Weekly Learning Point 62- McDonalds Drive Through 

jack harrison coulda been the end of the lesson for all they know she might have been on the way home?

Yeah exactly! First time i went through a drive thru I was so scared 😂😂 and he's coaching her the whole time, its not like the lesson stops anyway

jack harrison g3 ,

They should teach all girls about the mirror thing so that they don't have to half climb out of the window or open their door at ticket machines.

@@dgphi or tolls

It was only a learning situation meaning they had to buy something to drive thru. She had paid for a set amount of time learning to drive so they would have had to sit in the car park to drink a hot drink meaning less driving/learning time. Don’t look to much into stuff.

Maybe he did.... they didn't spawn there you know, they had to drive there, presumably some sort of verbal communication took place.

Chris Gough I had a breakdown on one of my lessons

Pete Smyth 😂

@@peter_smyth Did your instructor comfort you by giving you hug? Did he/she have a tissue at hand? Asking for a friend.

V - That one is fairly clearly criminal fraud. That's the real lesson :) Why it's worth getting the AA out to give even a banger the once-over tbh, the brakes could have failed when you really really needed them and you'd have been in the morgue.

Chris Gough wish I did this on mine. Had no idea what I was doing first time round.

Without being rude, if you've passed your tests and still manage to almost crash in a drive through then it is kinda worrying.

My first time was no problem. Even with my new large SUV I did perfectly fine

@urbex2007 it was the fact i was nervous and took it too fast. When i first passed nerves always used to rush over me and choke me up

@@w.e.s9711 ever heard of nerves?

@@josephmarsh8235 i do it fine now, it was just the once tbf

Ahh. Sounds like a little bit of mind control going on there. Let me guess, they made you buy a coffee? The day of the driving test, one of the most nervous days of our lives! The trip to Mackies could be a calming method to settle the nerves. The coffee to increase the learner's awareness before their test.

Late reply but you aren't kidding, the same day I passed me and my sister went and got a McDonald's for dinner 😋

Teens?? Hell im 36 and first thing im doing when i collect my car after i pass my test is driving up the road, round and back down into maccy ds and getting my babies a happy meal lol! (They wont be with me tho lol!)

I'm 20 and have been driving for a year and I ain't done this once lmao

This should be part of the test 🤣. In all seriousness everyone should have instructed for drive-thrus and supermarkets

@@gamesmaster1060 it just hasn't occurred to me to go to a drive through, always prefer to park and sit at a table like a civilized person.

Well, as you could hear at 2:16 it was actually really good idea to take the learner there:)

Mr.Mister IKR? My driving instructor never let me go to McDonald's

Mr.Mister You’re a funny guy🤣😂. It’s good to learn tho😌

😂😂😂

And she was paying him to do it ahahaha

Depends on the person.. It's mainly about knowing where you are putting the wheels of your car. I often find city traffic giving me troubles because i miss signs or being too late at presorting. Mac Donalds drivethrough and things like reversing on the mirrors is easy for me.

I agree, I didn't have a clue how to do it first time I had to get my mum to show me, also the way the handle clicks and goes off all the time it would make a newly passed driver think their doing something wrong with it.

I agree. I did this with my instructor and without it I wouldn’t have known what to do at a petrol station!

A decent instructor will do it. Luckily i have done petrol many times before for other people but not everyone has.

It took me 15 minutes to figure out how to unscrew my fuel filler cap the first time (had to put a key in, push inwards hard and twist). Felt like a right prat

@@ala0284 Wait, isn’t the gas tank just covered by smt soft and u just push the nozzle inside?

Same here. Every transaction, even a 70c maccas soft serve. I have had my card loaded on my phone for 7 years and tap and go is every where. My phone is always on me and in my car it in a mount so quick and easy at the drive through. It's not like it costs me anything more and and I don't have to carry money or go to an ATM.

In 2021 everyone is using contactless for everything, almost no cash around at all!

sure, contactless is quicker but you're sat in a queue anyway so what's it matter (unless you're counting out pennies).

Disagree. You should use cash as much as possible. If I want a fiver, you can give it me there and then. No one knows about it. Works 100% of the time, quickly and without hindrance. Doesn't need anything other than the money to do it with. No faffing. Visa went down nationwide the other day and caused chaos. They want a cashless society. Ask yourself why. If you allow it, say goodbye to freedom and democracy. They know everything then, you surrender everything. If they don't want you to have money, they block you out of the system. Having faith in banks and government obviously show your innocence and your naivety.

Dude chill out its just a McDonald's drive through

I've had my card compromised twice, both times I suspect it was from using it at a drive through. Now I use cash or a gift card if I have one. Surprise, it hasn't been compromised since! I also put a sticker over the numbers except last 4, before I started paying all cash. One time the guy said something about it, it made me wonder if it was him taking down people's card info, cuz I saw him look at the back too.

