Country Road Driving Lesson in Great Britain - Rural Roads

[@ConquerDriving]

Correction: In April 2015, new national speed limits came into force for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) over 7.5 tonnes on single carriageway and dual carriageway roads in England and Wales. The new limits are: 50 mph (up from 40 mph) on single carriageway roads. 60 mph (up from 50 mph) on dual carriageway roads. The speed limits did not increase in Scotland and are still 40mph and 50mph respectively.

[@ArnoldsKtm]

The range of these tutorials is crazy. Thanks.

You're welcome ☺

[@ilarioleyssens6973]

Even here in Belgium your videos are super helpful, I don't think I would have ever learned how to drive properly without your videos! Thanks!

[@ConquerDriving]

Happy to hear that!

[@ashleybishton742]

I normally drive between 5 and 10 mph within the speed limit. Depends on the situation. Currently learning. On my 10th lesson now and today's the second time I've been on the main road. Still lots more to learn. Instructor has helped me take it at my own speed.

[@legatodi3000]

It’s so right about “examinators disparity on speed on country roads”. On Borehamwood exam I was doin 30-35 on a quite bendy and hilly road and examinator decided it’s a major with a such low speed 😞

[@ukdronejourneys]

I am a professional driver of 32 years and started after decades of saying it taking my advanced driving test i watched this video before going out as i don't use country roads but a City of London driver and urban roads, this helped me on my course and got very good comments at the end of my drive. you will always be learning while driving no matter how long you have been on the road.

[@paddym27]

i love how considerate you were with that lady with the pram (and her wave of thanks both times!). You're such a great teacher it is actually a bit scary

[@forceunleashed4338]

Since I am from India,most of our road are like this and their are always pedestrians on the left side and there are no footpath plus they allow 12 wheels truck to go through road during day. So, it's a nightmare to drive but I learn a lot from you sir.

[@ConquerDriving]

Thank you, that does sound a challenge.

[@davidnickels7536]

Hi Conquer , Dave a driving instructor here , love your lessons they are really good , Would just say one thing though if you sound your horn before you go round a bend on a rural road you may spook a horse, you even said yourself to stay quiet when going past a horse , if you sound your horn before a bend you may find a spooked horse when you get there

[@ConquerDriving]

That's true. I generally don't sound the horn myself unless it really is a slow dangerous blind bend.

[@charlesholland-keen2222]

Thanks for that rural roads video and I'm sure it would have clarified what speeds are appropriate to the road and the road conditions. Do you ever use the term 'limit point of vision' relating to bend severity ? It can be helpful in assessing the distance needed stop safely on your own side of the road. e.g. Keeping to the left for right hand bends and towards the right for left hand bends.

[@ConquerDriving]

I've never used that term but I believe it is what I do.

Please could you do a video about city driving and meeting situations please!

[@ConquerDriving]

I may do that. I do have a video for dealing with parked cars. Worth a check.

[@veggiesaurus5834]

The camera angles and view of the pedals is so helpful, thank you. Am I correct that most cars you wouldn't be able to go as low as 30mph in 6th gear? My instructor would have advised me to go into 3rd gear by that speed.

[@ConquerDriving]

I wouldn't say most but there are certainly a lot of cars that would be shaking in 6th gear at 30mph.

[@sifutg]

Do the examiners use tablets instead of paper in the UK? this way the examiner can show exactly how fast you were traveling(built in gps) on the road, the learner has a harder time contesting results however.

[@ConquerDriving]

The examiners are starting to use tablet computers but not for speed.

[@samahkhader4453]

thank you

[@ConquerDriving]

You're welcome

[@SkidCudi]

In Milton Keynes they have street lamps however the speed limit is 60

[@ConquerDriving]

You would have signs if the speed limit is 60 with street lamps. The street lamp rule is for when you don't have signs.

[@Jamesdanielfitness]

Thought I come up with a few more suggestions about videos, what about night driving?? Driving in fog??

Thank you, I rarely get fog and it's hard to film at night but I may try and do something.

[@legendgod]

I found the road with speed limit around 40-50mph is more difficult to manage than motorway (70mph). Because you need to keep speed up & down & stop very regularly. I am driving an auto car and it takes several seconds to slow down from 50 to stop. Do you have any tips or video talk about it?

[@ConquerDriving]

It sounds like you may need to focus further up the road so you notice when you need to slow down earlier. These two videos may help: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hnrcXpuJpN6fgM0 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mV7bgGejdt5lidk

Hi very good driving love every min of it careful but sadly people are not careful on roads , thats why i get so many panic attacks its because of driving or being a passenger with people who drive too fast, rural areas are ok for people if they like it i perfect to be in a city where I can walk 🚶‍♂️ and go on a bike any advice on driving panic attacks i don't feel in control when i behind the wheel, i get people tailgating aswell i do be doing the speed limits coming into towns and cars still over take

[@ConquerDriving]

There will always be someone who is faster than you. I think you need to accept that whatever you do you will be subjected to a certain amount of abuse when you drive, try to let it be water of a ducks back and concentrate on your own enjoyment. Never drive faster than you're comfortable with, whatever anyone says.

It's not really very different, just less refined in my experience. You will need to use your wing mirrors more and understand that things look further away in wing mirrors than they actually are.

[@TaxingIsThieving]

2:29 My driving instructor keeps telling me to slow down 😂

[@garabedderderian6680]

Hey I got one question: If you know you have to stop on a traffic light for example whats the righter thing to do clutch neutral gear then brake and stop or clutch brake stop and then when u stop neutral? Does it matter?

[@MichaelFlatman]

leave in gear, brake until the engine drops to around 1200rpm, put the clutch in and then brake smoothly the last bit, and ease off the brake at about 1mph so it's smooth. If you are going to be sat there a while, handbrake up, neutral and then clutch up.. but this is not necessary, only if your left leg aches :P You shouldn't be moving in neutral, that's bad coasting.

[@ConquerDriving]

Exactly. Thanks for the help Michael, I'm getting a lot of comments these days. I holpe you're still enjoying your licence.

[@EstherOlagboye]

Amazing video. Ive just started driving on country roads with my instructor and I’m finding it difficult tbh. My biggest problem is I keep driving too close to the hedge on the left 😅

[@ConquerDriving]

So many new drivers do that, try to let your instructor guide you, you will feel like you will hit the oncoming cars but they are further away than they seem. Let your instructor show you where to position the car, maybe even guide the wheel for a bit and your brain will start to adapt it's judgement.

[@mohammadaliofficial4745]

[@johnhall4917]

Which petrol engine do you have in that Seat? I notice it allows you to change up as early as 1900rpm-2000rpm and still picks up very well in the next gear. Plenty of torque. I noticed you managed to accelerate from 30mph to 60mph in 6th 😮 Not many cars could pull that off.

[@ConquerDriving]

1.4 TSI 140 It's a very flexible engine, great road engine and easy for beginners. I can change up as early as 1,500rpm no problem.
