The main thing to do in that situation is to remain calm (if you can!) and not get flustered. Everyone was a learner at some stage in the past. I've been driving 40 years and I still make the occasional mistake. The worst was when I was test-driving a diesel VW Golf (Mark IV, I think) which had a weird engine that would stall very abruptly if you let the clutch up slightly too far or didn't apply quite enough power, rather than struggling and failing to get moving, which gives you enough time to dip the clutch slightly and/or apply a bit more power to rectify the problem. It seemed to be by design rather than a faulty car, because I had the same experience in another of the same type a few years later. The salesman said "Everyone does that when they first test drive this engine." I think the engine-management goes into "computer says no" mode and deliberately cuts the fuel if you are at risk of straining the engine. It was bloody dangerous. I didn't buy a Golf. I did try a later model (maybe Mark V) and that was fine - it was jsut the pre-HDI "Pumpe Duse" engine that was afflicted with this childish, petulant "I'm to going to play" engine management unit.

When I was a learner 20 years ago, most cars has a handbreak and uphill start like that would definitely with handbrake on so no rollback for whatever reason, then release the clutch and apply gas at the same time slowly. When the car has enough power going up, the handbrake is released and you continue to apply more gas and release the clutch completely.

Indeed, the idea of having gas added when you step on the gas pedal is such a cool idea - I learned the handbrake trick because my first car was manual several decades ago, but first my father made sure I could start on a hill from first, second, and third gears. It’s all about knowing your car’s clutch very, very well. Interesting to see the differences in advice between US and UK teachings, and to see modern manual techniques since we sadly have almost no manuals in the US these days.

@@fireWireX4 Sure, once I knew how to drive it was always start in first. But learning about the machine’s performance, learning to really feel the clutch and how to slowly let it out and notice when it is just about to catch without any damage to it, was the stress-test of the lesson. No smell, no sound, just gentle starting up! Never heard of a problem like spinning wheels, maybe because you have to be equally gentle on the gas. And then there was this one time my gear shift somehow … fell down through the floor board … and I had to drive home entirely in third to replace a single screw. So it did come in handy directly. 🤣 But that was really never the intention, I swear!

I don't think I was ever shown to roll away with the bite first then to accelerate. I was always shown to keep handbrake on, then reach the bite point with clutch and accelerator, then remove the handbrake and away I go. Also good that you cleared up the "gas" situation. My instructor used to say that too. When going up a hill and not going quick enough he would just keep saying "gas... gasss... gasssss" But I prefer accelerator.

I recall when I did my driving lessons, I got an exercise to park and drive away on a steep hill. I was taught to put it on hand brake, clutch in and give gas. Then slowly engage the clutch until you feel it pull, but before the point you start rolling as you don't want to kill your handbrakes obviously. Then you release handbrake, give gas and engage the clutch, you drive away without rolling back :-). It's super handy when you have to travel through mountainous villages

I appreciate that Mazda made the decision not to add gas for you. I was taught to add a little gas, find the biting point and then release the handbrake when ready back in 2009 (don't really do that now that I've mastered it). My 2016 Civic Type R is straight up to 1,500rpm as soon as you touch the gas to move off. If you don't touch the gas, it'll add a little bit too which is handy for slow moving traffic. I can't remember ever stalling it in the 4 years I've had it but I really did hate losing that control to start with, especially in something considered fast and sporty.

You can learn either way honestly but I think you're right, it's definitely easier to learn to pull away from a stop when you apply some gas first. The best way to learn in general is to start with the easiest technique possible and work your way up to the more advanced techniques of a particular skillset. Pulling away without any gas is pretty useful for learning the bite point on the clutch pedal though.

Hey Richard, wanted to say a massive thanks to you for your content, it would be an understatement to say you helped. Embarrassed to say im 38yo, had a bit of a turbulent life so i first had a handful of lessons at 17yo, lost my job and some other things happened throughout life, I had one lesson about 10 years later then had to stop again, been about 10 years again passed and i took around maybe 10 hours of lessons watched a lot of your videos, studied them meticulously, religiously, i like to think of myself as a good student and i wanted as much of your knowledge as possible, I feel you do a pretty exceptional job at handing this to us in your videos. I sat my test a few weeks ago and got it first time, 5 minors, stupid ones i only make on a bad day which i had tbh, and it was raining, and there were cars pulling out when they shouldnt, people crossing when they shouldnt, i got my wish for bad conditions and random difficulty multipliers lol, after these years i had a point to prove, thanks for helping me make it, going to keep watching your content to because i do really enjoy it, and theres plenty still to learn for me.

There's a few hills I've travelled on (In wales) that give me this vibe. Short, but extremely steep in places. My driving instructor used to take me to a somewhat steep hill to practise this stuff specifically, as the area I was taking my test in was everything but flat and straight road. I got used to having to make the minute adjustments with both the clutch and accelerator to get these down pretty well. You know if it wasn't a good because you'd start rolling lol, and that was super freaky The worst hill was when I was at uni and my mom was driving (shes much better than I am) and we took a 'shortcut' back to campus. There were no houses, just hedges, and it felt like we were going to tip over backwards, at one point it was so steep you couldn't see the road, just sky and the tops of hedges.

I'm an American who only owns manual vehicles. I learned to drive on manual vehicles, and I plan to only own manual vehicles because its what I've always known and comfortable with. Its interesting to see the techniques used by other manual drivers on hills. Personally I use my 1999 corolla's handbrake to start on a hill. In my 1996 ford ranger however ,I don't have a handbrake, so you have to give lots of gas (About 2,500 revs) and release the clutch. (Both of my vehicles don't have a rev gauge. So its all done by ear...) When I was learning how to drive when I was 15, (I'm 21) my dad taught me to release the clutch as I push on the accelerator pedal. Basically a simultaneous movement of both feet. keeping the engine at a certain rpm whilst the clutch engages. I've started on some steep hills, but I have to say that there's a chance I may stall on this one. :)

You're an experienced driver, you shouldn't be using it that much." When I told him who I had been trained by, he nodded and understood.

