I see what you're saying but in this instance, you could see him already in the road on the other side. So the driver had plenty of time to slow down. But for me, when I was taking an immediate first left off a roundabout (has a crossing immediately after, which in a blind spot), you can't always guarantee you'll see someone crossing. But in her case, the person was crossing from the opposite side.

5:02 - I have a question... my girlfriend is getting ready for her practical exam soon so she pointed out this clip and asked why fault was given. I have 12 years driving experience and cats A, B, BE and C and I cannot find any valid rule or answer why fault was given. I would understand if the light would have been flashing amber, or just turned green - the reasoning would be that pedestrian started crossing through the green signal and was just completing the crossing. That is fine - you should always allow pedestrians (and other cars) to complete crossing IF THEY STARTED CROSSING DURING PERMITTED SIGNAL. In this case it is clear that it was greed light for the car and it was red light for pedestrian - he was not permitted to cross and clearly entered the crossing on the red signal. In such case it does not matter if he is half way the crossing - his crossing was invalid from the beginning. On the other hand driver would have to brake sharply during green signal and on the turn/exit from roundabout thus creating dangerous situation for car behind her. Am I missing something here?
@AdvanceDrivingSchool5 жыл бұрын
It was an unusual situation, but the Highway Code says that a green traffic light means go if it is safe to do so (i.e. there are not pedestrians crossing) and there is space for your vehicle on the other side of the junction. The pedestrian was visible well before we left the roundabout, so there was no need to brake suddenly.

So in theory at 70mph if the examiner says "Show me how to wash the front windscreen" and the candidate cannot do this because it is a bit too dangerous potentially causing swerving. What would be the real life situation at 70mph if a large vehicle suddenly covered one's windscreen in detritus making it impossible to see anything. How exactly would one ignore this and concentrate on the road which we can no longer see?

In my test, I was asked a show me tell me question and I simply said "I'll do it in a sec" as she asked me to do it when I was going round on a blind bend. She said it was fine to do so. It just depends if it's safe enough to follow the show/me Q. In real life, there's less pressure to pass/examiner, etc. so obvs you'd be able to direct your attention away from what's in front of you in order to press a button or whatever.

As what Advance Driving School mentioned, in real life we may need to do these things on dual-carriageway which happened to me just yesterday on my driving lessons. I was driving at a national speed limit road then it just started raining heavily. The downpour is starting to affect my visibility of the road and my instructor asked me to turn on the wipers which I did. I know the wipers are not part of the Show Me questions but it is part of the ancillary controls of the car. The whole point of the Show Me questions is you should know the ancillary controls of your car should you need to operate them when needed (be it on 20, 30, 40 or 70mph), and of course, when it is safe to do so.

Great video, I suppose it boils down to if you enjoy driving and the freedom it gives and like cars you are more likely to pass, also if you are like me I get nervous, tests are always a nightmare for me, I think its important people just go into it enjoying it and treat it like driving generally and then you won't be as nervous. When I was younger I had problems in my head, now I am more settled and more experienced at life so arent so nervous about things. If you enjoy something you always do better at it, and if you dont enjoy driving generally you probably shouldnt do it! I still have nerve and phtsical problems but I am much more cool about it and just take each day it comes. But driving it like any thing if you enjoy it you will love learning about it

I failed again on my driving test, this was the reason. I was asked to take the right exit on both upcoming roundabouts. I completed the first roundabout perfectly but instead of staying in the right lane I indicated left, checked my mirrors and moved over. My examiner panicked as he thought I was going to collide with the car behind me as he thought I didn’t check my mirrors. I remember definitely checking my mirror there but he has decided to give me a serious fault therefore I failed. I did however move over to the right after I realised I should’ve stayed there. Do you think I deserve a fail for that ? I personally think it’s a bit unfair.

We will probably film more mock test videos, but we are wary of becoming a ‘mock test channel’ and allowing people that are clearly not ready to drive independently to make a fool of themselves for our entertainment. That’s why we only film our own actual pupils when they are close to test standard.

Hello, thank you very much for your material, advice and support. Just one question because I got confused: at 25 'Annabel needed to take the second exit at the roundabout and use her right hand on the road to do it. I thought that the 12 o'clock rule indicates that for the first and second exit you must use the left side ... Please, if you can give a clarification on this point I thank you in advance. Once again, I really appreciate her support and material.

We cut out the start of the test a little, but yes it was probably a little on the short side. If this happens on a real test the examiner will add a little onto the route to ensure it lasts at least 36 minutes.

Hi When I am driving in a narrow road where parked vehicles both sides and oncoming vehicles too , if my car drift to the left side just a little bit and if I still could control and managed the situation is it a serious fault. Instructor did not touch the wheels but he lean forward and said be careful.He said my steering wheel wasn't straight. I am confused and need to sort this out. Thanks
@AdvanceDrivingSchool5 жыл бұрын
We should try to keep a full metre gap (about a doors width) between our car and other parked cars - just in case someone opens their car door suddenly or a careless pedestrian steps out. If we are in a narrow street and there isn't enough space, then we must drive slower to reduce the risk of being closer to the other cars. So the closer we need to go, the slower we must drive. Just remember how easily we could do thousands of pounds of damage or injure someone, and be very careful when necessary. Good luck!
