A piece of advice for those taking their 外免切替 practical from someone who failed today

I didn’t see this in the “Rules of the Road” book or any of the threads I checked before taking the test so I thought I would share information and maybe help someone pass on their first try and not wait 2.5 months for the next chance.

About me:

California Driver for over 10 years.

Test center:

Fuchu, Tokyo

Reason for failing:

When turning failing to hug the side of the lane in the direction you’re turning. Left, hug the left side of the lane, right hug the right side of the lane before turning. Apparently turning and moving your car before you turn are different points.

I’ve seen people say that because the lanes are so large it’s easy to drive, but “turning too wide” is also a fault, as it was for me.

Sorry if this is common knowledge and good luck on your exam!
