Thank you for posting these videos, helped me pass my test today with 3 minors!!! The videos with the serious faults are actually the most informative ones so thank you to the learners too lol :)
Thanks for sharing, Rohit. A few more driving lessons in observations, namely mirrors checks, and she'll do well. The lack of mirror checks scared me a little. However, that's because I'm a habitual mirror checker. Good luck for your test, Tina.
PASSED FIRST TIME TODAY! With only 4 minors! These videos helped tons💕 To anyone having their test soon, just breathe and concentrate and it’ll be over before you know it!
22:08 "When it is safe to do so pull upon the right" she takes so long to choose a spot the bigger ones are all passed. Finally she goes for a short space comes in at a sharp angle and after straightening up we are blocking the road and we have chosen a space with a van parked to obscure our view. To get out of this fiasco she should reverse and get closer to the kerb. About five minutes later we abort the manoeuvre. Her observation technique was bewildering we wait ages for a safe opportunity to move then eventually a safe opportunity occurs so then we start looking around by the time we finish looking the opportunity has gone.
Passed yesterday with 4minors and nearly got caught out twice by roundabouts, one poor planning (i knew where i was going but i had a brain blooper) and another was because a van decided to change direction just i was rolling out
I remember the days of not using my mirrors as a learner - she needs quite a bit more practice. Biggest thing that got me passing first time was practicing in my own car. It's essential. Now, I use my mirrors all the time and wonder how I ever drove without them!
Wow..such a stupid instructor...made her park at the wrst place 4 car reversing nd stopping all the flow of traffic nd blaming her 4 doing so...smh🙄...u r to b blamed.... who tells smeone to park on one side when there r already cars on other side of road..narrowing the gap..there was an empty road right infrnt of that1🤦♀️
You may have answered this in another video, but why are you using a custom Australian voice for the sat nav? Nothing against any accent, but I would have thought this would be a little distracting (for learners), especially with the humour/comedy element.
I wonder if their local centre uses the same voice for some reason. I had my test this month and it was just the default British female voice, which my instructor used so that practice matched as closely as possible. I'd personally find it a little offputting if the voice on the day of the actual test changed from what I was used to, especially if I was otherwise nervous, it would be another thing that would just kind of reinforce that what you're doing is different and more significant.
Sry bt signal b4 mirrors or mirrors b4 signal doesnt make ny difference atall..nd isnt a aeriois atall..ur logic behind it makes no sense.....in ny case we r NT gonna steer infrnt of ny car even when we r signalling..it jst means we want to turn nd if ny car wants to give way to us on their own then we take that hint nd turn..otherwise suppose we have to move to another lane nd we slow down on our lane nd wait in mirrors 4 a safe gap without signalling cuz cars keep coming the other lane or we r reaching end of the road or junction or traffic signal pping from where we wunt b able to change lanes then..wht do we do then?? Block our lane nd sit in middle of lane like a goof without giving signal so noone would knw we wanna chamge lane..thats sooo stupid! ...even when cars r coming on other lane we hv to signal to let then knw we wanna change lane nd then check mirrors if smeone wanna let us in ..Also when she was in left lane nd as close to curb as possible nd turning left whts the point of checking left mirrors b4 signalling?? Who is gonna magically appear on ur non existant left side?.. thnk God this stupid instructor isnt an examiner,he will b failing learners 4 no solid reason atall
Not sure how it works there, but I think it's useless to check mirrors before signal. More logical would be to put the signal and judge from there on, check mirrors. Or am I just crazy?
if there’s a car behind you or beside you and you just signal they’re going to think you’re about to pull out in front of them, causing them to slow down, but if you check your mirrors, wait till they’ve passed, then signal, then you haven’t affected anyone :)
@@Zah282 Not really. If I check my mirrors and it's safe, from that time to the time I put the signal, the situation can change and have to check again, slowing the traffic down because I did not make my mind. Seems more rational to put the signal and check everything from there. The cars behind you MUST have a nice distance anyways and they can pass you anytime. Anyways, rules might differ around the world.
@@Carlos94016 check your mirrors again if the situation changes. It’s not black or white but really u check the mirrors or observe to see if it’s safe or if it’s worth signalling. If u use a roundabout for example and decide to signal before checking if it’s safe to move over when passing the penultimate exit the traffic over the round about will see u attempting to exit and will pull out. If a car is in the lane beside u and u then decide it’s not safe, u have already signaled and traffic is already attempting to pull out bc u didn’t look to see if it was safe. Checking after signalling doesn’t make sense to me at all. Also if someone is closely following u, u wouldn’t know how to time your signal correctly if u don’t observe or check your mirrors first. If someone is tail gating u need to slow and signal earlier than you would usually do u don’t get hit from behind or whatever. You won’t know that if u don’t check your mirror before signaling. The signal is to warn said driver, hey I’m slowing down to turn so you should probably back off. Ppl should be at a safe distance but some ppl are just dick heads. I suggest watching Ashley Neal’s content. His explanations make more sense. Rohit even explained a good example in the debrief

its down to examiner discretion, usually if you miss a spot its usually not a problem but if you keep on missing safe gaps then yes it will become a serious if your holding up traffic behind
That's how people are taught to check the gear stick is in neutral, yea maybe not as violently as she shook it but pushing it side to side suggests it's in neutral and gives extra confirmation of it
Passed my test today with 2 minors, I’m over the moon thanks so much for all the content you guys put out on here it helped so much :)
Wow well done! You must be so happy!
You went for a driving test with two kids in the back, lol. I got 5 minors I think, so well done
Aww hopefully she gets some more confidence before her real test! Great effort Tina!
Thank you for posting these videos, helped me pass my test today with 3 minors!!! The videos with the serious faults are actually the most informative ones so thank you to the learners too lol :)
I had my test this morning at 8:10am and I passed with only 1 minor! I’m so happy!!!
Literally fell asleep at like 23:10 and woke up at 25:38 with that horn🤣

Good Instructor and also good observation.
Thank you for these videos, they're so helpful! I have my test coming up this month too 🙊 good luck Tina! 💕

Would waving at another driver to say thanks on you test not be marked as minor??
I check my mirrors a lot more than usual because I don’t wanna get shouted at if I hit someone
She seems like nice girl. Well done on passing first time

Its the James English (Australia) voice pack, comes free with tomtom & tomtom mobile app :)
test on the 26th never done a mock test, 21 hours of lessons and over 200 hours of driving with my dad, wish me luck!
My test is the same day good luck ! I’ve also never done a mock test 😬😬

Hi, how can I have driving lessons with you, please?
Get in contact with us through our website; www.DriveLondon.co.uk
Can I just ask where the handbrake is in your car?
why does sat nav say its 30mph road? then floor markings says 20... am guessing they have changed it to a 20 right?
You can’t/don’t rely on sat navs for speed limits no matter how advanced they are
Why has the female instructor disappeared from this page ?
My guess is that she is pregnant/maternity leave or she just doesn’t want to atm
I think she has her own driving school now, it’s called Clearview Driving - she has YT videos too

very helpful video
Glad it was helpful!
Did Tina pass
Yes she did on her first attempt
@@DriveLondon Congratulations Tina
@@4ts4ts2 Well done Tina
Please confirm
You flashed that she ve done a serious fault by not checking mirrors multiple times , can the examiner give more serious faults for the same mistake !
Why is the satnav In that voice change it back 🤣
I know it threw me. I was expecting the normal female voice, lol.
Too close, not to close.
