Confession time…I used to be one of those space closers you talk about at 29:50 thinking they were queue jumping, especially if they were at lights where the right lane would turn right at the next lights. I am so ashamed of myself for having that mentality but thankfully I stopped doing that and all of my bad driving habits have all gone since watching your videos, thank you.

Thank you for sort of settling an argument for me at 14:00 - there's absolutely no point getting over from a lane doing 70 just to then have to drop down to 55 in a minute or two then get back out into a free-flowing lane. I've had people tell me that to not do so is "lane hogging" - so presumably they expect everyone in that lane to constantly be merging in and out.....

So heartening to see you drive very much like I do; allowing flow, indicating when required, making allowances for others but also not apprehensive to accelerate to get safely to a different road position. My wife drives exactly the same, irrespective of traffic or road conditions; something I think most folk do.

The commentary, apart from the accent, sounded like my thought process when I'm driving. It sometimes feels like I'm getting up a lot of noses by thinking ahead, keeping distances and going for flow over personal advantage. It's gratifying to see that others drive like it too - some journeys are better than others in that respect. I think 'Share the road' will be my new thing to say as well as 'Make it a non-event'.

Yesterday, I was able to pass first time with 8 driver faults and I just wanted to say a massive thank you for this series. I did my test during the Storm Babet: wind and rain crashing into my car, puddles on the road, other drivers skidding and trying to avoid still water, etc. Your videos on lane discipline, bad weather driving, spacial awareness and city driving helped me tremendously. I only discovered you literally a day before my test and I consumed your content ravenously because I felt your perspective and outlook on driving and safety was so important. I hope you read this because I think finding your videos was one of the most essential resources that helped me pass - I had the skills and the hours of practice, I just needed the right mindset to make sure I was safe, and my examiner felt so too. Thank you.

Really great video, so helpful to have a baseline of judgement to work to. Many years ago my driving instructor told me that its as important to know what's going on behind and it is in front. I believe this couldn't be more true for motorway driving. Being aware of where the traffic is around you and what their intentions are is so important and you demonstrate this really well.

Lumpy cold start is a good way of describing the ST, it’s a lovely car to drive once warmed up but it’s awful for the first 5-10 minutes. I’ve read that some modern performance cars have to run rich to warm up the catalytic converter quickly to make sure they pass emissions tests.

The golf he had ran lean. Too much fuel can cool the exhaust gas, like a sooty fire. The golf pumps extra air in to make it run hot on high idle for about two minutes. I don't have a clue what way Ford map their cold starts. Perhaps, they're running normal air, against normal fuel, which with a cold intercooler keeps exhaust temps lower for longer. That's my tuppence'orth as a guess.

Great video and very well explained, listening to you is like listening to myself driving, right down to the things that annoy you. Two big things a lot of people miss, one you don't drive 20ft in front of your vehicle, you drive 1/2 mile or more if visible ahead and plan accordingly. Two driving isn't a solo thing, it is a team game, plan not only for your own progress but also that of other drivers. Traffic coming on at slip roads is a prime example, yes they have to give way, but traffic on the motorway also has to leave gaps big enough for them to merge into for flow to work. The same applies to traffic joining, leave a gap between you and the vehicle in front on the slip road don't try to get into the same small gap as them merge in behind the vehicle they have joined in front of. It makes life so much easier and fairer for everyone.

Ash, I just wanted to express my deep appreciation for this series and the multiple videos you’ve made that create a safe and healthy driver mindset. I think if you were to categorise all the techniques under two headings they’d be “make it a non-event” and “work for best flow.” The application of such doesn’t create a dependency on others to fix the mistakes, we can deal with the bad decisions that poor road users make. If everyone could apply this mindset there would be zero conflict on the road. Keep up the good work pal, it’s gold dust!

That situation and commentary at 6:17 goes hand in hand with one of your recent videos regarding waiting for both lanes to be clear before emerging from a side road (the video itself I believe was more with roundabouts) If you see the vehicle early enough and move to lane 2 you are signaling to the emerging driver it is OK from your perspective to emerge. However, different to motorways, if there are vehicles in lane 2 already behind you you _could_ be signalling to them you intend to turn right up the road so they could end up moving to lane 1 and get caught out with the emerging vehicle 👍

Thank you for confirming what I generally do in that sort of roundabout scenerio. As you eluded to, it confirms to others around me that I am indeed going to do the correct thing and removes any doubt that I may be in the incorrect lane and might do a last second cut across lanes.

