First time driving on the motorway can be a scary thing to do. In todays video I am helping Demi with her first motorway driving lesson. There will be lots of motorway tips for new drivers in this video so be sure to watch it to the end. We will be working on entering and exiting the motorway from slip roads(deceleration lanes and acceleration lanes). Looking at the difference between slips roads on junctions to enter a motorway compared to slip roads at service stations.
Whilst on the Motorway we will be working and talking about the smart motorway system(what is good and bad about them). We will also be looking to overtake slow moving HGV's when it is safe to do so. Hope you find this video useful on motorway driving in the UK.

When you are recently past I think the best plan is to cruise at 60 mph. You can speed up or slow down to adjust your position along the carriageway or speed up and move out if necessary. Not all these options are available if you cruise at 70 mph.

Every time I’m on the motorway, there’s always two slower moving vehicle, one in the left lane and one in the middle…at least there’s a right lane to overtake but they seem to indicate and pull out without mirror checking

It is a pain when two HGV's take up the first two lanes.

Quick question : Can a PDI teach motorway driving to a recently passed student who has a full uk driving licence in a car with no dual controls?

@JamesTravis 8 ай бұрын

Yes they can because they are allowed on the motorway with anyone once they have passed.

I’m only frustrated at myself and my theory is going in November Do you think it is possible i would find driving test in London by November?😊 i am annoyed because in London so many roads are 20 and some are 30, as we know. i failed for doing a 20 in a 30 when road was 20 earlier, so the 30 sign was on the floor and i stopped at traffic light where the 30 sign written on floor was so i missed this completely. Do you think this was a unfair fault? Why did i miss this? i was looking far ahead as possible 😅 Also, for some reason for someone who has over 60 hours of driving lessons the examiner guy touched steering wheel Why? What was the point? And that was my other fault After he say i need many more lessons in steering Why? What is the point in touching the steering wheel? What is the point in making me wait MANY months for a driving test? I lost a lot of confidence in my driving and my steering now 😢 I wasn’t going to hit the curve, surely for somebody who has many lessons and waited patiently for a test To fail the way i did was stupid i affected me a lot in my mental health as you can tell And i felt dumb for failing simply feels the examiner didn’t want to pass me You know ? i failed in July The DVSA do nothing about anything A massive thank you to you for the video Simply feels as i let myself down as this wasn’t my first driving test either. The key is to take your time when driving yes😊 Specially at junctions. And plenty of observations :) Apologies if i seem rude i am stressed. i do recommend learners to check out your videos on here

The DVSA released an email on Friday of last week. Saying they are going to release driving tests (150000) for October and November on the booking system from Monday 2nd October onwards. They will release tests every few days. Just keep looking

Must I necessarily get to 70 if I’m on the first lane for a long time on the motorway

@JamesTravis 7 ай бұрын

If the traffic is flowing then you would ideally want to be driving at 60 to 63mph. Any slower and you would get all the HGV’s overtaking you and pulling back in.
