I been watching your videos consistently since learning to drive, I can admit I used to be frustrated back when looking into the comments seeing it full with people telling their passed but now after passing my test this afternoon with two minors, I can really understand the amount of happiness and why people want to express it. The freedom received is hard to take in. This channel including the Ultimate driving course has helped me significantly and I am happy to be part of the alumni!
My son clipped a kerb very early on in his test. He anxiously asked the examiner if that was an automatic fail. The examiner confirmed that it was. Nevertheless, my son completed the test with a good attitude and with no further faults. He re-applied, and passed the next time. It's not the end of the world.
@@bond0666 I'm just going by what my son said. Having a quick look around the Internet I found this quote on a driving instructor's website - "Many learners have hit the kerb and passed their driving tests and many have hit the kerb and failed. This is why it’s such a debate on forums and between friends who have had different experiences." It sounds like it's examiner's discretion at work here.
Don’t beat yourself up Jenny, you can easily tweak a few things, it doesn’t matter the length of time it takes for you to learn, 10 hours or 500 hours as long as you are safe on the road it doesn’t matter.
Yeah, exactly what I was saying. Her observations are much better than most learners that I've watched on here for like the last month and she seems generally confident. Just a bit of nerves and being unfamiliar with this car messed up perhaps
Bless her, she'll get there in no time. Must admit, I wish this sort of mock test was available when I was learning. My worst thing was roundabouts and it would of been so good to to practice them under "exam conditions". You provide vital feedback for these kids and I'm in no doubt that they become better drivers for it. Respect lad.
My instructor put me through several of them before my test. They definitely helped. Edited to add, he said he would mark me more strictly than the test would, so if I could pass his, I could easily pass the real thing, and it worked.
Bless her? No time? She has had 80 hours, that is gross ineptitude at best and very dangerous at worst to have such naturally unaware people driving that somehow manage to pass a test.
My Brother-in-Law, a high flying Lawyer that travels the world to deliver lectures, could not pass his test. He stopped telling everyone he was taking another test after his seventh fail. Many years later, he passed. He refuses to this day to tell us how many tests he took. So there is always hope!
I failed first time too, so I understand the frustration of struggling even after many hours of learning. Having said that I passed 2nd time last month with 2 minors, so work hard and don’t give up!!
Yay, I’m finally part of the pass club! I passed today, first time, with 4 minors, so happy but I’m shock! I can finally sit back and enjoy these videos!!!
@@beautywithemma7029 thank you so much!! This is gonna sound so weird, but have a banana or 2 an hour before your test, it naturally calms anxiety. Try be confident (even if you don’t feel it) and take each part as it comes, don’t think about the whole test, just what’s coming up etc & don’t forget mirrors!! Good luck my lovely! You’ve got this 😊❤
@@beautywithemma7029 Personally I asked for extra lesson to cover things I wasn't comfortable with. At one point during the lessons I just felt the driving clicked and it made the test quite relaxing -- for me the examiner was clear with even suggesting lanes for forward planning which made it a breeze. At the end of the day if you are ready, the examiners are not trying to fail you, if anything your route will be easier than mock tests you may have done (or that was the case for me). Good luck!
Hi Jenny. I have autism and I’ve been learning to drive for over a year now. It’s difficult and being nervous can just make you mess up. It doesn’t matter how long it takes to learn just that you’re trying.
Me too. Took me 3 times. A bad examiner for the 2nd but I consider myself to be good. Better than most the idiots in the road trying to kill me anyway.
I'm putting so many stickers on my car just to let them know that I'm an anxious really bad driver but unfortunately I have to drive or I can't get to work
Jenny (or Jennie, however her name is spelt) seems like a sweet soul. You can see she put in a lot of hours into driving and really has that hunger to pass. I really hope she does! Jenny (sorry if I'm spelling your name wrong), If you're reading this then I hope you pass soon! Keep going and stay grinding! ☺️💪🏽
Thank you for all the vids Pin, took my first test yesterday afternoon and passed with no minors! Seeing all the mistakes made in a mock test really helped me know what to avoid on the test itself and so happy I can finally drive by myself! 🙃
Stalling is one of the most natural mistakes even experienced drivers do and in most cases it isn't even a serious mistake as long as you react well. Easy fix, just make sure you're in the correct gear, give enough gas and hold the bite. The learner seems a good driver just a few little blips. Easily fixed.
As an American, I love seeing how seriously the training for driving is taken. Most of my education on driving came from a crash course in my sophomore year of highschool in my PE class. None of my education went into caring for my car, maintenance, etc. They literally just passed out a workbook and told us to start practicing. The amount of anxiety I felt when my dad told me to just drive to school the first time I was behind the wheel ( i refused sine I wanted to practice in a parking lot) was insurmountable. All of this is to ultimately say, I 'm not a perfect driver, but the amount of illegal driving activity I see daily living in the USA is horrifying. And it's everywhere within my local county and outside fo it on the highway. I really hope some officials take notice and begin putting heavier restrictions and expectations on training new drivers. I've seen enough to even push for the age limit to be raised form 15/16 to 18-20. Unfortunately, our infrastructure isn't quite there yet to make this a reality.
