You'd think the student would know the area though and would have studied all the roundabouts in detail. I least I did that so I wouldn't be flapping when it came to choosing the right lane.
@@colinjava8447 That is a very useful tip, I can't believe nobody ever (including my instructor) has not suggested that! However, even if I studied roundabouts in my area I believe I would still not consider that closed gate as an actual exit if I saw it closed and without any obvious markings. In fact, I had to go into comments to see what others think about it as I was still in a denial this gate was an exit number 1.
True. But the fail wasn't because they took the wrong exit. But because they swerved into the wrong lane. That is dangerous on a roundabout for yourself and others
But the 1st exit looks like an entrance which is not an exit , and that’s why the learner took the third exit as a second, if I were him that what I will do could someone please explain that 😢
@@KhadijaElomri-y3uif you miss your exit, you are fine, either leave at a safe exit or do a loop around and exit on the intended lane. Neither will result in a fault as it endangers no one
Hiya .. I would like to let you know that I passed the test with only 2 minor faults. I can’t believe it considering I’m not from UK 🇬🇧 and I have only been here for 2 years. I also want to thank you for your videos 🙂 watching them really helps me to pass the test 🎉
Hi , I had my test today and because of your videos I passed with 5 minors on my first try!!! You were the main reason why I passed. Please continue what you're doing, you are doing a national service with these videos. Thank you thank you!! My advice for anyone taking the test, please speak out any thoughts/actions thats on your mind. This will help you think things through, as well as help you focus.
Just passed my driving test today with 5 minor faults! Watching your videos alongside the knowledge I’ve learned from my instructor has really helped me out a lot!
I have learnt so much of what I did not know much of despite having my license for the past 11years. Love this channel. I have learnt how to do parallel parking of 2 car lengths and in tight spaces. I had always found other videos on this maneuver very confusing.
Its THE BEST video and the content taken was outstanding and we need to analyse when we fail. We need more videos on this topic as it really helps in the test. Thanks a bunch
The people standing around the cars at the test center parking are incredibly thoughtless. They know it's likely people reversing in are on a test, tet one of them walks into the space the driver is reversing into. Not that they are the cause of the fail but a little more consideration would be helpful.
Thank you for detailed videos.I passed my test today .My advice would be get familiar with local test routes so you will be confident.Always look out for Stop sign.Creep out for better view .You will do great.
Ok I have got my driving test tomorrow and after failing my first one a month ago, I’m absolutely scared. These videos are super helpful as they are in bury where I’m taking my second test. And without driving since my last test I’m basically going blind again so these videos are great!
I failed my test a few weeks ago because i did not look at my left mirror at i think a T Junction (Junction -Observation). Had four minors and drove so well
The first one shouldn’t be treated as an exit at all. It’s blocked. I think the examiner should call it the 2nd exit rather than 3rd. Because it clearly is, a 2nd exit by default.
brilliant 🤩. no slots for a bit so I’ll keep revising . I’m annoyed but I’ll get there eventually. so on roundabout gates 1st and , the 2nd is straight on ? I got confused . until you got a comment on it .
Hiya, i have my test very soon and was wondering if you are still allowed to tidy up reverse bay parking (provided it doesn’t go great) or are you not allowed to anymore? I have been told you’re not allowed to correct it as it’s considered starting again. is that true?
Yes, a tidy-up is fine - we have had people pass even after 3 tidy-ups!!! This video has a few tips for you: Ultimate Guide to Bay Parking th-cam.com/video/3G6eAgx8HRs/w-d-xo.html Good luck!
Hi can you explain whats the fault in fail 1 in your video? Is this that he tried more towards the left like he is taking tye first exit and then tried to move back towards the close to roundabout or what??? Or he failed because there is bit unexpected left exit with gate locked seems like some factory and next left is basically the second exit which looks like the first exit but question is sometimes these signs also miss leading, on ome roundabout the satnav says 3rd exit which was a no way road or one way from opposite side where as the the driver took the 4th exit which satnav indicated as a 3rd exit?
He entered the roundabout in the left lane with no signal, but then swerved right and took a different exit. This could surprise other traffic and cause danger, so a serious fault was given. We should plan ahead at roundabouts, to stop this happening!
How about if heading to the FIRST exit of a roundabout but it's shown 180° straight ahead on the road plate, 1st straight ahead, how to signal? Should keep signalling left before entering roundabout? Or only signal left halfway in the roundabout before exit?
When going straight ahead at a roundabout we should not indicate on approach, then signal once our exit is next. The number of the exit doesn’t matter!
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Have asked a few experienced drivers and they told me to signal left before approaching the roundabout in order to go to the first exit but straight ahead. Always treat any types of the first exit as left turning even though the first exit is at the 12 o'clock straight ahead direction. If the 12 o'clock exit is the only first exit then that's still a left turn.
Seems to be that people are blinded by their stress level on the test.. Look at it this way, who cares about £200-300 or how much does it cost to have a test, you ll get the money again and again, its not like you can buy something valuable with that money, you ll pass eventually, just relax and drive normally for the love of God..
🙈 I took too long reverse bay parking but the examiner gave me a minor.Finally I was inside the white lines lool.He was so frustrated with me but he didn’t fail me for that
We can sit in the back for the test if the driver wants us to, but we cannot challenge the test result in any way regardless of video recordings or not. The examiner’s decision is final.
Some people can be really good and just fold the first time they go for the exam. Looking at the time-lapses, there's some evidence of the candidate dealing with several hazardous road situations really well.
First exit is very misleading as it leads to a closed gate.
Yep. Also doesn't help the markings are all completely worn off.
Didn't notice the mistake first time watching it. :( Would have failed as well if that was me.
Exactly

that first failure is incredibly unfair, I'm pretty sure 90% of people would have taken the same exit as he did.

