- This is Alba, she’s an experienced driver with a full licence in Usa as well as other countries.
She has her UK practical driving test in a weeks time, she’s never done lessons with an instructor. She wanted to get an idea of what’s required from her when it comes to the driving test.
She’s generally a really good driver but made a few errors in judgement.
She wanted to record a mock test so she can improve some parts of her drive.

This video is filmed during a driving lesson. It is filmed for educational purposes.
Throughout the video there are highlights to show how you should be driving safely.
The highlights in GREEN are what you should be doing.
The highlights in AMBER are hazards/Advisory faults
The highlights in RED are serious faults in a test or when I have had to intervene and tell Alba to slow down or to stop
I hope this video will be useful! :)

Passing your test is only a small part, you keep learning and learning throughout your driving career.
This is sooo true. I can't agree more. Things actually start making more sense when your drive by yourself
I have an unnecessary fear of joining slip roads, my mind just goes blank when assessing if it’s safe to join or not. Really need to work on my confidence! Alba seems like a confident driver, she’ll pass easily 😊
Always try and get upto the speed of the road
Use lower gears to speed up quicker!
Also lean forward towards the steering wheel when looking in the right mirror to join :)
To join a main road at a slip road you need to fit into a space. The spaces travel as fast as the vehicles. If you are driving at the same speed it is easy to fit into a space even relatively smaller spaces if you can match the speed and align with a space. Drivers will let you in if it is feasible even if they need to slow down a few miles per hour. Joining a fast dual carriageway at 30/40 mph where the flow is at 60/70 is going to be problematic even dangerous. If traffic is flowing at 60/70 can you see how much harder it is to fit in from stopped?
That’s me as well, I dread the slip roads, everything in the mirror seems really fast- too much for my brain lol
@@alexahart7390 You cannot tell the speed of vehicles by looking in the mirror once for a short time. You need to look twice spaced apart or stare at the mirror for a long time to assess speed of vehicles. Both these are not a feasible way of assessment for your joining needs. So firstly factor in what speed limit is the dual carriageway? Then think about speeding up with that in mind. Then the first vehicle to shoot past you as you come up is about flow speed. So you need to be thinking of accelerating up to that speed and the next vehicle will generally be going as fast as the one that shot past. If you can achieve the sort of speed the first vehicles passed at you will much more easily fit in. Other factors that may help two lanes but only one has vehicles in it. They have the option to move over to lane 2 as you join but you have confidence of knowing that but will accelerate so they do not have to change course. The next vehicle is a lorry or other slow vehicle the space you are joining in is probably enlarging but you still speed up to general flow speed..
@@keith6400 that’s really helpful, thanks Keith 👍🏻👌🏻
Passed first time yesterday with 3 minors, these videos were such a great help. Thank you!
😁 really happy to hear that :) keep driving safe
took my test this morning and passed with 3 minors - Examiner said he knew I knew about 2 of them at least as I said out loud I'd just made a minor lol - I talked through my actions the entire test and it's videos like yours that have really helped - the examiner said it was a really nice drive.
So thanks, you are a wonderful instructor and your videos are a huge help :)
Congrats :) that’s really good to hear
I always feel an ongoing talk through is the best way of keeping yourself alert
So you don’t miss anything out :)
Even though I’ve had my license for years, I love these videos so much! Thank you
😊 you’re welcome
This looked like a nightmare test 🤣 those roads were brutal but definitely necessary when learning because there's not many roads like this at all where I'm at so 8 years after passing my test I'll avoid roads like this at all costs!
Thanks for all the videos. Very helpful, helped my pass my driving test first time with 5 minors
Aww that’s really good to hear 😊 congrats!
Passed my test today. Following you from previous channel and come here .
Huge thank you for your hard work .your amazing professional instructor ......
Good luck
Congrats that’s really good! :)
Thank you for your kind words and continued support 😊
I’ve been driving for 6 years but I still watch these videos
you should expect every "experienced driver" to fail. 95% of "experienced drivers" will fail if they go into a new driving test because after a person starts driving for several years after getting their license, they just start to care less and less about road rules and driving in general therefore do things they shouldn't be doing.