I'm in a driving school currently and it's made me hyper aware of the rules of the road, thanks to my instructor. Holy shit do US drivers just do whatever they want.
@@anima6035 It's pretty standard in a lot of high schools state side, but as the OP said - it's not lessons the way we learn in Ireland/UK/Europe, and from my experience in the states - some drivers could do with the way we learn, but each to their own, it would be a monstrous task to overhaul it in the states, they would have to implement changes in increments rather that trying to stop the current way and start a whole new method.
You should come to India and take a look, I was offered to get a drivers license without taking any test. Of course I refused since the test i honestly not that hard but holy shit was I not tempted to do that. I have my test in a month, I hope I pass it in the first try.
As an American in Spain I can confirm its way easier in the US... there's a really easy theoretical exam a 5 hour course which is usually a video for the most part and and then between 5-10 hours of lessons you're probably ready to take the test. In Spain I needed around 30 hours of lessons after studying like crazy for the theoretical exam. And I failed the first time. Not to say everyone drives perfectly in Europe but people generally follow the rules on the road
From a female point of view, I see a lot of us pushing our seat quite far forward, driving with very bent arms. Its harder to get a feel for the whole size of the car being so close to the steering wheel, try letting your seat back a few inches. This man is a perfect driving instructor, calm and informative without making people feel stupid, patience of a Saint.
Tbh I normally put my seat right in so i feel like i am above the car and higher then it. Where i am not hitting the wheel but not having to feel like i have to stretch for the pedals
After 10 hours of lessons and watching these CZcams videos really helped with the extra safety and driving tips helped a lot, I did about 20 hours in my own car. My instructor was excellent taught me everything needed other than the show me tell me which I learned via other videos (still failed one in my test) it was overall great. Thanks a lot for these videos very useful. Passed with 3 minors one being the show me tell me
I was told by examiner that his job isn't to see if I am a good driver, but if I'm a safe enough driver to let loose in traffic. You don't need to be perfect, just be safe and drive confidently and defensively (trying to avoid accidents and keep traffic flowing) And that the real learning starts when you get your license. I've been a driver by proffession not for almost 20 years and I still learn some new things from time to time. Like today I learned that, in tight corners with littl' to no viewing angle, they put traffic mirrors up to help you see around the corner. Smart, would be great if people actually used them, which they don't. So even though I can see them coming and they should be able to see me and have to yield to me, don't expect them to actually use that mirror or you'll have them in your driver door (which didn't happen, because I drive very defensively, because I have handicapped people on board)
Great mock test this and unfortunate Jenny managed to get that many serious faults because honestly a lot of learners in some mock test or driving lesson videos I watch could learn a lot from seeing how Jenny did the observations when moving off and reversing here. Some guy said something about probably worth going to an automatic instead, but I see nothing wrong with her control of the car and gears besides forgetting to go into 1st at that roundabout. I've been guilty of that myself on one of my first few refresher lessons recently and going into 3rd rather than 1st or 4th rather than 2nd (for a turn), happens when you're unfamiliar with the gears of the car and then improves. Then had 2 hrs driving on a 50 mile trip and no faults at all with gears besides finding 5th really awkward to get to in my instructor's car, but feels very easy in the cars that I've been looking to buy
Keep practicing, continue doing mock tests. Try not to rush and when you take the test imagine as if you're driving a friend or family member round your area etc.
Awww Jenny u did really well compared to most of the videos I’ve seen of other learner drivers! Just keep practicing and definitely do ur test in a familiar area so u won’t be as nervous! 😊
Her mistakes seemed largely down to nerves. She seems like a good observant driver otherwise. What a sweet girl, it takes a lot of nerve to allow yourself to be scrutinised by the world like this. I hope she passed! I certainly feel confident she will be a good safe driver.
My heart kind of broke for her. She seems like such a lovely person. It’s so horrible when you’re trying so hard and are so nervous. I passed my test yesterday. I did a few hours in a manual and thought ‘F that’ and learnt in an automatic instead. I enjoyed it from then on 😊 I didn’t find it worth the extra stress 😂 (appreciate some people feel very strongly it is only ‘real’ in a manual so not trying to start an argument!)
Manual actually scares me. I know I'd probably get the hang of it but the thought of driving and worrying about the gears and clutch and hills and stalling etc really scares me and makes me not want to drive at all. I know I'd feel less stress in a automatic. I might just go straight to learning in a automatic and see how I feel 🥺 seeing people learn in automatics makes me feel better aswell as it worries me of people saying it's "lazy" or not proper driving. But I think it don't matter what you learn in. Aslong as you are safe on the road and automatic seems much safer for me.
