- Sometimes pedestrians and cyclist can act in a careles way which could cause you to misjudge a situation and fail your test. So in this video I am going to show you some examples of reckless behaviour on the part of cyclists and people so you can be aware of this and so you can prepare yourself for dealing with this challenge.

😂😂 Best of luck with your test, email me at danetyghe@gmail.com if you need any questions answered.
Thanks @@DaneTygheletsdrive for all the effort put into your videos, I passed yesterday my test! First and thank god last time 😂. Your chanel was fundamental in the process and I can't recomend enough to everybody I know who will be going through this.
Congratulations on passing your test and thanks for the support
Passed my test today thanks to binge watching your videos over the last couple weeks ! Thanks a million Dane
Congratulations on passing your test, a great achievement 🎊
Hi dane just wanted to thank you, I passed my test first time in Dublin yesterday and couldn't be happier, really don't think I could have done it without watching your videos. Have told all my friends who's tests are soon about your videos. Will be supporting you thru a donation. Thanks again !
That's great news, thanks for the support and congrats on your success 🎉🎉
Passed my test first time today. This guy is the truth !! Thanks so much Dane, donating now 👍🏼🏎
Thank you for your support and congrats on getting the test 👍
Passed my test first time on Thursday😁I have been watching your videos and they helped so much thank you 🥰
Great news! Congratulations on passing, delighted that you found the videos useful and informative.
Hi Dane, I passed my test first time a few weeks ago and I just want to thank you for making all these videos. You provide us with great and clear guidance on how we can pass our driving test. Thanks again for the amazing and consistent efforts!!!
You get what you give in this world. Glad to hear that you found the videos useful and informative and congratulations on passing your test 🎉🎉
Ah the good old days when you could see dislikes on TH-cam videos 😒
😅😅
Thanks for the videos Dane! They are very informative and helpful !
That's why they call me the Great Dane.
Passed my test first time in Donegal today, thanks for the all videos Dane they were so helpful!
Hope to visit Donegal one day! Congratulations on your success 😊
Where was Dane years ago when I learned to drive in 2013? Better late than never I suppose. Brilliant videos!
I uploaded my first video in 2012 but didn't really get serious until around 2016 😊
Dane, thanks to you my son passed today. Your videos are excellent!.. He will make a donation later. Thanks again so much 🙂
Well done to him, he's proved to be a very capable driver, thank you for the support.
Hi Dane, I just wanted to say I only started driving 3 months ago and was advised to look at video on your page on something I was struggling with and since then I’ve watched all you videos a couple of times over for months, your videos are so informative and there was something for everything I was unsure about or needed more information about. I passed my test yesterday first time and just wanted to say thank you to you. I will be supporting you thorough pay pal. Thank you again 😁
That's wonderful news, thanks for the support and well done on passing your test, you've proved to be a very good driver.
I’m finding it difficult to make the donation, I’ve been trying now the last few days and it’s not working .. ?? Any other way it can be done ?
What's the problem?
Amazing videos just passed my test yesterday thanks for all the tips 👍
My pleasure, well done on passing the test
Absolutely pissed. The mobility driver is there to have a laugh. Nothing more. Nothing less. He cares not he is insighting an incident.
Bizarre behaviour to say the least!
@@DaneTygheletsdrive Strange alright. Although I would say that it is an elderly gentleman whose main worries/focus was probably not obeying all the rules of the road when he was a young chap!
He probably doesn't even know them the poor aul divil.
Hi Dane , thank you for all the videos you have uploaded and for sharing your knowledge on all driving techniques. You have really helped me and changed my bad habits. I passed today in Finglas. With only three faults on grade 2 . Thanks again and I will show my appreciation by donating to you ,as you deserve it by taking your time in helping all of your subscribers..Take care .
Well done. Congratulations.
Michelle congratulations on your success and thanks for any support 👍
@@toolietools1316 thank you
@@DaneTygheletsdrive Your videos are very informative and easy to understand . Used your way of stopping in second gear and clutch control ,but watched all your videos on repeat the last month and really helped in my confidence. So thank you .And keep up your great work ..
Delighted to hear that you found the videos useful and informative and well done on passing, a great achievement!
