Speed - How to Control Your Speed

[@hilolayusupova6786]

I got my license 2 years ago with the help of this person, and I still watch every video he posts because they are very helpful. No one gonna teach you what he teaches us. Thank you! I would like a Q&A video about yourself. You make great videos in 3 languages👏 and always support new drivers. Would like to know where you are from, how you learned languages, how did you start posting videos on KZbin.

[@ConduiteFacile]

I could do that. I could ask for some questions people would be interested in and do a video with the answers. I've noted your 3 questions. Anything else you'd like to know?

[@hilolayusupova6786]

@@ConduiteFacile 1)Anything about yourself that you can share. 2)what gives you motivation to make these lessons. 3) about your first time driving 4) how did you learn foreign languages and tips for those who are learning a new language. 5) Your thoughts before posting your first KZbin video. 6) How long it takes to make one lesson from 0 until it's ready to be posted. 7) You are an amazing educator, what makes you/made you to be who you are now. 8) What do you like most about being an educator? 9) I like your motivational video that you made with your psychologist sister, it wasn't just for drivers, it was a life lesson.

27 yo here learning to drive for the first time alone. Can't overstate how much this channel has built my confidence and encouraged me to get back out and keep practicing despite being anxious and even discouraged at times by making mistakes. Most people in the states learn how to drive at/around 16, but that's certainly not the case for everyone, particularly those growing up in low-income households. I'm sure I'm not the only one here who has taken comfort in "knowledge is power", especially when learning something unfamiliar, and that keeps me coming back to these videos to learn something new. The points where you mention common beginner mistakes and their remedies are particularly comforting. They remind me that I'm not the only one who struggles with these particular things, and we're all learning together. Thank you so much for sharing these videos and for your patient instruction.

God bless you and Conduite Facile. i am also almost 30 and teaching myself to drive after trying and giving up many times. Your comment helps feel stronger and I know that i am not alone in this challenge that seems to be so easy for others. And these lessons are so informative and right on the dot.

[@DanielPanis]

Despite being a 16 yo, I feel the same way as you do. I definitely take to heart “knowledge is power” because I also struggle with a driving anxiety a bit and getting discouraged when I make mistakes🥲 Watching videos like these helps to ease that anxiety and help me gain a bit of confidence. I hope you’re doing well in your driving journey and I wish you best of luck🫶

I'm a licensed driver in the Philippines but I have never driven a car before. I only drove my motorcycle. I'm an immigrant here in the US for about three months now and I just got my driver permit on Monday. I have been binge watching your videos since I got my permit and I wanna thank you for making them so simple yet informative. Your instructions are easy to understand and I learned a lot! I began to practice driving two days ago and my husband was so surprised I already know how to do some things properly like turning left or right, reversing, parking (I still have to work on my parallel parking skills though), turning lanes, etc. All thanks to you, sir! I'm really eager to learn how to drive and just doing it makes me feel that I can really do it! 😄 I feel a little more confident now in driving and it has only been three days! LOL Again, I owe it to you! You are such a good driving instructor! 🙌🏼

[@johngate4715]

Oh another thing. Most examiners have a digital speedometer app on their phone. So dont think they are not going to catch you going over or under the limit, they already know lol.

[@BinaBecker]

Yes, please do one on cruise control! I haven't used it yet, so I'm curious to learn more.

[@mistadude]

It’s pretty easy all you have to do is change it to ready then you click the set button and release your foot from the gas

[@stanzinzangmo9622]

I no

[@josueramirez7247]

I think you should only use it on a highway that is flat and straight for the most part. It can be a helpful tool for cruising at a constant speed, but please be safe by not using it in bad weather (slippery road surface), when the road turns too much (or is hilly), or where there are a lot of cars or objects around you.

[@reiniertl]

I like to use mine a lot just because my foot gets very tired by trying to keep the speed constant. Particularly on long drives is very useful. It also helps save gas.. Now, what he mentioned in the video is true, you do get complacent if not very aware. What I do is to periodically check that my foot is in a position where I can brake very fast if needed. Another thing I do is to put the foot on the brake pedal anytime road conditions change. For example if I notice someone trying to overtake me or vehicles in front. If I see other vehicles in front change lanes and so on. It helps you stay aware that your foot should be ready to brake at anytime. Eventually it becomes a reflex and then it would be safe to use. As for the operation just follow the manual, but usually there is a button (usually on the left of your wheel) to arm it, then when you brake it disengages. Other buttons are used to re-engage, like up down speed or return to cruise control like in my car. Try to use it in the city when going at low speed and there is low traffic, until you get used to it without looking at the control.

[@ConduiteFacile]

Good timing. Enjoy the video, and stay tuned for more videos on speed.