Guys watch out, the IlLuMiNaTi is gonna steal your personal information when you use your card, grab your tinfoil hats quick!111!1!

Haha. I agree! I'm the worst to be honest, but this video is a couple of years old. I have improved ;)

I'm over 50 (and was when you wrote this comment). I've hardly used my card for years now, for the simple reason that I'm using my phone (and was using it for paying 2 years ago). You young folk need to keep up ;-)

Not really In the north of scotland we have sod all

Was just about to say that XD

Liam Sheridan me 😂

Such a strange statement

Stupid. Another idiot sleep walking into 1984

You should use cash as much as possible. There is a lot of need for cash. If I want a fiver, you can give it me there and then. No one knows about it. Works 100% of the time, quickly and without hindrance. Doesn't need anything other than the money to do it with. No faffing. Visa went down nationwide the other day and caused chaos. They want a cashless society. Ask yourself why. If you allow it, say goodbye to freedom and democracy. They know everything then, you surrender everything. If they don't want you to have money, they block you out of the system. Having faith in banks and government obviously show your innocence and your naivety.

@@handsoffmycactus2958 I rather have cash private

they ask you what you ordered and you say yes or no.

They ask for varification. Half the time, customers will say yes regardless of if it was actually what they ordered. I guess they don't listen.

Chelsey Customers are angry and impatient when they're hungry! I work in a cafe btw.

Marton Smith HAHA🤣🤣😂

@@Davewithamullet McDonald's food is barrage of chemicals, ammonia, silicone oil, sulphates, propylene glycol (anti-freeze), carmine (crushed insects), anti-depressants, you can even find traces of petroleum in their food believe it or not. It's certainly not the animal you're tasting at McDonald's.

And how did that mesh with the instructions to always have both hands on the wheel?

@@HenryLoenwind one hand was what I was taught

@@HenryLoenwind i expect this to be an exception? as if you was required to do that a drive through wouldnt be legal in a way so.

@@PlinkyVR 2 years ago...let me try to remember why I wrote that... I guess that "2 hand rule" was something either said in the video or repeated over and over in the comments. I was clearly trying to make a joke here.

@@HenryLoenwind damn dont have a filing cabinet for every comment you make and why? rookie commenter mistakes. if that was actually supposed to be a joke you made it look like a genuine question lets hope those 2 years has improved on that lmao

Why not with your instructor? I've been asked and done it before :)

Even better with instructor yeah. I thought it was maybe a bit too unlikely with instructor as someone would have to pay at the barrier 😜

The washing booths are called jet washers in England.

You know what what happened lol

@@nemesisslr cerbed it, scrapped rims, hit side mirror idk xD

Ohhhhh it hurt to hear that

I can't stop imagining someone who hasn't had this lesson going to a drive through for the first time screaming through the window lol

Lol

they also say orrange while ordering a drink... and wtf is that like club orrange ? orange fanta ? or orange juice?

Lindsay Gibson not really. the only drink on the mc donalds menu that has coffee in its name is regular black or white coffee. if the customer wanted a latte or cappuccino they would have said that the first time.

SpookyKettle and I'm saying that isn't the case here. Anywhere I've been (not just Macca's) there's only a category called coffee and none of the items listed have coffee in the name. A white coffee is accepted as any coffee with milk etc here. The only time you would ask for a white coffee is if you are after instant at a mate's.

Lindsay Gibson nah you say white coffee at McDonald's and they know exactly what you mean

Brandon l not where I live, that's my point.

Yes, multi-story car parks especially so many people are frightened of them and many a wheel have been scuffed in them and many doors dinged.

What do you mean? They're everywhere. I didn't have to learn bay parking when I was learning to drive because there were no straight bays near the test centre where I did my test.

Check 1stdrive, he's in birmingham and I've heard great things about him. He also has a youtube channel so check that out. You might already have learnt or in the process. Nevertheless good luck.

That would be a problem if they didn't have lids.

​@@wahtwhy7144 What's a lid? Watch your lap, son.

I’ve been using Monzo it’s really good only problem is doesn’t let me withdraw at my post office for some reason

You’re a wizard, Harry

I'm a what?

you’ll go to hogwarts you’ll get your stupid wand, you’ll get your fucking owl and that’ll be that

listen here Hagrid you fat oaf!

Tyre on the kerb I think :)

It was the tyre.

It definitely sounded like a tyre scrubbing the kerb. Possibly a little bit of alloy on the kerb too.

Deffo tyre ok a wet curb

harrier331 It’s quite easy to scrape your wheels, best way is to drive slowly and carefully and follow the road Layout