95% of drivers are probably unaware the highway code has changed this year, probably several times since they started driving. What is really perverse is that I get tested every six months to a different set of standards that would definitely fail me a regular driving test :)
Been watching your videos and managed to pass yesterday (somehow) with only two minors. I have to admit, stuff like this is very helpful! Keep doing what you do. 👍🏻
EDIT: First time pass as well, thankfully. 😅
Congrats that’s really good to hear :)
Your videos are honestly helping me so much! You’re also such a calm, informative instructor. I realise you must be extremely busy but could I email to see if you have any mock tests available? :) x
Yes sure you can email
I am trying to reply as best as I can
Thank you for your kind words 😊
she's changing a gear smoothly 😍😍
Hi! Thanks for sharing your video's it help me a lot to understand and familiarize the rules in traffic and main road. I'm always watching your videos. I am autocad detailer here in saudi and i am driving here a manual car. i am looking forward that someday my family and i will be there soon. :)
HAHA the tapping the feet on the peddled @25:50
I don't know why I enjoy these videos so much 😄...I've been driving for 7 years now
🤣🤣 😆
Great video & well documented as well :)
Thank you kindly! :)
I have my test coming up and find your comments throughout the videos very helpful. Thank you 😊
Good luck :)
Love your videos 😀😀
Alba, good smoothed drive, making progress, you will get there, and win the price. keep at it. You, have got a good instructor , you in good hand.💜
Thank you for helpful videos
Another helpful vid🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate it :)
Its amazing how different test driving is to real driving
I really enjoy your videos. Your explanations are well explained and in plain English, which I like. Please continue with your fantastic contents. Thank you.
😊
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching! :)
It’s really helpful
Alba, Good smooth driving, as an experience driver from the USA. She, began to get use of driving on the right hand side, to USA left hand. Although, that is not an issue, she would be ok. Aman, professional instructor, to explaining and to direct her.💜
That slip road looks like a challenging one for even an experienced driver
It is a little tricky but it looks that way due to the camera angle
Some slip roads are so short they're dangerous. Idk why they couldn't make it a bit longer
@@Undisputed_King yes there is one near me and sometimes you have no choice but to stop as it's so short and especially if its heavy traffic as well!
At 23:21, am I right in understanding that if you're already in that "right turn lane" (but before the Keep Clear), and the lights turn red, you're supposed to keep going? Or are you allowed to wait there at all? Would it have been a serious fault if the light had turned red before she entered the Keep Clear?
It's a bit ambiguous to me because there's space before the Keep Clear, but it's also in the middle of the crossing so it sounds wrong to wait there
14:08 -No, i must say it is important to check both sides even if one way, for the fact that there could be someone not obeying the one way rule ether on purpose or by mistake, Scooters, motorbikes and cycles could come up with very little notice. To discourage someone from taking caution is not a good idea and could lead to a preventable collision. always do your best to expect the unexpected, it could save a life
Exactly, at least have a quick check just to see what’s happening on that side
Alba, nice smoothed drive, knowing what to do, should be alright. She been there before, an experience driver, holding a full licence in US as other countries. Her UK practical driving test in a weeks time. She's in good hand, hope she get through with her practical driving test. All the best.💜
i think Alba can definitely pass, she needs to practice the going into skip roads with speed 6:00
It was good you helped her in 8:21 time
she needs to not take risks for example
10:32 it was good you told her about this
It was a bad mistake to do on a test
12:33 it was a good reminder for everyone that you mention such as zebra crossing
It was definitely tricky for any learner on a test
Yea she should have seen the one way road sign at 14:16
Many learners can be hesitant such as 16:28
It was good she slowed down in 17:47
26:21 that was a bad mistake, i don’t think she knew
28:21 yea it was good the motorbike let her, i don’t think she expected this and it is a reason she forget to check right blind spot
29:36 yea it was a little bit of hesitation from her in round about
31:39 i think she was a little hesitant because of the cyclist about if she should go or not
It wasn’t ideal for someone to horn their car though at her
32:44 yea she needs to remember to check blind spots in her test
39:24 yes true that car did go straight which can confuse anyone
Good luck to her on her driving test
Hopefully she does pass
It was a good drive, i have my test early next month. 😊
Nicely summed up :)
This will be helpful to everyone
@@ClearviewDriving yea i was writing notes during this mock test.