That straddle position at 5:40 I use all the time near me and it is true, it communicates your intentions to those behind. If you move fully right then quite often the driver behind will try to dive up the nearside at the earliest opportunity but straddling they will hang back and know you want the left lane as well I use the straddle position to turn a very tight left as well (very rare these days) as it stops the overtakers blocking the turn and prevents those from undertaking

At around 4:46 re "No need to signal. It's a given you should come back in". That's very very true. The way I see it though is that other drivers don't know that you're going to do the correct and "given" thing of moving back in, or indeed when you're going to do it. Of course, if there is a side road to the left around the time you'd move back in, then yes, I wouldn't signal as there is a risk of misunderstanding. Or, I might delay my move back to the left till after the side road to the left, especially if someone is waiting to come out of it. In fact, Ashley had a video on this some time ago.

I think (occasionally 🤨) that a lot of drivers can’t keep to their lane is because they are driving too quickly, so can’t steer correctly to stay in lane.

Good video this. I am of that generation who just missed out on spiral roundabouts. In the neighbouring town they put a simple 2 lane roundabout in an old junction……then they changed it to a spiral-tho a small one. Specific lanes going to specific locations. Had to re learn it. There’s a fairly big one at Swindon that I use a lot….the Coate water roundabout. That’s actually quite a sensible one. Imo the prob is that with a traditional 2 lane roundabout, it’s a fixed design wherever you are. Spirals are customised for each environment-so u never quite know what to expect. The focus looks and sounds a bit more refined than the golf on camera.

Great video. I've often wondered if I maybe lane change back to the inside too often but with the "real view" camera, I don't think I'm too far different after all. However, as I'm never in a hurry as I like to plan extra time into every journey, I'm usually trying to conserve fuel (I find it a way to keep me more focussed on the traffic with very familiar trips) so aim to maintain more of a 60-62mph speed and therefore move over in more gaps to allow those driving faster to make progress beyond me (slowing further to 56 behind a HGV if I need to until the next gap comes along)

Lane discipline on motorways is so poor these days. I went to Manchester a few weeks ago M5 & M6 at times i was in lane one doing 70 undertaking vehicles in lane 3 doing 50 to 60 with lane 4 full of vehicles trying to get past. Did any of them realise and move to lane one, absolutely not. They just sat there causing congestion and in some cases sped up to 80 to get past me again only to slow down again resulting in me undertaking again.

I think the thing with signals and advanced driver course is very much making sure a signal makes sense. Coming off the island I wouldn't have indicated because the only option I had was left, if I made a mistake and wanted to try my luck with changing to the right lane, then I would indicate right. However I do agree that sometimes while a signal isn't strictly needed, as long as the driver has done their 'Information' phase of IPSGA, and knows what's around them, then yes, signalling even if not strictly needed is absolutely fine... but it must be done once you know WHO you are signalling too - and I think that when it comes to advanced driving courses they are trying to ensure the information phase is done correctly. Excessive indication is an indication that the drivers situation awareness may be lacking.

Given the confusion most drivers have when using a spiral roundabout, or any roundabout in general, I think a signal is beneficial in this instance as it affirms the intention to take the next exit. Having had many a driver not take the exit for the lane they are in, I will always take no signal to mean the driver has no idea where they are going 👍

I don’t know if you have been on the spiral one at the junction with the A38 and A50. The lanes seem to defy all logic like having two lanes around for one exit to have only one lane physically on the exit. Or from another direction, you need to be in the right hand lane until it suddenly moves you all the way left despite having an exit before the one you want to take. No wonder many get confused by them when they can’t build all of them consistently

That is, where I've observed a vehicle in the next lane coming up to overtake me and I've also observed that there is no other vehicle behind it. In such a case, when the overtaking vehicle has come past me, I know the adjacent lane is clear thereafter via my driver's side mirror.

At around 19:42 re making sure you are not catching up with the lorry ahead of you to your right and ready to swap lanes with it. Exactly what I look out for too. This situation particularly comes up when two motorways merge and you are coming in from the motorway to the left that then becomes a lane addition. In fact I have a pretty good dash cam clip of my own where I did this where the M26 and M20 merge eastbound.

Thank you for an interesting video. It is always a decision or judgement on whether or not to pull back into the left lane. Sometimes there are people that are obsessed with keeping in the left lane as much as possible. What happens is I keep in the middle lane because I can see that I will be shortly be wanting to overtake the slower moving left lane but someone comes speeding up behind me, moves into the left lane, then undertakes me and moves out again. They do this because I aim to keep a reasonable distance between myself and the car in front, so the undertaking car sees the big gap in front of me and decides I should move over and undertakes because I don't.

