6.0 Lane Position Selection
The student utilizes critical thinking, decision-making, and problems olving skills to operate the vehicle and perform basic maneuvers in controlled risk, low risk, moderate risk, and complex risk environments including basic vehicle control, space management, selected sections of the rules of the road, lane changing, turnabouts and parking.

6.1.1. select the appropriate lane for space management, legal requirements, and destination.
Lane position usage while driving straight ahead
The student is expected to:
6.2.1. select a lane position to give best separation from closed or changing zones/space; and 6.2.2. demonstrate ability to place vehicle in appropriate lane position.
Lane position usage while parking
The student is expected to:
6.3.1. select a lane position to give best separation from closed or changing zones/space; and 6.3.2. demonstrate ability to place vehicle in appropriate lane position.
Lane position usage while turning around
The student is expected to:
6.4.1. select a lane position to give best separation from closed or changing zones/space; and 6.4.2. demonstrate ability to place vehicle in appropriate lane position.
Lane position usage while approaching curves and hill crests
