Driving in the UK

In this video I describe what it is like to drive in the UK.
The UK has 35 Million vehicles which is approximately 1 vehicle to every 2 people.
The UK adopts the Right Hand Drive Configuration, The controls are moved over to the right hand seat.
Although we are not the only country to use the Right Hand Drive, we slightly unique. we still have our indicator stalk on the left, which is the same as the rest of europe. this is different to other RHD countries which have their Indicator stalk on the right.
We allow Left Hand Drive (LHD) cars from europe under the terms of the Vienna Convention on Road Traffic (UNECE)
We are the only country in the world with both mph (miles per hour) and Km/h (Kilometres per hour) on our speedometers.
the roads in the UK come in multiple varieties
-Minor Roads (B, C, D, & Unclassified) make up 87% of roads
-Major Roads (A) make up 12% of roads
-Motorways (M) make up 1% of roads
Together Motorways and A roads account for 65% of all road traffic
the UK has over 7500 miles of Trunk Road which is managed by the individual constituent countries
-The Highways Agency (England)
-Transport Scotland (Scotland)
-SWTRA & NMWTRA (Wales)
-Road Service (Northern Ireland)
The Speed limits vary based on the road type and the type of vehicle being driven.

I used to drive in Canada and nothing for many miles just the odd Convoy - I have driven here yet would never relish it again. Far too many road-blocks; overtakers and terribly expensive road taxes - you need to be mad to own a car here (unless necessity calls for it). F1 roads everywhere so best off walking if you can do it.

I sat in the passenger seat (which is on the right) in my car and practiced shifting gear, using indicators etc. with my left hand. It was easy tbh but turning the wheel with right hand is a bit difficult. I guess I'll drive like a granny in UK.

[@brucedanton3669]

Thank you for all of this of course-most informative it is too as well. Aside from what you have rightly said, another thing we here in Britain/the UK do not have is those diamond priority signs that I think all the other countries in continental Europe have, and perhaps elsewhere too. I know if you go to France or further afield they do there then so too. However, most of our other road signs are much the same as in Europe as far as I know then too. Except that is for the Republic of Ireland, our neighbour, who as far as I know also have diamond signs rather than the usual ones elsewhere; although they are not the same as those ones in the rest of Europe as I say, if you see what I mean too. Well done of course!

Thanks for the video!!! Great job!

[@Maniac3020]

In Canada, most vehicles have both MPH and Km/h on the dashboard. Probably due to the U.S. being nearby, and citizens from the 2 nations regularly crossing borders. It's really useful, because we have a van that has MPH as the primary measurement on the speedometer, but there's still KPH to look at. I have been looking at these combined dashboards for so long that I have memorized the common speed increments for cars in both Km/h and MPH, so I can compare them in my head. Funnily enough, I've also learned both Celsius and Fahrenheit, as Celsius is the primary unit of temperature measurement, but our house has old, Fahrenheit thermostats, so I've been comparing the 2 my whole life. I can't compare them exactly, but I do know roughly where they meet.

I come from the continent, and decided to rent an (automatic) car in the UK. Automatic because I wanted to make my life easier and not shift with my wrong hand. I think that would have been the end of the gearbox/engine.. It all went well for 2 hours, after which my concentration on driving on the "wrong" side of the road slipped. Fortunately I had a co-driver shouting if I did it wrong. But after that experience, I decided never to drive in the UK/Ireland again. It is a shame, because I really liked the country. But no, not for me. I am too dangerous on UK roads. Ah well, at least I tried....

[@ryanlast5799]

Ronald de Rooij Haha. You should try taking your own car with you. I'm English and took my car to france and belgium - surprisingly wasn't that difficult just very strange. Plus you have the benefit of other drivers noticing your foreign number plate and hopefully understanding why you are a little slow or unsure where to go. :)

Correction: Auto gearboxes are P(Park); R(Reverse); N(Neutral); D(Drive) with a 1, 2 or 3 after the drive in some car makes and models, or, as in my 2003 Ford Futura BA-model station wagon, at D, slide the lever left and have a quasi-manual-like transmission(which I never use). Also, do not pander to the Americans, the pedal is called Accelerator, that's it!

[@Soruk42]

The National Speed Limit sign is NEVER used to indicate 30mph in built-up areas, these are always signed with an actual speed limit sign. Indeed, an example is the Basingstoke ring road, it is signed with the National Speed Limit sign - which is intended to mean (for cars) 60mph on the single carriageway section, and 70mph in the dual carriageway sections.

[@britbazza2529]

@@r.h.8754 Anywhere that streetlamps are is a 30mph unless indicated otherwise by a higher speed limit on a round sign with a red ring round it and the speed clearly marked In black figures.

That was very usefull thank you

[@huttarl]

Thanks for this video. It's been much more informative than some others, which mostly say "It feels weird!" A couple of details you might want to explain: 1. Define "single carriageway" and "dual carriageway". We don't use these terms in the US. 2. Warn people that there are no yellow stripes. We US drivers are used to yellow stripes to remind us which lanes contain traffic going the opposite direction. When you're already confused by the left/right reversal, it's important not to assume that white stripes mean "traffic going the same direction, come on over!" 3. Define "undertaking". From context, it seems to mean "passing on the left." In the US it can have meanings like "attempting" or "preparing for a funeral." :-) Thanks again for a helpful and detailed explanation of driving in the UK!

