You don't get marked down on the steering technique on the DSA test, as long you show you are capable of controlling your speed smoothly whilst turning.

So what?
Do we really consider hand position as the sole test of whether someone is driving to RC? That is one page out of 100+ and not the most important.

Raising the point that Roadcraft also talks about rotational steering is often met with agitation and annoyance.
I sometimes question whether we have the right type of people as observers.

6 of us on this forum were invited to a meeting some time ago with IAM Examiners and were met with this same attitude including that Roadcraft only allows holding the steering wheel at 10-2.

You need to get your examiners from a wider experience base/background.
