| 5.10 | During the execution of manoeuvres in Part Two, all moving-off and stopping errors shall be recorded, in the appropriate section of the test report. |
| 5.11 | During turning speed judgement, the score (penalty points) value displayed on the electronic clipboard shall be entered in the appropriate block. |
Example:
Turning speed judgement
| 5.12 | Only when the electronic clipboard displays "Slow" in a direction, two further attempts to obtain a points reading in that direction shall be allowed. Should a reading of "fast" be displayed and no boundary lines have been touched a value of zero (0) shall be entered and be regarded as an even number. |
| 5.13 | Should no reading be displayed at the third attempt in a specific direction or if a boundary line of the curve is touched, a circle shall be drawn around the appropriate square and the test discontinued. |
Example:

| 5.14.1 | Should the P.points as in 5.14 be 6 and 5, the sequence will be "Even/Odd" (E/O) and the test shall be carried out as indicated in the table. To avoid confusion cross off each action after completion. |
| 5.14.2 | Should the applicant carry out an incorrect manoeuvre, a maximum penalty point of 25 shall be recorded in the appropriate block, and another attempt will be allowed, if any attempts are still available. |
5.15 Emergency Stop
During this manoeuvre the stopping distance of the motorcycle shall be recorded opposite "ACTUAL" under the heading "STOP".
| 5.15.1 | Calculation of stopping distance |
The actual distance ("20") shall be determined by measuring vertically from the front end of the front tyre to the calibrated line.
Should this point not coincide with a calibration mark, the previous calibration line crossed shall be taken as the actual stopping distance.
The "Standard" stopping distance ("16") which appears on the electronic clipboard display, shall be recorded on the test report opposite "STANDARD" under the heading "STOP 1". The difference between "ACTUAL" and "STANDARD" ("4") shall be recorded opposite "PENALTY POINTS" under the same 'STOP 1" heading.
(For the above mentioned see example below).
| 5.15.2 | Should the applicant touch a boundary line of the straight patch or stop with any part of the motorcycle protruding further than the 45th calibration mark line, draw a circle around the appropriate black block "T-line" and discontinue the test. |
5.16 Emergency swerve
During the emergency swerve, the point at which the rear wheel of the motorcycle crosses the calibrated line "K-L", shall be recorded opposite "Actual". Should the applicant swerve beyond the 7th calibrated mark, but without touching lines "M - N", "0 - P" the "actual" mark to be recorded shall be 7.
| 5.16.1 | Calculation of swerving distance |
Should the rear wheel of the motorcycle not cross on a calibration line. take the next line beyond the calibrated STOP LINE as the crossing point and record that as the "ACTUAL" cross point("4"). The required "standard" readout on the electronic clipboard shall be recorded opposite "STANDARD" on the test report ("7"). The difference between "STANDARD" and "ACTUAL ("3")shall be recorded opposite "PENALTY POINTS".
Example:
| Left | Right |
| 5.16.2 | Should the applicant touch the boundary lines of the straight patch, or the line "O - P" or "M - N" or fail to stop in time and touch an outer boundary line, draw a circule around the appropriate black block. |
| 5.16.3 | Should any of the manoeuvres give a reading of "Fast", but be done within the maximum standard allowed, zero (0) penalty points shall be recorded. |
Example:
|
(a) |
Emergency stop: |
The stopping distance does not exceed the 25" calibration mark as calculated in 5.15.1 and |
|
(b) |
Emergency swerve: |
The swerve distance is not less than the 5th calibration mark, as calculated in 5.16.1. |
| 5.17 | Cut-off points Part Two |
An applicant will fail Part Two of the test if:
| 5.17.1 | he/she has exceeded 90 penalty points, or |
| 5.17.2 | a circle has been drawn around any black block. |
| 5.18 | Recording of time |
Actual Start time - The actual time of the day for commencement of Part 1 of the Test.
Actual Finish time - The actual time of the day the test finishes.
The examiner shall enter these times on the test report in the applicable blocks.