Thank you for the video
@@balham5606 do you offer driving lessons 😂
27:16 I saw that a new rule on the highway code is that when the driver is turning and there is someone about to cross, the pedestrian has priority so she should have stopped to let the pedestrian cross
Hey I will look into that, but when it comes to pedestrians
They have priority at zebra crossings or if they are already in the road.
When approaching left and right turns
If there is someone waiting to cross you do not need to wait as this will affect the traffic behind you.
Only give way if it’s safe to do so.
I start watching your videos and become your fan. You are making really helpful videos. my test is booked on coming Tuesday at uxbridge plz give me some advice.
Good luck, just treat it like a normal driving lesson and drive safe
Don’t be afraid of asking the examiner if you’re unsure of something and stay relaxed :)
Hahaha 25:40, she's moving her legs to the beat of the indicator :D found that funny.
What if there is a zebra crossing with the batteries in middle should you go if they don’t reach the middle yet or wait?
It’s your eyes 🤣🤣🤣 you can see exactly what you’re thinking in your eyes 🤣🤣🤣
😂🤣
i never understand beeping off a learner car
These busy high street roads are easy for me, it’s motorways I really struggled on when I first passed. Everyone says they are easy but I found them to be very dangerous and confusing with other road users doing crazy speeds and it’s very easy to be in the wrong lane to miss your exit or take a wrong exit.
You never stop learning to drive. I pass my theory test, but fail my Practical test the second time, the reason for this is lack of confident, hope to grow in confident and pass practical test the third time lucky.
i pass my driving test yesterday with 1 minor, be pro active while driving :)
Well done :) that’s really good!
Even as a cyclist I never have problems joining a dual carriageway with a 70 mph speed limit via a slip road... I just keep on going slowly till there is a gap.
28:40 My driving instructor told me that to never move off in these situations even if the road user is letting you through because you don't have priority and you shouldn't trust them. Can you please clarify this for me as my test is in a few weeks.
i watch these and i don't even live in the uk. while we also drive on the left hand side here in australia the road signs seem a bit complex in the uk or perhaps it's because you're driving around the busy city area.
It’s just the city is complex, most places in the uk are chill
"This is a slip road btw O_O" idk about US, but in my country you have to stop and let cars pass, I would've stopped too.
What if it was a short slip road to a dual carriageway and it has very busy traffic? Can you stop on the slip road in this circumstance?
Yes you can stop at small slip roads
You would stop on the entry and wait for a big gap to get upto the speed of the road
But you would only do this if it’s a very small slip road and stopping is necessary
If there’s a giveaway sign then just stop if there’s busy traffic
I had lessons in a car which had hand break and I never stall the car from my first lesson, now I got a car which has electronic parking break...I have a fear of rolling back so I stall the car few times...what is the best way to move off safely in an epb car without stalling???
Learn in a car that doesn’t have one/find a new instructor
The biting point is different in every car so it may just be that you’re not used to the biting point in the new car.
For moving off from stationary
Do what you would normally
Press the accelerator 1.5rpm and find the biting point and then turn the handbrake off and you shouldn’t stall
Try this on flat surface a few times to get used to the biting point
Hope that helps :)
If there's an electronic handbrake there will almost certainly be a "hill hold" or anti roll-back function. Check the vehicle manual or ask the manufacturer's main dealers to be sure. It should automatically release once you have applied enough power to stop you rolling back.
Most new cars have a hold for around 2 seconds so they don't roll back straight away, so that's always very helpful.
