This is exactly the video I’ve needed. I’ve had around 15 hours of lessons with an instructor. I decided to practice in my partner’s car and got overwhelmed trying to keep up with other cars and changing gears too close to roundabouts. This practice will really help.

[@dontmindme5290]

Had my first lesson today. I didnt stall once, even got to do roundabouts, junctions and a hill start! My instructor said he was very impressed. Ive been watching these videos for a few years on and off and today i can see just how much of a help they truly are to beginners and even advanced drivers!

[@johnlamsdan]

Did you have any practice in a different car like your parent's? Or did you only learn by watching the videos?

[@dontmindme5290]

@johnlamsdan just the videos. I did try my mothers car up an industrial estate however it is 14 years old so i only went forward for like 10 seconds after stalling a bunch since her clutch and brake is awful. It was mainly a bunch of guess work from what I had seen in videos as obviously she couldn't teach me. But with my instructor then it's like it put the pieces together and allowed me to know what to do beforehand

[@teia9845]

Your advice for taking as much TIME as possible for approaching junction helped my progress of lesson significantly, especially "walking" . That's exactly how I told my guitar student to learn the part which they struggled. Your pervious video for whom has learned to drive automatic car. This lesson is even make it clear with much more applications. Thank you very much!

[@Omarock]

Excellent video, and this is not only useful for beginners. I still do this as someone who's been driving manual for 10+ years. I also often "jog" (as in engine brake to get in a safe controlled speed) when approaching traffic on the highway to match traffic speed. That gives me more time to look around and check if it's safe to make a lane change as opposed to someone who approaches at a higher speed and needs to use the brake pedal to slow down.

They're full of valuable information, but presented in a logical, calm, and relatable way that makes it much easier to understand. I also feel lucky to have been taught by my excellent driving instructors. My most favorite instructor had been a bus driver and hgv driver of many years, and he gave me so much useful insight into that perspective and the hazards they deal with. I'm still learning every drive and enjoy your videos a lot. Thanks!

@lornagunn7433 Weirdly I found it helpful to imagine that people think you will fail, which fuelled me to prove them wrong (I had a very strict examiner and my determination to prove him wrong got me a pass). This means there are no expectations of others that you won't meet. If you fail, you met the expectations. If you pass, you exceed the expectations. Hope this helps, good luck!

I would love to jog to an intersection at a faster pace. But that would require harder, later braking and a heel toe so I can release the clutch early enough before initiating the turn in. But my gas pedal is so far inset from my brake pedal! I need a spacer to elevate my gas pedal higher. I think that's what I need to level up my manual dricing...

Hi Richard, love your videos! I was wondering if you could perhaps do a video on how to deal with 2 junctions in quick succession of each other or offer any advice. For example when following a sat nav in an area you don’t know, taking the first exit at a roundabout in the left lane onto a two or more lane road, to then be told to take the next right at the lights. It’s not always safe to switch lane in time. But should the roundabout have been taken in the middle lane to be in the right lane for these lights. If that made any sense!

[@zhanna6006]

Sometimes when I'm on a driving lesson I mess up sometimes I forget to go into 1st gear, I've stalled or my positioning has been off is this all normal for a beginner I'm worried about how many lessons in should I be driving without faults like this?

[@Luca_Talis]

Hi my driving test is 13th August - tomorrow afternoon and I wanted to ask how you deal with hill junctions because they are giving me the most trouble other than random minor faults. My instructor’s car is an Audi A1 2021 model and on hills after stopping, the clutch stays at the bit point without the brake but when trying to move off I have to lower the clutch a little to disengage the clutch and need to quickly use some gas to move away otherwise there is a chance that I take too long for the car to start moving.

[@padkrapao]

Hi Richard, newer driver here. Very informative video as always! I've one question though - I have difficulties putting my older car in first gear while its moving (feels like it has to be forced in, not sure if it's healthy for the transmission). My solution so far has been to use second gear with higher revs (~2k) to get going when 'walking'. I'm wondering if there is a better workaround? Thank you!

