I'm not sure why you're complaining at 2:18 . The driver of the other vehicle was on that side because of parked cars, you are supposed to look where you are going and give way to the road you are joining. Perhaps spend less time criticizing others' driving and examine your own first.
Mark McMarkface Haha. Those cars are queuing not parked. Nice comment. Perhaps spend less time criticising others’ driving and use your eyes first. Thanks for giving my a laugh this morning.
Ashley Neal Irrelevant, as a driving instructor you should know that you shouldn't assume your side of the road is clear. Would you have complained if it had been an emergency vehicle? Your holier than thou approach, especially regarding pedestrians is not a great example to your pupils. Back when I was an ADI I had it ingrained in me that walking was a right and driving a privilege. I recommend vitamin B12 to help you calm down a bit.
Mark...How can you be so thick ? I assume you can't drive, to think them cars were parked. How on earth did you ever pass your test? If you did legally.
You've misunderstood what I was saying, You said there's things he does that some might call him sad for, So I was saying he's sad for calling people sad on TH-cam. Not that you called anyone sad.
@ihave35cents someone has to stop real criminals, we need some police, unless you are offering to fight crime. your american i assume, so write to your local elected official about it and ask for less police.
@ihave35cents maybe that might be due to police presence. Hate the police as much as you want, your allowed to do it is your opinion but they still have some uses we need and secondly there are area's with to few police. don't get me wrong traffic cops are annoying to me to, but i have also seen them stop some real idiot drivers as well.
seems weird watching bad drivers an not hearing the drivers swear there guts out like i do on my videos .... great structured video and well commentated , very professional
We did some country driving yesterday in the wet.. I was doing an admirable 45mph on a nat speed limit road, A loonatic in a golf decided he wanted to do about 70 and overtook me baring in mind there was a sharp chicane shortly ahead. I have had BMWs beeping at me for no reason, Audis pulling out at last second infront of me, overtook on a 20mph road .. It's just unbelievable.
8:00 I'm a little confused, isn't this a bisided obstruction? It may differ in the UK, here the rules at bisided obstructions is the first to arrive goes first.
9:56 More like they where looking at the left filter ,saw it change to amber and,not realising its a left filter, moved off ,just before the left filter arrow turned green. Notice the car starts moving just BEFORE the bus does.
11:00 Seen this scenario a million times, where people turn at a junction and mistakenly think the red light applies to them. I think too many sets of lights at one junction can add confusion, rather than take it away.
Look at the cars turning right at 3:00 - the lights had been on red for 6 seconds and they still move forward and turn. Have you noticed that red light jumping is more common now than in previous years? If there isn't a camera on the lights then people just don't care.
Met182 Who is going to stop them? The police don’t have the resources to catch minor infractions like jumping red lights. Eventually they will hit something, hopefully just another vehicle, and not a pedestrian or cyclist.
can’t stand people who take a left turn from the right lane. about a year after i’d passed my test, i was on a 4 lane roundabout and i was going to one of the further exits, so i was in lane 3. the clever guy on the inside lane decided to pull a sharp left turn, take the first exit and crashed into me. drove off of course. very scary as a fairly unexperienced driver aged 18 on my own, on a road i’d never been on. if you’re in the wrong lane, go round the roundabout and then take your exit!
british roads seem so chaotic..... although it may be a product of a heavily populated city but in america i hardly ever see cars parked on the road, and when they do, the road is big enough for them to fit... and that one-way you mentioned honestly looked like it was a two-way because the way the curb connected to the left side of the road. ... driving in usa vs driving in uk is clearly 2 different dimensions
if u are talking about USA, USA is built for cars and have more parking places than in Europe. Yes, there might be some places in EU where there might be more parking, but still. In my country isn't built for millions of cars every day in the city where i live and the parking is awful here.
0:25 1 hand at 12 O'Clock...pulls stupid, unnecessary over take with big acceleration. The look on his face when he eventually gets it wrong in the future. Priceless. I hope he knows he doesn't have the talent. Might save his life (and somebody else's).
