Not suggesting that you do a "Needles left, balls right, 8 decreasing, 3 erect etc" litany! Our SOP is merely to include a positive challenge of 'Flt Instruments' to which the response is 'Checked'. There are surely enough natural curves on a taxiway to verify that without the need for Chipmunk-style weaving!
