Failed Mock Driving Test GB - 6 Serious Reasons

[@Erinburnettauthor]

Thank you for your videos, passed second time with 2 minors in Northern Ireland - slightly different to the GB test. Turns out my friend also used your videos to pass, and he described you as 'that KZbin instructor who has been teaching for 15 years and looks about 25' 🤣 Take it as a compliment.

[@ConquerDriving]

Haha, I will certainly take that as a compliment! Thank you for your generosity, that's really kind of you and congratulations on passing your driving test.

[@GorlWorldASMR]

I just want to thank you for all the hard work you put into making videos and the detailed explanations of queries I had regarding driving. I passed first time today and I couldn’t have done it without watching your videos, I may have watched almost all of them. It’s so clear how much you care about teaching people how to drive safely. Thanks so much!

[@ConquerDriving]

That's really great to hear! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!

[@LaPortiaBel]

Watching these mock tests help me refresh what I learned during my training. Hopefully I get to practice this in my car.

@@shamsahennadesigns6279 I regularly went out driving with my father before hand which I feel gave me a lot more confidence.

I’d suggest to just keep driving as much as you possibly can so that you can experience as much different situations as possible

[@stefanr.3495]

Noticed how Ola tends to keep het left foot UNDER the clutch pedal! Big no, takes too long to reposition! Loose, fluffy or baggy clothes to be avoided when driving. I also remember my instructor telling me to firmly hold and action the controls of the car.

[@Sheena1234ization]

Good effort Ola!

Amazing video once again 👏 a true professional at your craft Richard 👏

[@barsorrro]

Ola appears so much like a ... Polish name :). This is the way to shorten the formal first name "Aleksandra" here :). And Ola appears to be such a nice, calm and focused person: I'm sure she'd taken a lot away from the advice Richard had given her and she's passed her test with but a few minors at the very worst.

[@sgttoxiiczz]

I think her holding the bite point and brake is likely something she was taught or its a habbit she's picked up due to stalling or being slow at junctions.

[@zeztrap2]

I failed my test today. 2 serious faults, speed limit on road was changed, and no sign until I was prompted to slow down. Second fault was that there was 2 cars parked right next to a traffic light so I got a serious for undue hesitation.

[@TheFullswordslord]

I just rewatched the test with examiner Jason. Luckily not all examiners are like him...

[@ConquerDriving]

Thankfully I've ever met an examiner like Jason.

[@Velvadd]

Hey Richard, my monitor has taught me to stay in 1st gear at biting point when waiting to move off, but here you are saying this would be marked as a fault, as it would damage the clutch. Is it possible that some cars don't mind the biting point hold? Or is that a mistake on my instructor's part from giving me this bad habit? Would this be marked on the test? Very helpful video as usual!

[@goblue2246]

Why is she resting her left foot under the clutch that must be pretty unsafe and awkward

[@nasheeds8218]

Many people do this and im sure i have seen richard do this. However, she definitely doesnt look the most comfortable doing this

[@barsorrro]

She's a bit shortish, so resting her foot on the designed rest would probably mean she'd have to reach for it -- she'd have to slightly move the entire leg, starting at the hip, rather than just pivot her foot like a person with longer legs and sitting further away would do. There's nothing wrong with having your left foot underneath the pedal, since it's not the brake, and in case of emergency you can brake safely even without pressing the brake -- you will just stall at the end, no problem about that. Having her leg like that probably feels much more comfortable, since the leg is more in line with the rest of the body.

@@keeb5168 It's not the brake, so she's not creating a risk, and her being short, using the designed footrest would probably mean she'd have to move her entire leg to the side, instead of having it more or less in line with the rest of the body. Dog I cringe when people are too dumb to look at things from more perspectives than just their one and narrow.

Watching this and knowing I never have these issues with clutch etc as I have an automatic makes me feel so safe. I hope in 20 years 90% of the cars in the UK are automatic.

[@somerandomguywastaken]

That's a very bad take. You might not worry about a clutch, but you should worry about your transmission that is basically unfixable and when u break it, will cost you thousands. A clutch is cheap, auto isnt

[@leeredpath8640]

I have the original clutch in my car and pupils sit on bite with the break on . 123000 miles

[@danielkoroma6977]

The feet position is not appropriate also

[@AJ-cd2ox]

At 26.44, she tries to lift clutch to bite while pressing the brake, on a hill, it can work, but apart from using the handbrake here, the onny other option is to hold the car still with the gas & bite, but if she goes from the brake to the gas, won't the car rollback?

[@nasheeds8218]

Well thats what the bite point is for, if she is at the bite point the car could be able to stay still depending on how steep the hill is, but then she should add gas before lifting the clutch off the bite to make it less likely to stall. Alot of new cars have hill hold assist. So as soon as you release the brake, the car will stay give you around three seconds to get the gas, if not it will roll back

[@ConquerDriving]

[@AJ-cd2ox]

@@ConquerDriving but using a handbrake start at some junctions uphill such as a roundabout, would slow moving off down? My instructor told me ALL cars can use the clutch and brake uphill to stop, then hold the brake and lift the clutch to find bite, then lift the clutch to move uphill a little before adding gas to go..

[@somerandomguywastaken]

I got a question about speed on the test. Let's say you got taken on a 70mph road, could you go 60 in the left lane without a fault. I'm asking cos the car I got rn is at 3.2k rpm at 60 so that's around the speed I go on motorways. If I was to take a test in it, what would happen

[@nasheeds8218]

Well you have to demonstrate or at least make them aware that you know its a 70, if its safe to do so you should get as close to 70 as possible. I think you will be alright because alot of the time a car in the left lane will be going 60 anyways and you wont need to overtake them unless theyre going alot less than 70 . Maybe if you held a speed of 62 or so it would show the examiner that you know its not a 60 but also it wont increase the revs too much

[@somerandomguywastaken]

@@nasheeds8218 yh I drive in the left lane 99% of the time which is around 60 but I've also seen some mock tests where learners were given serious for not hitting the 70 while following slower traffic

[@ConquerDriving]

Generally it will be marked down for appropriate speed if it's safe to go close to the speed limit and you're going quite a bit slower.

[@Andrei8pa3]

What car do you have? I'm going to need to get my first car soon to commute on the motorway to work and I dont want to get a car that's going to be doing very high revs while doing 70. I'm 18 so insurance is expensive on cars that have +100hp...

[@somerandomguywastaken]

@@Andrei8pa3 don't worry about hitting 70, I was scared at first getting my car knowing 70 is not very mechanically sympathetic to it and then going to motorways. But the left lane of a motorway is always hovering around 55-60. I've done about 2k miles in the last 2 months on motorways alone. As for my car, it's a '01 plate 1.1L fiat seicento proudly with 54bhp🗣️. (It doesn't even have abs). Although I do have to say, 13" wheels feel sort of sketchy at 70+, completely chill at 60 tho