Maybe its all thats wrong on the roads today but at 2:21 why reverse back? I know I wouldn't have. By reversing back he will just pull off the same manoeuvre again.
He's on the wrong side of the road. The risk is unacceptable. If he had done that on a driving test the likely good of him carrying on any further is Zero and he would have failed there and then. But I'll now stand by for the "who drives like they did during their driving test" comment to again prove all that is wrong out there on the roads these days.
Yes its just my opinion. However here is a fact. My Step daughter failed her driving test 4 weeks ago for checking her mirror prior to the required emergency stop. I cant imagine that being impatient and passing a line of Patient drivers, on the wrong side of the road would have also brought anything other than an instant fail too. I can not imagine that Ashley Neal would ever instruct or expect a Learner driver to carry out such a flippant and risky manoeuvre as the van driver did. Also if you look at the road the van driver comes from its on a slight left hand bend, there is no way he can be sure that anything is likely to appear coming in the opposite direction(ignoring the junction he intends to turn right into). Hes just another Impatient road user. As are 99% of the clips that appear in all these videos on you tube.
@Lee Yates No he didn't . I thought it was a line of parked cars at first too but it's not it is moving (hah) traffic . So he is overtaking NOT passing parked cars, overtaking on a blind corner NAH!. Have seen (mostly Russian ) TH-cam videos of people sticking there nose right up to a car in the wrong lane like that, then when the car in the wrong lane reverses a bit to pull over. the original car pulls forward again, in the end they have to reverse all the way back to the start of the traffic, teaching them not to try and beat traffic by driving on the wrong side of the road.
2:18 Absolutely not saying that you're at fault, but I remember reading somewhere in the Highway Code that you must give way to overtaking vehicles as well. Is this true?
The scariest thing about all the red light jumpers is that if a blind person was using the spinning nodule to know when to cross they would never know they were in danger from a RLJ, or how young people now use the nodule to know when to cross whilst they're busy on their phones, they wouldn't necessarily look up to see the RLJ before crossing.
A question I have is when a bus is parked in a bus stop, then readies himself to pull out, some bus drivers just simply pull out forcing us to stop, others wait for it to be clear or to be let out. Does the bus have right of way to pull out or does the bus have to wait until it is safe to do so? (I'm pretty sure what the answer is but so many bus drivers just pull out regardless..). Also if a collision occurs, who is potentially at fault?
the bus which hit the railings are really poorly designed, the front wheels are way to close to the front of the bus making the turning circle a lot larger than any other bus. every one of those i've seen are full of dents. 😂😂😂
Grzegorz Goral if you look at most buses the front wheels are behind the driver which makes it easier to turn. plus with the front hang of the bus you can actually turn over the pavement without actually driving on it. it comes in handy for making sharp right turns from junctions unless there's a set of railings in the way lol
The further back the front wheels are the worse the front overhang is on a swing round, which is opposite to what you are saying. With wheels further back the front of the bus can pass over pavements where no railings obstruct this however you can hit pedestrians who are walking on the pavement without actually mounting it. Bus drivers should know these issues with their vehicle.
Watching your (very entertaing and informative) videos makes me think lots of people think red lights mean, 'oh go on then stop if you feel like it it would be a nice thing to do.'
I’m not sure I agree with you about the ambulance. Ok he could have waited but he has come through a pinch point where the kerb protrudes equally from both sides, hence no priority. They are not yet at the parked vehicles blocking their side of the road. It looks to me that you have stopped your pupil almost opposite those vehicles thus making the road narrower for them. Don’t you think stopping nearer to the pinch point would have been better? Or even get your pupil to adjust their speed to thread through the pinch point after the ambulance rather than stop? As I said at the beginning, with a little more forward planning the ambulance could have stopped at the pinch point as there were vehicles parked after it but was there first and had every right to go through first and pull up after to allow your pupil through second.