This is by far the most educational video on this topic I have ever come across 😍. The seeming beckon at 6:08 is the only puzzle🤣
I can only guess that this cratur is a couple of fries short of a happy meal.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive check out the *drivers* beckon-style hand movement at that video time 6:08 😉
I might have beckoned to the beckoner!
@@DaneTygheletsdrive I will be answering your Paypal beckon with some euro going your way in the future so I beckon you back to keep that Paypal open
Thanks very much for the support, and nice use of puns 😂
Hi Dane, I passed for the first time watching all your videos religiously for a year to make sure I was driving safely and competently. Donation made and will definitely recommend you to all my friends :) keep up the videos!!
Thank you so much for your support -I'm very grateful. And I'll be following up with an email to you later. Congratulations on successfully getting your test 😊
Hi Dane, was wondering can you use the indicators when moving around potholes in the road?
Thanks
If moving out over the middle of the road yes
The quays in Dublin can be lethal for drug addicts crossing the road in front of oncoming traffic without even looking. As a pedestrian, I've seen that a few times were it caused many cars to break or swerve suddenly. My instructor even warned me about it when we drove down the quays.
Hazards come in many varieties!
I always looked at my flanks (the sides) when pulling off or before turning into a road. the cyclist might appear suddenly esp. kids
Good things to do
Hi Dane, great video as always!
I wanted to ask: is it legal to overtake a cyclist when there's a continuous white line but is safe to do so (no oncoming traffic)? Thanks so much!
Yes that's fine in order to drive in a practical way only if safe in order to maintain good progress.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive During the test, if the cyclist is very slow, can we overtake him by crossing continues white line or crossing hatchmark?
Yes that's OK once safe
Hi Dana, I hope you're well . When you overtake cyclists do we put the indicator on?
Also in theory the stop sign, you stop at the sign but during your practical test if the stop sign is not accompanied by a white line do you stop at the sign or where you think the line should be? Please advise, thank you
Good to indicate if crossing the white line or the middle of the road. Stop at the sign if no line.
Thanks a mill Dane! Appreciate the help
Stay safe
Can you overtake a cyclist on a continuous white line if he is going very slow and it’s safe to do so? Or must you wait for a broken white line?
You can yes if its safe, you need to be practical.
What's the adequate clearance for being stuck behind a cyclist with no ability to overtake?
Around a car length plus a bit, need to be close enough to make the overtaking more practical and easier.
Hi Dana having great stress panicking about theory questions are they as important as I’m making them out or am I overthinking it ?
Dane*
Passed mine yesterday and was the same as yourself. I thought alot more theory was involved. The examiner for me anyway, seemed to ask me questions that are commonly asked so I didnt have a bother answering them. I'd say touch up on road signs but again they seem to ask common enough ones. Don't stress about the theory too much because if your driving is spot on you won't have anything to worry about, although it makes a good impression on the examiner if you are able to answer every question he throws at you !
@@pausz8729 cheers appreciate that
As pausz said, it makes a good impression to get off to a good start but the theory is only a small part of the overall test.
Hi Dane, if a pedestrian steps off the pavement - NOT at a pedestrian crossing- but then waits there at the side of the street to cross, is a driver still obligated to stop for them so they can cross? (even if they are not in any kind zebra crossing and haven't continued to walk across the street)
Yes usually the driver must wait for the pedestrian to cross in that case.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive Thank you for your reply! So is not dangerous to allow the pedestrian to cross when they are not in a pedestrian crossing? Or is there just the general rule of once they are off the pavement cars have to stop for them no matter where they are (and even if they don't continue walking out into the street)? It just seems if a car stops in this case, it's putting the pedestrian in greater danger because without an appropriate crossing other cars/motorcycles/cyclists might not see them and try to go around the stopped car, possibly hitting the person.
There is no specific answer to these questions because it entirely depends on the situation and I'm certainly not going to be going into a hypothetical rabbit hole because we'd be here all day. What other cars do is up to them and you should not waste your time worrying about them. Just don't beckon the pedestrian out onto the road, let them make their own decision and if they want to walk out in front of a moving car then that's their choice, not yours.
