With the effort you put into these videos I'm surprised you don't have over 100k subs, keep up the work! Very detailed and helps a lot of learner drivers

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you AJ! I’ll keep doing what I’m doing. Really appreciate the comment 😊

[@artemkatelnytskyi]

I loved this video. Your explanations are superb and the editing is very nice. Very insightful. The only suggestion I have is you could put clips of what was happenings during the test in the debrief, so it is a bit easier to understand what you're talking about. Thanks for the great job.

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you! I’m glad you liked it. That’s a good idea Artem… I’ll look at doing that on the next one 👍😊

[@darrencarter2566]

Your last comment at the end about the examiner was spot on. I also add you can't guarantee what route and traffic conditions you're going to get either. Great video as always. keep up the good work 👍

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you! You make a good point there!! I’ll do my best 😊

[@JohnWarren]

I'm sure with a couple of lessons Sacha will become a perfect driver - he's well on the way already! Got my test tomorrow and the fact you're so calm in your videos and keep reiterating "it's just a drive" has really helped my nerves. Fingers crossed!

[@GetWheelDriving]

He is well on the way it’s true. He’s a good driver. Good luck tomorrow! Stay alert but relaxed, focus on what’s important, the road and not the day or examiner and you’ll be just fine. You’ve got this as long as you’ve put the practise in. You’re ready! Let me know how it goes. Would love to hear 😊

[@JohnWarren]

@@GetWheelDriving Thank you! I’ll try remember to let you know :)

[@JohnWarren]

@@GetWheelDriving Passed today with 2 minors. Thank you for all your videos! Will continue to watch and support even though I’m on the other side :)

[@GetWheelDriving]

@@JohnWarren amazing!!! Sacha passed today too. It’s been a very good day all in all. I’m very happy to hear John you smashed it!

[@JohnWarren]

@@GetWheelDriving Awesome, great to hear Sacha passed too! As my mum said, the real learning starts now😅

[@sacreblue_ross5787]

Poor lad, he really is fuming!! Relax and enjoy the ride.

[@GetWheelDriving]

Yes he was!!! High achievers tend to put a lot of pressure on themselves. If this man relaxes he’ll smash it!

[@Uniques97]

I Don't know if you're reading these comments Sacha, but if you are, I also get very Anxious in tests / exams and think the worst. My examiner luckily was a talkative guy, but it might be worth having the radio on quietly as I did for my test to try and fill the empty air and potentially calm you down as you aren't just focusing on what the examiner is doing. Make sure it's quiet if you do it as you dont want it taking focus away from the road and you need to be able to hear the examiers insteuctions. You're a good little driver and I wish you the best for your test!

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you for this!!! I’ll make sure he does! 😊

[@Coruption12]

Doing Mill HIll at 2.30PM, thanks for your content.

[@GetWheelDriving]

Good luck!!!! Stay calm, focused. Ignore all distractions just focus on what’s in front of you and behind. You got this!!

[@GetWheelDriving]

😝 I don’t think you’re too far wrong there! 😂🤷‍♂️

[@zoezebra4013]

18:45 slip road I'm still unsure what he did wrong other than potentially missing signal. when it comes to observation you both turned heads right at the top just when you got visibility and that was all good to me

[@GetWheelDriving]

Great comment!! Yes we both looked at the same time but ask yourself two questions. If something had been coming what sort of stop would it have been? And what could happen if someone was too close behind us? I love the question! I always recommend challenge everything!!

[@qingyangjia143]

So if there was no gap when joining that dual carriageway, should he have stopped and waited?

[@GetWheelDriving]

@@qingyangjia143 yes 100%

[@yoyo-gv8zs]

18:50 signal were? When going onto the slip road?

[@GetWheelDriving]

Yes no signal. Should have signalled for entry onto dual carriageway.

[@yoyo-gv8zs]

@@GetWheelDriving but there is no other way/road other than the carriage way. The car behind him didn't signal as well. But ok I will keep that in mind

[@djvdufubcd5932]

Roland please make a video on rev matching

[@GetWheelDriving]

I’ll see what I can do. 😊

[@Slowcarfastbeans]

In the US, they do not allow street parking in a direction opposite of travel. Seems like a chaotic mess otherwise and increases the risk when entering or leaving a parking spot.

[@GetWheelDriving]

It’s a bit confusing here in the UK. The rule is “Do not park facing against the flow of traffic” which means don’t parallel park on the wrong side. However you are permitted to pull up on the right accept at night. but it’s not recommended. It was always puzzling as to why they put it on the driving test but there it is! 🤷‍♂️

[@cathybryant5119]

I moved to the UK from the US and have a visceral response when asked to pull up on the right. Every fibre of my body is screaming "NO". I would never, never do this in real life and am shocked that I must do it in order to be able to pass my test.

[@JJ-yb2qi]

Great video as always, love your analysis on these! On the serious at the mini roundabout, shouldn't the red car give way to Sacha?

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you! Yes the red car should be giving way to Sacha but he should have thought about using it as a shield. If he had let go it would have blocked the Range Rover. Does that make sense?

