or under or across the highway.
5. Within 10m. of the nearest rail of railways crossing.
6. In any area where signs prohibiting parking area displayed.
7. Within an intersection on a highway or if the intersection is controlled by traffic
signal.
8. Within 6m. of a point at the edge of the roadway and nearest to a public entrance
to a hotel, theater or public hall while open to the public.
9. On the places where no parking signs are posted.

Parking on Hills

When car is parked on a hill, take precautions to

make sure it stays there. A car not properly parked on
a hill could roll down into the traffic.

Parking Headed Uphill

When parking headed up hill, turn fronts wheels from curb and let your vehicle
roll back few inches until the rear of the front wheel gently touches the curb. Then set
the parking brake. If there is no curb, turn the wheels toward the side of the road so
the car will not roll away from the center of the road if the brakes fail.

Parking Headed Downhill

When parking headed downhill, turn front wheels into the curb or toward the
side of the road. When parking on a sloping driveway, turn the wheels so that the car
will not roll into the street if the brakes fail always set parking brakes. Leave the
vehicle in gear.

Things to consider in backing a car

1. When backing around a corner to the right or out from a driveway, check first for
traffic and pedestrian.
2. Turn body to the right and put right arm over the back of the seat. Look at the
back windows as well as the rear and front of the vehicle.
3. While backing stay at the right side as much as possible.
4. During all maneuvers make quick checks to the front and sides then continue
looking back until the car stopped.
5. Do not join the traffic readily. Make quick checks over the left and right shoulder
and look through the mirror or rear window. Check speed with the other vehicles
travelling in the same direction.
6. Don’t back up far. Welcome assistance from companions inside the car.

Night Positioning/Backing - Signals will be the same. The spotter will assure that
the spotlights on rear of equipment are turned on before allowing vehicle to be
backed. A flashlight may be carried or reflective material may be worn, but at no time
will it be directed toward mirror.

Signals – When it’s necessary to move a vehicle it’s important that everyone
understand exactly what is being done. There should be no confusion about the hand
signals to be used. The following hand signals should be used. They are not mean
to be all encompassing but provide the minimum basic signals for the driver and
spotter. Other signals needed in particularly difficult areas must be discussed and
agreed upon in advance by the driver and spotter.

In-Car Distractions: The things we have to watch out for on the road are
complicated enough, what with changes in weather and light, unpredictable drivers,
and traffic. But what about the distractions that come from inside out own vehicle?
Consider these:

Passengers: Conversations with passengers can get out of hand, especially if there
is an argument or emotionally heated discussion going on; if someone is trying to
show you how something works or looks; or if someone is talking loudly, laughing or
roughhousing. As your passengers to remain in their seats, with safety belts on, and
to keep their voices lowered and their hands off each other and the driver.

Objects That Obstruct: Be careful about how you load your car. Objects should not
be piled so high that the view from the rearview mirror is obstructed. For the same
reason, don’t place things on the ledge behind the rear seat. Not only do they
obstruct view, but in a sudden stop they could fly forward into the front seat or the
back of your head. If you must hang clothes in your car, hang them only behind the
driver’s seat. Make sure that objects don’t obstruct your ability to steer, shift gears or
look over your shoulder.

Visibility: When driving at night, keep your rearview mirror turned so it doesn’t
reflect the full glare of headlights behind you. Keep your windows clean inside and
out so that you can see clearly even in the glare of oncoming lights. Keep your radio
at a moderate pitch – loud noises impede your concentration.

Driver-Created Distractions: Some in-cat distractions are created by the driver.

Eating, drinking, especially hot drinks, reading maps or newspapers and doing other
chores such as talking on the cellular phone, grooming or writing notes, can be
distracting or even dangerous in themselves.

If you’re driving an unfamiliar vehicle, learn where the controls and warning lights are
before you start driving. Groping around for the windshield wiper control is not a safe
way to negotiate a sudden rainstorm. To be a safe driver, keep things as simple as
possible in your car. You need all of your attention to focus on the distractions on the
outside of your car.

