@@lilaalaoui5058 it depends on how sharp the bends are and what car you are driving. But generally 2nd seems a bit too low, unless a very sharp 90degree bend, like when turning into a side road. I find 3rd or 4th gear are normally best for country road bends. Perhaps 3rd gear in a diesel and 4th in a petrol, as a petrol can cope with higher gear better and pull away, a diesel may struggle to accelerate in 4th gear, but like i say depends on the car a bit.

@@lloydhiggins3008ok cool, i am hoping to make a video on reducing hesitation soon. But in the mean time consider these things: - When at a junction/roundabout look for gaps! many people look for cars and then get overwhelmed - Go to a quiet road and practice drag starts! Moving off promptly and fast. Try this with and without the handbrake and see which you prefer. - Prepare for the gaps, when you see a potential gap it is vital you get your feet ready, so gas and biting point (or just below bite), you do not have to go but you are ready if after double checking it is all good. Many people miss gaps as they do not prepare and by the time they are prepared the gap is gone.

I'd say speed up the boring bits, but I must say I am finding these very useful.

My new instructor has made me doubt my driving abilities completely and also changed cars from a Citeron C3 to a KIA. Have you got any tips that could help me?

@UKDrivingTest

5 жыл бұрын

In terms of changing cars, firstly take it back a few steps by driving on quieter roads to start with, your instructor should be doing this, going onto busy roads and junctions when you are not use to the car will put big dents in your confidence. Sit at the side of the road and practice the controls of the new car, so practice setting the gas and finding the biting point, do it several times until you can do it without thinking. Go to a gentle hill and practice holding the car still by balancing the gas and biting point, move forwards a bit and then re-balance. If it is the gears, again just park up on a quiet road to make sure you can do them while stationary without thinking, if you can then you will only get better while moving by practicing it again and again.

I'm watching this 5 days after passing. It was my 3rd attempt and I had two minor faults. 1st attempt was back in February and i had 12 minors and 1 serious fault for stalling while changing lane at traffic lights. 2and Attempt I had 7 faults and 2 serious faults, 1 was for stopping over the line on traffic lights ( the line was really faded) and meeting situation(I caused a car to slow down as I overtook a parked car)

Old video I know, so hoping to get an answer - 20:15 I thought changing lanes was forbidden on the zigzag lines at pedestrian crossings? Or is that just for overtaking cars?

@UKDrivingTest

10 ай бұрын

It's no overtaking the leading motor vehicle or no parking / stopping. The main thing is to understand WHY. The reason why if the pedestrian crossing creates a risk, if you overtake you view of the crossing would be blocked and you could overtake into the path of a crossing pedestrians. Parking / stopping also creates the same risk due to blocking view of the crossing. Just changing lanes is less risky, as long as you can clearly see both sides of the crossing are clear and no risk of light changing or pedestrian stepping into the road.

Learn from mistakes, look back at junctions which confused you, seek answer, do advanced driving lessons. I do all of this and I feel quite comfortable to drive in any area without prior knowledge, I drove to Leicester a few years ago and it has lots of weird roundabout but i was fine, drive on big motorways with lots of weird layouts, drive abroad, drove to south London yesterday without any issues. But this is only because I have had lots of training and it is my job to understand all these things. I think the key thing is to be calm and confident to drive at the speed your brains needs to be going at to process the information, and also having the confidence to go off route if you mis read something.

I wouldn't say a fault should happen at "27:21" cause it's roadworks so it isn't in your control (due to 1 lane only be available) and the vehicles joining have a give-way point anyway as your already on the roundabout, that's like going around with built up traffic in peak time you wouldn't give way to vehicles who are trying to enter if your already on isn't that the same thing? buuut i might be wrong? Question: What about if the roundabout is traffic light controlled would you wait behind the line or continue through? I'm unsure on this scenario lol

@UKDrivingTest

5 жыл бұрын

Yes you do have priority, however the highway code also states you should keep junctions clear when stopping in traffic ques. The entrance to the roundabout is a junction, so technically the candidate is blocking the junction. If he held back the cars could have entered and gone ahead or turned right at the roundabout, thus reducing traffic ques. If it was traffic lights controlled it is highly likely there would be a yellow box junction, in which case you must not stop there. In fact in London you would get fined if you stopped in a yellow box. Even without a box junction you should not block a junction, if you do you are likely to annoy a lot of drivers.