In this car if you squeeze the brakes once you're stationery it applies a hold (similar to having the parking brake on)
To move off simply press the accelerator(the car will hold until the clutch comes up) and then bring the clutch up and it doesn't roll back. most my student don't use this but its anther option :)
@@ClearviewDriving thanks for the reply, I will try it...I just need to be fast with the paddles I guess...lol
Why is she not doing the 5 or 6 points check before moving off?
She’s an experienced drivers
As long as you check towards the road, it’s still considered a safe move off
The design of the turn with the pedestrian crossing on to the one way street is horrible, even for an experienced driver, with the cycle lane there is so many hazards to be looking at
9.38ish, she cut the corner of a bus stop to get into left lane, as this is a bus stop which was on bus lane wouldn’t that be a fault?
Well then white blocks on a slip road are give way making so u do have to stop if u can't move on to the road
Many drivers cross their arms during the mock tests even though it's a minor fault in the test
Hey it’s not a minor fault, it’s a habit you don’t want to get into.
You would only get marked down for steering if you over/under steer or you cross your hands and lose control over the wheel while crossing.
Hope that helps :)
Hammersmith area.
I wish you were in Birmingham. Great work!
Thank you :)
Hi I wanted to ask you. Is it ok to overtake on dual carriageway during test. If one vehicle before us is too slow.
Hey yes if you’re on a driving test and the vehicle ahead of you is driving slower you should overtake when it’s safe to
If they are driving 10/15mph under the speed limit then it’s necessary to overtake
5:28
🥴🥴😵😵😟😟🙁🙁☹☹😕😕😲😲😯😯😮😮☹😖😖😣😣😧😧🥺🥺😓😓😞😞😩😩
Interesting video. I train and examine drivers that are both already experienced drivers, and have normally completed and passed some form of advanced driving course, and figured it would be interesting to see what constitutes "normal" standards for a normal driving test these days. I am somewhat dismayed to say the least. As a technical point, I do wonder how long your student has been driving solo in the UK. The law permits driving on her US license for 6 months, or until she is granted a UK provisional, whichever is sooner. So in theory she should have been running around with L plates, supervising driver etc for a while now. It is a point that catches a lot of foreign residents out, that they cannot drive indefinitely on their native licence, and any UK licence they have takes precedence.
Anyways, for the fun of it, my critique.....
And a fault before even moving off. Great start :)
1:51 Hand position on the wheel Pretty much constant whilst steering throught the journey.
3:20 Repeat of moving off, car in neutral with no brakes applied.
6:15 It really does worry me the number of people who trundle down motorway sliproads at 40mph. 55 is a great speed for motorway slip roads in flowing traffic as larger vehicles have limiters set between 50 & 60, so not much adjustment needed to slip out into a suitable gap.
14;23 one way perhaps, but always those pesky suicyclists to consider so a decent look left is not a bad idea.
15:27 Again that moving off. Gear, bite point, release handbrake! No wonder driving standards seem to be slipping if this method of moving off is considered normal and acceptable.
15:45 Up a gear! Quieter, more economical, more mechanical sympathy. Although I am aware some teach lower gear for better speed control.
20;28 handbrake neutral when stationary, all-round observations for people in wrong lane or two-wheelers. I would also mark an advisory to pull further forward once in the junction, but to remain conscious of the motorcycle.
21:31 Advise block change to 5th
22:24 Check right for jumpers, especially suicyclists, or me coming with blue lights on!
24:08 New highway code suggests yielding to pedestrian
24:32 and a minute later. Handbrake Neutral when stationary more than momentarily. Especially with those jiggly (strained?) legs and feet.
27:56 A more central position when clear for opening doors and road cushions
28:27 That move off again. Should have continued putting on handbrake until clear to move
29:11 One for when "making progress", not advisable to change gear during an accelerating turn, so doesn't really apply during normal driving, but still a consideration when roads are slippery
29:24 Up a gear
30:29 Gears
31:06 A pair of close passes under new rules. 1.5m is almost a car width, and I have taught/required such a gap on a clear road for many many years.
