I Fort you had to check mirrors and blind spot first before, applying your indicator , 4.20 you put indicator on before checking blind spot on changing lanes.
Checking my blindspot before moving lanes, or a side way glance as it is officially called (as slightly different to a 'proper' blindspot check) has prevented me for crashing on several occasions as there were vehicles in my blindspot. Also official advice in the Highway Code says to do a sideways glances before moving lanes: See rule 133 www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/general-rules-techniques-and-advice-for-all-drivers-and-riders-103-to-158
@@UKDrivingTest a sideways glance is not blind spotting advising blind spotting when on the move is a dangerous instruction take responsibility for the instructions that you give and concede that saying blind spotting when driving is dangerous
@@thankyou1714 please reread my comment, it is officially called a sideways glance, but you are still looking into the blindspot area, just not fully. Also see the check I do on the video, these is more risk in NOT doing these checks, over 'risk' of doing them.
Thank you so much, this is very helpful 😊 When I go on a journey out of my own Norfolk county and know that I'm going to have to use a busy roundabout with many lanes, I always look it up on Google maps (satellite) first and make a note of what lane I will need to be in before I set out for my journey
You are just super!! Very easy to listen to and very thorough, I have listened to a number of your videos and all of your advice is very appreciated. I love that it is very often backed up with examples or reasons. Read a the comments below thank you kindly for confirming the sideways glance, we are all human . I was advised the same but I agree this is necessary and I have done this on my own personal driving for 20 years and has been extremely beneficial, also a difficult habit to break but a good one it seems :)
Good to hear the videos have helped. There does seem to be a lot of confusion around doing a sideways glance before changing lanes, but as long as it is just a glance then it is quite vital.

Two questions Is it ok & safe to change lane from middle to the left when on the left emerging lane & traffic joining ? Already on left lane emerging traffic lane , Can we go to the middle lane ?tnx
I just have to point this out. At 3:46 you say "speed limit remains the same at 50mph, as there has been no signs", however at 3:45 you go past a "start of motorway restrictions" sign, which implies the motorway speed limit unless co-occupied with a other speed limit. So surely the speed limit here for your vehicle is 70MPH? Then at 5:17 you say "70 MPH road", even though you haven't passed any road signs (except the blank AMI). Did you not see the sign, or are you unaware that the start of motorway restrictions implies 70MPH (for cars), since at 5:20 you kinda said that you can assume the speed limit to be 70 as it is a motorway. To be honest, the start of motorway restrictions sign is obscured by the AMI!
It is a good point regarding the speed limits. Generally I find even if the motorway restrictions have started there will also be a national speed limit sign, here there is not. Also not particularly helpful, but when you are coming down the motorway in the opposite direction there are clear signs saying 50mph. Also even more not helpful, that when merging onto the motorway a few moments later there are no speed limit signs, yet the speed limit is 70mph, due to motorway and no repeater signs. I suppose I used my local knowledge when making this video, I just recorded myself and did not do any editing, so again thanks for point this out. Generally some of the roads around here are unclear with speed limits as there have been various road works and regular changes of speed limits and road workers forgetting to take old signs down or forgetting to put new signs up.
@@UKDrivingTest In the traffic signs manual it does allow a NSL sign to be shown with the start of motorway regulation sign, however in practice normally this isn't done as it would be redundant, however the M23 spur is a likely candidate where it could benefit from getting one. In the regulations it's explicitly forbidden to have repeater signs showing the national or virtue speed limit unless shown with a speed camera symbol (which can only be used when there is either temp or perm enforcement on that road at that speed limit). During the Smart motorway conversion, the spur was missing its "end of motorway regulations" sign for over 2.5 years, even though I sent them many emails about it.
Good video really helps . One question about undertaking if your driving on lane 2 you just overtook from lane 1 and then return to lane 1 again but the cars on lane 2 is driving slow but lane 1 is clear should you at this point drop your speed lower than the cars on lane 2 ?
Highway code is quite clear, only over take on the left: - In slow moving traffic queues - when the other vehicle is turning right - on a one way system The circumstance you mention does not fall into any of those categories, plus, more importantly, there is still the risk involved, the vehicle in lane 2 could just suddenly return to lane 1 without effective observations as they are not expecting to be undertaken. So, no i would not overtake, but I would consider: - is there a lane 3 I can use to overtake? - how fast is the vehicle in lane 2 going? if only very slightly below speed limit then I would happily just stay in lane 1 at a distance so no to block other vehicle form undertaking the vehicle in lane 2, their choice. The next two options I would like to think a DVSA examiner would be happy with as they feel safe and using common sense imo, but to reassure myself I would also verbalise what I am doing and more importantly, why, if on test: - if vehicle in lane 2 is going a reasonable amount below the speed limit then stay behind them in lane 2 at a safe distance, then flash your headlights to warn them of your presence, see if they respond and move to lane 1, if they don't then return to lane 1 as above. - If the vehicle in lane 2 is going significantly below the speed limit AND you are going to be on the dual carriageway/motorway for a long time, at least another mile, then I would try all of the above first, and if all else fails very very cautiously pass them on the left. The DVSA are looking for drivers to assess and managing risk, imo the above process does this, so i would like to think a DVSA would accept it given the correct circumstances.
