[@ryanwilliams6526]

I had my 1998 Rover 211 on the road last year (swapped over to my mighty 214 this year). 60bhp and far from fast, but it handles well and was a great vehicle for my first year on the road actually. Overtaking requires plenty of planning, and you have to be in the right gear before you can see if the road's clear, because every second is valuable.

[@VinnesRC]

The problem is that they do drive over the speed limit, but only in the same places you want to overtake. A slight bend in the road and they might be going 50kph instead of 80kph, but when you get to a straight where you want to overtake they are going 85-90! Incredibly frustrating, makes you have to go way past the speed limit to get past before you hit more curves.

[@whitewolf9159]

I almost fucking died while overtaking one. I knew the road and planned ahead since the truck was going 70Km/h as I was halfway through cars popped up ahead and I realized something. The cunt in the truck sped up to 90. I was never gonna break it so I slammed the brakes and went back into the line. Since that day I havent even thought about overtaking a truck.

[@tomnetwork1234]

I find it is a lot better/ easier if you hold back a bit from the car in front to give you room to accelerate into the overtake, to minimise the amount of time you're on the other side of the road

[@tomj.]

In theory, advanced driving states that you should be moving out to the offside, confirming the view, then accelerating, rather than accelerating before moving out. Doing so could mean that if you start accelerating, move out and the view actually isn't there, you have to slam on to avoid going into the back of the car in front. In reality, this is often easier said than done especially in lower-powered cars.

[@edewaal97]

@@tomj. That's true. I also miss the que for if it isn't clear, just fall back behind the car. For example the overtake of the bus. The overtake of the car was fine, but the overtake of the bus should've been broken off. Stay behind, create room by slowing down a lot, wait for visibility and try again. The Dutch police has a couple of video's scattered around about the "voortgezette rijopleiding".

[@sbxamedhi]

I do this, and also never overtake unless I got view from the original lane and I'm 100% sure I can accelerate, change lanes, overtake, and come to my lane, all as fast as I can and with lots of room to the car im passing.

[@BadgerBob]

This is bad because it means your lose to much time catching the vehicle. You should be closer to the car, near the centre line, in a gear lower than you would normally for that speed to give maximum acceleration. Then move to the OS for view, and accelerate past if it’s on. That’s the safe and efficient way.

[@frodej6640]

@@BadgerBob You do not lose time catching the vehicle. The way I see it is that the time spent accelerating happens before you change lane, so that the time doing the overtake is done with maximum preferred speed all the time, shortening the time and distance to a minimum. But doing this, you must consider that you might call off the overtake in the last second if situation has changed. This leads to poor driving and poor fuel economy. It is imperative that this must be done with safety in mind and not being reckless. On busy roads, or roads with few opportunities, making the most of the little road you have is good. That said, I don't do this that often myself. I like to have some distance when overtaking.

I also often calculate the net risk v gain of an overtake. How often have you had someone make a risky pass and then 10kms down the road at the next market town you catch them up at the lights. Better arrive 5 minutes later, than not at all!

[@blertaer4692]

Exactly.

[@Tom_Hadler]

200bhp is plenty enough for overtakes in nearly all normal situations in UK. Depends on car weight of course. Although more is welcome. It actually is the torque you need. Audi TT 197bhp, turbo torque...never had an issue overtaking. Almost overtake at will. I used to get by with 120 with a free revving engine, but more power than that is certainly very helpful. I think if I had 500bhp I'd overshoot

[@zaink7037]

The main thing i think to myself is is it worth overtaking? On a main road / city i dont think so as youll likely stop at the next set of lights. On a dual carriageway or motorway theres less risk as you have a overtaking lane which likely would be clear

[@szymusu]

This video on autoplay: - so you wanna get a head, ah? Me: - wth, am I still on youtube??

[@76magg]

Even 200HP is pretty much. I remember when I was trying to make overtakes inside car that have 80HP or even less. Have no idea if it is an English word for such technique: You drive behind a car you want to overtake. You know or see, that there will be (or might be) a long straight road after a corner, so you slow down a bit before corner, to build separation distance. On the corner you are increasing your speed, so when you both are going out of it, you are just behind your victim and you have speed greater than him. You check the road and make decision - breaks and slow down, because you have no option to overtake OR keep increasing speed and start overtake. You also use it on a long straight road, when you see cars coming from opposite direction. Increase distance when they are coming, then speed up and jump on their lane just after passing last one of them. With speed difference already build - without need of just building it with your small engine.

[@VinnesRC]

I would call it the "sling shot" technique, very effective.

Absolutely terrific demonstration of how to do the overtake maneuver! I never saw the action in that sense, more torque/power, means the more easier it is to pass the car in front. The less you have, the greater the challenge it is to do so! Here in America, I favor a larger displacement engine that is equipped for the job, but I own a Japanese sports car (3.7 V6 Z roadster). Unlike the German example, mine only has around 300 HP, though it is not hard to do overtakes. Granted I have to use the RIGHT octane for the best performance, much thanks and respect for making this video! Hopefully more drivers across the world can learn from your teachings!