At around 17:00 the issue I find with these so called spiral roundabouts is that you don't always know if it's going to be a spiral roundabout or just a regular large multi lane roundabout. And the difference is that with the former, the lane that you are in will take you to your intended exit if you just follow that lane whereas with the latter, you will need to move across lanes to the left. If you don't know whether or not it's a spiral roundabout, it can cause issues. A simple solution would be to have signs on each approach road that states "Spiral roundabout", either in words and / or some new road sign symbol.

Many modern cars have a gadget called “lane tracing assist”, or something similar, and they encourage the use of indicators even when not really necessary to others, because it tries to prevent you from changing lane automatically via the steering. One can override it, but it’s uncomfortable so it makes one indicate just to stop it - even though it’s too late for anyone outside the car.@@thomaselliot2257

At around 29:00 good all round observations regarding the status of other traffic signals around you re green man etc. In a manual car this might also have a bearing as to whether to be in neutral or first gear and indeed when to ideally slip into first gear in preparation for your lights to turn green. Can minimise the time you are in first gear with the clutch down. Of course, if you are not sure and are at or near the front of the queue at the lights, then best to remain in first gear and a state of readiness.

Hi Ashley, thank you for yet another good one!. This time at the start you see to woman at the side of the road near that junction and instantly, automatically slow down to asses the situation, then instead of just staring at her to see what she was up to you kept both eyes open on the whole scene and therefore saw the cat. This seems to be very much typical of your driving style and I think is a good example of the sensible way you can integrate rapid response with observation and judgement, this does appear to be related to your skill and experience, but above all the confidence you have acquired from learning to avoid issues. Watching your footage from both cameras after you re-set the 'proper' one it does make a huge difference to the apparent depth of field, however there are still two minor issues, firstly the 'real' camera even when set at 35mm lacks the same peripheral vision your eyes give you that the dash cam does and the crop sensor cameras I use suggest that 24mm is the correct adjustment for the 35 mm which is the closest to perspective on full frame, it would in fact offer a slightly wider field of view!. What intrigues me is just how quickly one can make roughly appropriate allowances when watching dash-cam footage but I don't think I could use it while driving!. The rest of it on that motorway reminds me of two things that I don't much like about those roads, the worst one is the constant demands on my attention in all directions on all mirrors, having to assess the relative speeds of the other vehicles and keep on making appropriate allowances for them. What concerns me most now is that one only has to miss one thing at =the wrong time and so much can go so horribly wrong so quickly!. Seeing just how easily others make mistakes just makes it worse!. Cheers, Richard.

At around 12:34, absolutely correct to stay in the middle lane in preparation for overtaking the lorries up ahead in lane 1. And there was an additional reason for that. Had you moved back to Lane 1, there is a good chance the white van in Lane 3 would have then moved back into Lane 2. Ordinarily that's a good thing for all round lane discipline. However in this case, it would have likely resulted in you getting boxed in to Lane 1 by the white van and having to slow down because you'd now truly caught up with the lorry. Sometimes it's best to "claim your space" in a lane early.

I think I would still have been in lane 3 at this point. Ashley's move from lane 3 to 2 seemed a little premature to me. Whilst the move was well timed with respect to the lorry in lane 1, the gap between Ashely and the 4WD behind was only about a second when he moved over, and the small difference in speed meant that the gap didn't reach 2 seconds until after the bridge. I accept that staying in lane 3 might antagonise the van driver and risk an undertake, but at that point this would be a theoretical risk, in contrast to the actual risk of imposing a tailgating situation on the 4WD. The return to lane 2 after overtaking the coach a minute or so later was a near identical situation. Apart from these two points, I'd agree with Ashley's approach and commentary for the whole of this video. Sadly, too few people appreciate the benefits of adequate planning, prediction and the taking of others' perspectives when driving. And many seem to think that motorway driving is so monotonous and requires so little attention that it's okay to drive along in a half-daze, or to divert the larger part of their attention to their phone.

At 10.00 when entering the motorway, you commented that the white car driver was 'very poor'. I completely agree; it was an example of a very common but potentially dangerous habit. By not accelerating enough, they put themself in danger & you in a no-win situation. I know you want to avoid passing on the left but that was far less dangerous than holding behind & keeping the traffic behind both of you at a speed well below that already on the carriageway. The slip roads/acceleration lanes/on ramps or whatever people want to call them are there so you match your speed with vehicles already on the road in order to merge safely. I have never understood why many seem to get to 50 then stop accelerating. This is potentially dangerous. I have got into the habit of taking a quick look at my speedo when I am ready to merge. It usually reads 60-62mph, but I judge my speed by those already on the road.

