    I just want to say thank you for the videos you put on here. I had a 2 month break without any driving lessons and only had a 3 hour lesson the day before my test (today),and during those 2 months I would watch all of your videos everyday and it felt like I was having a driving lesson. I just passed my driving test with only 2 minors and it all thanks to your videos and my driving instructor.

    In older cars coasting downhill(high speed and long time) had the chance to stall the engine when going into gear.
    Never happened to me, as I was taught to never do it, but my father did an accidental demonstration.
    Going downhill on the Highway at over 100 km per hour, when trying to go back into gear the car stalled and he had to start it again, which takes time during which you have very little control over the car.

    Steeps hills is by far a challenge my test this year in august is in Greenock scotland not had more than 50% pass rate in ten years it’s all up hill and brutal but luckily when I first started I did my lessons in fort William that’s close to Ben Nevis some of the biggest hills in the country there so starting on hills is like second nature but ironically my last test i failed was during school hours and got distracted silly enough so lost the bite and stalled the car so got a serious mark down for moving off

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Before changing gears uphill, we go a little faster than normal. This gives the car extra momentum to prevent the car losing too much speed during the gear change. This video may help:

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      In the UK we have to:
      1: Apply for a provisional driving licence
      2: Pass the Theory Test
      3: Pass the Practical Driving Test
      Both tests are challenging for a new driver, but this ensures a reasonable minimum standard of driving before new drivers can drive on their own.

    before steep downhill i brake and lower the gear and go slow is that good whether its motorcycle, car. But my friend told use brake no need to lower gear rely on brake . Which is correct.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That depends on how steep the hill is - for steeper hills we would select a lower gear to increase engine braking as you suggest. However for a more gentle hill we wouldn’t bother as the brakes should be fine. 👍🏼

    Hey l advanced driving school I remember commenting months ago just before august but I failed my driving test for the 6th time can you help on a steep gradient that would even be painful to walk how many revs do I need to make sure I’m not gonna take off

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      That would depend on the car. However about 1500-2000 rpm is usually enough - so long as the driver is careful to engage the right amount of clutch bite gently. It’s usually too much clutch that causes the stall, rather than too little revs. Just go somewhere steep and practice 👍🏼