7:38 you can see as there is only one paramedic driving, the other must be in the back of the ambulance with a patient. Granted there are no blue lights on, but someone could still be seriously unwell. This isn't an impatient or ignorant range rover pushing their way through, it's a paramedic with a job to do. You should be teaching learners to move and stop for an ambulance. Just because there are no blue lights doesn't mean they're not working... As for the other drivers, carry on naming and shaming the idiots, they make a paramedics job even harder.
If you're saying they could be on a job, that's even more unprofessional to drive without "Blues" Are other drivers supposed to read minds? Do you think paramedics are beyond reproach? My learners are taught correctly th-cam.com/video/jsF4e0b5c0I/w-d-xo.html. They are dealing with people's lives so their standards should be top notch. They weren't, simple as that.
Unfortunately not every job warrants lights and sirens, it'd be far easier if we could use them for every job, yes. As your learner said 'she wasn't in a rush was she?' - paramedics are always in a rush, even on breaks. It's not about reading minds we are taught from a young age the importance of emergency services on the road, there will never be a time you will see an ambulance just cruising around. As you said, paramedics are dealing with people's lives, granted most other drivers on the road are on their way somewhere important but just a friendly reminder - for the sake of you being 10 seconds late to wherever you need to be, you could assist someone in need of hospital treatment to get there faster.
If you want priority over others you need lights or sirens. This Ambulance had neither and had your poor attitude that you think you can do what you like. You can't. Terribly unprofessional!!
I don't think I'm the one with the bad attitude or the unprofessional one here ha. I commented to inform people, as I said a 'friendly reminder'... It's common sense to move for lights and sirens however, most people don't realise if there is only one paramedic in the front then there will most likely be a patient on board. Your giving a driving lesson, they are taking someone to hospital, who should have priority in that setting? You seem to have some anger issues. I'm glad the person who taught me to drive was calm and collected, that's all I'm saying.
11:00 I thought that only happened round here......very common. I've had students nearly do it on lessons, they just see a red and stop, well they would have if I hadn't told them to keep going. It's only a red light if there is a stop line....
11:10 I once bumped the back of someone who did exactly the same thing. The lights went green, we pulled away and as she got round the corner with a completely empty road ahead of us she slammed the brakes on for the red light!!! Fortunately there was no damage to either car. Guy at the shop right next to the lights said he sees it a couple of times a month lol
the car that turns into Aintree hospital into the one way road is probably because it used to be that way in then they changed it. I think it shows never assume things wont have changed
I guess so. One would hope that newly painted lines might help. But if you are actually concentrating on driving and being aware of the whole situation (which includes observing) one should be able to deduce from how other drivers use the junction the correct way to use it. Just not got their brain switched on IMHO.
Had no idea it was legal to go the wrong way up the road like that, always thought it just meant you could overtake one or two cars. So what would happen if the instructor was already on the road too, not pulling out?
I spoke to my instructor about this and h said the van was still in the wrong because you can't see what's around the bend, it's just way too much of a distance to be "overtaking" everyone.
Wow the number of ppl who jump the red light!! In Oman there r cameras on every intersection (in Muscat at least) and if u jump the red light u go to jail. So it’s not uncommon to see someone slam their brakes cuz they realised it’s red and reverse back before the line.
The person who ran the red light in last video likely got a ticket since I’m sure there’s a traffic camera on the lamppost in the right lane. I know this since I’m sure 1 got me, but it was a case of bad timing from me since I was checking my speedometer for longer than needed to and missed the change from green to red. Mind you was only 1.3 seconds after it changed to red, lesson learned not to check speed for too long, it wasn’t that I was actually speeding I was well under the speed limit and was speeding up slightly.
It's a fish-eye camera. The learner stopped level with the parked car closest to the bollards and the ambulance doesn't really have space to go between the bollards and swerve into the gap between them and the that parked car. Unless they go right up to the car (ie touch it) their back end would still be blocking the bollards. Simply, the cars parked close enough to the bollards that the ambulance should have treated them as the same obstruction.
