I hope this is right place to post this.<br \/>\nFollowing are the mistakes I am finding difficult to prevent:<\/p>\n<p>1. I get blinded <b>when joining a right turn into traffic from left side due to Front Passenger and Passenger-side B-Pillar<\/b> (I hope you got idea). I find this much more dangerous than blinding reported by people due to A-Pillar.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/forum\/attachments\/street-experiences\/272488-some-driving-mistakes-i-make-help-appreciated-left-traffic-blinded.jpg\" >Attachment 272488<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. I find difficult to <b>judge the distance b\/w my car and car in front left side<\/b> in close slow traffic(esp those cars which have low height in comparison to mine). So have clapped my left ORVM\/body with their right ORVM many times(had to pay for breaking ones ORVM once :Frustrati).<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/forum\/attachments\/street-experiences\/272490-some-driving-mistakes-i-make-help-appreciated-left-car-distance.jpg\" >Attachment 272490<\/a><\/p>\n<p>3. Taking 90 tight degree turn using a lot of gap (is this ok?). The below picture will make it clear:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.team-bhp.com\/forum\/attachments\/street-experiences\/272489-some-driving-mistakes-i-make-help-appreciated-90-deg-turn.jpg\" >Attachment 272489<\/a><\/p>\n<p>4. <b>Starting car up an incline without rolling backwards at-all<\/b> (esp at traffic-lights with cars behind). I tend to either stall my car or give too much throttle with clutch. Also forget handbrake on at-times .<\/p>\n<p>5. Cannot park my car at close spaces without anyone assisting me.<\/p>\n<p>Helpful Advice\/links to prevent\/reduce the  above mistakes will be highly appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nApart from above, other mistake I made once\/twice due to my utmost silliness:<\/p>\n<p>&#8211; Leaving Passenger side Window fully rolled down one evening when parking in front of house.
