Routes
Where you'll likely practise manoeuvres: This route takes in 7 roundabouts along the way, good practice for exit counting even without a single standout one to call out by name. Kingmoor Road briefly loops out to Hartley Avenue and Caird Avenue and back, which reads as a realistic reverse-manoeuvre opportunity. Expect a change of pace on the A689, a dual-carriageway-style stretch among the residential turns.
Where you'll likely practise manoeuvres: Orton Road Roundabout is the main roundabout practice on this route -- worth paying attention to exit counting there. A stretch of the A689 brings some higher-speed driving into an otherwise residential route. A dense little stretch through Georgian Way, Spencer Street and Brunswick Street brings several turns in quick succession.
Where you'll likely practise manoeuvres: This route takes in 4 roundabouts along the way, good practice for exit counting even without a single standout one to call out by name. Dalston Road briefly loops out to Cummersdale Road and back, which reads as a realistic reverse-manoeuvre opportunity. The A689 adds a faster, more open contrast to the rest of this route's residential roads.
