Chris has been driving for several years in the United States, and now needs to pass the UK driving test. He has had a couple of lessons with Mat and has his real Driving Test soon. In this video Mat will conduct a mock test with him, and give feedback afterwards.
UPDATE: Chris passed his real Driving Test today, on the first attempt with only 1 minor fault!

Well done Chris, and all on the 'wrong' side of the road! Good job you were not driving the more-usual manual transmission in these here parts!

@1mgvideo 11 ай бұрын

To pass this mock test with just nine driving faults is very good. I hope he passes the real test. Well done, Chris.

That was really good, couple of minor blips but those are easy sorted. Good Luck for your big Test Chris.

Hi, thank you so much for your videos. I watched all the mocked tests on your channel, and it made me more aware and prepared for my test. I passed yesterday on my first attempt with 3 minors. Thank you

Further to my previous comment, another instructor on KZfaq did a mock test with a pupil who had been driving in the US. He made 13 serious mistakes which makes Chris's result look even better.

I’ve noticed that feeding the steering wheel seems not to be required anymore. The reason I believe holding the wheel at ten to two and feeding the wheel is important is that at at least one point on the mock test, both of Christ’s hands were to the left of the 12 o’clock position. If a sudden adjustment of steering lock was needed, for instance due to a dog or child running into road from the right, then Chris would be compromised on gaining further left lock as both his hands were already at the 9 and ten o’clock positions. I thought Chris gave a very good drive and I felt comfortable all during the test. Well done, Chris.

Thanks for learning, in a junction, if the light is green and our speed is 20 to 25, should we wait a little and then pass? And also reduce the speed?

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 ай бұрын

If the light is green we should continue at a normal speed, but watch the light and be ready to stop if necessary. Slowing down when the light is green could annoy following drivers and cause danger.

At 28:38 The roundabout exit wasn’t free ,could i wait at the entrance line until it’s free and then drive? Or you recommend doing the same as this gentlemen? Thanks

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 6 ай бұрын

Yes, either option would be fine. 👍🏼

Why was it not a driving fault at 10.24 when asked to pull up behind the white car on the left? He indicated too early, as there was a t junction road before the white car. Could confuse cars emerging and cars behind you.

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 11 ай бұрын

Since there was no-one exiting that junction it wouldn't have caused any danger. At least the signal informed the cars behind that we would be slowing down - it didn't really matter to them whether we were turning left or stopping. However - if there had been a car waiting to emerge from that road on the left then our signal could have been dangerous and would have been given a serious fault.

@user-bo8zj7rx9c 5 ай бұрын

The first exit of the roundabout is directly in front of me, at 12 o 'clock positive, How should I signal? Is it the signal left when I enter the circle?

At 13:07 minutes of the video he took the second exit on a mini roundabout, u gave him driving fault for not signalling but my instructor said for mini roundabout to go straight ahead I don’t need to give left signal after passing the first exit . Could u pl reply my question? Thank you

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 ай бұрын

That wasn’t a mini-roundabout - just a small normal roundabout. A mini roundabout should have a round blue sign with three white arrows, and the centre is flat so it can be driven over by large vehicles.

Plenty of good advice here for young, fully qualified but over-confident drivers to heed to avoid featuring on future "bad driving" episodes on some other YT driving channels I could mention! We all have our moments, but some are just reckless risk-takers once they have passed.