@@boring7823 Exactly. It’s not necessarily a “who has priority” issue there anyway, more of a practical one. If the ambulance had looked ahead a bit and let the learner go first both would have had a better time negotiating the road.
Is this in England? It's so weird seeing roads like this, I would be so confusing as I've been living in The Netherlands, the roads here are so different, how funny!
I see the roads up north are in just as bad a condition as the roads here in Suffolk. As much tax as UK residents pay, you'd think they could maintain the roads in better than third-world conditions.
KezzahBaby you know your going to have to go on dual carriages, motorways and huge roundabouts eventually? Its the double roundabouts and the triple ones that are scary. No pressure though
And when you do driving by book and you do your best in the driving test and you are so nervous the examiner fails you!! How those drivers took their licence and we can't pass a test while we do it by the book.We learners are more curfull then experience drivers which they are not drivers the are a joke
7.45. The car had stopped before the ambulance driver even had chance to pull in, obviously he had time to go over the speed bump, by the time he would have needed to stop you had already stopped and so he thanked you. He did nothing wrong.
Some of the shit I've seen in yours and other peoples' videos is bonkers but I was absolutely flabbergasted when I saw that shit about 6:56 that's a fuckin' public footpath hahaa bloody hell =P
The police aught to have someone employed to watch your videos all day for possible prosecutions. They could then give you commission on convictions, say 10%?
I'm not sure why you're complaining at 2:18 . The driver of the other vehicle was on that side because of parked cars, you are supposed to look where you are going and give way to the road you are joining. Perhaps spend less time criticizing others' driving and examine your own first.

Pedestrians? Where? When you were an ADI did you often misinterpret queue's as being parked? I'm still laughing
Mark McMarkface what an idiot you are. How can u think they were parked cars 😂 the other guy was in the wrong, plain and simple.
Mark...How can you be so thick ? I assume you can't drive, to think them cars were parked. How on earth did you ever pass your test? If you did legally.
I've realized that 75% of Lerner drivers and people who just passed drive better then people who have the license for years
at 9:00 the white car turning right is a Cactus W special edition, there's only 160 of them in the UK
We all make mistakes, but most of those clips are deliberate acts of stupidity.
lol that grey Citroen van BK62 VLY at 2:24 hasn't been taxed since May 2017.. (Yes, I'm procrastinating and checking plates on DVLA website)! xD
Weirdly enough its MOT'd and insured He just doesnt fancy paying his emissions taxes.
Kris Nicholson Like calling people sad on TH-cam?
You've misunderstood what I was saying, You said there's things he does that some might call him sad for,
So I was saying he's sad for calling people sad on TH-cam. Not that you called anyone sad.
No worries.
I'd have sat there and made them reverse.
I do love your understatements "That's a disgrace" brilliant!
The shortage of visible police traffic cars these days must lead to these bad drivers continuing to think they can get away with it all the time.
ihave35cents they still speed regardless of the police presence but yea some cops are money hungry
@ihave35cents you get good and bad cops, sadly the bad officers get the more expose and coverage on media and internet.
@ihave35cents it happens sadly, maybe you got a bad area for cops.
@ihave35cents someone has to stop real criminals, we need some police, unless you are offering to fight crime.
your american i assume, so write to your local elected official about it and ask for less police.
@ihave35cents maybe that might be due to police presence. Hate the police as much as you want, your allowed to do it is your opinion but they still have some uses we need and secondly there are area's with to few police.
don't get me wrong traffic cops are annoying to me to, but i have also seen them stop some real idiot drivers as well.
seems weird watching bad drivers an not hearing the drivers swear there guts out like i do on my videos .... great structured video and well commentated , very professional
Thanks for the great feedback 👍 Ashley
Well he is a professional driver, unlike you. LOL
i never claim to be a professional driver far from it
Yeah I know lol, I was joking. I thought the "LOL" would give it away.
thats why i didnt hurl abuse at ya ... lol
We did some country driving yesterday in the wet.. I was doing an admirable 45mph on a nat speed limit road, A loonatic in a golf decided he wanted to do about 70 and overtook me baring in mind there was a sharp chicane shortly ahead. I have had BMWs beeping at me for no reason, Audis pulling out at last second infront of me, overtook on a 20mph road .. It's just unbelievable.