Not it's not. The satnav literally tells them where to turn and what exit to take

THANK YOU FOR THESE VIDEOS, I passed my exam last week, first time around with 2 minors. I adore you guys! Thank you!
Well done! 🚙👌🏼😃
Well done
Woman crossing looks so pissed 4:25 🤣🤣
Hi, I passed my test first attempt today without any fault . Thank you for your videos.
Great job! 🚙👍🏼😃
Well done
This driver is like me i will never pass im giving up 😢
1st exit is a bloody closed gate... really... i had to watch that many times and just wow...
Yes that confuses almost everyone - which is why the examiner gives more direction.
It's stupid how can you blame learner
Great video this is really helpful we need more videos like these🙌
Just passed my driving test today with 7minor faults, thank you so much indeed.
Glad it helped! Well done 🚙👌🏼😃
I failed my test a few weeks ago because i did not look at my left mirror at i think a T Junction (Junction -Observation). Had four minors and drove so well
You can get a serious fault for that? I think I did something similar on my test before signalling, missing one mirror, but only got a minor.
How was that the 3rd exit? Was that road with a gate the 1st exit?
Yes - as the sign showed. 👍🏼
The first one shouldn’t be treated as an exit at all. It’s blocked.
I think the examiner should call it the 2nd exit rather than 3rd.
Because it clearly is, a 2nd exit by default.
2:01 I'd get confused by those stupid hashed markings as well
Good info really appreciated 🙏
Can you advise roundabout special right turn 3rd-4th
I struggle when I need to take my left n exit
Thanks

We have a whole playlist about roundabouts!
Roundabouts
th-cam.com/play/PLzlPScQvpv6mLLj0U_zJbeM_lytdV3lk7.html
Fail 2 is funny cause there is a car parked on the zigzag line and double yellow.
I swear this lady is the same person who does voice overs for work training videos
Very useful
I am still struggling regarding Round about. Need to learn in appropriate manner to pass my test
Roundabouts take a lot of practice - here is our playlist: th-cam.com/play/PLzlPScQvpv6mLLj0U_zJbeM_lytdV3lk7.html 👍🏼
brilliant 🤩.
no slots for a bit so I’ll keep revising .
I’m annoyed but I’ll get there eventually.
so on roundabout gates 1st and , the 2nd is straight on ? I got confused . until you got a comment on it .
Yes that’s right, the gates were the first exit.
thanks so much have you stopped doing joint one’s?
How do you mean 'joint ones"?
@@AdvanceDrivingSchoolthe fun one’s .
We had great fun filming the ‘Mat v Ann’ videos but they didn’t get many views unfortunately - so won’t be making any more. 😞
Thanks - I didn't think you could record actual tests, seems like its just the audio?
We are allowed to film outside the car, but not inside or any audio.

Certainly was not ready for test lol
I get 2.90 seconds when I time the amber lights on the second fail, shouldn't it be 3 seconds?
2:08 wasn't it the 2nd exit he takes???
Consider the direction indicated on the sign (about 11 o’clock) and the direction he drove (about 3 o’clock)…..

We have just filmed another mock driving test - it should be ready for release in a few days! 👍🏼
😀👍
🙈 I took too long reverse bay parking but the examiner gave me a minor.Finally I was inside the white lines lool.He was so frustrated with me but he didn’t fail me for that
Lucky you !! Did u pass it? Congrats if you did 🎉
The first fault was unfair honestly
First clip looks completely fine as the 1st exit on the left looks like not an exit at all. Very confusing.
Look at the angle / direction of the roads on the sign - and compare with where he went….
Silly question. Are driving instructors allowed to sit on the real driving test and challenge an examiner result failure if video recorded? 😊
We can sit in the back for the test if the driver wants us to, but we cannot challenge the test result in any way regardless of video recordings or not. The examiner’s decision is final.
How many times can we correct the manoeuvre
As long as you do it safely you are normally allowed a couple of corrections. 👍🏼
Oh dear, it is obvious that this student isn't ready for their test, hopefully they will pass next time!
Some people can be really good and just fold the first time they go for the exam. Looking at the time-lapses, there's some evidence of the candidate dealing with several hazardous road situations really well.
It’s mainly people who go for the theory first and then go straight to a driving test always have lessons regardless of how long it will take
I fail today my second time😢 because i slightly went to on coming traffic and come back to line im so made at the examiner keep failing 😢😢
Sorry to hear that - better luck next time. 👍🏼
Hi
next month is my driving test but I feel nuvers.
Best of luck! 🤞🏼
Hello I always watched your video it’s very good but I failed twice now I’m very upset also I’m loosing my confidence 😢
You can do it! Keep practicing and good luck next time. 🤞🏼
the first is so silly