Are there any restrictions in the car you use for part 2 & 3 ADI test? i.e I have an automatic 4x4 with reversing camera - am i allowed to use this to pass the part 2 & 3 or would I have to rent a car thats manual with no reversing camera and with or without dual pedals? Thanks
Please advice Do we still need training after watching this comprehensive video? Can I book my part2 test without training? Also how many lessons need to get proper trained ?
Hi Thanks for the video. The instructor i am with is Audited and have long experience. But, i am a bit confised watching your video. According to my instructor even if i have to take 4th exit I should still stay in the normal dirving position in the furthust left lane unless the Lane discipline Board or road painting says so.. While in your video you moved to most right lane before merging into M23. Which one is right?
You should normally use the most left lane for your exit, unless you are overtaking. I assume you are talking about when i am merging on at the slip road? I am probably using the right-hand lane as I am overtaking. If you can give me a timestamp to the bit in the video and I can confirm for sure.
ok. So I am turning right, 2nd exit, M23 South, on approach to the roundabout you can use both the middle or right lane. As mentioned on the video i did not know the middle lane could be used initially due to late road markings, so i played it safe and used the right lane as i was turning right, but the time I know the middle lan could be used it would be too dangerous to move lanes due to be a last second thing. When on the slip road i stay in the right lane to overtake the van, as mentioned in the video, this is what the right lane is designed for. If the van was not there, or they were going faster, I would have returned to the left lane when safe. Your instructor has told you the correct things, normally keep in the left most lane for when you want to go. However they might have neglected to say you can use the right lane if you are overtaking or if it is not safe to return to the left lane. Please also note this video is aimed at experienced driver looking to become a driving instructor and pass their "Part 2" test NOT the learners test, as such doing more overtaking is expected of an experienced driver, but not a learner driver, so staying left is fine, as long as you are not stuck behind someone going REALLY slow, in this case you still need to overtake when safe.
Hello sir im a private hire taxi driver, my car is Toyota 2008 no cruise contro ,Can I take this car for adi part 2 test? Do I have to do any separate insurance or not?Thank you
Don't try to take shortcuts with your ADI training, 100% get training. Same when you do your part 3, be fully prepared, don't cut down on sessions, do as many as you need. The amount of people who are unsuccessful at becoming an ADI is very very high, either failing part 1, part 2 or part 3, typically due to poor preparation.
Hi, the question is - what advice should you give your pupils about turning right around to check blind spots while they’re driving ? The answer is : It’s unnecessary and potentially dangerous :) What are you doing ? You are turning right around to check blind spots while you are driving...It is not personal but nobody knows what is right durng the test :)
I think you need to check your highway code. See rule 267 www.gov.uk/guidance/the-highway-code/motorways-253-to-273 "take a quick sideways glance into the blind spot area to verify the position of a vehicle that may have disappeared from your view in the mirror" I am not doing a full blindspot check, I am doing a quick sideways glance which is needed, especially on a 3-lane dual carriageway / motorway due to larger risk of something being in the blindspot area.
@@UKDrivingTest the question is "what advice should you give your pupils about turning right around to check blind spots while they’re driving ?" and the correct answer is : It’s unnecessary and potentially dangerous"
Hi my cruise control has distanced control build into it , now am sitting my ADI test soon can I use the distance control or not ? Basically my car breaks it’s to keep a safe distance on curse control.
Sounds like you have adaptive cruise control (ACC), all perfectly fine on part 2. You can use any technology on DVSA test, the only exception is self driving / parking features (for obvious reasons). Of course make sure you don't over rely on the technology, so with ACC make sure the distance it is keeping is actually safe, and a MINIMUM of a 2 second gap in the dry (3 second gap better). Often ACC can be set to different distances.
I largely follow your progressive smooth defensive style ( and in a similar MK8 1.5 TDci Zetec Fiesta with Limit tho no Cruise )..... Where I fall flat is spiral and larger roundabouts, the paint wears off and rain covers the floor names and I can find myself in normal lane position but wrong position to track the roundabout around. Even using signs, as 6 lanes for 4 exits around our Mcr M60 ( Londons M25 ); I know to leave at wrong junction is ok but I worry 4 Dec on PT2 I'll fail as may get 1 or more wrong and leave at wrong exit safely following a wrong exit lane. Indeed after watching your video:th-cam.com/video/l5pSLg568l4/w-d-xo.html I can confirm our roads are not this clear and well marked out.
The roundabout on the video you linked to is a new one, hence why I made it, hence why the markings and signs are pretty clear. Regarding your part 2, and DVSA tests in general, the examiners job is to navigate you and keep you on route, so if something is unclear they should help you. At the end of the day they have time restraints to meet and if they are late back it messes up the rest of their day, so they will either give you the extra help to navigate when needed or if you go off route they will need to change the route to get you back in time. I have never had an issue with a candidate going off route and being penalised by it on a DVSA test.
