I recently passed my driving test, and a huge tip I got from my friend really helped me. It's not about whether you can drive 'good' it's about whether you can drive safely. drive instructors pass you based on the idea that you won't be a danger on the road and keep the traffic in a good flow. you don't have to be able to drive like someone who does it for 10+ years, just give the impression you know what you're doing/ are supposed to be doing, and keep looking in your mirrors, I cannot stress enough always look in your mirrors with everything that you're doing.

[@eliminate100.]

Wait but my driver instructor says to not look in the mirrors? To look around the sides and to turn my head back??

[@otanuki4288]

[@PBMS123]

@@eliminate100. You should be checking your mirrors as you drive along just normally so you know the cars around you. And when you manoeuvre you use mirrors and a head check. A head check won't show you whats 2 car lengths behind you. It should be for instance, for changing lanes - Decide you want to change lanes → check mirrors for cars, and if it's possible → indicator on → head check before manoeuvring → change lanes → indicator off Simplified as: Mirror, Indicate, head check, change lanes.

My instructor said to me "you don't need to have a perfect drive, you just need to show the examiner you are in control of the car at all times" simple advice that you all probably say but just saying that made me feel a whole lot more comfortable about the test. I passed fist time with 4 minors.

[@greego5952]

Tip from me to passing your driving test: Don't stress about it. You don't drive as well when you are under stress, so don't stress that you may fail. Accept that it may happen, but fixate on success, not failure. Don't try to feel overly confident as you may think that will help you pass. It can also make you miss a few things here and there. Simply, what I did was just simple. I set my mind to "I can pass because I know I am a good driver and I will just drive like how I always do."

[@HAF12367]

Yes good tips I was very nervous when I was taking my driving test last week however my examiner was really nice because she asked how I was and what I’m doing and my future goals. Basically, she just made me feel comfortable by getting to know me more and I actually ended up passing.

[@vivi-ws9yl]

For my first test, I was super confident I'm gonna make it. Made a big mistake and failed... On my second attempt I wasn't as confident anymore, but I definitely had hope. My examiner was in a super bad mood, forced me to break the law, so I got confused and didn't see that the lights were turning red, so my instructor had to hit the breaks. On my third one, I was super confident, that I was gonna fail. I was in a horrible mood and it got even worse when I saw who my examiner was. I think you can guess who it was. This time, he was in a better mood and I finally fucking passed. Also side note: I live in Germany, so the tests are 45 mins long and I had to drive through the Berlin city on my 2nd attempt, so it was really difficult.

[@spopple88]

It's not hard to drive to be fair, pretty simple skill most people can so. And what's with most learners still using the handbrake for every stop. I was never taught this by my instructor but I guess other instructors tell their students to use it for everything. Only time I use handbrake is parking as I love on a hill or if there a genuinely steep incline with traffic lights on, it's a parking brake really and shouldn't be used in flat traffic. And reference points for parking.....so fucking dumb, it's like learning the correct answer for a test, pointless. Learn how to park without having reference points because ultimately when your in the real world you don't have the time to fuck around with reference points.

That's a really good point. I was going for my Cat C license back in August 2021 and I was brushing up on a few videos about it on youtube and one of the key parts of information I took away from it was, so long as you're not going somewhere you shouldn't be (weight limit, height/width limit or the wrong way down a one-way street) so long as you do it safely, they won't even mark it down, usually. Just acknowledge the mistake, move safely into the new road and then deal with it be it turning around safely at the next roundabout or just redirecting back to the point you made the mistake.

There was one examiner locally who was notorious for failing everyone. He failed my mum and a couple of my friends. My sister passed first time, even though she knows she should have failed. She had the Head Examiner riding with her in the back seat when she took her test. She made a couple of big mistakes. At the end of it he goes "what are we going to do about you?" Then he said to the examiner doing the test "go on, you can pass her.,"

5:10 Now I don’t know the traffic laws in the US or UK, but in my country, you’re ABSOLUTELY not allowed to stand and block the road while waiting to get into a gas station. If it’s so full that you can’t drive in enough so that you’re not blocking the road, you’ll just have to keep driving, and then turn around and come back, or wait somewhere that’s not blocking other drivers. Because this is making unnecessary traffic jams, and definitely illegal in my country. If this happened here, the police would come and have them remove their vehicle, and if they refused, they’d arrest them and get either someone in their family or a tow truck to remove the vehicle.

Sir! you didn't signal backing up" and I was confused because I didn't know you had to signal backing out if you are going straight. You'd usually only signal if you are backing up and turning right or left respectively. I then asked my friends about it and even my parents and they were all confused because they had no clue where I'd even signal to. I also looked it up on google and found many websites saying if you are backing up straight you don't signal.

