8) Taking more than 8 sec at Slalom (Pylon course)
9) Taking less than 3 sec at Plank

6) Fail to keep left (road hogging)
7) Fail to keep a safe following distance
8) Fail to keep within lane at bend

These actions incur 2 Demerit Points.
1) Excessive revving of engine at slope

2) Incorrect technique at Emergency braking course

3) Incorrect posture when moving off / stopping
4) Delay in moving off
5) Poor acceleration
6) Wobble when moving off / stopping
7) Stall engine repeatedly
8) Slow in restarting stalled engine
