I just passed my test because I saw these videos and got in touch! This guy is an incredible driving instructor. I had been let down by another instructor at the last minute, and Michael really saved the day. He’s reliable, excellent at communicating, and also a lovely person! He helped me so much, making sure my driving was as safe as possible and that I felt confident for my test. Genuinely can’t recommend him highly enough! Wish I’d met him earlier.
Thank you so much for your kind comment, and it was great to hear you passed. I wish you many happy and safe miles ahead of you and I look forward to seeing you on the road soon. 😀👍
Thanks for advice. I've passed my test about month ago and also owner of Fiat 500. I have been driving it for like 2 weeks , but I can't park at all.After I passed I felt like suddenly I completely forgot about how to park. I'm not joking. I realized it in a very bad situation at Asda parking,since then I'm afraid to go anywhere, my husband needs to sit next to me in that case if I cannot do the parking.Does anybody struggle with the same problem?Husband say I really shouldn't be that bad because Fiat is so tiny car and very easy to park with but it's put my confident off and now I've started to make mistakes during my driving, like stalling at junctions, roundabouts, ect...
It’s important to remember that all cars have different turning points. Do you find that you turn to early or too late? Just for reassurance, I can guarantee you are not the only person that has struggled with this issue. So please don’t stress yourself out about it.
I have the 2014 fiat 500s. I cannot reverse bay park for the life of me in it. I find it so hard to find a reference point as idk where I’m supposed to be looking, or what lines up where? Hopefully this video will help!
Could you please do a video of how to 45° reverse bay park in your fiat please? Or tell me your reference point for turning 😭? I'm struggling in my first car, which is a lovely little fiat like yours!
My instructor says you can't lower mirror because examiners don't have time. You have to done any maneuver in 3 mins. I know she just threaten me so I can cancel my driving test and stay with her so she can grab more money 💰
I’ve been trying to do the technique where you line up the car 3 bays along but I don’t know if the 500 is too small or something because it never works and I never get in the bay.
Hi Grace, can you tell me where you are starting your turn from (i.e shoulder in line with 3rd line)? And where do you finish compared to the bay? Thanks
@@learntodrivetheeasyway hi! I’m going to try your technique of shoulder in line with the middle of the 2nd bay. I haven’t tried it yet. By the 2nd bay, does this simply mean the bay next to the one you want to park in? Or is it 2 bays along.
Hiya. It will be the next bay. So you’ll have your target bay, a blank bay, and then your turning bay so 2 bays along 😀👍. Which car are you using Grace?
@@Grace-oz5ic same car as mine. Good choice 👊. So yeah, your shoulder lining up with the middle of the 2nd bay should do the trick. If not, adjust your turning point to cater for your finishing position. So if your 30 cm late, turn 30 cm earlier and vice versa.

Hi Hina, what are you unsure of?

Good taste in cars 🤩.
I’ll try to sort something out this weekend if that’s ok.
@@learntodrivetheeasyway thankyou so much!

Neither of those are true. If in doubt, call the test centre and the examiners will normally be friendly enough to help.
Is there no reverse light on?
The reverse light is on the inside of the left light cluster. You’ll see the light turn off when I move from reverse to 1st gear.