[@christiandeleo7737]

Very helpful thank you...

[@Otacatapetl]

Something you should've pointed out for visitors is that the A/B/C designation is for how important a route it is, not how well-engineered it is. One doesn't follow from the other; you can have a B road which is better quality than an A road.

[@15october91]

It's a shame you never posted a video again I was looking forward to watching more of your videos.

[@Jefff72]

I’m American and was stationed there 3 yrs back in the 90s. Good times! Now I’m (civilian) living in Germany. I find bigger difference in things like road signs between Germany & France than Germany & UK. Road signs in UK look nearly identical to those in Germany except on the left. You use I, II & iii on the Motorway like on the Autobahn. Except yours are yards instead of meters. Motorway is the literal translation of the German word Autobahn.

The Speed Limit In The UK Is 70 MPH (110 km/h) But They Will Raise It To 80 MPH (130 km/h)

[@zacharymazzuca1150]

i think the turn signals would be annoying if they were operated with the same hand as the shift lever. Like if youre slowing to a stop and turning left (right actually i suppose) thatd be obnoxious

[@sdtfoxon]

Zachary Mazzuca always been taught to 'mirrors, signal, manoeuvre' so the indicators are operated before operating the brake, and thus too changing down gears.

[@Jefff72]

That part about learning to drive an automatic limits you to driving an automatic is the same for Germany.

[@jur4x]

Actually, pretty much in all countries that signed Geneva agreement. And I believe that all the countries in the EU and EEA use the same code on the license to specify the restriction. Also, rental agencies request additional documents from American and Canadian tourists to prove they are qualified to drive manual.

[@Jefff72]

jur4x I have rented cars in Germany, the UK & Ireland with a US license (Minnesota) and they have never asked for additional documents. Last time in Ireland, I didn't have enough left on my credit card for them to hold hold €2000, I had to take the insurance.

[@Alan-xy2vb]

At one time a lot of us in Australia learnt in manual cars like the old 3 on the column Fords and Holdens with no syncho between 1st and 2nd and there was no restriction from driving a manual if you learnt in an auto. I don't know when the change happened but now you have an A added to the license if you learnt in an auto which most cars seem to be over here now.

[@Jefff72]

What I was referring in my original comment is when you get trained and tested in Germany, not when you rent a car as a tourist. The Americans here with US Forces don't have to get a German license. They go through a class and take a written test and get a USAREUR (US Army in Europe) which goes along with their stateside license. Their cars are registered separately from Germans.

[@e-curb]

@@jur4x There's no such thing as being qualified to drive a manual in Canada. There's only one type of licence and anyone can drive any gearbox. The exception is that some people who are disabled are restricted to automatic only when their disability affects their ability to drive a stick.

[@srabukawaqa9060]

I'm from Fiji and we drive on the left like the British, Aussies and Kiwis, however, i'm surprised that British wipers and turn signals still remain the same like American vehicles. We have the turn signal lever on the right and the wipers on the left. For the speedometer, we both have kmph and mph, however the LAW enforces that we work only on kmph so we just ignore the latter (mph).Likewise we have 1% of left-hand drive vehicles on our roads and you never see them speeding, overtaking or pulling stunts coz they're diffrent and are often vulnerable to accidents "IF" driven by wrong hands. These left-hand drive vehicles are mostly BMW's, Audi's,Range Rover's, Volkswagen's,Mercedes, but NEVER Toyota(kudos).Anyways i like your video. PEACE from Fiji.

Also see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kilometres_per_hour for the correct usage of km/h The metric SI unit symbol for kilometre is "km" and it is case sensitive. "k" stands for kilo meaning "a thousand of" and is always lower case. "m" is for "metre" and is also always lower case. Failure to to use the correct case for metric SI unit symbols causes trouble when you consider "Mm" and "mm" which are "a Megametre" (million metres) and "a millimetre" (a millionth of a metre) respectively. Please use the correct case for km, thanks.

driving on the left has nothing to do with over taking. it goes back to medieval times, where if u was a knight being able to hold the sword with the right and the reins with the left was easier. you always had the chance to ride away. so nothing to do with over taking.

I used to drive in Canada and nothing for many miles just the odd Convoy - I have driven here yet would never relish it again. Far too many road-blocks; overtakers and terribly expensive road taxes - you need to be mad to own a car here (unless necessity calls for it). F1 roads everywhere so best off walking if you can do it.

You are wrong, in Australia the indicator stalk is on the right and wiper is on the left.

What does the zig zags on the road in London City mean?

[@boobyhill6921]

They're backward fucks.

[@britbazza2529]

Do not park or overtake on zig zags as it is usually for a crossing for pedestrians and a clear line of sight is required by all road users in those zones

I really think the U.S. should adopt the metric system since most of the world uses metrics, and I think the rest of the world should stick to left hand driving and driving on the right side of the road. It's the exact same as right hand driving, it'd just most of the world drive on the right side of thr road.
