Questions / G2 road test
Answer first · reviewed August 2026
Can I turn right on red during the G2 test?
Where permitted, you may turn right after a complete stop and only when the way is clear of traffic, pedestrians and cyclists. A red-light prohibition sign or unsafe gap means wait.
Make it practical
What to do
Stop before the line, scan, creep only if visibility requires it, then check again before turning.
Easy to miss
The common trap
Rolling behind the vehicle ahead because it already ‘checked’ for you.
Turn knowledge into a habit
How to practise it
Practise the skill on several unfamiliar roads until you can perform it safely without a prompt. The route can change; the habit must travel with you.
When a rule, road sign or examiner instruction conflicts with an internet tip, use the official rule and the safe decision. The internet has many talents; wearing a reflective examiner vest is not one of them.