How to Park a Car Perfectly?

With the growing amount of vehicles on our roads, parking is becoming a much
more demanding task. But every problem can be solved if we have a good guideline
and spend our time for it. Same goes with parking.

There are three (3) different types of parking: Angle Parking, Perpendicular Parking
and Parallel Parking.

ANGLE PARKING

Knowing about how to park a car by angle parking way is the thing that every
driver has to know, particularly when they drive in high-traffic areas such as high traffic
areas or parking garages or on one-way streets. Learning to park at an angle is not
easier but it is not impossible for newbies. Here are five (5) steps to do:

Step 1: Find your parking spot

The perfect parking spot for new car owners must be clear and no vehicles
surrounding. If there are no cars around, drivers will not be distracted while parking.

Step 2: Analyze your car position

To be able for drivers to park your vehicle in the right spot while also maintain the
distance with other cars, analyzing the position is necessary.
A simple trick to remember for drivers while parking is the distance. Car owners
should keep about 1.5 m – 2 m from other cars. If there are no cars next to your
parking lot, remember to keep the same distance calculating from the last point of the
line in the spot.

Step 3: Turn on Light Signal

The center point of the parking lot is the place you might want to parking. Also, it is
important to notice if there are any other drivers waiting to park in that spot or stopping
right behind you.
After that, turn on the light signal.

Step 4: Turn The Wheel

When you reach to the suitable point, turn the steering wheel half its rotation and
slowly drive your car until it reaches the final line in the spot.

Step 5: Adjust the Wheel

The wheels should be adjusted to be parallel with the car body in order to drive out the
parking lot easily.

PERPENDICULAR PARKING

Perpendicular Parking is not so hard as many people often think. If you don’t
know how to use perpendicular parking to park your car, let’s see 5 steps below:

Step 1: Analyze Your Position

In this type of parking, drivers need to make sure the distance between their car and
others is at least 2.5 m. This situation is also changed depending on the position of the
parking space, but it is essential to keep the right distance and not overtake other
driver’s parking space.

Step 2: Turn On The Light Signal

Drivers must make sure if there are any

cyclists, walkers or objectives on your way in
order to avoid risk while parking. After that, you
should drive forward until your car’s head is
parallel with the rear combination lamp of the
car besides. Before the turn, remember to
signal other drivers.

After that, drivers begin to turn the wheel to move the car into its parking position.

Give signal is important while parking

Step 3: Drive Your Car Into Position
Car owner should check adjust the mirrors to calculate the distance with other cars
and make sure the car is inside the parking lot completely.

Step 4: Adjust The Wheel

If you do not want to adjust the wheel right away, you can do it when driving out, but it
is easy to forget which leads to unintentional impact or difficulty while driving
backward.

PARALLEL PARKING

With some drivers, parallel parking can be a nightmare for them, but you will master
this type of parking in no time with a bit of practice. Here are 6 steps to help you
know how to park a car by using this method.

Step 1: Find Your Parking Spot

There are many areas require parallel parking, which is marked by white line. The
parking spot should be longer than the car length for about 1 m to 2 m. The longer the
parking lot, the easier for driving to park. If there are cars behind, drivers must signal
them to move backward or drive to the other side.

Step 2: Adjust Your Car Position

1 meter is a right distance to keep away from other cars in order to freely moving and
parking without the thought of damaging them.

Step 3: Move The Head

In order to drive in, car owners must drive
backward until the head of the vehicle is
about 1 m to 1.5 m with the in front car.
In this step, checking the surrounding
regularly to avoid incoming objectives is

essential. After that, drivers can release the brake, then turn the wheel all the way to
the right to slowly drive back in the parking slot.
The 1 m distance should be maintained and if the wheel touches the sidewalk, you
can gas on to move your car forward.

