[@danidays5918]

Thanks so much!! I’m back to relearning after 4 years of not driving and you have helped so much!! It’s a bit of a simpleton question but, when you’re breaking at different speeds such as high speed, or else being stuck in traffic in town, does it matter if you’re pressing clutch first and then break? Or break first and then clutch? Thanks for the help!

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

It's normally brake first then clutch as this gives you more control and helps you to avoid coasting, this video will explain : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qWi0m5mOqNGZo5I

[@caoimhewalsh717]

Hi Dane, Do you have to go into neutral every time you stop at lights etc? I rarely do so just wondering if I’d get marked on this. Thank you!

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

No you don't, I never advised anyone that. You can wait in neutral if you are further back in the queue but wait in first if at or near the top of the queue.

[@nicolasalvarez9762]

Great video

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

Thank you

[@shannonburke4027]

Thanks so much for all your helpful tips 😊 Dane would you have any advice as to why I keep going wide on my reverse 🙈 I can straighten up perfectly but I’m always swinging wide 🤪

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

In that case I'd say that you need to turn a bit more, either that or you are turning too slow. All corners are different and you may need to steer quicker on shaper corners.

[@shannonburke4027]

thanks Dane super helpful videos. i have a question: how about overtaking a bus loading/unloading passengers. if the bus is not indicating right yet, shall i overtake if there is no cars coming from opposite lane?

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

You certainly could but only if safe

[@niamhkeeley2690]

would you be expected to overtake slow moving vehicles in your test, or only parked cars/cyclists etc?

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

It all depends on what you come up against but if safe and practical then you will be expected to overtake slower vehicles and parked cars etc...

[@niamhkeeley2690]

@@DaneTygheletsdrive okay thanks. i just wasn’t sure but i’m not sure what to expect, i’m used to overtaking parked cars or cyclists but i’ve never overlook a slow vehicle because i’ve never had the need. i’ll see how it goes. thanks dane!

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

When overtaking a slow vehicle make sure you don't focus on the vehicle you are overtaking, be aware of the oncoming traffic too.

Hard luck, what happened?

[@Adam65510]

@@DaneTygheletsdrive it was marks for “progress” turning right, left and changing lanes, (slowing down to fast on approach to the junction I think, and slightly to slow building up pace after taking the turn I think) I also got a few marks on “positioning” when turning right, left and stopping also a mark for “speed” the estate was a 50 zone and I was going 40, but I was told this is slightly to fast as their was cars parked on both sides

Hi Dane , Would you ever consider a revolut account for donations? I myself & my friends had to create a PayPal to donate. I’m not complaining or anything, just making a friendly suggestion. :) thanks for all your help

Yes that's a good idea, I tried setting up Revolut but I found it very complicated and frustrating.

[@hereshoping6992]

Im trying to keep 10km under whatever the speed limit is

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

If you do that in a test you will lose marks and potentially fail. Don't take it upon yourself to enact sweeping generalised rules because you need to judge each road individually based on the conditions you have to deal with. If I was a tester and I saw someone behaving in this way I'd fail them.

[@hereshoping6992]

@@DaneTygheletsdrive so if its 80 do 80 , my test is tomorrow 😄😄

[@DaneTygheletsdrive]

No. You're not listening to what I'm saying. As an instructor I advise and help people to judge each situation individually and stop looking for simple yes no answers. So I would encourage you to just focus on the individual road and make a judgement on speed based on how busy it is, how wide the road is and what kind of visibility you have. At the same time bear in mind the speed limit. If you do this instead of searching for some shortcut black and white answer then you will be a better driver.