32:00 that second stall on moving off makes me think more of those legs & feet on brake and clutch. Handbrake neutral is not only safer, it removes a lot of physical effort from driving, especially in dense/stop-start traffic.
32:21 In neutral, no footbrake, hand on the handbrake but does not engage it?
34;19 At long last, a handbrake :)
Guess my biggest point would be the lack of control when stationary, surely that is not acceptable in a regular test? It certainly was not when I took my test.
Great analysis Steve, would love to go out with a more advanced driver and get all the tips
12:20 the what line? I don't understand what says that we don't have priority 😭 Where are the signs? I'm very confused
hey another great video, At 28:44 , wouldn't she have blocked traffic in the opposite direction if she moved forward without going fully into that left lane? Also if there is a green filter light, you don't stop for people on crossings right just as on 23:23 ?
Hey at 28:44 there is a pedestrians crossing on the right so the traffic is at a red light, which is why the van driver was waiting and therefore signalling for Alba to move in as he’s waiting regardless.
At 23:23 as the lights. When the filter arrow comes on we turn straight away as we are in the middle of the junction so need to clear it as the lights change.
We would only need to stop for those pedestrians if they are already crossing the road. Or if there was a stop line with a red light there (they wouldn’t put pedestrians crossing lights at that point. They are usually located around 10 metres into the road so at least 2 cars can get out the junction safely
Oh okay so if there was no gap in front of the van, the driver shouldn’t have entered into the road but as there was a gap, she should have moved into the road?
@@techsupport8412 she could have moved in either way
As the traffic on the right was waiting at a red light
So once you’re half out in the new road, as the lights would go green. Traffic on both sides would move off so the van would have given way regardless
Hope that helps :)
If it's a slip road where you have reduced visibility and can't see the traffic until you're right at the end of the slip road, it is alright to stop then?
Hey yes if its a very small slip road and you cannot see then you would just stop and wait. use the space ahead of you as a run up to gets me speed when you find the right gap.
There would usually just be a giveway line if that was the case :)
hope this helps
Do you signal left on slip lanes then signal right before you merge? Or do you keep left signal the whole time.
Signal left as you drive to the slip road and signal right as you merge.
How she is moving off with good observations?! Doesn't check any blind spot or the left mirror?!
As long as you’re moving of safely without affecting anyone
You don’t always need to have done a 6 point check
She’s always checking the road ahead, behind, right mirror and right blind spot so that’s safe
The windows in this car are really big so she’s not had to turn around fully to check her right blind spot as she can see it well
@@ClearviewDriving I was always told to do a full check when moving off from stationary. But anyway I passed my test last Saturday and your vidoes have been super helpful!
@@joeyleung23 yes whenever I teach new drivers I would always tell them
To do a 6 point check looking all around from left to right to move into the road
But as long as you move off safely checking towards the right is sufficient
@@joeyleung23 congrats on the pass :)
I wanna take your mock test on Indian roads 😄
What shoes are you wearing
amazing video, may i know where the narrow slip road is located?
Hey it’s as you join the a4 from the fly over on hogarth roundabout (just before Hammersmith in London)
yea in America it’s so different
Another great video as usual 👍
Just out of curiosity, does anyone actually hear what the bloke at 24:49 was saying? 😂
And great synchronised leg/pen bopping at 25:25
That left mirror should only be used for parking, it has no other purpose..
Those scooter drivers in London are a nightmare and don't know how to use roads properly 😒
They are the worst, but you have got to be so careful with them as they literally go through the smallest gaps 😩
@22:34, she made a blind spot check before changing lane, is that necessary?
Hey checking the blindspot is not necessary as long as you check your mirrors properly and don’t miss anything
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You may have to stop on a slip road. Thats why its there you should be able to slip in but you cannot always.
In some extreme situations yes but there should be enough length for you to merge without issue. I have been involved in an accident where someone was stopped at the end of a slip road. I was forced to stop and then got hit as the driver behind me was checking mirrors to merge and didn’t have time to react to stop. Obviously stuff goes wrong sometimes but stopping on slip roads is a serious fault.