@@nhiggs34 do what you feel comfortable with and don’t listen to others. If we were American we’d never consider driving a manual so just because more people do in England doesn’t mean it’s done everywhere, that made me feel better! I don’t think I’d have learnt at all in a manual it’s just not for me, but I really enjoyed driving in automatic (well still scary at some point of course) but I don’t regret it 😊 good luck whatever you decide!
@@matthewstyles37 thank you! Definitely makes me feel alot better. Plus I know it's not for a few years yet still but it seems like more cars ARE becoming automatic. I know if you just do a test In a automatic you can't drive a manual but that really doesn't bother me 🙈 I just wanna feel at ease when driving. Even as a passenger it worries me and ME being in control of a car. It's all about being safe while driving not what you drive 🥺
@@nhiggs34 I enjoy manual but looking in future for a automatic as I sometimes do long car journeys and it's a pain in arse when in traffic with a manual 😂 id love an automatic but they are so exspensive
Officially part of the Passed my test but still watching😎 honestly I have learnt so much from these videos which I’ve implemented into the lessons and test👌 would highly recommend anyone watch as many of these before your test as you can!!! 🙌
Past on June with 3 minors and still watch these thank u pin couldn’t have done it without your help … even tho my instructor told me to stay off you tube it really does help
Since I started leaning to drive I've been watching your videos. I passed last Wednesday and still love your channel, really enjoy your content, very informative and entertaining.
Passed this Monday (23rd of January) , used to see comments about watching for fun and now I really can! Nerves were very bad before the test but I was very confident in the car and just drove. Got 7 minors (driving too fast on ice, approach roundabouts too fast, awareness) but overall not bad!
Passed my test a couple of days ago with 3 minors. Made most the mistakes in the first 5 minutes, do not fester on your mistakes during the test focus on being a safe driver rather than the best driver and you should be fine. Your nerves will ease trust me.
Oh dear I will say Jenny you're doing amazing. Just take your time when going through the processes and be confident in everything you do. It can be disheartening when learning but honestly you'll get there. I passed second time round yesterday and honestly having confidence in your abilities and being as calm as possible no matter what mistakes you make. You'll get there
What is the big deal of her her doing 80hrs? Did she commit any taboo? Or do they write how many hour she used on the pass certificate? U guys should grow up, what I see in her is a good driver, she drives with so much confidence but need to be more clinical in her driving. We should all behave like adult not babies. Thanks
@@jayross1781there are a lot of “qualified drivers” in the comment section putting their two pence in about how many hours she’s had😂 forgetting that everyone is different
I was late to driving, only really started learning properly in my early 30s. Everything everyone said about driving came true. It's just about being consistent with practice, try to push the limit of what your comfortable with each session and improve upon things you are comfortable with. There's no secret, just gotta get after it. The confidence and good driving habits will come and you'll wonder why it felt so difficult and scary not so long ago.
That’s Exactly what happened to me, one day I got in the car for a lesson and realised I could do everything I was being asked without any trouble. I remember my instructor saying to me “it will all click for you one day, just stay consistent with your lessons” and then boom.. 🎉
I am 22 and got my license today. I had to wait until it was 2 weeks before my permit expired to practice because I didn’t have access to a car. I drove for one week, managed to keep the speed limit and stay in between the lines. I took two days dedicated to parallel parking, on the second day I parallel parked 5 times in a row flawlessly. Went in to my local dmv and aced the test, perfect 18 inches from the curb. I took the test in a 21 ft pickup truck with a hemi engine. I calmed myself down by just chatting with the instructor during the driving, I kept repeating in my head “I am a good driver, just drive strait between the lines, keep two hands on the wheel, and maintain your speed.” Man I’m so relieved to have that out of the way
Remember when I first started watching these videos around 3 years ago to help me out, 3 years later not only have i passed but I've passed my PCV (Bus test) as well and I'm now driving tri-axle Scania coaches.
Passed my test nearly a year ago, would recommend Pins videos to everyone that's having their lessons. Even if you're confident, it helps keep everything fresh.
I passed 6 years ago and binge watch DGN and Clearview and a few others lol because I'm getting back into driving after not doing much in over 3 years but I'm a safe driver. It's just roundabouts and never driven a motorway that worry me most but I've had some refresher lessons and may have more or get a family member to be passenger once I have another car
I watched some of these videos whilst I was learning to drive, it made me focus to much on the faults and my instructor told me to trust myself and that I had the knowledge, I passed first time no minors 😁 Passing you're Test is an Amazing feeling of accomplishment. Trust yourself
She’s a good driver and has confidence and lacks high self awareness. I think the only issue was comfortability and getting used to this car which is a REAL THING especially when being recorded. She’ll do great and pass :) !
