I actually had a weird experience with this recently, I drove the newest car I've even driven recently, and something about how it's automatic transmission was set up meant that going down hill, it basicially always kept speeding up, there was no engine braking whatsoever in Drive without using manual mode to shift down a gear or two, it was really annoying, but I've found that a lot of people have no idea that you can even shift manually/hold gears in most automatics cars in one way or another, and thus they just always use the brakes to not speed up or go too fast down a hill.

The part about braking is on point. Working at a go kart track for 4 years, I learned to drive with my eyes. Meaning, I'm looking at what's going on in front of the driver in front of me first. Then, the driver's momentum or cars behavior. This is why i don't always brake when i see brake lights. Because there's a lot of times people will brake just to brake, without actually slowing down.

I can't do that when I'm tailing the idiot in front so I have to brake in case only to find out there's nobody in front.

I realized the other day that my dad brakes with his left foot, and thus he leaves it on the brake pedal all the time, and occasionally he'll be accelerating with the brakes slightly pressed, making the brake lights come on as he speeds up. And of course, a lot of people who have never driven a manual, will do left foot braking all the time, and it's quite annoying to see, but yeah just like you say, because of bs like that you end up driving with your eyes, actually paying attention to a cars behavior on the road more than their random slight brake taps.

7:40 - engine braking - I spent about a year with my first EV not realizing that regenerative braking did actually activate the brake light. I was constantly concerned that people tailgating me would hit me if I just needed to make a small speed adjustment that could use regenerative braking. Turns out I just looked like a psycho with brake lights flashing on the highway as I let regen braking do more stopping than I otherwise would have.

@@Ryleeman54number2 It's extremely easy to do if you're used to it and actually takes significantly less effort than standard braking since you're just lifting your foot, but it's a major change from normal and requires a couple hours of driving to get the feel for. At least that is the case for me, took about 2 hours of driving and then I was able to accurately predict how quickly to lift my foot to stop at the line.

[@AmazingLube]

I agree some people don't understand the concept of engine breaking. Especially on motorcycles where the effect is multiple times harder because of the low weight, I regularly have cars almost crashing into my rear just because I released the throttle a bit. My 800ccm V4 engine breaks so hard I technically don't have to break at red lights, I would just need to downshift all the way to first gear but because of cars behind me I always lightly tap my break to trigger the light.

[@Hiddenus1]

I'd say it's more about not keeping a proper distance. I didn't know that motorcycles slow down faster, but then again I rarely see any bikes around where I live, but I generally assume they're more dangerous (by not behaving like a 4-wheel would and general approach that driver is a "soon-to-kidney-donating idiot") and I keep larger gap between me and a bike. Since you drive on a bike, you're in higher risk being hurt, so I wish you safe travels and trust no one on roads.

[@ghoulbuster1]

dumbass auto drivers do that

[@stevesamuel263]

Engine braking shouldn't be used in the city tbh, the mental effort of judging distance from the car in front of you really adds up over a long commute in city traffic. Much better to just use your brakes lightly, the brake light keeps everyone well-informed and safe. Just cause someone CAN do something doesn't mean they necessarily want to or should. For example, I CAN manually shift between gears to maximize fuel economy on commutes, but I'd much rather just drive on auto rather than putting in the effort to save a couple dollars in fuel and wear after a long day of work.

Here are some things I would like to drop from my experiences driving in Dallas that really grind my gears: 1. Some drivers would rather pick near-death experience than miss their turn/exit. Seriously, how hard is to take few seconds to plan and prepare your route? 2. People who randomly steps on brake for no reason. Either they're too anxious, under the influence, distracted, or lost. To fix that, y'all need to get familiar with the road, never drive impaired, and plan your routes 3. Those on their phones while driving. Pretty self explainatory, it's more dangerous than drunk driving. Yeah, how would you like if I shove your phone up your ass for a full immersive mobile experience? 4. Going too damn slow on the highway. Like 20 below the speed limit of the highway. That'll make people to slam their brake and possibly ending in a crash. This'll also create phantom traffic jams behind as people will start brake chains. Too damn slow is just as dumb as too fast. If you cannot catch up with the speed of the highway, stay on surface streets. 5. Not turning on your headlight or having high beams on all the time. I mean most cars have dashboard telling you on these. And you can easily confirm this visually. So I don't get how people are so careless. When you tried to let them know with headlight signal (off and on quickly), they don't get it. These are what I experienced the most in Dallas. Stay safe y'all!