Why are some parked cars facing the opposite way? Makes it hard to move out if you're heading the opposite way you're parked unless you plan to head straight, but this leads to conflicts and a dangerous way of doing so. Please educate me on this, I really concerned about it.
Hey you’re not suppose to park facing traffic. But that’s mainly for roads above 30mph
But it’s very common now in residential roads.
In the practical driving test they have recently introduced parking on the right hand side of the rosd and reversing for 2 car lengths and then moving off.
It is much harder to move off from that side, as you cannot see the road ahead.
@@ClearviewDriving My thoughts exactly being harder to move out. Makes sense with the 30mph but really no common sense at all, crazy times ahead..
How many points do you get for stopping on a slip road?
1 serious fault
38:54 Aman jumpscare
I am a little unclear- why do we need to check the mirrors for 'signalling' in any direction? To me, it would make sense to look all around before you start turning anywhere but to make the drivers around you aware of the next move without acting on it should be perfectly fine and should not require checking in your mirrors.
Hey we have to drive defensive and be aware of our surroundings
We check to see if there’s anyone on the left or right before we signal to move
So a motorbike/cyclist or even a vehicle overtaking
Checking the mirror before signalling only makes sense if we were to not signal if see certain things. I think the idea is to not startle somebody who might be right next to us. Basically if for example a cyclist is passing you and you start signalling towards their side, they might fear an immediate movement from you and react with a sudden evasive behaviour that puts them or even others in danger.
There are of course situations when signalling is very unlikely to surprise anybody, eg, if you are already on a turning lane. But maybe it is better to make checking your mirrors before signalling a reflex, even if it wouldn’t be necessary in every situation.
the compulsory signal for the left turn despite left being the only way to turn makes no sense to me and I thought it's a driving fault to signal similar to signaling left when seeing a no right turn sign
The signal is helpful for pedestrians as other drivers would know that you can only go left but pedestrians that don’t drive, won’t
Know
@@ClearviewDriving so should you also signal at no right turns ?
@@cpu280 you should signal if you think your signal will be beneficial to others around you.
Signal whenever you’re turning
Don’t signal for bends
@@ClearviewDriving thanks for the reply
Car was screaming 😱 for gear change and then she changed gear even she doesn’t changed some time.
Yeah most times new drivers choose to stay in a lower gear for more control but that’s fine for a test
Oh Dear..
Why No sign following or sat nav following happened in the test ??
Hey I did a few signs as it’s not really a test route as there’s no test centre close to this are a
@@ClearviewDriving ok thank u
Could do with using her mirrors more as I have observed her not checking the center and right mirror as often as she should passing parked cars on her left. Also it would be an idea for her to use her center mirror more when slowing down and stopping, eg slowing down and stopping at traffic lights, crossings, behind cars and junctions. Shame about the serious faults, just needs a bit more confidence and plan ahead a bit more.
The amount of people I see that don't gey up to speed on slip roads and have issues with joining a motorway for example is insane. Many times on dual lane slip roads I end up having to change to the outside lane because I'm following someone who isn't accelerating enough and we are going to hit the motorway 15, 20 or more mph slower than the traffic, giving you many less options should something unexpected happen. If they wana take that risk I don't want to be forced to aswell thankyou very much. Its nearly as bad as lane hogging and tailgating.