[@Max-hn5tc]

The craziest thing I've seen were how people overtake in a small country called Abkhazia (between Russia and Georgia). I doubt even half of them have licenses but they all drive probably 200+ hp Lexuses, Toyotas and Nissans and they absolutely dont give a single F about safety, they can overtake when the big line of oncoming traffic is coming up or have a train of overtakers, etc. Pretty crazy and scary to drive around them, id call it the "YOLO overtake". Also, one time there was a truck driving very slowly, one car decided to overtake but it was too slow for another guy who decided to overtake him using the curb of the opposite lane XD

[@TimpBizkit]

If you are about to overtake 2 vehicles at once, make sure the one in front isn't planning to overtake at the same time. I almost rear ended my work colleague at 80 mph on the way home doing this.

There's also the aspect of junctions/driveways. Obviously don't overtake near a junction, but what about driveways? I guarantee not everyone will look left when turning left out of a driveway, serious consequences if they collide with a car that's overtaking. (5:19 as an example) Also, you can't see the indicators of the car infront of your car when you're doing a double overtake. What if they're indicating to turn right in to a driveway? Okay technically they shouldn't do the manouevre, but it would be a tricky situation, they'd either have to slam on their brakes so they don't overshoot the driveway, or keep driving forwards. Just a few things that popped into my mind.

[@SpiritedSundayDrives]

Yes, that was a bad pass and you would not do that under advanced test conditions. If there is any risk at all of anything on the right (as there was in this case) you abandon the pass, for all the reasons you say. Also the driver in this video is not executing the pass correctly; they are accelerating into the overtake while still on their side of the road, whereas you actually should swap sides while maintaining the same matched speed, only accelerating past when you know for certain it’s clear. That way you can easily drop back in with no braking or messiness if you see something untoward (like that opening on the right) once the view fully opens up. Overtaking textbook as above also deals with the double pass/possible indicator problem you mention, because you check the entire queue plus note all possible ducking in points BEFORE you commit to the pass. If this driver had executed like this, they’d not have made the error with the bus as the curve was clearly visible once on the opposing side, but they’d already committed to the pass before getting full vision in this way. Not saying this driver is dangerous, just sloppy and likely not trained to the advanced standard as they drum these sorts of bad habits out of you.

[@mediocre-motorcycle-modifi6818]

Try it in a 44hp Corsa B with single point injection SOHC. You have to accelerate up to the car in front before you get to the straight to carry the momentum around.

[@eleftheriosgkioulekas1001]

Lovely video. With 170hp I always floor it on overtakes, speed be damned. Love your vids.

[@irfanbaig8776]

It’s not just the horsepower, but also the available torque that allows for quick acceleration for a safe and quick overtake. The M2 with manual transmission has 406 lb-ft of torque making it a breeze in 3rd gear. Unfortunately many automatics have a lag in downshifting before they accelerate, especially in comfort mode.

What about torque? Having loads of torque available at relatively low rpm has a felt impact on acceleration from ~60mph. My car has very average power-to-weight ratio (260HP/2400KG) but loads of torque (600NM). I've always felt very safe overtaking with it, despite the modest HP figures.

For lower power cars, you need to use momentum to overtake. So don't start overtaking when you are doing the same speed as the car in front. You need to make a larger gap, and accelerate towards the car, and then overtake it when yoh are already have a decent speed speed differential.

It wasn't directly mentioned. I find having more horsepower make overtaking safer, since I do not need to be that much over the speed limit. Let's say you have a good distance to overtake. With a 120hp I often found myself doing the overtake 70kph over the speed limit just to get done with it in time, because it took forever to accelerate. What started out as a good distance, became too short quickly. Now I have 380hp, and I do the same overtake barely 20kph over, with loads of distance to spare. More horsepower can be used to do your things safe, it also make you keep the license easier.

I commend you for keeping the bus pass in and sharing your learning. So, how can we help you move to the next level? Ok, firstly you might bring the concept of space into play to tie together your comments on vision and risks to the sides. At the end of the day you don’t want to run out of ‘space’. Then we have communication, where is it Mick? Do we need to communicate with another progressive driver behind or should we use our approach and move into contact and launch positions to help drivers read our intentions before the overtake, do we need a warning of presence before commuting to pass a bus in a tight section of road? Remember that power brings safety, you don’t have to carry momentum, how about ‘catch, match, position, check, dispatch’. The check is your chance to see more and communicate from your launch position having already moved out. Save a ‘slide by’ momentum pass for big wide spaces. Also, with 500bhp, have s think about when you use it, as you steer out or once you have moved out and straightened up? Don’t forget the golden rule ‘only overtake if you can complete the pass in half the distance you can see to be clear - there may be another Mick coming the other way!

It's great honestly Really well geared, especially 6th is super long which is ideal for travelling. 2nd is a touch too long topping out at 72 - I would have loved if this was closer to 60 so I could enjoy another gear change without breaking the speed limit. The actual lever action is good but not great - best BMW I've driven but not as good as honda type-r products. 2-3 change in particular is tricky, but once you learn it, it's fine.

[@DashCamSerbia]

As I said in one of your previous videos, overtaking at a speed limit is dangerous. Why risk your life for some stupid speed limit? Overtake as fast as you can, then slow down to the speed limit. What 10 mph speed differential? It is an accident waiting to happen...

Hey, how much horsepower does your car have? You never really mention it in your videos

takes time to kick down, so no matter the power, you should preapre a bit earlier :D
