Driving Test Fail - So Many People Make These Simple Mistakes

In this video I am going to show you how important it is to obey stop signs and I'll also show you how you can judge other cars that are on the main road. Some drivers break the rules by not stopping fully at a stop sign and this could be a serious mark on your test, so I'm going to clearly explain the stop bump and how you can use this to make sure you stop fully. I'll also be talking about emerging from a minor road to a major road and I'll demonstrate how you can judge whether it is safe or not to pull out.

Hey Dane! Could you make a video on observations for reverse around the corner, or do you already have one up?

[@navidkhattak]

Hiii Dane I have been doing my ADI Course and I'm in stage 3... I have been watching your videos regularly to get some more experience which are very helpful for me... Thanks for your time and informative videos... I would like to buy your book which you use in these videos.. Could you please send me that ISBN number and the author Name so that I can buy or order online.. Thanks again

Glad to be able to point you in the right direction and good luck with your training. Just Google driver education supplies Dublin and you'll find it. It's a mag board.

[@NotTooGoodAtReading94]

Hi Dane, I've a question. I got two Grade 2s on my last test for speeding. Apparently the limit was 35 in a suburban area in Wilton, Cork (I was doing 40ish). But there's nothing in the Rules of the Road on it and I made sure to check for any speed limit signs, of which there were none. I failed that test and I've another coming up so I wanted to get my story straight before I went in. Could you help please? Also, love your videos, they're so informative! I've every intention of passing this time, and it'll be thanks to you no doubt! 😤

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

You might be misunderstanding the way speed works, your job is to drive in a way that is suitable for the conditions, in suburban areas that might mean driving slower if the roads are small and if there's lots of parked cars. The speed limit is not always a target.

[@sammassey9694]

I failed mine the other day, I yielded at a roundabout too many times seemly even though other cars weren't indicating so I didn't know where they were going. I think it was a little bit unfair as I was being cautious

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

You need to be practical and confident, over caution is not going to be a good idea.

[@kurnganrio]

Dane, I have a question, is it OK to let the car roll in certain situations when you're driving? For example, if I'm driving around a corner.

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

What do you mean roll? What would you be doing with the clutch?

[@VangibathBadnekai]

Hi Dane, I am a little confused when approaching a speed bump, should clutch and brakes be used together, or just brakes?

[@liammchugh9439]

I am also not 100% here either. I use the brake but it depends on your speed when approaching the ramp

[@shaunaisaJellyBean]

Just brakes, otherwise your coasting which is dangerous and you have no control of the car and are free wheeling. You won’t need your foot on the clutch if you are in the right gear for the speed you are doing.

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

Brake to slow down that's all, if you're changing down gears before the ramp you need to come off the clutch in order to avoid coasting and to engage your gear properly.

[@Judith7313]

Hi Dane, would you know where the RSA road signs can be downloaded? Thanks for all your videos. Would you mind also explaining what coupling/decoupling means? I wasn't marked in this area but curious as to what it is. Thanks a mill

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

You can download the rules of the road book at www.rotr.ie and go from there. Coupling and decoupling is to do with the car and trailers and connecting to the car.

[@Judith7313]

@@DaneTygheletsdrive Thank you very much Dane.

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

[@Michael-gi5th]

That's what I don't understand, I got done for progress turning left and right for this exact situation, speed limit on the road was 50kph in one of them so they were more car lengths away but still not far enough for me to go

It's all about making the judgement call

[@abrv31]

@@seanmcg7 Just make sure to continuously observe the road and all mirrors constantly. Make sure you're comfortable with the roads in Tallaght so you aren't hesitant when turning. Make sure to watch Dane's videos as thats what helped me the most, goodluck!

[@ryremusic]

That last roundabout example. If both cars were on flat ground, would you say it would also be safe to go or would that be yield distance?

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

Possibly but it depends on what speed we are both travelling, there's a lot of different scenarios.

[@TheSkyfall]

Thank you! Last time I sat with an instructor was about 2 years ago because of COVID stuff. Today I had my tests and passed first try. 90% of revision that I've done was with your videos and I only bought and started to drive the car just a little over 2 weeks. However I did pass the test with a total of 8 grades 2. However most of these where due to me being nervous.

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

Congratulations on your successful achievement 🎉

[@damienfenton3880]

A vast majority of drivers don't stop at stop signs if the new road is clear. I don't think I've ever been a passenger in a car where the new road is clear and the driver fully stopped. A very common break of the rules

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

True, doesn't make it right though.

[@neilmurphy845]

What do I do about the hill start because in my car it's automatic I don't think there's any way to turn it off so if I did my test on a hill could I fail over that.

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

Unlikely if it's not your fault. Don't worry about it

[@sonicabaptist]

Hi Dane, I had a question regarding the hand breaks at stop signs, hill starts and anytime I need to use it when it's more than 5 seconds. I have an automatic car with a foot break (no hand break) at the extreme left after the acceleration and break pedals, it also has a 'Park' button (P symbol) which acts as a break. Can I use the 'Park' button instead of the foot break? what would you recommend?

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

I'd recommend that you use the park button, I assume that is the handbrake but I'm not sure if you realise this.. The P is for Parking brake which is another word for handbrake.

Have you seen the pass rates for 2022, the likes of killester went down from 68% to 46%. Big massive drop and we sure know it’s not because of road conditions. Rsa makes it up as they go along , it’s obvious those testers were told to mark harder. Now there is a 7/8 month back log those pass rates can only go down.

Killester had a 68% pass rate? 🤔
