Just wondering if it was ok to pull up on the right - just thinking about facing on coming traffic ??

[@Nav1g8r1]

Yes, it's fine. The "park on the right and reverse" manoeuvre was added by the DVSA for driving tests, a long time ago now.
It's a routine that you have to follow when prompted.
Wether that is then acceptable by the highway code, that's debatable!

[@ngogo9070]

was it wise to let opposite cars pass first at 28:50 , to me it was a small gap for 3 cars?

[@Nav1g8r1]

The camera can make the space look smaller than it is, so it looks like the space was wide enough for the cars to pass.
There was no minor recorded by the examiner.

Was it ok to park the car in kerb in the left side?

[@Nav1g8r1]

Not really. The examiner asks to park with all four wheels on the road.
