[@r.k.6865]

Your videos and your calm approach to the challenging driving situations are really help a lot. You know so well what the new drivers might be going through. That’s such a professional approach. You are not only just passing on the knowledge and experience of driving, but also you are making it so easy to learn by the tone of your voice and your smile. It’s not only a driving lesson, but also it is a therapy lesson for the newbies 😊. The videos of your channel are so great, they have helped me a lot, I can’t describe how grateful I am. Please keep up your good work!

[@82windows82]

Thank you so much! Videos where you change lanes and record the mirror at the same time are extremely helpful! Judging whether it is safe to change lanes by using the mirrors seems challenging. Please do more lane changing videos, both left and right side lane changing, normal city driving lane changing, highway lane changing, and merging with cameras pointing at the mirrors.

[@Zutobi_US]

We're grateful for your support and love having you as part of our community! We will definitely do more lane change videos! 🙂✌

I'm scared of freeway driving but now that I'm across the country from my family i have to learn how to do this if i wanna do road trips. One day I'll take a trip to Colorado but thats a few states from where I'll be living so I need to get better at freeway driving

[@petebusch9069]

So you have no idea what your doing huh. Number one thing to keep in mind is NEVER be the car blocking traffic ever. Go with the flow and stay out of the way of faster cars. Its just that easy.

[@alexmark99]

as always, Jacqueline's videos are so useful and help me feel less anxious about driving as a learner

[@cindykitty]

Thank you Jacqueline for your very helpful tutorial. You have such a sweet, beautiful and calming smile! I appreciate all the tips and detailed guidance, such as need to see both headlines of the car behind in the rear view mirror, or left mirror (and knowing the car is waiting for you to merge). Keeping a quick glimpse at the blind spot is also an important tip. I will follow you closely, Zutobi and Jacqueline!

[@kevingutierrez3416]

Great video! Drivers be aware that some highways in different states have even slower speed limits for off-ramps. Here in Los Angeles on the 110 highway there’s off’s ramps about 10 feet long with a posted 5 mph speed limit. Of course the walls of those off ramps have been kissed multiple times by cars 😅

[@edmondchege7381]

Those roads look splendid beautiful and smooth

Thanks for your comment! Keep practicing and stay safe out there!🙂✌

Those yellow MPH signs on corners is not the actual speed limit and is just an indicator of how sharp the corner is. Your speed should be set by your comfort and your comfort will increase as you learn to keep your eyes up looking far down the road.

[@beshairarshad2946]

Could you teach how to make corrections in parking either reverse or forward. How to make adjustments in correcting the car positioning between parking lines

[@Zutobi_US]

A video on making corrections in parking is already in the works and will be published soon. Stay tuned, and make sure to subscribe so you don't miss it!

[@imdestinylouise]

May i ask what's that thing stuck to your windshield

[@davehugstrees]

Good video. I would just add that many states have a law requiring you to stay in the right lane except to pass, and there can be legal penalties for not adhering to this guideline.

[@SimonxSmiley]

You should do some POV videos. That would be helpful

[@iamforthewin6825]

My main issue is when entering freeways with short merging space, and matching the speed quickly because I feel like it's hard to see blind spots

[@ikramullahazizi801]

Watching over the shoulders is the most tricky part. I fear that suddenly the car in front will slame a brake or something will happen. Cant take eye of the front. Whats the safest solution for it?

[@TSlick3618]

If you're merging/Yielding on the on ramp going 65-70 miles per hour and there's a line of cars next to you in the lane you're merging into, Do you slow slightly using the brake pedal or just ease of the gas to fit into a gap behind the cars?

[@Zutobi_US]

Thank's for your comment! When merging onto a highway at 65-70 miles per hour with a line of cars in the lane you're merging into, it's generally safer to ease off the gas pedal and attempt to find a gap behind the cars rather than using the brake pedal to slow down. Remember, safety is a top priority when merging onto a highway, so it's crucial to follow the flow of traffic and make your moves as predictable as possible to reduce the risk of accidents 🙂✌

[@TSlick3618]

Thank you Soo much. And Great video btw!!!

If you miss your exit, you must drive to the next exit. Never back up on a freeway to reach your exit

Why people fear to drive in high way?

[@Mr_Duck447]

I fear the people around me, there has never been a time I've been on the highway and I didn't see someone crashed, and people are more reckless on the highway

[@jordanbui1448]

Does Having a learning disability mean that you can’t learn how to drive safely?

[@Zutobi_US]

Absolutely not! Having a learning disability doesn't necessarily mean one can't learn to drive safely. Many people with learning disabilities successfully learn to drive by adapting teaching methods to suit their individual needs, using patient instructors, and finding techniques that work best for them. With the right support and approach, individuals with learning disabilities can become safe and proficient drivers.

[@petebusch9069]

Lane changing is not a team effort. Look for the gap and drive into it, don't ever expect the car you moving in front of to back off and give you room. This is the worst way to change lanes by far and is never needed, ever. This causes a huge amount of traffic and accidents. There is always a gap, if you don't think so your not looking very far up the road or waiting until the last second. The whole trick is to keep your eyes up and plan a few seconds ahead verses looking 50 feet in front of your car and waiting until the last second. If your not doing this your putting your focus or attention in the wrong place. Her method does nothing but cause traffic and is also considerably way more dangerous because your causing other cars to slow and will lead to rear end accidents.

[@mikeperry1620]

So sad when ya gotta see a video to learn how to drive. Critical thinking is becoming an ancient task in our society.

[@RinDewmelon]

Not everyone pops out learning how to drive. Learning prevents accidents

[@skycat5294]

You are wonderful driver