8:00 I'm a little confused, isn't this a bisided obstruction? It may differ in the UK, here the rules at bisided obstructions is the first to arrive goes first.
9:56 They moved before the bus did. I think they saw the other light changing out the corner of their eye and thought it was theirs.
9:56 More like they where looking at the left filter ,saw it change to amber and,not realising its a left filter, moved off ,just before the left filter arrow turned green. Notice the car starts moving just BEFORE the bus does.
Agreed, it's a common mistake. I see it frequently. They reacted in plenty of time. & stopped again.
11:00 Seen this scenario a million times, where people turn at a junction and mistakenly think the red light applies to them.
I think too many sets of lights at one junction can add confusion, rather than take it away.
6:46 I'm wondering whether the black car was trying to escape blame for an accident as it's odd for the van to follow.
Look at the cars turning right at 3:00 - the lights had been on red for 6 seconds and they still move forward and turn.
Have you noticed that red light jumping is more common now than in previous years? If there isn't a camera on the lights then people just don't care.
Met182 Who is going to stop them? The police don’t have the resources to catch minor infractions like jumping red lights. Eventually they will hit something, hopefully just another vehicle, and not a pedestrian or cyclist.
Bryn Jones cameras on red lights would stop them and generate money from fines. Hitting another car isn't a "hopefully" type situation to me.

Reminds me of when I was with an instructor... 2.5 years since I got my license, but never stopped learning...

Sub'd and thanks for explaning what your showing us - its a pity other road user channels didn't do that. Props to the scousers.
I’m not sure I agree with you about the ambulance. Ok he could have waited but he has come through a pinch point where the kerb protrudes equally from both sides, hence no priority.

Nothing to do with the pinch point. Simply meeting traffic the parked cars on the opposite side.
7:38 you can see as there is only one paramedic driving, the other must be in the back of the ambulance with a patient. Granted there are no blue lights on, but someone could still be seriously unwell. This isn't an impatient or ignorant range rover pushing their way through, it's a paramedic with a job to do.

11:00 I thought that only happened round here......very common. I've had students nearly do it on lessons, they just see a red and stop, well they would have if I hadn't told them to keep going. It's only a red light if there is a stop line....
What are the purpose of the lights at 10:49 they were driven through?
pedestrians?
There's a new rule in the highway code, apparently it's ok to drive through traffic lights 'on red' if they have 'only just' turned to red !
Good quality cameras. What make and model are they?
All them drivers that have past a test and drive like that should be ashamed.
I've been on that road twice this year when you went past Anfield
11:10 I once bumped the back of someone who did exactly the same thing. The lights went green, we pulled away and as she got round the corner with a completely empty road ahead of us she slammed the brakes on for the red light!!!

9:12 that road seems badly designed. There's no traffic island to point you to where you're meant to be, but good to see you helped them out
I guess so. One would hope that newly painted lines might help. But if you are actually concentrating on driving and being aware of the whole situation (which includes observing) one should be able to deduce from how other drivers use the junction the correct way to use it. Just not got their brain switched on IMHO.
Instructor at fault there, no excuses. Should have intervened far earlier.
ashley mate where do you live? is there something in the water that makes people colour blind?
10:43 What went wrong here? I've watched a couple of times, and I missed it.
if you look straight ahead into the far distance, a few cars run the red lights which are straight down the road.
00:41, ouch. 02:15 why not let the pedestrian cross?
I will not let myself be bullied on the road! But an Ambulance may barge past me at any time
2:12 why did you let him through? He can reverse back up the line, he's on the wrong side of the road...
Had no idea it was legal to go the wrong way up the road like that, always thought it just meant you could overtake one or two cars. So what would happen if the instructor was already on the road too, not pulling out?
