Practice question
Why should driving instructors avoid using vague directional terms like 'Turn right over there' and instead use precise landmarks and distance markers?
- Vague terms are legally mandatory under cantonal ordinances
- Driving instructors are forbidden from using street names
- Precise instructions (e.g. 'At the upcoming roundabout, take the second exit toward Bern') provide clear situational orientation, prevent sudden last-second panic maneuvers, and allow timely scanning/signalling
- Learners must guess what the instructor wants to build intuition
Answer: C — Precise instructions (e.g. 'At the upcoming roundabout, take the second exit toward Bern') provide clear situational orientation, prevent sudden last-second panic maneuvers, and allow timely scanning/signalling
