    I was in the first driving test slot of 2021 this morning, I only managed to book 1 lesson this year a few days ago and practiced the rest with mum/brother and watched a million of your videos. I'm very grateful for your content as it helped me pass my test first time with only 2 minors! The pressure of failure was unreal as it would have meant severe consequences for my house move and job, with another few months wait for the next test. I'm so happy it's hard to describe and I felt the need to return here to thank you.

      The route on his real test was debatably 'easier', but still requires confidence to make progress on the several fast moving roads, but on his mock test he does some tricker roads and still does very well imo.
      So worthy of zero faults on his test.

    I also got 0 faults on my driving test. I passed on the 26th of October and was a confident driver as I had a mix of private and instructor led practice. This is definitely the way to go if possible. On my test I chose to overtake someone on an A road due to them going too slow. These decisions really show your examiner that you are confident with your choices and maneuvers. Good luck to anyone taking their test soon! It's not as bad as you think.

    My teachers have told me never to call it a “6 point check”
    They said it should be called , all round effective observation. Otherwise the mirror checking becomes mechanical looking and more like a checklist rather than actual all round observation.
    On another note. I throughly enjoyed watching this test video. Gave me a great insight into how a test is conducted.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Yes what you say is true, all round effective observations is what is required. But sometimes giving a name to something helps people remember and understand what you mean.
      Like how you might say "MSM" or "POM" or "Tyre and tarmac" or "2 second gap" etc etc.

    These roads are just too easy to pass with zero faults. Just try driving in busy areas of London and pass with no faults then I will credit you as perfect driver. Good drive though 👍🏽.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      There are plenty of tricker roads in this area, this is just a more simple test route, but it all depends on what you find easier and harder.
      This route is all about making progress on dual carriageways and rural roads, many would struggle with this as they are anxious to drive faster.
      Roads in some parts of London are easier in some respects as you are often travelling less than 30mph, but then you need very good judgement skills at the junctions, as gaps may be few and far between.

      Certainly does cover quite a large, and varied, area.
      As such you really need to know your stuff to be able to pass in Crawley, well unless you get lucky and get a route that suits you, like this route is all rural roads and making progress, but no complex roundabouts.

      Please let me know if I am understanding you correctly, but at 27:45 it is a warning sign for a junction to the right (side road), the side road is about 100 yards down the road, the side road is on a bend, so potentially reduced visibility for merging traffic, but most likely it gets busy there at school time as all the parents park down that road while they pick up their children.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Yep it is a manoeuvre, the control element is pretty straight forward, well straight backwards! It is more assessing your observation skills as you need to be super aware of your surroundings and ready to stop for any approaching traffic, as it is going to be really confusing for them if you continue to reverse while they overtake you.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The new highway code rules are unclear and potentially dangerous imo.
      Its not a law to give way to pedestrians looking to cross, just advice. You need to assess if it is actually safe to give way, essentially ask yourself could you cause a accident by stopping to give way, as other drivers would not expect it.
      imo if in doubt it's best to proceed with caution, don't just stop randomly to giveway, of course if you are 100% sure its safe then you might choose to giveway to a pedestrian at junction, typically on a very quiet side road.

      @UKDrivingTest  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      you need to drive at the appropriate speed and an appropriate level of caution.
      This will depend on the road you are on and the hazards around.
      Sometimes 30mph is too slow, such as on a clear, open and straight rural road or dual carriageway with no hazards, other times it is way too fast, such as in a narrow residential road with parked vehicles nearby and lots of pedestrian activity.
      In order to assess the appropriate speed and level of caution get some lessons with a professional instructor and watch videos like this and see how the speed varies on different situations.

      Well done on passing!
      Sometimes when an instructor says you are not ready it is because you are not proficient at ALL the syllabus, but each test route is different so you may not be tested on certain skills / subjects on certain routes, for example on this route Ryan WAS NOT testing on his multi lane roundabouts, parallel parking, slip roads, bay parking, traffic lights etc.
      Essentially you may get 'lucky' and get a route that works to your strengths, but you could equally get 'unlucky' and get a route which highlights your weaknesses.