[@damionlee7658]

Quick discussion about handbrake usage. At around 5:45 Santino is waiting for a safe gap near the petrol station. He applied the handbrake with the button depressed. Then when he released it, you'll hear a "Clunk" as he pushed the button without lifting the lever. So many driving instructors out there not teaching people to use their handbrake properly, or actively teaching them incorrect usage (which seems to be the case here), and it causes undue wear and dangerous parking situations. So firstly, when applying the handbrake, do not push the button in. The handbrake is a ratchet system. By pushing the button when applying the handbrake, you are preventing the ratchet from doing is job. The whole point of the ratchet is that it allows for easier application of the handbrake (you require less energy, because you are not having to prevent the handbrake from being pulled by the cable inside), and it ensures the handbrake locks into position correctly. Anybody who tells you that this causes extra wear and tear either doesn't know how a ratchet works, or is a driving instructor that would rather teach you an incorrect method than listen to the clicking of the handbrake through the day. It does not wear out the handbrake. What does wear it out, causes broken teeth on the ratchet mechanism, (and is the actual cause of worn handbrakes that people blame on not pushing the button when applying), is pushing the button to release the handbrake without lifting the handbrake slightly first. When releasing the handbrake correctly, that button requires next to no pressure to push in. If you hear a clunk when pushing the button, it is because that button has forced the lever up enough to disengage the ratchet. In doing so it has put a massive amount of pressure on the tooth of the ratchet mechanism. Lift the handbrake lever a little, and that button will be really easy to push; it will release the handbrake without the clunk.

[@mint_au]

yeah ive never gotten why the drivers always [ull the button in it requires more energy and all of them it goes down abit after theyve let the button go but as they drive more and use the handbrake more times theyll figure it out

Must admit on the one way road at 9:40 I too would have stayed left at the top, to turn right - simple reason being it leaves me more space and an escape route for a driver who has not seen (or just does not care about) the no entry markings, so who then cuts the corner into my lane. If I am on the right, I have nowhere to go. Left gives a better view and more options.

[@conwaygray8211]

I passed about 2 weeks ago and only got 1 minor I think these videos are really helpful and beneficial for others.

[@ShredBundy420]

The right turn at 9:46 what is the reasoning for having to be on the right handside of the road there? Being left it opens up the view quicker of seeing round the corner? As far as I can see there is no split lane. One for left and one for right.

[@davidjones332]

That first serious error was possibly due in part to the pelican crossing just before the give-way marking. In similar situations I often see drivers go through the green lights without realising that it doesn't give them a clear run across the junction. I guess it's a subconcious reaction: seeing a green light so close to a junction you don't register the "give way".

I passed my car driving test in 1990, but watching these videos is good as it helps refresh on bad habits. I passed my full motorcycle test in 89 too and you have extra things to consider when riding. I am more aware and focused on a bike than in a car because you almost go into autopilot in a car as it's so easy and you are in a comfortable environment. Every long term car driver should watch videos like these to refresh their basic understanding of the rules. It was relatively easy to pass your test when I did mine compared to how it is now. I am glad it's harder now as the roads are even more dangerous.

[@BruceDanton-xw6eg]

Indeed so too.

[@deriderex]

Driving instructors don't get enough credit for the job they do. My instructor made my driving lesson sessions and subsequent tests alot easier by simply understanding what kind of person I am. He noticed quickly in my first session I was a nervous guy and created a calm, reassuring environment for me to work in. I believe this alone got me through some difficult times during it all. My final test was to be done by the strictest examiner in the city, so I was already nervous at that thought. More so, it was the hottest day of July. I felt the odds stacked against me, as I was driving down a road the sweat started pouring off my forehead and started building up in my eyes. Driving now with one eye closed and the other open, both feeling like someones just put vinegar in my eyes for a laugh. On the way back to the driving test center I remembered my instructor say " if you don't do a manoeuvre before you head back to the centre, prepare yourself for a reverse park". I did just that, and I passed first time. It felt anti climactic at first due to the manor which I received my certification when we parked up but after I met up with my instructor again it felt good. Practice and a good instructor goes along way, stay safe.

[@gamewithgreg]

13:10 the comment is a little confusing when you told him he was in the left lane on the one way street, but should've been in the right lane. On revisiting that part of his journey on the video, the road wasn't divided into lanes, so he couldn't have been in the "right lane". I suspect you meant to tell him to position himself more to the right, but that's not what came out.

[@chrisbauer1925]

6:57. This one confuses me a bit as an American. Here, if the light was green for the learner, than any traffic from the right in that type of intersection would have a red light, making it safe to proceed without checking/yielding. Can green lights in the UK signify that you still need to yield to other traffic? In the USA, green lights mean that you have right of way and are safe to go, assuming that nobody else runs a red light (perhaps this contingency of other people running a red is being considered? Seems a bit crazy to be a major fault though in that case). Edit: I just noticed the give way sign, but still, that sign is in a pretty bad location and is hard to see.

[@zakzanotti5868]

I’m shocked at how long in took at that scenario with the minibus blocking the road. I’m surprised nobody let him go as he’s a learner. I try my best to let learners go as not to fluster them.