[@eugenetswong]

Yes, a video on cruise control, please. I usually keep my foot on the brake. It never occurred to me that people use it to take their feet off of the pedals. Historically, it was supposed to be used for passenger comfort. It was invented by a blind man, who didn't like the unpredictable driving he experienced. Cruise control smoothed out the speed by keeping it consistent. I use it to drive as fast as possible without going over the speed limit.

[@ConduiteFacile]

"I use it to drive as fast as possible without going over the speed limit." That's one of the best uses for it in my opinion. I'll talk about that in the next video.

[@TonyKimtheamusementparkfan]

Yeah controlling your speed can be difficult at first, but overtime you get used to how you position your foot on the accelerator pedal. Plus, the feel of the pedals are important too, especially when you switch vehicles, so you can know how fast the vehicle will accelerate depending on how much you press the pedal. I had a 2017 Toyota RAV4 and now have a 2021 RAV4, and the pedals are very different, both in feel and when accelerating.

[@ConduiteFacile]

Quote: "especially when you switch vehicles" Very true. Depends a lot on the vehicle model but also the age of the vehicle. Cables get rusty and dirty.

[@eric18993]

[@christopherlopez8479]

@Conduite Facile I have a question. How do you recommend we place our feet when drivingZ should our foot be placed between the brake and accelerator? Or should we place the foot hovering above the brake. I ended up hurting my knee with my placement of the doler above the brake.

[@ConduiteFacile]

Between.

[@pinkankeffet8261]

My problem is to get the accelerator steady. For example I am havjng difficulty to keep my speed at 50km/hour, it will always keeps going to 55 and rhen i need to reduce it to 50 but then it keep going down to 45 and then i need to press it a bit to make it 50. But it is a constant correctioms for me. I still dont know how to make it steady.

[@thegripmaster666]

Cruise Control is awesome. It lets you mentally rest on long highways knowing your car is taking care of the speed. You don't need to take your foot off the accelerator while in cruise control. Just rest your feet on the accelerator as if you are driving normally. If you need to brake, it will be the usual movement on the brake pedal

[@Nelc0]

anyone know if he’s done an english video on roundabouts? it would really help

[@putrescentvermin]

A helpful personal tip of mine is, given you're on a flat road, the reason behind keeping a constant pressure on the gas is to provide enough acceleration to even out the resistive forces (friction and air resistance). On a hill, you have gravity and whatever else to account for like letting off the gas downhill or accelerating uphill. Note that speed is scalar (only has magnitude like an amount but no direction like forward/positive or backwards/negative) and velocity is a vector (basically speed but it has magnitude and direction). Acceleration is the rate of change/derivative (for all my math folks out there) of velocity and as said before, you need a right amount of acceleration, like what Conduite did when he barely moved his foot 1:21, to counteract the resistive forces that will decelerate you. This is why if you let off the gas a bit or entirely, you slow down. Conversely, if you press the gas more as Conduite did 1:37, you speed up to overcome the resistive forces more but wind resistance becomes stronger as you go faster and that means a louder engine and less fuel economy. This should help new or old drivers on good gas pedal control because I've made the mistake myself of fiddling with the throttle a lot which took focus away from the road. Letting of the gas and punching it intermittently is not the way to go for comfort and control/traction. I figure explaining the physics and math behind it would be helpful. I hope teachers and parents can teach this tidbit cause things like these can be neglected and contribute to unsafe driving. Hope this was helpful.

[@RueShir]

Got my license today after binge watching the videos on this channel! This one was the game changer and why I failed before (speed control). Thank you so much!

[@ConduiteFacile]

[@jaroslavnemec289]

Two different things: maximal allowed speed vs. maximal safe speed. 90km/h limit on a state road applies when the road is dry but also when it is icy. I prefer setting the speed based on the traffic (not being an obstacle for everyone going too slowly and not being a maniac driving dangerously) and consider the speed limits a good advice and reminder not surpass them. I think it is safer to do 5 or 10 km/h over the limit and focus fully on driving than doing 5 or 10 km/h and being distracted.

[@ConduiteFacile]

Inappropriate speed. It is something, and you can get a fine for it even if you're driving at the speed limit in some exceptional situations. It's something I'll discuss in one of the future videos.

[@jaroslavnemec289]

@@ConduiteFacile I just wanted to stress out that obeying the speed limit in any circumstances is incorrect. I typically surpass the speed limit on highways when overtaking in order not to block the passing lane. Speed limit is just an empirical value applied everywhere. When the state road is dry and wide, why wouldn't I go 100km/h? What is the right speed? Well, it depends. But it is not definitely constant.