[@JJ-yb2qi]

@@GetWheelDriving Thanks for the explanation! Initially in the video I thought you meant the Range Rover behind the red car, but it was the one to the right 😄 Having my test next week at Hendon and these have been very useful!

[@GetWheelDriving]

Aaaaah maybe I didn’t explain it as well as I thought 🙈 Good luck for next week! You’ve got this!

[@Uniques97]

@@JJ-yb2qi Good Luck

[@karl2o1l]

when i passed my test my examiner did the park on the right and reverse but he told me to ignore any driveways so made it much easier.

[@GetWheelDriving]

That definitely makes it easier!

[@Florence-v2y]

Where about do you stay, do you do automatic lessons?

[@thomasduffy1242]

Another great vid. Not sure what people mean about allowing the candidate to feel more relaxed in a mock test? In lessons yes, On both my driving test and HGV test the examiner's did not speak unless giving clear instruction. Thought that was the norm

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you!! I guess it is. Some are chatty and friendly. That tends to relax the candidate much more as long as it doesn’t become a distraction. An examiner should be aware of the stress a pupil would be under and try to make them feel more comfortable, however as I said in the vid some are better at it then others.

[@Uniques97]

When I took my test earlier this week, I was talking to my examiner about video games, TV shows etc etc. As someone who suffers with Anxiety, it made me feel a lot more at ease and made it feel like just another lesson.

[@thomasduffy1242]

@@Uniques97 interesting, did the examiner initiate the conversation or yourself? How did you get on?

[@drivingsafe]

driving over mini roundabout is a must not rule!!!

[@GetWheelDriving]

Yes it is… however sometime they don’t position them properly making it difficult if not impossible to avoid. All factors must be taken into consideration. But yes well said!

[@noqka]

I'm so confused about 18:36 1. Where's this junction, the only one I see is to the left, which I'm not sure it's the one your refering to? 2. Why is there 2 opposing lanes on a slip road I'm so confused

[@GetWheelDriving]

If you’re talking about the mini roundabout have a look at the pinned comment. I did a vid to explain it more clearly. The slip road is not like a normal slip road. Visibility is quite poor until you are close to the exit of the slip so he just approached it a bit too fast.

[@CerebralRiches]

He doesn't look in the mirrors, he looks at them. 4:10, 18:25 are the ones i captured, there were more. No way you can see the traffic while looking so short at it.

[@GetWheelDriving]

You make a very good point! Yes sometimes we look but don’t actually see. However in test he would literally have to miss something for it to be faulted as he is looking. Very good point!! 👍

[@statix]

i was really confused about the t roundabout, i thought you only give way to the right so the red car should give way to the learner?

[@GetWheelDriving]

I have a feeling I haven’t explained it properly. Yes the red car should give way to Sacha but Sacha should have let the red car go therefore blocking the vehicles on Sacha’s right. Does that make sense?

[@statix]

@@GetWheelDriving thank you, i understand now

[@nippz2831]

@@GetWheelDriving i disagree the car to his right already was blocking anyone entering so the red car should wait

[@nippz2831]

im sorry but the mini roundabout should not be a fault he has priority the mazda shouldve slowed down for him to pass

[@GetWheelDriving]

I’m going to redo the analysis in another short vid because it’s not clear enough. The Mazda was the solution not the fault. He blocked the Range Rover on his right. Look at it again and you will see the fault. However it’s my fault that I wasn’t clear enough in explanation.

[@Dannysdrivingschool]

Hilarious at the start 😂 Sasha is really good though just was a bit unfortunate with them tough roads, do you think Roland that when devising the test routes the test center manager knows what bits will catch people out like that bend ..probably stating the obvious there but is that the motive when coming up with routes to catch people out or test people and make them better or are they same thing 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ I feel sometimes they look for quirks in the road

[@GetWheelDriving]

Thank you Danny!! It’s very possible. I’m sure they will find routes or make sure a particular junction or road type is in the test. I don’t think they go out of there way to trick candidates but sometimes it feels like that. We’re all human. They do revise them if they realise, eventually, if it’s unfair…

[@Dannysdrivingschool]

@@GetWheelDriving yeah that’s what I have struggled with ,I feel it’s us vs them at times and it’s a game of cat and mouse .. entrapment is a strong word, I think it’s probably somewhere in the middle , I hope the motive is always to improve candidates and push us to improve candidates .. and all these junctions exist so I get it , I think I just feel annoyed when my pupils get caught out 🙈

[@ellisfletcher3491]

16:17 Surely that is the fault of the red toyota as they should give way to the right. He shouldnt have to wait for that red toyota as they are on the left? Could be a minor rather than serious

[@Businomical]

Yes I think this also, why did the instructor give it as a fault then

[@GetWheelDriving]

It’s not because of the red car that he picks up a serious fault. Please have a look at this vid for an explanation. SERIOUS FAULT EXPLAINED ON MOCK DRIVING TEST kzbin.info/www/bejne/iZ-oeGlojdGKpJI