What would you advice if it's a super short slip road with busy traffic? Got one near me and It scares me everytime 😂
@@laurenjones2909 yea I have one near me and its not great lol. The biggest thing is practice on it to build confidence. Beyond that, stay in a lower gear with higher revs so you have more power straight away if you need it, the extra engine braking will also help you slow down to slide into a gap if that's the better option at the time. As soon as you can see the road and the traffic get that foot down to match your speed, doing the same speed as the traffic means you are moving with the gaps so you have more time to move into one, if you can't match the speed the closer you are to it the easier it will be. Also most family cars can slow down quicker than they accelerate especially already at speed, so your going to find it easier to slow than to accelerate. Other than that is there anything in particular you find difficult with it?
why are cars allowed to be parked all over the sides of roads? I get that people need to park somewhere but this seems dangerous and wouldn't it be more safe to build extra car parks. The roads are a perfect size for 2 cars to drive down until you park along both edges and reduce it down to just one car fitting through... I think the answer might be that car ownership and the population has increased exponentially and that the way we live now isn't properly adapted for so many vehicles? It adds more stress to driving when having to avoid so many obstacles as well as staying alert for hazards, road signs, car control etc
Muscle flex white top asap
I like one the hand steering and I admit I did that in my first lesson with my new instructor after changing before he called me out on it :p . Said I shouldn't do that as the examiner doesn't like it as it comes off as I don't have good control. But some say like you said as long you have control of car it's no issue.
I noticed she released the handbreak before actually moving off- is that really okay in tests, as usually we were taught releasing hand break after the safety checks. While it looks like it is easier to move off but don't want to get bumped for that in the test lol.
Hey yes you can release the hand brake before doing your checks. Again it’s just about control, as long as you don’t roll back in between.
I always hold my footbrake to release my hand brake.
I think your supposed to put the car into gear b4 releasing the hand brake and using one hand to turn the wheel big no no
Thank you, Mrs. Amin. Great video, we benefited a lot, but you speak quickly, so it is difficult for foreigners whose mother tongue is not English and who live in Britain to understand everything you are saying. Please speak a little slowly and raise your voice as well because the sound of the video was low. Thank you
Hey thank you, I will try to sort that out
I think the subtitles may be helpful?
Nice structure to the video, well done.
You are helping the pupil too much though, an examiner shouldn't be giving that much information.
The main point I would like to highlight is your comment on checking the centre mirror every 8 seconds.
Telling a pupil this will only lead to them concentrating on counting, instead of thinking about when to look in the mirrors.
Pupils should be taught to think for themselves and to understand the risks.
Neither the HWC or DES give a time for mirror checks.
Just some friendly advice and hopefully it will be taken that way 👍
Hey the mirror check time reference is just got get them checking mirrors regularly
As learners get more practice they don’t even think about checking the mirrors in a time frame, it’s becomes more instinctive :)
With me helping her at the beginning in the test the examiners don’t expect a new driver to deal with challenges like that
So they will say “this is not part of the test”
That’s what I’ve seen in my experience as an instructor for 10 years
My examiners were always helpful and advisory. Probably as much as she is. One advised me which lane to use on a roundabout because that one was known to be confusing.
Another then advised me not to overtake a bike because the test was almost over. The same examiner was super encouraging when I almost messed up my manoeuvre and told me to stop and think about it.
They want you to pass and are helpful.
Her car sounds like it's got a gearbox bearing about to fail. She's a decent driver though
Around the 20 minute mark.
Why indicate for pedestrians when there are no crossings for pedestrians? It doesn't make any sense, Amin.
Are your students the only ones that can get chosen for a mock?
Hey no anyone can do a mock test but im not always able to book in for mock tests
Scary to think someone like her was allowed to drive anywhere tbh, I’ve been driving for 2 months from a complete beginner and just passed yesterday and I drive better than her🤯
But if u cross u’re hands on the steering wheel that’s not a mistake?
Crossing your hands over the steering wheel isn’t something you want to be doing all the time
It’s only a fault of you lose control over the wheel or your hand slips from the wheel
But definitely try and avoid it
Still waiting for a muscle flex video
why there was 2 minors and while not in the test condition turn to 3 minors???
The question is why did she stop on the slip road in the first place ?? …..
She didn’t realise it was a slip road
She thought it was a junction, as it’s a narrow slip road
Another excellent video massive well done 👏 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Tony TC Instructor Training.
She failed big time 😂
I wonder do you have any male pupils?
4 serious mistakes...! Sounds a lot to me for her
She’s been just awful!!!! That’s why our roads are fucked!!!