@@therealist2000 I agree with your comment, dunno why the guy's calling you AI or a bot lol. Getting the gears mixed up and messing up distance from the kerb is probably down to being unfamiliar with the car but could have been avoided but easily fixable in the future when she gets a different car after passing etc. Her observations were very very good when moving off for example. A lot of people don't do all that
Watching this videos before passing and after passing is completely different ,such a relief u feel when u hear tht u pass nd all tht fear and efforts are worthy ,I wish best luck for everyone want t take the test nd thr best advice I can give is dont panic nd dont think abt wht examiner is doing .in the end I massively thank pin for his videos which helped to be a wise driver nd pick good habit of watching mirrors before even I start my first crse of driving .
Good luck, take your time and make sure you tell your examiner what you need to practise on and don’t let mistakes put you off and you will ace your test..
@@scuffy-osu727 the nerves settle mine did, still got nervous when I was in the front of a que I was so scared to stall but your instructor will/should be reassuring and you’ll get better through confidence 👌🤞
I failed my first test simply because i was going 3km over the limit when going around a roundabout. The instructor put it as a major fault even though i had no more minors or majors. Its so easy to fail
@@jamesl5203 Yeah but it was from where she was looking. We all know it looks like youre doing more than you are from the passanger seat. Going down to 30 is already incredibly slow, let alone slower than that.
Props for learning stick shift. It takes some time to really get the muscle memory / engine cues. A lot more to think about for a new driver. Especially when your stopped uphill and trying not to stall out and also roll backwards. Just keep practicing
Building up speed when you should be slowing down often happens if you have just made a mistake and you are annoyed with yourself for making it and thinking of that instead of concentrating on driving.
She is not far from passing. She has good awareness using her mirrors well. I think she should concentrate on positioning the car better, which will give her more time to make the right decision.
Sat up until 2am freaking out because my driving test is today. Watched several of your videos. I've had about 20 hours of lessons recently. Pleased to sat the videos helped and I passed 1st time. Also somehow passed with 0 minors aswell
Jenny has good footwork on the peddles, I notice she looks down at the gear stick when she changes gear, maybe a little more practice on changing without looking could help.
I hope Jenny was positive from your fair feedback and passed first time or (like me) second time (with more positive experienced driving). Those who pass second time are in my opinion safer than the boy racers who pass first time, then ignore the good advice they have received in such a short time. In my case we are talking about a second test in 1971 while I was in sixth form, before either of you were born, and long before computers, mobile phones or SATNAVs had even been invented or at least widely available to the general public! Happy to say I am still driving today, post cataract ops in both eyes, and still watching videos like this and others to ensure that my skills remain up to date for the modern world!
In Britain, they are a lot more strict. Driving tests take ~30-40 mins on normal roads in regular live traffic. They won’t pass you till you are a reasonably good, normal driver with no serious errors. Watched a video with someone from the US with 2 years driving experience failed mock British driving test with over 20 serious mistakes, when he thought he passed easily.
I had a lot of lessons too probably close, but my instructor was terrible, and wouldn't let me take the test with his car. I switched instructor, did maybe 6 lessons and passed first time. It's not always the students fault
Can someone answer this, in the UK can u book the test straight after u pass the theory, cus in Ireland u have to do 12 lessons with a driving instructor before you can book yours
Get a car with a rear view camera. My god its so easy to park and stops your neck from hurting. You do get some funny looks though when staring at your dashboard while reversing.
Thank you Pin for your videos, they really helped me with learning to drive and i just passed this morning with 2 minors for stalling! Edit: If anyone wondering i also had 19 hours of lessons before my test day, with a bit of practice in my dads automatic in between (passed in manual)
Would be interesting doing this with people who passed and been driving a while. See how complacent they have gotten and how much they forgot. For one I had no idea on the mm for tiers and I have a full licence
Anyone driving for more than a year will absolutely fail their test if they retried it, they won’t check every blind spot probably within weeks of passing their test, when to indicate will become closer to when your want to turn, almost everyone sits to close to the traffic in front of them, most people cannot parallel park to save their lives and il admit at times I’m one of them 😂
She is a sweet soul, good luck Jenny 🥰 I was in similar position to you but with the help of instructer, watching these vides and of course the ULTIMATE DRIVING COURSE (Thanks Pin!!) I managed to pass second time with 3 minors this Monday 🥳
I failed my test on the very last corner not indicating as I was exiting a roundabout, I was 15 seconds away from being back to the testing branch. I reapplied for the test instantly and passed it 5 days later. Moral of the story is don't let it discourage you, just keep going you'll get there. And don't rush to pass. It's better to make sure you're a competent driver first. Be honest with yourself and address the reasons you're failing rather than rushing to have a license
6:02 i actually managed to move off in third gear once. didnt realize it was third at first but worked out. just have to be insanely careful and apply more gas but you can do it. not saying you should as this fucks up the clutch.
