    I’ve been binge watching your videos, they’re super helpful. I’m currently studying for my written test. Driving has always been a fear in my life, so I’ve been avoiding it for a long time. I’m 29 and I’ve been giving myself pep talks because I really want to conquer that fear and really become independent. I’ve driven very very briefly but it wasn’t enough. So I’m hoping I’ll get my permit before the year ends. The more I watch your videos, the more excited and motivated I am!!!

    these are unusual (to me)l on-ramps with the traffic lights that make your car stop just before entering the accel. lane. That's be unwelcome in most cases, particularly if one is in a car (truck) with mediocre acceleration. Haven't seen these here in Buffalo NY, although I seem to recall some "traffic metering lights" on the on ramps in Phila that would only allow 1 or 2 cars on each green (the green cycledvery frequently)..however, these lights were further back from the "gore point", ie. not right before the acceleration lane. Good video, although I think some are needed showing merging in traffic that is near full capacity of the highway but still flowing near speed limit. IMO, that's the trickiest time to merge.

  • @proletariennenaturiste
    @proletariennenaturiste 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What about semi trucks coming out of weigh stations or rest stops with absurdly short ramps who even if you floor the gas will only be doing 20-30 by the end of the ramp?

  • @yakk13
    @yakk13 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    What if there are two cars in the lane you are merging to, and the first one is going too fast, so you try for going behind him, but that car won’t let you in either?

    • @Zutobi_US
      @Zutobi_US  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That sounds like a smart decision in a tricky situation. When merging, especially with short lanes, it's important to adjust speed to find a safe gap. Slowing down to let the semi-trailer pass and then merging behind it was a good call for safety. Always prioritize safety when merging! 👍🚗🚚

    Why would on-ramps have traffic lights? That just slows you down, especially in a large vehicle.

      I'm sorry to hear that you faced a challenging situation during your test. It's important to prioritize safety over speed. Practice merging on different types of roads to build your confidence. Remember, it's better to be cautious than rush and potentially cause an accident. Keep practicing, and you'll improve.

    9 timtes out of 10, i will see drivers merging first at city speed, THEN slowly accelerate to highway speed, all without signaling let alone checking if they have space

  • @proletariennenaturiste
    @proletariennenaturiste 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    A lot of people speed on freeway and go 10 or 20 above the limit, that's one thing that's concerning. Let's just say it may be legal to do 10 or 20 under the limit as long as you're above the minimum speed limit and weather conditions permit, but it's definitely not legal or safe to do 10-20 over.
