I think she didn't realise it was a give way, maybe due to dead ground. Pin should have intervened to sstop her. Unless he could tell it was clear both ways, he was looking quite frantically.
@@rionnation9700 When I was learning to drive, I was ALWAYS told to apply the handbrake as soon as I stopped. Some years later, I was assessed to see whether my driving met the required standard to become an instructor. The assessor was pleased that I remembered the handbrake first rule, as so many were either forgetting it or were not aware of it.
pin theres about 400 cameras we dont need an extra one for when ur talking about a fault coming up. voice over is fine 🤣should make the driver cam abit smaller
Thank you so much for your content and dedication to these videos Pin. I passed my test today 2nd time and I’ve watched pretty much every video, mock test and The Ultimate Driving Course videos. You’ve been my virtual instructor! You’ve become a familiar name in my house my partner says “are you watching that Pin again!!?” 🤣🤣 thank you so much. Will continue to watch ⭐️
Some advice you probably don’t need, adding the video to explain the faults doesn’t help better understand the fault because it’s not demonstrating anything, just adds more time and effort for you to do.
Never thought would come here to say this… I passed my tests with 4 minors after constantly watching your videos to see what is considered as minor and serious faults. Your videos are so helpful. Keep up the good work. Thanks. I have recommended your channel to my friend.
I passed my test on 2nd October after third attempt, I had one serious fault each in my first two attempts. Thanks for your videos they helped me. And I still find myself watching these driving videos at random. 😊
To be driving at this standard with a test coming up is not great. Poor gears selection, road speed, lane discipline, awareness at junctions, observations when carrying out manoeuvres and stopping at roundabouts is not something she should be doing at this stage. She ain’t ready.
I think you should say the faults after they do them as it will give us a chance to guess if they did a fault and we can learn better. Just suggesting!
Not really. General rule is that you shouldn't be forcing other drivers to slow down or stop when you're pulling out. If you can't build up speed fast enough then you need to either learn to build up speed faster or - if that level of acceleration is unreasonable - find a bigger gap.
@@jakerockznoodles I'm 50 50 on this, slowing someone down harshly definitely serious, but causing someone to step on the break a lil bit is fine imo, like that's what the brake is for
Not sure why she was coming out of and into the test center at 5mph 😄 she didn't do too badly, observations were the big one and pulling out at the blind junction she was too wide on was pretty risky 😬 I passed my theory first try last month which I'm really happy about, I've had six paid driving lessons so far but my instructor wants me to get booked in for my test after around 15 once I've covered manoeuvres ☺ pretty nice confidence boost on that front! I really want to pass my test first time 😁 still here and learning from these videos
you should book your test now/very soon. test bookings are like 3-6 months down the road in most places, so you can secure a future spot for like 5 months from now if needed and then get a cancellation if you need to bring it forward. I passed sept 14th by getting a cancellation like 2 weeks before, but had booked 26th of September back in May as that was the earliest date at my test center. defo worth doing and congrats on the theory pass goodluck with your learning
@@Definedd I've been told to do that but not by my instructor 😅 I started manoeuvres this week so I'd be expecting to get my test booked in by November/December. Thanks for the advice though, I just don't want to fail and have to wait the extra before I can get back and try again with the new extension period by the DVSA. Congrats on passing too 😃👌🏻
@@GGMattt no harm in booking your test for 5-6 months from now just to be safe. dont need to tell them just makes it alot quicker when you're trying to get cancellations a few months from now
She seems like a pretty good driver. I think maby nerves were getting the better of her with a different car and the cameras so she ended up making more mistakes. But overall she was pretty good when I compare to some others I've watched who thought they were ready.
I’ve passed my test while ago but from a learners perspective they can see all the good, and all the bad with the camera angle they can see where the feet should be etc or where the feet shouldn’t be, speed, revs all that good stuff
Failed today with 2 minors 1 serious absolutely gutted the serious was a red light on a roundabout I was too busy talking I didn’t know and I had to slam the brakes confidence feels absolutely stripped
A lot of people fail their first time, for some it can take two or more fails to get over your nerves and actually pass. You could drive like an angel on lessons, but when it comes to the tests the pressure is on and people make silly mistakes. You'll get there trust me.
<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="195">3:15</a> this is so common in the normal day driving that people think it is ok to do that, they forget after passing the driving test
Some feedback for you; Like the new facecam when you do the faults, but the audio has a hum too it which you can hear every time it pops up. It's more effort on the editing side, but an option to remove it could be to unlink your audio from that video and save it as a separate file, then run than audio file through Audacity to remove the background noise and hum, then relink the new file to the video so it sounds crisp. (Doing an audio sync at the start of your recording will make it easy to relink them- 3 loud claps at the start to link the peaks) Keep up the good work!