@@ConquerDriving Thank you! It is indeed very helpful.

[@stevenpremmel4116]

Will this not wear down the clutch quicker?

[@elmatichos]

The clutch wears when it's released just enough to deliver some power, but it doesn't engage fully yet, and when you add lots of throttle at that point, it starts heating. Heat increases wear, and prolonged high temperatures are detrimental to the clutch. He has, however, never held the clutch at that spot for long enough or at high enough rotating speeds of the engine.

Hi mate. 👋 Is it ok to wait on a no stopping bus stop clearway with a wide yellow line along the kerb of the bus stop while in a stationary queue of traffic?

[@ConquerDriving]

There won't be a benefit to leaving that clear as the bus would still be behind you in the traffic.

[@WayneTulip-zm9gw]

Hi mate, I just wanted to apologise to you, you’re absolutely right. 🙃 I’ve had a look online and that’s absolutely right, with clearways basically it means no stopping unless you literally have no other choice but to stop, for example, if you’re on a motorway and it’s so congested with traffic you will have literally no other choice but to stop, also, last year I was driving home from work on a 24 hour clearway (which only permits stopping in a lay-by unless signs say otherwise) and there were roadworks and traffic lights which were on red so I literally had no other choice but to stop, with clearways I imagine that there are double red lines which means literally no stopping at all unless you’re in a stationary queue of traffic or for reasons outside of your control, I always have a look through of the Highway Code, it says this about yellow zigzag lines :- rule 238, which is a waiting and parking rule states “You MUST NOT wait or park or stop to set down and pick up passengers on school entrance markings when upright signs indicate a prohibition of stopping”, so, it’s basically saying that if yellow zigzag lines don’t have an accompanying sign then they are only advisory but you still shouldn’t park there and you still shouldn’t pick up or drop off passengers there because you should respect the reason why they’re there (to keep school children and school staff safe and to give them an unrestricted view when crossing the road), if yellow zigzag lines have an accompanying sign it means that there is a mandatory prohibition of stopping so if you stop on them to park or to pick up and set down passengers you’re breaking the law but stopping on them in a stationary queue of traffic or at a red traffic light is absolutely fine because it’s outside of your control, you could wait before the yellow zigzag lines start and then start to move when you see the traffic in front of you start to move but doing that wouldn’t make any sense because some yellow zigzag lines are quite long and you’d hold traffic up which isn’t good for traffic flow and it would annoy other drivers, especially if you’re preventing them from turning left or right, with bus stop clearways it says this about them in the Highway Code :- rule 243 of the Highway Code states :- “DO NOT stop or park near a school entrance, at or near a bus stop, except when forced to do so by stationary traffic”, rule 240 of the Highway Code states :- “you MUST NOT stop or park on a clearway”, however, if you look online at schedule 19 part 1 section 4 of the traffic signs regulations and general directions 2016 it says :- “other exceptions, nothing in paragraph 2 applies in relation to a vehicle which is prevented from proceeding by circumstances beyond the driver’s control or which has to be stopped in order to avoid injury or damage to persons or property”, so, it’s basically saying that if you’re on a clearway and you have no other choice but to stop due to reasons beyond your control or to avoid injury or damage to to people or property then that’s absolutely fine.

[@ConquerDriving]

@@WayneTulip-zm9gw no need to apologise, many people ask me if they need to leave bus stops clear when in traffic. When in traffic try not to block other traffic that could flow freely. Yellow lines, red lines, bus stops and other no waiting, no parking and no stopping areas are not relevant because you're waiting in traffic.

[@WayneTulip-zm9gw]

I totally agree with you, we need to think of best flow for everyone, not just for ourselves, you’re absolutely right, as with everything in life there is always an exception, as it says in the traffic signs regulations and general directions 2016 under clearways, you’re allowed to stop on a clearway for reasons outside of your control and to avoid injury or damage to people or to property.