My ex wife was horrible. Destroyed car after car. Her father was no better. In the 5 yrs i was with her she destroyed 7 cars and her father destroy 3. He claimed the accidents were not his fault. Your fault or not its still a accident. 90% are preventable if use defencive driving. And hard braking happens less if stay back from others and watch ahead

[@Jakub680]

That’s crazy

[@shawnkelly695]

Jakub680 ya its crazy. I bought a nice car and 2 weeks later she went through a construction zone. Hit a bump so hard she broke the frame and the engine hit the hood. Got a ford focus and in the city on a dry day she lost it and hit the curb so hard both tires on right side were side ways. I spent a month rebuilding that car. Axles, control arms, strutts, ball joints, tires, rims and a few smaller parts. Not even a week later she flew past 4 road closed signs that road was flooded. She was going so fast that she made it about 60 feet. The water flooded the engine and half way up the dash. Got her a isuzu trooper. That thing was built. Well she took at 4 cars and wrote it off. Got her a pick up truck and she took out a curb and there it was parked. Wouldnt move. When she had beginners she flying down a road doing 240 kmh ( 145 mph ) and when i said slow down she yelled at me. A road she never drove on that i know and many died but my god she yelled at me. I drove 15 yrs 10 of that as a truck driver. But her with beginners knew more. I wouldnt ever drive that fast on those roads. Interstate maybe but my god that woman had no brains.

[@CJ-hu4cs]

See, i have lights on my odometer on, check engine, low tire pressure, oil leak and now even one of my brake lights is out. Im in the process of getting them fixed but its incredibly expensive and the only way I can do my job is with my car.

So happy to see that notification from you!

Thank you soo much for mentioning the types of drivers who cut into transit or cycle lanes, I don’t like cars but it’s nice to see a car enthusiast who agrees that there’s too many bad/entitled drivers out there.

[@dogjr2fast4u75]

6:36 I was always worried about this happening back when my mom had a Chevy Spark. It would always be hidden in the space between other much bigger cars, and we'd always see people who try to pull into the space and realize "oh s**t, there's a car there." Luckily nobody yeeted into it but I was always worried about that happening.

If you can't drive you technically have a clean driving record, and you've never sped, even 1mph over the limit...... So i guess depending on how you look at it, you'd be a better driver than everyone that can drive.

[@Liggliluff]

(1:55) In that image, that is a shared car-tram lane, and it's perfectly fine to drive in it. The only time it isn't okay is if it says it's only for trams, busses or the like. No such context is given in the 1:55 image. - I get that you just pulled some random Google streetview image to show something. But it is a bit misleading

on the street at 1:50 you can actually drive on the tram tracks (in Russia you can drive on them if they are in the middle of the road and not separated from the road and there's no sign that prohibits that)

1:51 the image shows people on tram rails. To give you some nerd context: in Russia (the place I guess the photo is taken in) you are actually required to do a left turn from that lane if its not separated by a road marking, a border and there's no signs above that require you to, say turn only left from the left lane...

[@tookanl5811]

The blind turns I usually take on my way home from work I often pass the speed limit to get to home quickly that the realization from all that down force for going fast that I learned how scary it is plus after many incidents that took in the same turn made me think clearly on driving safely

Small note on #2 Many places in Europe the tram tracks are actually part of the road and drivers are allowed to use them. Countries such as Hungary and Romania that is an everyday thing especially in bigger cities.

[@RatelHBadger]

7:20 interesting point about brake lights. Apparently there's an error in some EV'S where if you use regenerative braking, the tail lights don't come on. So say you're crawling in traffic (but not slow enough for creep mode) and don't apply the brake manually, so the car effectively engine brakes. The tail lights don't light up. Meaning the car behind you, doesn't know that you're suddenly about to go from 30 to 10 or 0 in the next 5 seconds. Wouldn't be surprised if there is an increase in low speed nose to tails because of this flaw.

[@mcnuggatron2129]

6:55 This is something I've never understood. It makes no sense to search for a closer parking spot in the Walmart lot for 15 minutes to save yourself 200 extra steps when you're about to go inside and walk, often times, over a mile. My mom always did this when I was a kid, and it always confused me. Now, anytime I'm driving with her, I park literally as far away as I possibly can like the little pick I am lol

My gf has made the good observation about me getting irritated at people being bad drivers, it’s bc they don’t like driving so they just don’t care. We love driving so it’s like a dance it’s scared and amazing to us but to most people they just see it as a way to get places so they don’t care about anyone else on the road or following the proper etiquettes. They same way we wouldn’t care as much if we didn’t like driving.

