Bro maintains calmness in people

[@jse_illustrations]

one of the few people who tells you what to do instead of yelling

[@boggingtonageism1028]

very impressed with your patience and helpful instructions 👍

[@Ava_sarala]

Great explanation

[@Patrk38]

My instructor would just yell at me

[@6lik6]

your voice reminded me of a calmer version of this one youtube that makes alcoholic drinks and always yells. i was like no way he’s a driving instructor as well 😂

[@Bashuudraws]

Wonderful clutch control, also damn so many cameras, is it easy to set up?? @DrivingSchoolTV

[@Eastsidegeorgiaboy]

Great job.

[@Charlie-nc3cp]

I find it easier to use a tiny bit of heel and toe when hillstarting. Even if you are bad at heel and toe, you can still get your heel down on the gas somewhat before you have to let off the brakes and clutch that way. Every friend I've seen roll back at a set of lights on a hill in a manual car I've taught how to do it and its apparently very easy to pick up on if you already drive a manual, regardless of driving skill level

[@cameroncoan9992]

Is this bad for the clutch tho? Because your holding the clutch at bite point but not letting it move

[@o_noori1943]

A couple seconds is fine, this seems to be a little over that but it's a one off occurance

[@SCALES1992]

I miss the UK so much...such an amazing experience as an American.

[@_Professor_Oak]

I'm curious about what you liked about the UK, there's a popular generalization that Americans don't think much about other countries and think anything that is different from the way they do things is crazy or weird.

​@@_Professor_Oakreally?? I love the idea of checking out other countries and seeing different cultures and so many people I know in the U.S. visit other countries all the time.

[@evanmoss6895]

I will try this advice when the sky turns on. Been struggling with this technique. I can do the handbrake technique well

[@user-jg6vw3em9f]

In all my years of driving never thought you could use the clutch / brake as a biting point on hills without using the handbrake. Can you use this method on steep hills?

[@lu-cthecynical]

If the hill is very steep it's easier both on you and the clutch to use the handbrake. If the hill is not that steep, using the clutch like this is perfectly fine, and we're even taught to do it this way

[@JohnnyDIII95]

On a steep hill you can use the brake as well instead of the handbrake. That’s how I was taught. As for me I found it to be easier using the brake instead of the handbrake

[@AkiiZ-xs6wf]

On a steep hill you can use the clutch and gas, because sometimes the momentum the clutch gives might not be enough and you still roll back so just add just enough gas to stay in place

[@jarreds602]

It's hard doing the handbrake when it's the twist one

[@LH20027]

In most car manuals it states not to use the clutch this way on hills as it ruins your clutch. if you are going to be a short while then go for it, but otherwise use the handbrake to save the clutch. I hate the way this is being taught to learners as clutches are expensive.

[@Billy313rd]

Well done ma'am

[@naltalash]

I wish my teacher was as patient as you

[@picklestheswift]

Well done 👏👏 Has the Merc got hill hole assist?

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

It does. But it’s not active. You can tell that from where she comes off the brake and the car rolls backwards!

[@lui4848]

I’m learning all this shit 1 1/2 years in I’m slow😭

[@62100]

Is this a diesel car? Cuz i thought you can't move clutch to biting point without using a gas

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

It’s a petrol A180. You can find the bite but if you try and set off too quick without gas you’ll likely stall

[@_Professor_Oak]

You can always find the biting point before you add gas, no matter the car. If you stall you've brought it up too far, as demonstrated in the video, she stalled by doing just that.

[@mehrajhassen8998]

@@DrivingSchoolTVcan I press gas peddle first then get biting point ? While hand break is on ?

[@brandyplays6134]

Wish you were my instructor

[@canyonjohnson7966]

Does this prematurely wear the clutch?

[@nevermind6245]

No. It is only applies just before we want to move, so it won't wear the clutch.

[@justinthaggard8767]

What about on a really steep hill does it work the same?

[@Adoe123]

Yes just add more gas than usual and you’ll be fine

[@oxygen454]

Isn’t that riding the clutch? Will burn out the clutch faster?

[@dennis-nz5im]

Mechanic is that dude bruh

[@_Professor_Oak]

No because she's not moving. "Riding the clutch" refers to moving with the clutch not fully engaged, usually done by being too slow to bring the pedal up when accelerating, but obviously too quick and the cars gonna jerk or even stall. All about the balance.

[@oxygen454]

When I was first learning standard driving, I kept the clutch partially engaged and the truck didn't move but you could smell it burning.

[@SeanMansMansfr]

Nice, i just learned 2 days ago, now im used to driving my family ca, but not yet at the streets, not in the highway (Edit) Im only 14

[@EricEgot]

Is there anything wrong with a hillstart with handbrake if you're quick with it?

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

nah nothing at all wrong with it!

[@user-ol5gr7kt1g]

bite point clutch and brake, looking for gaps and give gas ...done

[@ghost_trapz5932]

Some cars will stall if you raise the clutch to the biting point without adding gas

[@_Professor_Oak]

@@ghost_trapz5932 only if the clutch is worn or you bring the pedal up too far.

Her mistake is her foots off the floor,

How do you mean? Do you know people that use the clutch with their heel planted..?
