pro tip: use the mirror closest to the curb, check the distance, where is the curb compared to your car, how many inches? or feet even? now you can place the car close safely, get used to that while checking often where your driver's seat is at in the lane so you can learn where that wheel is without even having to check the mirror. It takes some time before you'll automatically know. For me, driving various cars every week, it took probably a bit longer than people driving just their own car.

1st rule of driving: slow down if you're unsure. Narrow spaces/lanes, bad weather, light changing to amber, unexpected situations, etc. No test administrator will fail you because you slowed down in a difficult situation, that's what you're supposed to do. It gives you time to think and react appropriately, exactly what they want to see you doing.

Definitely among most important aspects and does deserves to be examined, especially for how one treats fellow drivers who go by this rule. Where I live, the main obstacle to this rule is the non cooperative nature of fellow road users who are very likely to cause road rage over petty issues.

That GoPro on your head is so incredibly helpful!! When I first started practice driving, my mother would sit in the passenger seat and yell about how I was too close to the curb. Last week, she yelled about how I was too close to the midline. It left me feeling very confused about my placement, second-guessing myself, and that resulted in a lot of mini-zig-zags. No good. Getting to look at proper placement through your eyes is like a breath of fresh air! Thank you

if only I had known this in my lessons earlier on, it would have saved me months of extra anxiety on the road. In 50 lessons with 2 different instructors not once was I offered this excellent advice. Thank you so much. My first instructor did not explain that the chosen reference markers were only for certain circumstances and I was using them all the time which made driving feel dangerous because its hard to look at that, look ahead and look further down the road simultaneously. Your head cam footage really helps.

I jumped here, because I was looking for some guide with engine braking and downshifting and stayed for every lesson. I have license for 10 years, but bought finally a car and your channel helped a lot. Not only to do revision, but no one even ever told me those technical cases on my driving course. What I would add here - everything takes time. I passed test long time ago, took rides as passenger a lot, learned on other people mistakes and I am old enough to think more about risky situations than when I took driving lessons. However when I started to drive my own car it took, and it still takes! a lot of time to guess if I fit in or not. From my experience at the beginning I expected to take much more space than car really needs. It really takes practise and you have to allow yourself to that. Don't be too hard on yourself. Check side mirrors, lean over the window, open the door to see where the curb is, get out of the car and see how far you are from another. And if the bus or garbage truck can fit in - you will too with ease. Once I miscalculated and scratched, luckily only, my bumper against column in underground parking which leads me to another conclusion - if have doubt's - don't do it :D It's better to slow down or stop and get people yell at you, but that still better option than crash or scratch.

That's gold! Really helpful thank you. I'd also like to add that since I am (as learners, we are) more accustomed to being a passenger, so when I am in the driver's seat my brain screams that I am much too far over to the right of the road all the time and therefore oncoming traffic is going to hit me, I must get out of the way. It's instinctive and the way our perceptions have been trained - it takes time to unlearn that (as a learner at the age of 60, that's quite a long time). Your videos are proving useful, well explained and very clear.

Hi , I am an amateur Driver and your video is like a boon to me ..You explained the things in very effective way which most driving instructor does not do . I always felt that car is too big from inside to fit in the gap but you covered this thing also in the video because no one has given me such a good tip regarding ..Thank you and you are awesome !!!

Personally as a new driver i found that this came easier with time, if you can try and get your instructor to get a cone or something to help you practice the distance near an object, the knowledge you gain from that is amazing and in fact helped me stop scraping the wheels on the curb when parking as well as getting through tight gaps when on busy roads

Great explanations. Lucky learners that get you as an instructor. I've been driving for decades and it took me years to feel confident about judging the gap. Discovered relatively recently that l'm claustrophobic. Dr asked me how l felt about crossing bridges and going through tunnels. Talk about a light bulb moment as l had never connected the two. Knowing the cause has unexpectedly made both of them easier, although l still have to sing myself through tunnels.

Thank you for the tips! this really helps full license holders like myself as well as learners. I struggled recently with turning quite a tight corner, there were a line of cars also waiting to turn out of the narrow side road I was trying to turn into. I thought maybe I could let a car out and open up space - but nobody moved. I had to take my courage in my hands and slowly turned into the road, praying I wasn't going to hit the kerb or the other car as i turned. It was actually ok and the car did manage relatively easily - it was a learning point for me that the car feels and looks bigger than it actually is.

I'm glad you found the video helpful. When driving it's best not to think about how much you turn the wheel. Just turn it as much as you need to achieve your position.

I needed this video! I live in Shetland where we have a huge number of single track roads and small towns and villages with narrow streets which people park on in both directions making for pretty scary learning. My first instructor here gave me a hard time for being freaked out when faced with other vehicles on narrow streets. Thankfully my new instructor is a better communicator with more empathy! This has been helpful 👍

I have searched for hours an explanation of how to know i'm in the middle of the lane (google, youtube, instagram, etc) and found no useful tip. However you have solved my problem completely. It is amazing your way of thinking and explaining. This has really helped me!!! Now I can focus my attention on other things than fitting my car in the middle of the lane 🤣🤣🤣 Your videos are pure gold. I am eternally grateful 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

Commercial driver for 18+ yrs here. Interesting take. i like the leg trick to stay centered. How I learned lane control, and this will date me, was back in the day PacMan was a thing and while driving I would put the zipper (center line dividing the lanes) right in the crook of the wind shield where dash and side of the wind shield meet. To this 14 year old I imagined PacMan (wind shield corner) was eating his dots (zipper). Just another trick that may help.

Beautifully explained. One hint that you can add is people can place stickers on the inner edge where windscreen meets dashboard for both and left to make it easier for newbie drivers who are not very confident especially for gap judgement on the passenger side.