One thing that pisses me off are people who fly over speedbumps at 50 km/h, and then expect me to do the same when I'm in front of them. They can wreck their suspensions all they want, but I'm crossing speedbumps at 25 to preserve mine.

[@NeedForSpeed.2004]

Also, if you’re on a 2 lane rural road that might be a bit narrow and there’s an oncoming car, give them some space so that they don’t have to drive partially off the road to get by you.

[@NeXMaX]

#9! I can relate to #9 so damn much!! I have a friend who drives a Yaris and the dude literally NEVER drives without having at least one hand GLUED to an iPhone. And you can very obviously see that it was affecting his driving, whether that’s delayed reaction times or drifting into other lanes during bends. He deadass told me that he’d be even worse had he not used his phone as a fidgeting device. The worst part? His car not only had a phone mount, IT ALSO HAD CARPLAY. I’m driving myself from now on. I may have some rough edges to polish in my driving, but I sure as hell keep both hands on the wheel and keep my phone away or on a proper phone mount for directions…

[@jayvaldez425]

the parking further back in your parking space to be visible is something i learned as a motorcycle rider. honestly most bikers are probably better drivers than non bikers because we are foced to be more cautious on our bike and it just becomes second nature

[@roelsvideosandstuffs1513]

4:14 About yellow lane. I forgot who teach me this. But if you look at left mirror. If you see the yellow lines moving in parallel and a bit far from the right side if your mirror , it means you are not in the yellow. But if it is parallel and one point is touching the right side of your mirror then you are in the yellow lane.

[@creakid]

In order to counter incoming bad drivers crossing yellow lines, you should hunk before each blind curve as a precaution. Or, you can briefly cross the yellow lines just right before the blind right-hand curve in order to scare that car to back away from crossing the yellow lines.

[@aaronevans5635]

In trucks that are newer there is a system that engages the brake lights when the engine brake is activated. As well as on buses equipped with an Exhaust Brake it is supposed to activate the brake lights indicating they are slowing down because it’s fully capable of bringing the vehicle to a complete stop with minimal actual braking

Lane switching can work. But only when you learn the traffic patterns on a route you use regularly.

[@TheApp9]

Absolutely, but not often switching. For example: I known a place where the left and middle lane are going together. The right remains. All „fast drivers“ go left. Thinking they can sprint in front of all. But when you not too early, not too late, change to the right lane, you can see them overtaking you. But when it comes to the specific point, it Stopps and you overtake 20-40 cars. But after this, when cars are accelerating and getting more space between them, it is time to wait for a big gap and change to the left.

(4:40) Calling it "crossing mustard" is a very American phrase xD Because most of the world doesn't have yellow middle lines. I do give you that a yellow middle line is a great design, and something USA does right. It's most absolutely necessary and most of the world does fine. But if we're were to have global traffic standards, I could see having a yellow middle line be beneficial.

[@asdatrollys8944]

It’s not exactly related to the video directly but you talking about not going faster than your car can stop made me think about it. I work in a garage and there’s this thing that I’ve noticed. Almost every single time someone comes in with an Instagram handle plastered on their car they have stock brakes and no name brand tyres. They often want to brag about power with putting in the effort needed to control it. Never upgrade your engine until you have dealt with brakes and tyres MINIMUM. Power should always be your last mod. get your platform ready by doing brakes, suspension, tyres, bracing and taking care of any other weak points in your platform. Then you can safely increase power incrementally until your power is at the ideal level for your platform to use effectively at your own skill level. Ask anyone experienced and they will tell you, If you do power first then you will crash because A. You aren’t experienced enough to know that it’s a bad idea. B. Your car will not be able to stop.

[@leogreck9984]

there is no modification more effective then good tires in my opinion. Better stopping, better acelerating, better cornering. Few things you can change on a car do all those 3 things and all of those very effectively.

[@asdatrollys8944]

I do Lane hopping because in Germany you have to drive in the most right lane and only pass someone on the left, so driving on the right lane, hopp in the middle, hopp in the left one (only if someone is also driving in the middle) pass them and back to the right

The funniest and perhaps saddest part of this video is the a-pillar lane thing because its not a driving technique, not somthing you need taught, it is literally just basic depth of field and object permanence.
