Back in the day my father really annoyed a cycling proficiency examiner. The examiner asked us to ride up to a T junction, turn right, pass a parked car and then turn right into a side turning.
Dad had instructed us well, we all came to the T junction, assessed the distance to the parked car and turned right to a road position appropriate for passing the parked car, then stayed out for the right turn. No need for the extra looks and manoeuvres to pull out as the road was obviously clear to turn into it.
And as for the signalling, I failed my first cycling proficiency test because I didn't signal when setting off after the emergency stop. I looked, the road was empty so I didn't signal but the examiner didn't see me look.
