Many learner drivers say they feel apprehensive before driving on a dual-carriageway - but they really shouldn’t worry, as they are statistically the safest roads to drive on. In this video, we will drive on a dual-carriageway for about 25 miles - but to make it more interesting, we will take every exit, before rejoining again! Hopefully, we can share a few tips to help you next time you use a dual-carriageway or motorway.

I'm watching this because I'm thinking of taking lessons. One thing that drives me made is when people don't indicate, I hadn't realised it is against the law not to.

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

Most of the Highway Code is just official advice. Only when it states ‘you must…’ is there an actual law about something. However, we also find it frustrating when inconsiderate drivers are too lazy to indicate property!

Yet again, another video job, well done 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿. And Mr ADS (I know your names Matt, but I like Mr ADS better 😁) you made that seem effortless 😂😂. I was watching it (from start to finish) with my mum and said "he makes it seem SO easy, I think I could do that. But in reality I'm screaming for my mum, because I'm going TOO FAST" 😂😂😂. Yet again. Job well done 👍🏿. And if you're stopping at KFC.. Can I have a big daddy box meal please? You know, for being your biggest fan 😁😂😂😂😂

Thanks for everything you do for the learner community. Can a learner do away with fifth gear on driving test. I think dual carriageway can be safely driven up till 4th gear. For some reason I dread using 5th gear and loose my focus from road to gearbox.

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

That depends on the car and the speed you are driving at. In our experience most cars cruise better at 60mph+ in 5th or 6th gear. On the test you might be given a minor fault for staying in 4th gear, but it won’t affect the test result. Maybe just practice selecting 5th a little more until you are happier to use that gear.

I have found your videos very helpful, i have my test in Bury st Edmunds in 2 weeks. i was wondering if you could answer me a question. if you are driving up a slip road to join the dual carriage way and you indicate and check your blind spot but you cant find a safe gap to join should you slow right down or even stop on the slip road? i was just wondering what you should do in this scenario

@AdvanceDrivingSchool Жыл бұрын

We should adjust our speed in order to take whatever gap is available. We often need to accelerate or brake to do this, but it is very very rare to actually stop on the slip road. Good luck on your test! 🤞🏼

I have a problem when I change a gear especialy from 1st to 2nd. After I move a gear leaver from 1st to 2nd and than lifting the clutch my car slows too much. What you recomend to me to do? Did I need to add gas as I'm changing a gear?

It might be that you are changing gear at the wrong speed? Try to follow what we do in this video: How To Drive A Manual Car: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qLGhl6md36-wipc.html 👍🏼

How fast i should drive on dual carrige way on my driving test? 55m/h is enough or keep closer to 70mh?i hear many different storys abt it😓

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

We must keep up with the flow of traffic. If the road is clear, we like to stay above 60mph - so lorries don’t have to try and overtake us. In heavy traffic, just follow the car in front at a safe following distance. 👍🏼

At 2.40 he goes round the roundabout and indicates left to come off but indicates before the sugar factory but comes off exit after is this correct and what should be done?

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 4 ай бұрын

I indicate to change lanes, cancel the signal as I pass exit 4, then indicate again to take my exit. I prefer to change lanes earlier than usual on that roundabout as it’s safer than doing it quickly after exit 4.

@safaulhoque4667 3 жыл бұрын

Why during lane change sometimes indicator is not used?

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 3 жыл бұрын

We only need to indicate when it would help someone else understand what we are about to do. If there isn’t anyone nearby then it’s OK no to signal.

Why does the GPS speed reading differ from the car speed reading? 7:47

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 5 ай бұрын

That's because the GPS data is accurate, but the car's speedometer under-reads a little, to allow for the fact tyres get smaller as they wear.

@AdvanceDrivingSchool 10 ай бұрын

Thanks! A rectangular sign is only for our information, rather than an order contained in a round sign. So in this case they suggest 20mph for the next corner - but the national speed limit still applies. In a modern road car 20mph seems unnecessarily slow so we drive a little faster. 👍🏼
