Driving is not hard, be aware of everything around you and never forget that most drivers on the road are a danger to themselves and everyone else 😂 I think if someone fails a driving test anymore than 3 times should be banned from operating a motor vehicle 😮

After passing a year ago, I cannot stress enough how important it is to start driving immediately and get those hours behind the wheel under your belt. I got on the motorway on my own from Hertfordshire to Nottingham after about 3 weeks of passing my test. It was disorientating in the beginning with the multiple lanes and keeping an eye on all the cars around me, but you need to be brave. With that drive I learnt the real value of the blind spot check e.g. to look for that car moving into the middle lane from the far right lane when you are trying to move into the middle lane as well from the left lane. Be brave and trust the skills you built up during your lessons. If you dont have the confidence to be brave then all I can say is that there is no rule against taking more lessons after you pass. When you are ready and only you will know when, take charge and get out there. You will soon learn to spot the lunatics and trouble makers.

Props to this guy trying to get better, he's taking the logical enough view that hitting a stationary object requires an intervention; I think most people either wouldn't care or would feel too resigned to the situation to take charge of it. (Can't believe the UK still has the lifetime licensing!)

It's kind of obvious he is a nervous wreck, and even I would be. There's driving without being watched/judged and then there's test conditions, which whether you want to or not will automatically impact your driving skill, whether by over-compensating or under-compensating.

This style of video was more intriguing than I thought. I'm closing on 50 years old and I took my license when I was 18. However, I recently took the trailer test and I was surprised at some of the things the examiner commented on. So I've been very self conscious of my driving since then and I've thought back on how much of my driving "career" i could've spent becoming a better driver. This channel will help me digest this. A bonus is that my own kids are at the age when drivers license is a topic. So, it will also help me prepare them when we're practice driving, but also I will have better habits as they're starting to pay more attention to my driving and trying to learn.

"No mirrors before signaling" This is a weird one as in Finland we are specifically instructed to start signaling and then look at the mirrors before starting to switch lanes.

But you wouldnt believe the silly things you do when being watched that you probably never do alone! Lots to learn in this video for all of us, esp the person driving and being tested in the video.

I appreciate nerves can make you do some daft things in situations like this but he's doing far too many for them not to be a driving trend. Some of these may seem quite minor but they lead to crashes all the time and people not checking their n/s mirrors have injured or killed countless cyclists and now scooterists so not really a minor fault. I'm the first to say that I would pick up faults myself on a test but I have driven over 3 million miles a only scratched one car in my blind spot so I hope that's not just been luck.

You can tell that he improved as the test went on, even if all of his fundamentals were still lacking towards the end you could tell that he was starting to pick things up again. It's obviously a case of someone who doesn't have much confidence or time behind the wheel. Both of those are easily fixed with either refresher courses and more time driving. Hopefully he's getting on well with his driving now!

Let's take a moment to appreciate how sincere the guy was accepting his fault and keeping the conversation friendly throughout. And to be honest I found his driving quiet safe and responsible. Way to go buddy❤

Honestly I'd be terrified if a sign was coming at me at 10mph. Those things are usually completely planted into the earth.

That sky!!! Loved this episode!

I like the way you find new ways of helping us after so many videos that covered pretty much everything possible...but still...I was wondering if you could make a video about, well, let's say car awareness. Having to avoid an obstacle close to the wing mirror is different from escaping one close to the back of the car, for example. Those little things and tricks can be helpful in situations where our brain tends to complicate what's simple. Or maybe you already made one of those I didn't catch. In any way, thank you so much for your work. Sometimes I find myself singing 'only a fool breaks the 3 second rule' on the highway 😊

Great video guys, loved it. Think some of the driving errors were nerves, as in mirrors checks got a little better, through out the video, but fair play to Andrew , I'm not sure I'd want my driving analysed on camera lol.. but may have a private lesson to see what my driving is like now

Interesting discussion at the end about drivers passing and then not practicing for years. That was my situation too. In Ireland you're a novice driver for two years after passing and not allowed to rent a car. Since I don't have friends or family that could put me on their insurance, I basically had to wait two years, then do refresher lessons and then practice in a rented car by myself.

I've been driving over 10 years now and I'd be interested in doing this. I recently passed my motorcycle test with 1 minor across both mod 1 and mod 2 so I'd be really interested to have a go and see what bad habits I've picked up driving.

I was NOT expecting this collaboration haha

Really good video here. Poor driver was nervous to be fair and the advice at the end from the examiner there about new drivers not keeping in touch with their skills just reminds me of how sometimes I can be over confident. Brilliant video though and lots of refreshing pointers. PS. Hope that new driver gets it sussed and passes next time round 👍

I feel like his lack of care and overconfidence in his driving skills is through the roof, while he comes off as polite he is way too chatty and relaxed considering the series of serious driving faults that he did not even consider. I can appreciate him coming here because he wants to learn and be a better driver at least.

It's better for him to be relaxed than overly nervous. He definitely is nervous, but he's not so nervous that he's anxious. Anxious driving is bad because it's another thing for your mind to keep track of

@@frostyslife1729 To be honest he is very immature, naïve and detached from reality. Too much time in his bedroom on a games console living in a fantasy world has stunted his development. I suspect he also has some kind of learning disability that he needs help with. Driving is the last thing he should be doing.

This video was some useful insight. Now I understand why I see so many people sitting in the right lane or how some people start switching lanes on me (forcing me to break so they don't swing into my car). People aren't checking their surroundings at all...

5:38 This was how I knew I'd passed my test or was very close to passing. It was my second attempt and after being so nervous the first time around I was completely zen the second time and then he asked me this. We had sat in silence up until that point and then realised my examiner was guiding us back to the test centre and I couldn't have been more happy.

Two or three things here, one he doesn’t seen to be taking it seriously.Two bearing in mind he was technically on his best behaviour ‘test conditions’ what does he normally do? As a former ADI, I would have told him to definitely get some more tuition. On the plus side it should remind us all that there are some things that we may have slipped on, since taking our tests.

very interesting and well-documented mock test (like the other ones). Driving takes, like everything, practice, practice, practice. I am from Italy and I'll say that, if on one side, I am amazed by the professionality of the examiners (I suppose they more or less all behave like Richard) and by the impressive accuracy of the evaluation system compared to here; on the other, I actually wonder how this guy could pass such thorough of a test, considering all the minor and serious faults he committed (I don't mean to offend😅)

If you pass and don't drive, then you lose what you have learnt quickly.

I was also observing faults made by other drivers. One stopped on a zebra crossing before a roundabout, another didn't give way to a car turning right at a mini roundabout and what about the HGV that tore past in the left lane at the lights where you had to use the dual brake. I think the lights were on red before it cleared the junction.

Fascinating. I'd be up for this. I passed 20 years ago and I have often wondered if I'd pass nowadays. If you are looking for another victim, give me a shout. I'm in Southend so its not far.

ibx2cat appearing on this channel is a crossover I did not know we needed!

I passed 3 years ago well 3 and a half years ago. I have kept upto date with doing everything right and I still watch mock tests and driving videos til this day. After 3 years I started teaching my wife and got her to the point i thought she ready for test. We booked test for 10 weeks away and then wanted to find a driving instructor for last few weeks to make sure i am rigt and have taught her properly and get rid of any bad habits I may have given her. During the first lesson instructor said she is pretty much perfect and to move up the test. I would love to do one of your mock tests to make sure my driving is as good as I think it is.
