Independent ride - Motorcycle Module 2 training

[@stevegordon2032]

Enjoyed watching that. Experts always make things look very easy. That was smooth as silk all the way through.

[@Lets-rideUk]

Thank you Steve!

[@Ripper36068]

Many congratulations! 🥳

[@HamzaKhan-is5hj]

What a cool calm collective instructor you are your doing an amazing job you give me so much confidence just by watching the videos hahaI wish I could do my motorcycle training with you but I'm all the way in Manchester

[@Lets-rideUk]

Extremely kind words Hamza, thank you! All the best with it! 👍👍👍

[@philcaffrey]

Fab - thanks Richard. Lots of helpful nuggets in this vid. Golddust!

[@Lets-rideUk]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Lacehairwigs]

Can't wait to do my das this year.

[@FrozenDung]

Me too, currently on with it. MOD1 soon whilst it is less busy in winter I drove around Vietnam, Thailand and Laos so riding in the UK is a joke in comparison with our actual road rules 😅

[@Brandon25043]

Got my mod 2 coming up on the 18th, these videos are great for me to visually learn and take in information for when I'm on the road during training and eventually the test. much appreciated!

[@kylegreenslade9952]

Did u pass mate

[@pitchwife7573]

Yeah, let us know! How's you get on?

[@niksananiksanov6777]

Thanks for clarifying that taking wrong way wont lead to a fail as long as the safe ride remains. Taking my mod2 in a different city that im going first time since mine doesnt have mod2 bookings and the independent ride was my biggest cornern.

[@Lets-rideUk]

Glad it helped! Best of luck. 👍

[@niksananiksanov6777]

@@Lets-rideUk Thanks. Would like to ask you when it comes to turns and the instance to be a right one from 2 to 3 position if doing only right mirror-signal-shoulder without left mirror check can it be accepted by the examiner or would probably result in a minor or potential fail if continuously done through the whole test ? Just curious as ive spoke with a person who on his mod2 uploaded video was doing exactly that and i was surprised that he didnt got any minor for not doing both mirror checks regardless of the turn and focusing only on the primarily important one for the turn direction without the other one.

[@Lets-rideUk]

"Effective observation" - whatever that means! I'd imagine a singular mirror would be fine in this instance, yes. We teach both as to get a good, all-round picture of what's happening behind and to basically cover all bases!

[@martinarmer240]

Great to see these mod 2 videos (even though I just passed my mod 2!). Your videos got me through my mod1.

[@Lets-rideUk]

Congratulations Martin!

[@kylegreenslade9952]

Going to book mine I want ur opinion are these videos the best teaching for mod 1 and 2

[@martinarmer240]

​@@kylegreenslade9952 yes absolutely

[@danielgaughran-vazquez2018]

Mod 2 tomorrow! Wish me luck!

[@Lets-rideUk]

Good luck! 🤞

[@thebrowns5337]

Why do the testers like progress and max speed so much? This isn't how I drive my car as I like to be smooth. My instructor, 30 years ago,to,d me it's a limit not a target. I'm not slow and will keep up with others (although not over the limit) but I don't rag my car to get there. This is tge one thing giving me stress about the mod 2.

[@Lets-rideUk]

Appropriate speeds, but if it's safe to do the speed limit then you should do it so as not to hold up traffic behind. Some B-roads on the Poole test routes you wouldn't want to do much more than 40mph, even though they are a National.

[@brucem-j2857]

can you exit into the left hand lane if your in the far right lane at the roundabout at 6:20 ?

[@Lets-rideUk]

Possibly but you'd have to do some good checks before doing so as lanes 2 & 3 go right on this roundabout. Easier to exit into the right lane and move across when safe to. So easy for another vehicle to get in your blindspot here, or even undertake you. Or you could use late 2 to go right....

[@brucem-j2857]

@@Lets-rideUkThank you. For normal roundabouts that don’t have 2 lanes going right is it always sensible to spin off into the far left lane when exiting ?

[@Lets-rideUk]

Check out our video on that here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/one0hmmHr5ucbtU

[@KevinTurner-ec3sx]

My examiner took me out and 20 mins in he took me back to test centre.never asked me to do my own way .

[@Lets-rideUk]

Interesting. Test should be at least 35 mins on the road. It seems some examiners don't announce the independent ride, only asking the candidate to follow the signs for a particular destination.

[@thebrowns5337]

Can you filter on the test and are you expected to if you can?

[@Lets-rideUk]

Yes, and no. 👍

[@KoolRider]

Do you indicate when you change lanes on the dual carriageway?

[@Lets-rideUk]

Yes indeed. 👍

[@thebrowns5337]

​@@Lets-rideUk oddly Police driving instructors point out you don't have to and say don't bother as it may confuse other drivers at times.

[@andigorani]

Do you hate to overtake? Could you not just stay behind someone doing 10 mph under? And give yourself more time to check signs ect?

[@Lets-rideUk]

The examiner will be expecting you to overtake but you might get away with 10mph under. Probably not if it's much less.