Decent driver, but probably worth going to automatic tbh! No point stressing and focusing on all the gears and clutch etc. when you've had to have this number of lessons for a manual - save yourself the hassle and money 👍
@@adamek9750 yeah it's just that it takes you away from concentrating on everything else, so should allow her to focus more on general awareness / the road
@@LiamHamilton. unfortunately in the UK there's not enough automatics on the road so you're really limited. if you check autotrader & filter by automatic only it's not looking good.
@@LiamHamilton. She can do it, I have faith in her.. just takes time I guess, and everyone learns at different speeds plus it's beneficial for multiple reasons to be able to drive a manual right, at least when she passes Manual she can then have the option of going Automatic one day to make the everyday journey etc a bit easier. If we all take the easier option then we basically are limited to Automatic which I don't think would be great If you want to drive various vehicles etc for a living? suppose it is okay If you just want to drive for your own personal enjoyment but anything else.. anyway let's hope those of us who have not passed pass one day and Thank you for the videos, and she has a good atitude towards it all, she can do well, everyone makes mistake from time to time, but one day we will become really good drivers, and have you seen some people who are already on the road but drive like maniacs? least we know safe driving is for life.
I got a wieredo on my driving test, when he asked me to pull up at the safest place i pulled into a carpark as i was on a dual carrage way 60mph. He was funny about that. Like fk am i pulling up on the side of a dual carrage was he having a laugh. For anyone who is taking their lessons/test, dont panic if you make a mistake it will get to you for the rest of test brush it off and continue. I have been driving for 9 years and i bet i wouldnt pass my test again. Its not realy about the learning to drive its adapting your brain to think sharper and quicker when it comes anticipating hazzards, planning your way ahead as your not used to doing this at a faster pace. We was all learners like yourself so dont feel pressured to speed up for anyone or give them prioty because the learners are prioty not the experienced drivers. Just relax you got this 👍.
At 9:00, after stalling, when exiting the roundabout, did she cut across from right to left lane on the exit ? To me, she is in the Right lane on the roundabout, which becomes a right rurn lane for A4039. She then proceeds to indicate and proceed to use the exit on to A4063 and proceeds to cut directly across to the far left lane. Now to me, I was always taught, exit the roundabout in the lane you entered it, on the right hand side, she should have exited using the RIGHT of the two lanes on to A4063, and once exited the Roundabout, Indicate, check mirror and blind spots, and move left. Cutting across directing lanes on a roundabout, is a No No.
While learning we all make a few mistakes and doubt a bit too much at times. Her driving seemed really good and I’m sure she’s gonna be a great driver once she gets her drivers license
Done a intensive driving course a few months ago. Getting promised a test at the end. In the package I had 4 days of driving 9-2 and the theory test and paid 1600. After waiting 3/4 months for a test I found a cancellation and booked it myself. Found a instructor and done 2 lessons with him. Passed first time with 2 minors. 😊 Any learners out there don’t do a intensive course it ain’t worth it 😊
One of the most common problems I see students having in these videos is gear selection. Some of the problem is that this is an unfamiliar car, so perhaps they should practice the gear positions before moving off.
During my first driving test (in the Netherlands) I almost hit a couple of pedestrians who were crossing the road. I hadn't noticed them, so my examiner had to hit the breaks. He did let me continue, but I knew I had already failed. The rest of the test went really well. This happened in only the second corner, within 30 seconds of me starting the test.
@@F1r3Foxxxy+ Couldn't care less about hate comments. They're probably jealous about me passing the test and having a license now. Just drove with my parents car and oh boy driving an automatic is easy.
I hope youve passed your test drive safe and the instructor on the other hand should make eye contact and it clearly shows he doeant give a shit about how much you are paying him for lessons.
I recently passed the driving test and I just bulls*tted my way through I hit the curb on a somewhat uneven road while turning and just threw out a quick comment about the holes in the road being annoying to drive over, 20 minutes later I passed a pedestrian crossing with a pedestrian waiting (she was out of sight for me because of an illegally parked car but if I slammed the breaks I could have waited for her. No car was behind me.) so I pointed to the other side of the road and asked a random question to divert the attention of my instructor. 10/10 would not pass again
Holy crap, driving instructors are strict as hell over there. Its like you have to be PERFECT to pass the damn thing. This is just insane. I bet this instructor guy has even made mistakes while driving.
You don't have to be perfect at all lmao, you can get a lot of minor faults. Just don't get a serious and you're golden. One of the lowest accident rates in the world for a reason.
i think this isnt the official test so itd make sense why hed want to be more picky and strict because than she can reflect on all the mistakes and know what the instructor is going to look for on the real test
85 hours of practice!? god bless her!! i wonder if she has a learning difficulty or something. it's good to know these things so that we can be more understanding and compassionate of some people on the road.