When there's only been one lane merging on, I've sometimes slowed down _a lot_ to open a gap up to a car like this in front of me and then accelerated back up as I approach the give way. It might annoy any cars behind me, but is much safer than trying to join at 50mph with a car right in front of you who isn't driving well

At around 8:15 re timing your lane changes to best suit traffic flow. Excellent advice. Another way I've always thought of the same principle is "Change lanes when the opportunity presents itself and not necessarily when you would ideally want to". In order to abide by this principle, it may mean changing lanes earlier or indeed later than you would have ideally wanted to. It also means that for a particular manoeuvre on a set stretch of road, the best time to lane change will vary each time according to the individual traffic situation at the time.

Good to see the demonstration of different lens angles, with a comparison between normal eyesight and that of dash cams. It’s often possible to identify certain items on review of our footage that were not noticeable in real time. Part of that is just down to the angle, but also because the whole field of each frame on a dash cam, or the other one, is sharp, whereas in our normal sight it isn’t - our angle of sharp focus is quite narrow, which we get round by scanning around, rather than “staring” at one angle, as it were. In the real world we need to see items that are far enough ahead to be able to deal with at whatever speed. From around 5m in, your comment on no need to signal for such moves suggests that your car did not have a feature called “lane tracing assist (Toyota term)” turned on; many of us tend to use indicators just to communicate with that to avoid it’s interference with manual steering. They can be turned off, but they are useful for motorway trips and the like. My only comment about lane discipline is that in areas with “variable speed limit indicators (VSLI)”, although the HoC is a bit mealy mouthed about it, one is permitted to pass on either side, and to avoid unnecessary lane changes, partly to reduce the risks, and also to maximise traffic flow when it’s busy. Thus it’s essential to look at both sides before changing lane, and not assume that something to the left will stay behind.

Fantastic video Ashley, we seem to have a similar thought process when driving on dual carriageways. I do have a controversial opinion though, I need to be clear that it's not something I do but, I think that if you're at the speed limit there should be no requirement to move back to the left lane when it's "busy." The reason I think this is not to stop people from speeding - I'm not trying to police the roads neither do I want to. It's because the most hazardous thing we do on dual carriaways is a lane change, having rules that lead to continuous lane changing increases risk and overall probably reduces traffic flow from all the accidents and tail backs it leads to.
@wirdy1
@wirdy1 9 ай бұрын
I've thought about your comment & tend to agree, although it depends on how 'busy'. If changing lanes will cause another vehicle to do anything other than as if you hadn't made the manoeuvre, then stay in your lane at the speed limit. If there is somebody behind who is desperate to get past to break the speed limit, they might well be a higher risk to you than doing a lane change & gently slowing, before returning to the outer lane after they've passed.

I'm not talking about staying in the middle lane at 60mph when not overtaking and it's quiet, I think this is why many people hate the idea of staying in lane. But if you're at the speed of the flow of traffic, even if you're not overtaking, if it's busy staying in lane is safer than constantly changing lane.

on the "always indicate v. only indicate when necessary" debate.

You could look into setting up an overlay for your cameras with lines like most backup cameras have. A simple graph that you could draw in Paint if you had to and throw over the camera feed in your editing software, would require calibration for every camera but it might be well worth it to illustrate your point further. Right now the bottom left just looks like a cropped view to me, it doesn't really 'click', but if there was a line at 5 meters, another at 10, another at 15 and another at 20 for each camera (going from red to green the further away they are from the car) that would link together each view nicely. Same with the rear camera, which I guess is a tad less important here, but that would also make it clear how close people behind you are.

So many drivers don't understand this, as witnessed by the bullying from behind. No doubt these are the same drivers that also cut in too early when they themselves overtake. Whenever that happens I immediately wonder if they are going to brake check me. I've also had a windscreen chip as a result of someone moving back too early. It can also reduce your visibility until you let the gap grow. And if the road is wet, you get showered by their spray. All of this is totally unnecessary and so easily avoidable.

Typically, yes but sometimes no. But you have to be careful with GPS for two reasons: (1) poor implementations - you can be pretty sure that the GPS in something like a dashcam uses the cheapest, least capable parts, (2) signal quality - if you're getting terrible satellite reception, multipath reflections and all the other things that can bedevil GPS you probably won't know it. Only if you've got a receiver that shows you PDOP, HDOP, CNo and other signal quality indicators can you be _sure_ whether your GPS is currently telling you the whole truth. There's a reason that the GPS receivers used by surveyors cost thousands of pounds and require training to use properly - you can't expect the same accuracy from things that are 10s of pounds.
