you’re so funny 😂 that’s exactly how I think as a learner driver: oncoming car- ‘aaargghh’ Parked vehicles-‘arrhhhh’ Junctions-‘aaarrghhh’ Truck- ‘-argghh’ Having to give way when it’s my right of way -‘grrrr’ But in honesty, after watching your video I feel much more confident at driving. Thanks so much Richard 😄🙏🏻

It helped me feel more confident to try again. I put my test on hold end of May and got a date in July.I literally watched your videos everyday. I passed second time today 😊. You have no idea how much you helped me. Thank you so much.

I just got a new car and have been driving for a few weeks... And I've scraped my car a couple of times because of my own mistakes. That tip about rushing has really opened up my eyes even though I knew it was a problem I had, yet hearing you say it made it click in very well. I'm a car enthusiast and I really want to perfect my driving skills. Your videos are slowly giving me back the confidence to drive again.

Interesting to hear that being a passenger imprints those driving habits of experienced drivers. Confirmed my thoughts. I noticed that right after my first few driving classes on the public road. It takes some time to get rid of it and then learn gradually in a slower tempo. Very helpful driving videos. Thank you!