I been watching your videos consistently since learning to drive, I can admit I used to be frustrated back when looking into the comments seeing it full with people telling their passed but now after passing my test this afternoon with two minors, I can really understand the amount of happiness and why people want to express it. The freedom received is hard to take in. This channel including the Ultimate driving course has helped me significantly and I am happy to be part of the alumni!
Congratulations on passing!! I have my test coming up soon so when I see these comments they inspire me too :)
Welcome to the DGN Alumni.
You obviously had to include the Ultimate Driving Course' sentence just so that Pin could 'Love' your comment. Cheeky eh? 😏🤣🤣🤣
it's good to read those because a lot of people can do it. congrats! 🎉
Yay. Congratulations. Welcome to the club 😃🙋🏽♀️
My son clipped a kerb very early on in his test. He anxiously asked the examiner if that was an automatic fail. The examiner confirmed that it was. Nevertheless, my son completed the test with a good attitude and with no further faults. He re-applied, and passed the next time. It's not the end of the world.
Fail from just clipping a kerb that’s harsh
Why continue?
@@leonrussell9607 because they give you good insights on where to practise
Clipping a curb is not instant fail,
@@bond0666 I'm just going by what my son said. Having a quick look around the Internet I found this quote on a driving instructor's website - "Many learners have hit the kerb and passed their driving tests and many have hit the kerb and failed. This is why it’s such a debate on forums and between friends who have had different experiences." It sounds like it's examiner's discretion at work here.
Don’t beat yourself up Jenny, you can easily tweak a few things, it doesn’t matter the length of time it takes for you to learn, 10 hours or 500 hours as long as you are safe on the road it doesn’t matter.
Yeah, exactly what I was saying. Her observations are much better than most learners that I've watched on here for like the last month and she seems generally confident. Just a bit of nerves and being unfamiliar with this car messed up perhaps
i aint leanring for 500 hours fck that
@@alehlete830 I hope you think it was an extreme exaggeration
Twerk ? Are you Retarded or something
Matters to her wallet
Congratulations to everyone that has recently passed their test. I remember the feeling it gave me, proper buzzing! ❤️
passed a week ago and I watch these religiously! good luck out there!
Bless her, she'll get there in no time. Must admit, I wish this sort of mock test was available when I was learning. My worst thing was roundabouts and it would of been so good to to practice them under "exam conditions". You provide vital feedback for these kids and I'm in no doubt that they become better drivers for it. Respect lad.
My instructor put me through several of them before my test. They definitely helped. Edited to add, he said he would mark me more strictly than the test would, so if I could pass his, I could easily pass the real thing, and it worked.
Bless her? No time? She has had 80 hours, that is gross ineptitude at best and very dangerous at worst to have such naturally unaware people driving that somehow manage to pass a test.
My Brother-in-Law, a high flying Lawyer that travels the world to deliver lectures, could not pass his test. He stopped telling everyone he was taking another test after his seventh fail. Many years later, he passed. He refuses to this day to tell us how many tests he took. So there is always hope!
I failed first time too, so I understand the frustration of struggling even after many hours of learning. Having said that I passed 2nd time last month with 2 minors, so work hard and don’t give up!!
People who pass second time definitely make better drivers 🙂
@@MsMichaela999 No it just means you're a slower learner lol
Passed my test today with only two minors. Would honestly say your videos helped me so much, I'll keep watching as always!
Thank you for watching the channel and well done on passing your test
She's going to be a good driver. She's very conscious of her mistakes and will definitely correct them.
Yay, I’m finally part of the pass club! I passed today, first time, with 4 minors, so happy but I’m shock!
I can finally sit back and enjoy these videos!!!
Congratulations on passing!! Do you have any advice for passing first time as I have my test coming up and I'm starting to get nervous?
@@beautywithemma7029 thank you so much!!
This is gonna sound so weird, but have a banana or 2 an hour before your test, it naturally calms anxiety.
Try be confident (even if you don’t feel it) and take each part as it comes, don’t think about the whole test, just what’s coming up etc & don’t forget mirrors!!
Good luck my lovely! You’ve got this 😊❤
@@louslife1998 I had one tooooo I passed this Tuesday Congratulationssss for passing
@@beautywithemma7029 Personally I asked for extra lesson to cover things I wasn't comfortable with. At one point during the lessons I just felt the driving clicked and it made the test quite relaxing -- for me the examiner was clear with even suggesting lanes for forward planning which made it a breeze. At the end of the day if you are ready, the examiners are not trying to fail you, if anything your route will be easier than mock tests you may have done (or that was the case for me). Good luck!
@@ruinedmyholiday9394 These videos are too addictive to just stop after the test 😄
Hi Jenny. I have autism and I’ve been learning to drive for over a year now. It’s difficult and being nervous can just make you mess up. It doesn’t matter how long it takes to learn just that you’re trying.
Me too. Took me 3 times. A bad examiner for the 2nd but I consider myself to be good. Better than most the idiots in the road trying to kill me anyway.