@@UKDrivingTest thanks very much. Appreciate your response. Been watching quite a number your videos. Thanks again. I’m definitely hung up on roundabouts. I’ve a month to correct it and upping my commentated self talk drives to beyond two hours to rectify. PT2 4ths Dec. I do see learners even with slow measured consideration onto large roundabout find exit Lane comes up too quickly and have to go around 360 to exit again. Same same for me.
one more thing, I don't understand the rules, on the one hand, a person who is 21 years old and has had a driving licence for at least 3 years without any experience can teach anyone to drive even a 17 years old person (two kids in the car) and on the other hand a person with a professional driving licence more than 20 years without any accidents, penalty points and collisions has to pass 3 exams to become an instructor and earn money, where is the logic :)? It is about system, just open question...
1. As you say can be a supervising driver if you are 21 or over and held full licence for at least 3 years, true you could have never driven in those 3 years, but how would the DVSA be able to enforce it if there was a rule like "You must have driven at least 5,000 hours over those 3 years" 2. A supervising driver is not a teacher and is not being paid, their 'services' will only really be used by close family or friends, so rules much more relaxed. 3. An ADI is a teacher and being paid, their services can be used by members of the public, as such standards are much higher.
@@UKDrivingTest how do they check it :) rule for whom ? For DVSA and their piece of mind ? Everyone can say I did it :) they should change the rule completely or ADI or no one…
@@UKDrivingTest you know what I am talking about, no different between 21 or 35 without experience, rule must be changed if they really take care of safety on our roads...

@@UKDrivingTest the question is "what advice should you give your pupils about turning right around to check blind spots while they’re driving ?" and the correct answer is : It’s unnecessary and potentially dangerous"
Hi my cruise control has distanced control build into it , now am sitting my ADI test soon can I use the distance control or not ? Basically my car breaks it’s to keep a safe distance on curse control.
Sounds like you have adaptive cruise control (ACC), all perfectly fine on part 2.
You can use any technology on DVSA test, the only exception is self driving / parking features (for obvious reasons).
Of course make sure you don't over rely on the technology, so with ACC make sure the distance it is keeping is actually safe, and a MINIMUM of a 2 second gap in the dry (3 second gap better). Often ACC can be set to different distances.
@@UKDrivingTest brilliant thank you 🙏
I largely follow your progressive smooth defensive style ( and in a similar MK8 1.5 TDci Zetec Fiesta with Limit tho no Cruise )..... Where I fall flat is spiral and larger roundabouts, the paint wears off and rain covers the floor names and I can find myself in normal lane position but wrong position to track the roundabout around. Even using signs, as 6 lanes for 4 exits around our Mcr M60 ( Londons M25 ); I know to leave at wrong junction is ok but I worry 4 Dec on PT2 I'll fail as may get 1 or more wrong and leave at wrong exit safely following a wrong exit lane. Indeed after watching your video:th-cam.com/video/l5pSLg568l4/w-d-xo.html I can confirm our roads are not this clear and well marked out.
The roundabout on the video you linked to is a new one, hence why I made it, hence why the markings and signs are pretty clear.
Regarding your part 2, and DVSA tests in general, the examiners job is to navigate you and keep you on route, so if something is unclear they should help you. At the end of the day they have time restraints to meet and if they are late back it messes up the rest of their day, so they will either give you the extra help to navigate when needed or if you go off route they will need to change the route to get you back in time.
I have never had an issue with a candidate going off route and being penalised by it on a DVSA test.
@@UKDrivingTest thanks very much. Appreciate your response. Been watching quite a number your videos. Thanks again. I’m definitely hung up on roundabouts. I’ve a month to correct it and upping my commentated self talk drives to beyond two hours to rectify. PT2 4ths Dec. I do see learners even with slow measured consideration onto large roundabout find exit Lane comes up too quickly and have to go around 360 to exit again. Same same for me.
one more thing, I don't understand the rules, on the one hand, a person who is 21 years old and has had a driving licence for at least 3 years without any experience can teach anyone to drive even a 17 years old person (two kids in the car) and on the other hand a person with a professional driving licence more than 20 years without any accidents, penalty points and collisions has to pass 3 exams to become an instructor and earn money, where is the logic :)? It is about system, just open question...
1. As you say can be a supervising driver if you are 21 or over and held full licence for at least 3 years, true you could have never driven in those 3 years, but how would the DVSA be able to enforce it if there was a rule like "You must have driven at least 5,000 hours over those 3 years"
2. A supervising driver is not a teacher and is not being paid, their 'services' will only really be used by close family or friends, so rules much more relaxed.
3. An ADI is a teacher and being paid, their services can be used by members of the public, as such standards are much higher.
@@UKDrivingTest how do they check it :) rule for whom ? For DVSA and their piece of mind ? Everyone can say I did it :) they should change the rule completely or ADI or no one…
@@UKDrivingTest you know what I am talking about, no different between 21 or 35 without experience, rule must be changed if they really take care of safety on our roads...