Should not be long until you get a new test date.

Hi, Can I take the test driving my own car? Should it have the "L" plate somewhere? I am not a learner or new driver at all (I drive since I'm 15, now in my 30's), been driving in the UK in the last months with my international licence, but need to take this test in a few weeks

@UKDrivingTest

As you probably know you can drive in the UK for up to 12 months on your non-UK licence, so no l plates required for that bit. HOWEVER, in order to continue driving after 12 months you need to apply for a UK provisional licence and pass the theory and practical test, for the practical test you can use you car but you must display L plates. www.gov.uk/driving-test/using-your-own-car I would strongly recommend you take some driving lessons for an approved driving instructor before taking a practical test as drivers from other countries often fail their UK driving test several times due to their driving standards not being up to scratch (I believe the pass rate for foreign licence holders with no training is worst than a true learner driver taking their test). Especially important at the moment you only take test when you are ready as test dates are rare, so if you take 6 tests to pass rather than 1 you have used an extra 5 test slots that could have been used by others who are desperate for a test date.

@@UKDrivingTest Thank you for your prompt response. Yes, I've got a provisional UK licence and already passed the theory test before buying my car, now I need to pass the practical test before the 12-months time expires at the end of the year. The only preparation I've done so far is reading the DVSA code and UK traffic code, never took any training in the UK. I have driven in 3 different countries so far and been trained in defensive and safe driving, but perhaps it's worth to book a couple of lessons to assess my skills for the UK standards.

@@m.k.9573 I would defiantly recommend taking some lessons. Speaking from experience everyone needs at least a few lessons before taking a test. Only people that might be ok with no lessons are driving instructors, as they know the standard they are expected to drive to.

@UKDrivingTest

No he should not have stopped, it was amber not red. Trying to stop at that point would have been extremely dangerous as he would have had to do an emergency stop. If you look in the highway code amber means (not exact quote): "You MUST stop behind the stop line, you may only proceed if you have passed the stop line or to stop would cause an accident" Make sure you subscribe to my channel and keeping watching as I am due to make a video about traffic lights soon, they are one of the top 5 reasons people fail, as they either stop when they should go or go when they should stop.

@@angeumuhoza7008 as Diego says it is Crawley, it is only fairly 'quiet' as the road structure is very good for traffic flow. Basically it has lots of roundabouts of all types and lots of fast moving roads, which take lots of practice to master but are very effective at managing traffic flow. An area with high traffic level may seem more difficult but could be easier as it is likely to just be some traffic lights and basic t-jucntions, not very good at managing traffic flow.

that minor fault at 8.47 is a bunch of rubbish. He was extra safe

What if you drive under 30mph in tight areas is that allowed?

@UKDrivingTest

5 жыл бұрын

Good question, something people often get confused and concerns about. It is all about driving at the appropriate speed. Ask your self the question, might I need to brake for something soon? If the answer is "YES" then driving below the speed limit is a good idea, like in your example if the road is tight, perhaps due to parked cars, then you drive slowly incase a door opens of someone steps out. But if you can keep good clearance from the parked cars, about 1 meter, then you should be able to do the speed limit assume there are no other hazards. If the answer is "NO", for example the road is clear and you can see ahead very far, no parked cars, no traffic lights, no junctions, no corner, nothing that is going to cause you to slow then it would be safe to build speed and get near the speed limit. The examiners want to see you driving like a driver, not like a learner.

Lightly, like holding a raw egg. Hold it too tight and you will find you wobble and veer from one side to another. If you find yourself holding it too tight due to nerves then release the grip slightly and move your fingers around a bit to 'loosen' / relax your hands and therefore grip

Yes a lot of people has this misconception, there use to be 2 manoeuvres nearly 10 years ago, but since then there has always been just one reversing manoeuvre. They are more interested in your general driving ability in various situations rather than your ability to reverse. And generally 1 bit of reversing is enough to assess your ability.