@@smash461986 you are too slow
@@mattyy101 meh even with autism myself I passed my drivers test after having dabbed a whole medical 1 gram cart lmao.
I'm putting so many stickers on my car just to let them know that I'm an anxious really bad driver but unfortunately I have to drive or I can't get to work
If it takes you that long then give up. You are unsafe to others.
Jenny (or Jennie, however her name is spelt) seems like a sweet soul. You can see she put in a lot of hours into driving and really has that hunger to pass. I really hope she does! Jenny (sorry if I'm spelling your name wrong), If you're reading this then I hope you pass soon! Keep going and stay grinding! ☺️💪🏽
Thank you for all the vids Pin, took my first test yesterday afternoon and passed with no minors! Seeing all the mistakes made in a mock test really helped me know what to avoid on the test itself and so happy I can finally drive by myself! 🙃
Congratulations ain’t no better feeling when the examiner tell you you’ve passed!
@@takenotice5677 completely agree 😂 the relief is unbelievable
Congratulations on passing your test
Awesome Dan!!...Welcome 2 the Drive Through Club 😂
Stalling is one of the most natural mistakes even experienced drivers do and in most cases it isn't even a serious mistake as long as you react well. Easy fix, just make sure you're in the correct gear, give enough gas and hold the bite.
The learner seems a good driver just a few little blips. Easily fixed.
What is stalling in junction entering t junction it is serious or how to react it . Pass the test if hypothetically happens to other
As an American, I love seeing how seriously the training for driving is taken. Most of my education on driving came from a crash course in my sophomore year of highschool in my PE class. None of my education went into caring for my car, maintenance, etc. They literally just passed out a workbook and told us to start practicing. The amount of anxiety I felt when my dad told me to just drive to school the first time I was behind the wheel ( i refused sine I wanted to practice in a parking lot) was insurmountable. All of this is to ultimately say, I 'm not a perfect driver, but the amount of illegal driving activity I see daily living in the USA is horrifying. And it's everywhere within my local county and outside fo it on the highway. I really hope some officials take notice and begin putting heavier restrictions and expectations on training new drivers. I've seen enough to even push for the age limit to be raised form 15/16 to 18-20. Unfortunately, our infrastructure isn't quite there yet to make this a reality.
I'm in a driving school currently and it's made me hyper aware of the rules of the road, thanks to my instructor. Holy shit do US drivers just do whatever they want.
You drove in PE class?!
@@anima6035 It's pretty standard in a lot of high schools state side, but as the OP said - it's not lessons the way we learn in Ireland/UK/Europe, and from my experience in the states - some drivers could do with the way we learn, but each to their own, it would be a monstrous task to overhaul it in the states, they would have to implement changes in increments rather that trying to stop the current way and start a whole new method.
You should come to India and take a look, I was offered to get a drivers license without taking any test. Of course I refused since the test i honestly not that hard but holy shit was I not tempted to do that. I have my test in a month, I hope I pass it in the first try.
As an American in Spain I can confirm its way easier in the US... there's a really easy theoretical exam a 5 hour course which is usually a video for the most part and and then between 5-10 hours of lessons you're probably ready to take the test. In Spain I needed around 30 hours of lessons after studying like crazy for the theoretical exam. And I failed the first time. Not to say everyone drives perfectly in Europe but people generally follow the rules on the road
You will get there Jenny! I believe in you 🥰 hope the next test goes well for you and you’re out on the roads soon 🚗
From a female point of view, I see a lot of us pushing our seat quite far forward, driving with very bent arms. Its harder to get a feel for the whole size of the car being so close to the steering wheel, try letting your seat back a few inches. This man is a perfect driving instructor, calm and informative without making people feel stupid, patience of a Saint.
That's a good observation I've never considered that but that's actually true come to think of it 😯 good tip 👍
That is what I do
Tbh I normally put my seat right in so i feel like i am above the car and higher then it. Where i am not hitting the wheel but not having to feel like i have to stretch for the pedals
@@cheegan I couldn't reverse park for the life of me until I put my seat back a bit, it does help.
your arms arent ment to be straight out.
After 10 hours of lessons and watching these CZcams videos really helped with the extra safety and driving tips helped a lot, I did about 20 hours in my own car. My instructor was excellent taught me everything needed other than the show me tell me which I learned via other videos (still failed one in my test) it was overall great. Thanks a lot for these videos very useful. Passed with 3 minors one being the show me tell me
Well done on passing your test
I was told by examiner that his job isn't to see if I am a good driver, but if I'm a safe enough driver to let loose in traffic. You don't need to be perfect, just be safe and drive confidently and defensively (trying to avoid accidents and keep traffic flowing) And that the real learning starts when you get your license. I've been a driver by proffession not for almost 20 years and I still learn some new things from time to time. Like today I learned that, in tight corners with littl' to no viewing angle, they put traffic mirrors up to help you see around the corner. Smart, would be great if people actually used them, which they don't. So even though I can see them coming and they should be able to see me and have to yield to me, don't expect them to actually use that mirror or you'll have them in your driver door (which didn't happen, because I drive very defensively, because I have handicapped people on board)
Handicapped?
