I was taught never to break while actually going round a bend, always adjust your speed first before the bend. That’s the most basic rule to stick too.

You actually can and it’s called trail breaking. You should still adjust your speed before the turn and if needed, brake gently and let off gently mid curve.

I think you're right not to use technical terms such as "limit points". It turns learners and novices off. When cornering, I tend to apply SLIGHT acceleration to keep the car balanced. Vert very slight, and accelerate if necessary once the cornering is completed.

All good advice, and shot in nice weather. All the more important when the surface is not so good, when negotiating curves. Also, while there weren’t any cyclists or horse riders in your footage, the presence of them is another reason to adjust speed depending on visibility, not just the limit. Incidentally, the car you used had a “head up” speed display. Comparing it’s values with your GPS related speed display is typical; all cars overdisplay a bit. I know the co-ordinate rate of change method of calculation is not good on curves, but on the straight your car display is around 5% fast or so. This is typical on account of the international standards that have to be complied with by the manufacturers.

Very clearly presented and good video technique. I try to use acceleration sense whenever possible rather than braking before getting to a corner or needing to reduce speed. There is a road between Braintree and Witham in Essex which the police use to test how well their drivers can progress with minimum braking and acceleration sense. I have practiced on that road myself and learnt a lot on how to minimise braking. Not easy on that particular very bendy road.

It's been a while since this video was uploaded, which was absolutely helpful, and the quality is outstanding! I just have a doubt, which hopefully it won't be too late for you guys to answer, all these principles to keep stability while cornering, could be applied on a steep slope corner? I mean, while going downhill? Because the momentum that the car will gain in this condition will make accelerating even a bit, a lot more dangerous while going downhill, the speed will increase significantly, and of course using the breaks while cornering is something that must be avoided as explained in the video. at least that's the scenario in my mind haha. So while going downhill, should we just downshift and use the brakes as much as possible to enter the corner as slow as possible and just use momentum without accelerating to exit the corner?
@AdvanceDrivingSchool2 жыл бұрын
Yes, on steep gradients select a lower gear for more engine braking and use the actual brakes as much as necessary. Keeping the car speed low will reduce the chance of losing control.

At 4:10 they talk about how it's bad to break while turning. However in som cases, breaking gently while entering a corner, shifts the weight of the car to the front, which results in the front wheels to get a better grip on the road.

Which means there is less weight on the rear wheels.... Driving like that is best left for the track.

my question was how do you drive downhill and change gears at the same time because you put your foot over the clutch and change the gear .. while putting your foot over the brake right ? how do i lift the clutch up without stalling ? do i have to get the bite between clutch and gas ? if i do that the car will pick up speed because of the gas, this confuses me very much because every time i go downhill i change gears and put my foot over the brake and lift the clutch up slowly and the car goes much slower and it just seems wrong .. i dno if it's just me but it's always bothered me
@AdvanceDrivingSchool6 жыл бұрын
+hannahbby Firstly, it’s ok to change down gears without pressing the accelerator pedal, and actually this is normal when slowing down for a junction or when driving downhill. Sometimes the driver will continue braking whilst changing gear, and sometimes they won’t - it just depends on how much they need to slow down or the gradient they’re on. The car will only stall if the wrong gear is selected or the car is stopped completely.

In the theory test you are expected to drive on the left edge of the lane around a right hand bend and over to the right of the lane on a left hand bend to improve visibility around the bend. This is not what is said on the audio in this video.

Not necessarily your IAM type of driving where you cover things like offsiding, limit points,etc. An IAM inclined learner could gain value from this with IAM theory but it's not really geared for them... For example, lane positioning while taking a corner isn't considered here - that affects balance.

+Totoro Zhen It is generally a bad idea to coast in neutral, as the driver has more control over the car’s speed when in a gear.