I'd pay you extra just to come to Scotland and teach me because I just cannot gel with some instructors here... hahaha. Watch your videos daily, for hours on end. Thank you for giving me most of the knowledge I have for when I'm out driving 🙂
Am from Zambia 🇿🇲 today have just passed my theory test on general questions just because of this channel. I really respect the work you are doing here. I salute. My real name is john.
Started watching these types of videos recently (driving for 13+ years) and I find one odd thing that I do not recall ever doing or being even told to do (granted different driving styles perhaps) is look over the shoulder when starting off. In general I was taught that I should never need to look over the shoulder if I properly use the mirrors and maintain good awareness. In our country parallel is done in the test area before going to the streets, but you are technically allowed only changing to reverse once and each additional is a minor.
Please can you make a video for someone who as never drive before how to start the driving and pass on time please am finding it very difficult because tomorrow will actually be my first time of driving
What is the tip for new drivers to stick to the speed limit? Some goes on 30 to almost 40 when the realize, similarly some on 30 goes to 23-24 because the way roads bends it speeds up car which is in 30 to 33-34-35, any tip to stay within limit and on the exact speeds????
Speedometers generally speaking overread slightly; there is a 10% tolerance in Britain, so if the needle shows 30 m.p.h., you are probably doing about 27.
Foot off the gas, and feather the brake if needed. And if anything. When I do 30mph, my speed is 3 miles out. If I really wanna hit 30. I'd be doing 33 mph. And you are still at 30mph.
It's all about feeling the car, and hearing the revs of the engine, if the pitch doesn't increase (revs going up) then you're maintaining speed, if the pitch goes down you're slowing down. A small glance at your speed is fine and then you just use your ears and general sense of motion to maintain speed.
Is it bad if i need to ask my instructor questions about my faults and advice. Is he not meant to give me advice and tell me my faults without me needing to initiate
She was to cocky. She needs at least another 5 months driving. I passed 2nd time with 5 minors, first time I was to cocky and over confident like her. She needs to sort her cockyness out
Tbf, it tricks your brain into thinking you're safe and eating and calms you down. Does look tacky and sound annoying in a quiet situation like a test, though. I wouldn't do it personally.
absolutely disagree.. all countries have rules / signs. literally just off a flight from usa... where the signs are so late ... caused 12 accidents in 8 days just from what we saw..@greypixelphotographydotcom5754
Based on the first 4 minutes alone I wouldn't like to advice her to go for her exams as she clearly needs more confidence in driving alongside knowledge to get where she needs to be. At this time she will pose a danger to everyone around her including herself, which clearly isn't the wished for result. Now I'm not British, never been there. But doesn't that double line on the left side of the vehicle not indicate she isn't allowed to park there? Also she clearly isn't looking before moving, this is a serious case that she really needs to work on as this will sooner or later cause accidents. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="503">8:23</a> If she turned the car a little more to the right she doesn't have to turn her neck so far. Specially when she gets older she will have issues performing this same move causing accidents to happen real fast. If not with another vehicle then with her own neck. Which clearly would be bad. I can tell you, if she was driving in the Netherlands for the same test, she would have been told that she wasn't ready.
Hi Pin, Sister’s doing her lessons, and keeps on stalling on stop starts when under pressure at high traffic lights, or give ways, do you have any videos on how to combat that? Cheers.
Don't rush off the clutch, get the biting point then release it slowly once the car is moving. Put gas on to move off, some cars will stall/more likely to stall if not using enough gas to move.
stop bringing clutch up too quick. its a slow progressive movement. think of it as not allowing a sprung door to slam shut.. just control that clutch up until the car has completely moved off...keep foot near pedal (dont put on floor) as you will need go to 2nd within a second or 2...
Your handbrake is your best friend in this case, hold onto the handbrake and find the bite and then press gently onto accelerator and put your handbrake down whilst lifting the clutch and pressing more on your accelerator and your car will move forward. Not good at explaining this as im just used to doing it but use your handbrake if needed and dont let others pressure your sister to move quickly or she will just stall
She just needs to not think about the other cars behind her at traffic lights or junctions, don't let them pressure her into rushing and to take her time. Don't rush to take small gaps, take big gaps so you also don't need to rush if you were on your test it'd be better to get a hesitation minor fault instead of a serious.
Everyone always asks Pin how you put the car in reverse, after watching just a few videos even I know there's a lever to pull up 😄 maybe the people doing mock tests with him don't watch these.
The position of reverse varies from one make of car to another, and how to engage it can also vary. On the actual test, you should be familiar with the layout, and the examiner will certainly not tell you how to engage it, even if he knows where it is.
