Driving.

Driving Test (UK) - Details of special arrangements for dyslexic adults taking the UK Driving Test are here. (John Bradford).

Left or right when driving - when in the car and going somewhere with someone I ask them to say your way or my way for which way to go. (Mel, WI, USA).

Giving directions - I get lost so easily, and reading a map is very hard for me. I never know if I am going north or what. I make written directions like 'Go left on Blah Street', and never let people tell me 'Go along, or up, or down'. Instead I like it if they write 'Go to Mary Street' and then say 'It's one past John Street, and if you see Rob Street, turn around.' Also I need a full set of instuctions to make it home again. I can't just remember how to do it . (SL, Canada).

A method that you use.

Please send us an email with details of your own technique. Please put 'Dyslexia Adults Link - Hints and Tips' in the title of your email.