Step 4: Move The Rest

In order to do so, turn steering wheel to the left then drive your car backward. It is
wisely to drive slowly in order to adjust the position easier. Rear view camera will also
make your parking more comfortable.
After this step, the whole body of the car is inside the parking lots.

Step 5: Adjust The Position

Drivers can turn the wheel to the right and slowly drive forward. The car is now parallel
with the sidewalk and other cars so it is easy to adjust the vehicle. The position of your
car and the sidewalk should be about 30 cm when the car stops parking.

Check Vehicle Position

LEARNING OBJECTIVE
After reading this information sheet, you must be able to:
1. Distinguish on how to position the vehicle.
2. Identify vehicle external damage.

VEHICLE SAFETY
Park the car off the road and in a safe pace with the handbrake on the gearbox
in neutral for a manual car or park (P) in an automatic car. You will need to have the
engine running to operate some of the following items, and for others at least the
ignition turned on.

VEHICLE CHECK AFTER LONG TRIP

STEP 1. Clean up the car, inside and outside.
After a few weeks on the road, your
vehicle must be dirty, both inside and
outside, which means that cleaning work
will be a hassle when you go back
home. Removing stains and spills is a
hard but necessary to get your car
looking and feeling good.

STEP 2. Repair the car if something goes wrong during journey.

You may also experience a sudden
breakdown during the trip, even when
everything gets prepared before travel. Stay
calm when something bad happens and try
to fix it so it doesn’t ruin your trip. When you
go back home, do not forget to get that part
repaired and checked again, just in case.

STEP 3. Have the car maintenance and get ready for next journey.
You may have quality time during the
journey, but it is a tiring time for your car.
Therefore, after taking you around different
places for visit, it also deserves a complete
car maintenance, which can not only
improve driving safety and prepare for the
next journey but can also save you the
possible expensive repair costs and avoid
emergencies. If you are tired of doing
maintenance by yourself. People from auto
services can also do that for you providing
expert advice.

Turning position
Good riders are careful to maintain the proper blocking position when they turn.
Position 5
Making a proper right turn (when lane opens up at intersection)
It’s more complicated when approaching an intersection where the lane opens up.
Because the stop line is further out, you must move over from your normal blocking
position in the curb lane to prevent a car from coming up on the inside on the wider
part of the road. Make a shoulder check; move over to the right about 1.2 m from the
edge of the roadway; make your right turn and then make another shoulder check and
move back to the proper blocking position – to the left of the center of the lane.

Position 5A
Making a proper right turn (no change in lane size at intersection)

When approaching an intersection where the right lane remains the same size,
position your motorcycle right of center in the curb lane, make your right turn into the
first available driving lane, then shoulder check and move back to the proper blocking
position to the left of the center of the lane.

Making a proper left turn

Steps to making a properly blocked left turn:

1. Ride in the correct blocking position for the street you are travelling on. As you
approach the intersection, make the necessary lane changes so that you’re in
the left blocking position of the left lane.
2. In the left lane make your turn while maintaining the left blocking position
throughout the turn.
3. After completing the turn, move to the correct blocking position of the street you
turned onto.

Position 6

Proper position for multi-lane streets

To ensure you are most visible to oncoming traffic when preparing to make a left turn,
shoulder check to the left to ensure your lane is clear and move slightly to the left,
close to the center line, before making the turn. Maintain this position throughout the
turn. Once the left turn is complete, shoulder check to the right to make sure your lane
is clear and move slightly to the right of the center of the lane to resume proper
blocking position.

Position 6A

Proper position for single-lane streets

When making a left turn to and from a single-lane street, the proper position is to start
and end your turn slightly to the left of the center of the lane. Maintain this position
throughout and as you complete the turn.

The best protection a rider can have is distance – distance between the rider and
other people’s mistakes. Keeping plenty of space around you gives you two things:

• Time to react to trouble

• Some place to go