22yrs ago, before the age of all of these electronic driver aids, I too was a driving instructor. And back then, the hill start taught was always a bit of gas, clutch to biting point, handbrake off, observation checks, signal, increase gas, clutch up smoothly, gas as required. However, that did rely on an efficient handbrake, and wasn't normally executed on a 1:4 hill! I'd bet than a lot of cars handbrakes would struggle to hold on a hill like that. It reminds me of the hill up from the Carey Arms at Babbacombe, Torquay. Lots of drivers would walk down to get their car and leave their partner at the pub. However, after then stopping to pick them up, many then struggled to pull away again!

I've gotta disagree, mate. Even in diesel cars, you can still stall against such inclines. I have a big diesel manual car and I realised this when I first took it to Hastings. Even with a big engine, it was stalling on hills as I just allowed the clutch to move. I stalled 3-4 times in a row and realised that I've got to put some gas within the biting point to move away smoothly, and eventually did. For all those learners and even experienced drivers, when driving up sharp hills/roads, when driving off at the bottom of the hill from a standstill, get a STRONG biting point. I.e., lift the clutch slightly and press on the gas simultaneously. When you drive off then, press the gas hard. Do not think that just because you have moved away, you can be gentle. The car will start to fall back, and the manual transmission comes under stress. Anyhow, great video. Love your commitment.

These videos are very helpful also to those that have recently passed and have purchased an older car like myself. I have a 2005 ford fiesta and it is very different from driving an assisted kind of car to having an old car that does not have any of these features new cars have. I drove in my car today and stalled it twice on a hill and it stressed me out a lot because I always used clutch control in my instructors car that has power assistance on it but going to an older car that does not have this I find it very difficult to get out of junctions fast without stalling the car or going super slow. I am planing on practising this tomorrow so we will see how that goes but thank you so much for your videos!! They are so much more helpful than a lot of other videos I have come across.

Good luck with your advanced test. Is it IAM? I took my IAM test abut 10 years after passing my ordinary test and was pleased that I passed first time, after I'd only passed on my third test for the normal test. The hardest thing I had to unlearn was the stupid change-down-sequentially-through-the-gears which the normal test expected when I took it (1981). Now it's second nature to brake almost to a halt in (for example) sixth and then go directly into third, second or first according to what the road conditions need as I'm about to start accelerating out of the junction. I was once filing som driving scenes for an amateur video that a group of us were shooting for a night-school course, and people said "You're doing it all wrong - you look too skilled and professional" So I had to deliberately revert to sequential changing down and throw in a bit of crossing my hands on the steering wheel. Nowadays, the ordinary test allows direct 6th-to-2nd changes etc. My instructor for my normal test was an ex police Class 1 driving instructor before he retired and after I passed, he gave me a lesson on how to drive *properly* rather driving to pass the test - that's what first got my interested in doing the IAM test. I wish I'd phoned him up when I passed the IAM test because he'd have been chuffed that one of his pupils had done the IAM test. I lived in Bristol for several years because I was at university there. I never encountered the steep hill. I'll have to look up on Google Streetview and see where it is.

The hill hold assist is such a life saver if you have a nice enough car to have it because it makes coming off on a steep hill so much easier and prevent rolling back to other cars behind. If you don't have it, you have to use the handbrake which is an extra step that could either help or hurt if depending on how good you are with multitasking. Alternatively, immediately accelerate after coming off the brake with the clutch already at the bite point which could also hurt you by having too much wheel spins and lost grip if not stalling and going back instead of forward if it's too steep. So when that's the case, you have to go back and get a flatter road to gain momentum in order to go.

Modern cars have idle speed control valves although, some manufacturers adjust the ignition timing to make it idle even lower (at least that's what I read). Technically, petrol engines add more air to increase the idle speed, bypassing the throttle body, consequently drawing in more fuel. To confuse things even more, some petrol engines don't have throttle bodies, they adjust the inlet valves to control throttle position. I remember when the new front wheel drive Ford Transit came out. We had a trailer with a roller on it, no matter how hard we tried, couldn't get it up the hill. All the weight was on the back, front wheels kept spinning. In the end we had to use the old rear wheel drive Transit.

Been driving manual for 30 years. Right foot on brake, left foot on clutch. Lift off the clutch until you feel the bite point. The car will feel like it wants to move forward. Move right foot to gas pedal and apply gas to raise rpms while releasing the clutch pedal. If you are on a steep hill, stopped, you can use the hand brake until your right foot is on the gas, then release the hand brake as you apply more gas and slip the clutch.

I was taught in a diesel X1, in which I was never taught to add gas when moving off, only to increase the speed and move on to shift up a gear. When I had to learn to drive in manual petrol cars, I managed to be successful moving of once or twice, but then the third time I’d always get overconfident on the clutch and then I’d give too little gas to get it to move off with the way in which I was letting go of the clutch and well, a number of disappointing experiences (trying) entering junctions. Also, I am still somewhat afraid when doing a hill start. Fortunately the Netherlands, where I live, doesn’t have many hills!

That street is properly steep, and worth driving up. I was driving a rented Fiat 500 with not a lot of power, it made it up in first gear without too much hassle but complained when I tried 2nd gear.

Today was the third day of driving lessons. My dad was instructing and to my surprise I just learned to start a car on an uphill road and drive!
I HAD TO STOP THE TEST!
