The common belief is that if you wait too long at a junction, then you will fail. This is not true, which is why I have made the video below to explain to you what this fault is, and why you should not rush at a junction and commit a serious error due to lack of knowledge.
It takes practice and experience to pass the UK driving test, so take your time and drive safely!