    Question- I’ve noticed that your videos a lot of times when learners are overtaking parked vehicles with driver inside, you don’t mention signaling right. I’ve done lessons in my country where we always MUST signal when overtake or take off from side even if there are no cars. Can you please advise so I am prepared

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You don't need to signal to go around parked vehicle in the UK.
      You approach speed and positioning with make your intentions clear, plus you should be checking mirrors effectively so should be aware of what drivers behind are doing.
      I know many countries encourage signalling to go around parked vehicles but as mentioned this is NOT needed in the UK, there is SO many parked vehicles on the roads in the UK if you signalling to go round all of them your indicator stalk would probably fall off! Also UK drivers are use to it, so it is pretty obvious to them you will be steering around, they don't need a signal to tell them.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Very true that you it is not advised to stop within 10 meters from a junction.
      On a driving test the examiner may someone specific ask you to stop in certain places to perform a certain exercise or show a certain skills, so for example here the examiner wanted to see a hill start, so they would have asked:
      "I would like you to pull up on the left just before the next junction"
      They will also get you to stop behind a parked vehicle so you can demonstrate you can deal with pulling away from behind a parked vehicle, sometimes this may involve needed to stop over a driveway, so the examiner may ask:
      "I would like you to pull up on the left just before the next parked vehicle, please don't worry about blocking the driveway"
      Some of the routine stops on test will be YOUR decision where to stop, in which case you should avoid junctions and driveways etc. if the examiner wanted you to choose a place they would say:
      "I would like YOU to find a safe place to pull up on the left somewhere along this road"

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      When directing you to pull over the examiner should give you enough time to process it and if they ask you to find the safe place then the road should have plenty of opportunities to pull over. So in theory not following their instruction should not happen. If however you did not pull over when they asked you, and they gave you plenty of time, they may ask you again. It is also worth noting a certain amount of pulling over on the left needs to be done for the test to be compliant, so if you 'ignored' the instructions several times the test would not be valid, therefore you can't pass, but just missing one pull over on the left should not cause a huge issue, they will just get you to do it elsewhere.
      As above, they will give you plenty of time to pull over, so waiting half a mile is quite extreme, similar things to mention as above, pulling over needs to be done for the test to be compliant blah blah blah....

      The examiner will confirm the test will last about 40 minutes, never 45 mins, however sometimes the test goes quicker than 40 minutes depending on the route and how the pupil gets on, if they are driving confidently and traffic is light is might only take 35 mins. But legally the minimum length the test can be is 30 mins long.

      Depends of course what you mean by 'easy' many London learners would struggle with this route as they have never gone about 40mph and have limited experience of country roads, which often will feel very narrow, all this means they will probably drive too slowly and fail.
      Some of the routes in London seem easy as they are just lots of slow speed driving and stop start traffic.
      I am sure there are also more tricky routes in London with busy roundabouts and busy high streets, as are there more tricky routes in Crawley as you can see on this playlist:

    If you are following the road ahead do you signal?

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Do you mean at a roundabout?
      Typically you do not signal on approach, as it will look like you are turning left or right at said roundabout, depending on which signal you used.
      However you would typically signal left to exit the roundabout, signalling after the exit before the one you want, so if it is 2nd exit signal left after passing the 1st exit.
      Rules are slightly different from mini roundabout. You might choose to signal left on approach if you are going ahead AND it is the 1st exit, this helps oncoming drivers. Also on mini roundabouts you might not have time to signal to exit, so this is not needed.

      Do you mean at 9:25 on the video?
      We are turning right at the roundabout, so should be in a right-hand lane, being in the left to turn right is likely to confuse and mislead others and high risk of causing a collision.
      It also goes against the advice on the highway code, which states for turning right use the right-hand lane unless road signs or road markings state otherwise, there are not road markings or signs saying you can use the left-hand lane to turn right at this roundabout.
      Due to the above if the learner used the left hand lane to turn right it would highly likely be a serious fault and immediate fail.

    • @UKDrivingTest
      @UKDrivingTest  3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      bear in mind:
      - the speed dashcams /sat navs will tend to be slightly less than what is displayed in the speedo, and the speedo is what you should based your speed on. So the dashcam may say 50mph, but speedo may say nearer 55mph.
      - The road is slightly narrow and not long for a particular long time, so doing an extra 5-10mph really does make a big difference. of course different story of the road was a bit wider and longer.
      - It is a speed limit, not a speed target. 71% of all deaths of new drivers take place on rural roads, the main reasons typically being excessive speed, often treating the speed limits like a target, especially boy racers with friends trying to recreate "Fast and furious part 59 - Dom's urine incontinence". As such for a new driver 50mph (or 55mph as per possible speedo) would be more than sufficient.