[@Jillaroo79]

His first serious fault at 6:52, that road design is so misleading. You have green light, straight road, right after green light a yield (give way) sign. There is nothing like this in continental Europe. In continental EU and the USA if you have a green light it always means you have the right of way if you are going straight. I would have passed clean right thru that intersection on the green without looking or stopping as well. It's just confusing how despite the going straight and green light you have to give way to vehicles coming from the right. Never seen this before.

@@mendesarmy1235 Sure just found it interesting that what is normal in one country can be so misleading to people from other countries.. Makes me wonder how safe it is for tourists to drive in different countries. I found that green light but yield misleading so that is all. :) Have a nice day.

[@vikkran401]

I know several places where I'm from where drivers have to yield, right after passing a green light. Normally on most traffic lights there are yield signs directly under it, in case the traffic lights don't work, so traffic lights have priority but in that clip the Yield sign and line was after the stop line which means that he should have checked and if a driver were coming from right, slow down and let them pass. It's not that confusing at all but still I wouldn't consider it a ''serious driving misstake'' a misstake sure but it wasn't that serious tbh.

[@cheeseburgerbeefcake]

This video is a fantastic resource for learning, I wish I could have rewatched my driving lessons 20yrs ago! The serious fault when emerging from the one way road on the wrong side could be argued that his position enabled for a better view of the traffic from the right; however I've not experienced that junction so it may not hold up.

[@travelmuse1994]

This was great to watch! I feel for Santino on that one way street, as the exact same thing happened to me on a driving test (where I failed due to incorrect positioning on a one-way street).

Everyone will recommend the instructor they used once they passed but they have to match you and also your learning style). Blessing to you Pin because these videos definitely added more foundation and knowledge to my learning. You really can learn from other people mistakes. For those that have tests coming up. Good luck!!! 1. Watch as many of these videos as possible (including "show me tell me qusetions" 2. Get a good night's sleep (the night before) 3. Have a good breakfast 4.

[@mendohighlights]

its crazy, i learned driving in germany just a few months ago and im so confused about alle the usage of the handbrake. In Germany, we only use it for parking or reeeeeeealy long wisting times at a train passage or something similar. But to hand brake at every stop like in GB seems so weird 😅

[@Coxy-b34]

You're taught to do that by instructors but once you pass your test you forget about it.

[@charliefreck]

You don't need to use the handbrake in a test. You have to show you can control the car. But the handbrake on a hill is a big benefit.

[@vikkran401]

Is it a requirement in the UK to use hand break even at normal traffic stops during the driving test? That's really strange and also adds more seconds before you can accelerate when the light turns green. In Sweden we only use it when parking. At traffic stop we just keep the brake down and if it's a long wait like when a train is passing by it's recommended (and required on drivers test) that you shut off the car to save energy and not let it run while standing still

[@charliefreck]

@@vikkran401 no. You just have to be safe and be in control of the car at all times.

Question. Obviously the rules and laws in each country differ, but I was surprised at one specific point: 6:55 I would also just drive straight ahead. I had a green light. Where I live lights override vertical and horizontal road signs that apply to giving way or stopping. Only if the lights were not working (i.e. at night), I'd look for the signs next. So this does differ in the UK? Never drove much there (1 week), so didn't have the chance to know all the differences. Is it because of the crossing? I've never seen traffic lights that would include a crossing but NOT the intersection right next to them.

[@BPslyful]

You're kind of right. Those lights are just for the crossing not for the junction just beyond it. A clue is that there are two rows of traffic lights lights at the crossing (at the front and back of the crossing) and no more traffic lights at the junction.

[@loomko]

ya i dont see the problem there either the light was green and he stayed to the left if someone was coming from the right they would stay in the right lane i can understand wanting to know if someone was there but it doesnt seem like a major infraction to me but i live in the us

[@mahfuj_sheikh]

@@loomko the triangle sign on the road means it’s a giveaway which means drivers on the right have a priority, this means the driver on the left lane has to look at the right when approaching this sign to prepare to stop for the cars on the right merging, the learner here didn’t stop or even look to his right to see if there were any drivers on the priority lane

A good tip I can give is: if there’s a stop, STOP the car. Don’t just go very slow, even if there is literally no one else in the road. Come to a full stop. This can sometimes single handedly make you pass the exam. I’ve seen so many people fail the exam because “you didn’t stop at the stop”. “But there wasn’t anyone there!” It doesn’t matter.

The first one way street where he was over to the left to turn right but no lane markings seemed a bit harsh giving a serious for that. Is that how the examiner would mark it? I’d have said a minor is a bit more fair for that. Yes if there is 2 lanes clearly marked and driver goes in left lane to turn right I can see that but here where there were no markings. If that’s how the examiner would make it fair enough.

[@ryans413]

It serious cause a car in the right lane could be turning right and then you turn right from the middle lane you could crash into that car why it’s serious when making a right even on a one way you stay to the far right lane same thing with turning left.