Lee Yates I'm interested to see if you think the van driver would pass a test driving like that.
I spoke to my instructor about this and h said the van was still in the wrong because you can't see what's around the bend, it's just way too much of a distance to be "overtaking" everyone.
Sid B you give way to the cars already on the main road whichever way they are going
Yes give way to them, but they shouldn't be doing it in the first place plain and simple.
11:00 scarily I see this on a daily basis around here.
Wow the number of ppl who jump the red light!! In Oman there r cameras on every intersection (in Muscat at least) and if u jump the red light u go to jail. So it’s not uncommon to see someone slam their brakes cuz they realised it’s red and reverse back before the line.
Ahhh Merseyside. What a wonderful place we live.
What an utter disgrace that red light jump from the Qashcow was at the end. Ones this bad warrant sending to the police. What a complete w*nk.
The person who ran the red light in last video likely got a ticket since I’m sure there’s a traffic camera on the lamppost in the right lane. I know this since I’m sure 1 got me, but it was a case of bad timing from me since I was checking my speedometer for longer than needed to and missed the change from green to red. Mind you was only 1.3 seconds after it changed to red, lesson learned not to check speed for too long, it wasn’t that I was actually speeding I was well under the speed limit and was speeding up slightly.
Regarding the ambulance driver, there was an obstruction on both sides. Furthermore, they got there first. You would have been in the wrong here.
It's a fish-eye camera. The learner stopped level with the parked car closest to the bollards and the ambulance doesn't really have space to go between the bollards and swerve into the gap between them and the that parked car. Unless they go right up to the car (ie touch it) their back end would still be blocking the bollards. Simply, the cars parked close enough to the bollards that the ambulance should have treated them as the same obstruction.
@@boring7823 Exactly. It’s not necessarily a “who has priority” issue there anyway, more of a practical one. If the ambulance had looked ahead a bit and let the learner go first both would have had a better time negotiating the road.
Is this in England? It's so weird seeing roads like this, I would be so confusing as I've been living in The Netherlands, the roads here are so different, how funny!
I see the roads up north are in just as bad a condition as the roads here in Suffolk. As much tax as UK residents pay, you'd think they could maintain the roads in better than third-world conditions.
So glad i live somewhere with no big roundabouts no dual carriageways no motor ways lol I’d of failed my test 😂 just passed on 14th! Delighted
KezzahBaby you know your going to have to go on dual carriages, motorways and huge roundabouts eventually?
Its the double roundabouts and the triple ones that are scary. No pressure though
Where are the police in your nation?! In USA or even here in Canada cops would be on your bumper in seconds after half the stuff these people do.
And when you do driving by book and you do your best in the driving test and you are so nervous the examiner fails you!! How those drivers took their licence and we can't pass a test while we do it by the book.We learners are more curfull then experience drivers which they are not drivers the are a joke
“Laughs in Bosnian”
7.45. The car had stopped before the ambulance driver even had chance to pull in, obviously he had time to go over the speed bump, by the time he would have needed to stop you had already stopped and so he thanked you. He did nothing wrong.
of course the dozy driving school car belonged to Chris Kelly lol
Some of the shit I've seen in yours and other peoples' videos is bonkers but I was absolutely flabbergasted when I saw that shit about 6:56 that's a fuckin' public footpath hahaa bloody hell =P
These are the people who cause accidents.
Your instruction is top class, mate. You really show up the morons, and teach the learners how to behave.
The police aught to have someone employed to watch your videos all day for possible prosecutions. They could then give you commission on convictions, say 10%?
11:25
at 2,20,,,did I miss something,you were at fault for not checking its clear left, ?
Your definitely missing something 😂
Ashley Neal I'l have another look
ah right,got ya ,,,at first I thought the row of cars were parked,and the van had already committed to passing
Use a bloody tissue!
“Overtaked” Liverpool grammar eh
I would have been less surprised at "overtookh"
