1. Observation at junctions – ineffective or bad observation and judgment.
2. Reverse Parking – ineffective observation and/or lack of accuracy.
3. Use of Mirrors – not checking often enough, and/or not acting on the information.
4. Reversing Round a Corner – ineffective observation and/or lack of accuracy.
5. Incorrect use of Signals – giving misleading signals, or forgetting to cancel them.
6. Moving away Safely – ineffective observation.
7. Incorrect Positioning on the Road – particularly at roundabouts and on bends.
8. Lack of Steering Control – steering too early or too late.
9. Incorrect Position for turning right – at junctions or one-way streets.
10. Inappropriate Speed – driving too slowly or too quickly.

That looks like the leaflet that used to be given to candidates who had just passed their car theory test. It was based on test results in 2004.