Hi Dane, my test was cancelled there today it was meant to be tomorrow would you have any idea how long it would take to get a new date
Hard to say, you'll likely get priority so probably a few weeks. Let me know how you get on.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive that’s grand thanks👍
Best wishes
Hi Dane, how about a cyclist on the road when there’s a solid white line in the middle? I was once stuck behind one for about 10 minutes. My instructor then told me I could overtake, but I’d be crossing the solid white line then?
You need to be realistic and practical and stop applying a rigid interpretation of the rules of the road, you really need to watch this video
th-cam.com/video/1zJw4ZRtYyg/w-d-xo.html
I failed once 5min after my test started because of a pedestrian ... it is so frustrating
They are a law onto themselves.
Failed my first test earlier this year from a cyclist swerving out across into the middle of the road avoiding a parked car and I swerved myself to avoid hitting him. I was the only car driving on the road thank god but I could just sense from the tester from that point on that it was over for me. Heading in for my second shot at it tomorrow, hoping it's second time lucky haha
In that situation you needed to be aware of the possibility of the Cyclist doing that so you should have been alert to the cyclist and the parked car because they can make sudden movements.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive Yeah 100%, was my fault without doubt think the nerves had just gotten to me and wasn't expecting such a sudden swerve. Just passed today at last though, thanks for your videos Dane they've been a great help
You didn't hang around! Congratulations on your success 😊
To me it's insanity to cycle on the road full stop (think of the odds of an accident for a cyclist vs how many times he travels - practically guaranteed having an accident while extremely heavy vehicles are moving fast in your proximity). I used to always cycle on the footpath often, never had any issue (practically 0% risk for me or pedestrians), but granted I use common sense (and if something happened, sure, its crap, but car vs cyclist = death, while cyclist vs pedestrian = ouch, sorry about that{unless they are a madman on the footpaths - but that CAN BE SOLVED}). I think it's sad they 'have' to cycle on the road, cause I want to follow the rules, like to cycle, but there is no way you will see me cycle on a main road, unless I have to for a min or two for whatever reason (eg. paths blocked). Bear in mind, you may be a safe driver, but many are not. I'm not going to risk my life because you and a few others are good drivers. Now imagine those reckless (no common sense) cyclists on a road if forced to do so, or worse, driving. Bigger footpaths, loosen the laws and everyone just chill out. CCTV everywhere now if a cyclist were to be reckless or hit and run (is it really so hard for police to follow up, special licensees can be given to cyclists on footpaths too - and we'd all be a lot safer). Its not ideal but your not going to get ideal, all I know its almost impossible for me to have an accident on a bike on a foot path (especially a reasonably big one - forget about those retarded lanes too, how often do people walk in them, rules overload and 0 common sense), I think you're all mad. The one thing that would put me off driving is road cyclists, in my opinion they are insane and don't belong there - and ive cycled more than most. [Rant over]
Footpaths are for pedestrians not cyclists (unless the signs say they are shared)
Some cyclists are aware that there is a cycle lane yet still chose to ride on the road and slow down the traffic behind them. What’s the reason for that?
I know such behaviour can be frustrating but if they are overtaking or or turning right up ahead they might need to move out.
A lot of people on the road should be on the psych list.
Not untrue
As both a cyclist and pedestrian learning to drive, I can guarantee that we are the most dangerous things on the road. Drivers know what they're doing. The rest of us are reckless morons lol
Edit: If a cyclist is not on the road, they're not beholden to the rules of the road and they definitely don't care about them. They have a definite chance of suddenly deciding to use the road. It took me way too long to realise I was more of a factor of concern than a pedestrian because of how quickly I can move. I simply didn't give a shit.
The more protected cycle lanes we get the better. In the meantime we all just need to show a bit of cop on and respect.
Failed my test in March 2020 because some gobshite who was not watching where he was walking quickly crossed the road when I was doing reverse round a corner.
That's why you need to look behind you and not stare at your mirrors. But yes Pedestrians can be careless and unpredictable.
I think he was beaconing the right hand side car not you
Hi. That man in wheelchair 👨🦼 moved eventually?? I suppose he saw you were not budging! And you waved him on ?? That’s ok to do ??
I waved him on? When did I do that??? . I basically ignored him because he was acting special.
