In this video, Mat will be driving for 30 minutes in a town centre, in his Ford Fiesta - which has a petrol engine and a manual gearbox. There will be a mixture of roads, junctions, roundabouts and hazards - and he will try to drive confidently and safely. He will also be completing all four manoeuvres that are currently used in the UK Driving Test, so watch out for those.

Great video. I passed my test in 1988, never had an accident that was my fault and my licence remains clean. That's due to safety always being paramount, always. Even though I have been driving a long time, you can never stop learning and ADS videos are a fantastic way to keep up to date, gain knowledge and stay safe. Thanks.

I'm curious, at around the 23:35ish mark why did you choose to put the car in sport mode? Does it change quite a lot in how the car handles, or is the throttle more sensitive and easier to manage at more subtle levels? Thanks for the video!

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

On this car selecting sport mode changes 3 things - the steering gets heavier, the accelerator pedal is more sensitive, and it also opens a valve in the exhaust for a deeper sound. I switched mode so the engine sound could be heard better for the video ;-)

@parlabaneisback 3 жыл бұрын

12:38 "The mirror-signal-manoeuvre routine to ensure it's safe." I've never been quite clear what you might spot in the mirror to make the manoeuvre (left turn) unsafe. I can think of maybe bikes coming up the inside, but is there anything else that you might spot that'd mean you should abort the turn?

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

For a left turn it might be a vehicle very close behind us (so we would need to brake more gently) or a cycle to our left (so we would delay or abort the left turn). For other manoeuvres there might be other dangers - even after driving for 30 years it's amazing what dangerous manoeuvres other drivers attempt. Just today we saw a BMW swerve from the overtaking lane on a dual carriageway across two lanes of traffic into a slip road - madness!!!

I like the patience word too, but I cant differentiate between Patience and anticipate when driving anymore. Please help

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

'Patience' means: The capacity to accept or tolerate delay, problems, or suffering without becoming annoyed or anxious. 'Anticipate' means: Guess or be aware of what will happen, and take action in order to be prepared. If you think about it, these are two different things - but they are both very useful skills when driving!

At 10:05, I disagree with him; he should be in "third gear" and not "4th gear". The road is too narrow; there are vehicles parked on either side of the road, and for the gear he's in, doing 17 to 20 MPH is too slow. Third gear is a more controllable gear and safer to use for that road (forget the fuel consumption for that moment).

How to deal with clutch control for Petrol & Diesel car when on an uphill slop - Can you please create one video, which i believe will help many viewers and subscribers. @all - please like this comment if you agree? Beceuase, I have a petrol car and my trainer have diesel car; practicing on trainer car when on uphill, irrespective of slope of uphill, the clutch control is sufficient enough to get the car going without Gas; whereas when i started uphill with my petrol car, it doesn't work in same fashion as diesel one. I need to use Clutch and Gas together to get moving on uphill.