Great mock test this and unfortunate Jenny managed to get that many serious faults because honestly a lot of learners in some mock test or driving lesson videos I watch could learn a lot from seeing how Jenny did the observations when moving off and reversing here. Some guy said something about probably worth going to an automatic instead, but I see nothing wrong with her control of the car and gears besides forgetting to go into 1st at that roundabout. I've been guilty of that myself on one of my first few refresher lessons recently and going into 3rd rather than 1st or 4th rather than 2nd (for a turn), happens when you're unfamiliar with the gears of the car and then improves. Then had 2 hrs driving on a 50 mile trip and no faults at all with gears besides finding 5th really awkward to get to in my instructor's car, but feels very easy in the cars that I've been looking to buy
Keep practicing, continue doing mock tests. Try not to rush and when you take the test imagine as if you're driving a friend or family member round your area etc.
Awww Jenny u did really well compared to most of the videos I’ve seen of other learner drivers! Just keep practicing and definitely do ur test in a familiar area so u won’t be as nervous! 😊
not so well for 80 hours
Her mistakes seemed largely down to nerves. She seems like a good observant driver otherwise. What a sweet girl, it takes a lot of nerve to allow yourself to be scrutinised by the world like this. I hope she passed! I certainly feel confident she will be a good safe driver.
My heart kind of broke for her. She seems like such a lovely person.
It’s so horrible when you’re trying so hard and are so nervous.
I passed my test yesterday.
I did a few hours in a manual and thought ‘F that’ and learnt in an automatic instead. I enjoyed it from then on 😊 I didn’t find it worth the extra stress 😂 (appreciate some people feel very strongly it is only ‘real’ in a manual so not trying to start an argument!)
I passed in automatic aswell,didn’t even contemplate learning manual the 2 pedals are enough for me,congratulations btw 🚘🚘🚘🚘🚘
Manual actually scares me. I know I'd probably get the hang of it but the thought of driving and worrying about the gears and clutch and hills and stalling etc really scares me and makes me not want to drive at all. I know I'd feel less stress in a automatic. I might just go straight to learning in a automatic and see how I feel 🥺 seeing people learn in automatics makes me feel better aswell as it worries me of people saying it's "lazy" or not proper driving. But I think it don't matter what you learn in. Aslong as you are safe on the road and automatic seems much safer for me.
@@nhiggs34 do what you feel comfortable with and don’t listen to others. If we were American we’d never consider driving a manual so just because more people do in England doesn’t mean it’s done everywhere, that made me feel better! I don’t think I’d have learnt at all in a manual it’s just not for me, but I really enjoyed driving in automatic (well still scary at some point of course) but I don’t regret it 😊 good luck whatever you decide!
@@matthewstyles37 thank you! Definitely makes me feel alot better. Plus I know it's not for a few years yet still but it seems like more cars ARE becoming automatic. I know if you just do a test In a automatic you can't drive a manual but that really doesn't bother me 🙈 I just wanna feel at ease when driving. Even as a passenger it worries me and ME being in control of a car. It's all about being safe while driving not what you drive 🥺
@@nhiggs34 I enjoy manual but looking in future for a automatic as I sometimes do long car journeys and it's a pain in arse when in traffic with a manual 😂 id love an automatic but they are so exspensive
Jenny is a safe driver and I wish her all the best for her future test!❤️xxx
Officially part of the Passed my test but still watching😎 honestly I have learnt so much from these videos which I’ve implemented into the lessons and test👌 would highly recommend anyone watch as many of these before your test as you can!!! 🙌
Congratulations on passing your exam and Welcome to the DGN Alumni!!
Past on June with 3 minors and still watch these thank u pin couldn’t have done it without your help … even tho my instructor told me to stay off you tube it really does help
Thank you for watching the channel and welcome to the DGN Alumni
Since I started leaning to drive I've been watching your videos. I passed last Wednesday and still love your channel, really enjoy your content, very informative and entertaining.
Well done on passing your test and thank you for still watching
Passed this Monday (23rd of January) , used to see comments about watching for fun and now I really can! Nerves were very bad before the test but I was very confident in the car and just drove. Got 7 minors (driving too fast on ice, approach roundabouts too fast, awareness) but overall not bad!
Well done on passing your test
How many lessons did you do
I passed on the same day, had my test at 2:22PM
Passed my test a couple of days ago with 3 minors. Made most the mistakes in the first 5 minutes, do not fester on your mistakes during the test focus on being a safe driver rather than the best driver and you should be fine. Your nerves will ease trust me.
What were your mistakes?
Well done on passing your test
Oh dear I will say Jenny you're doing amazing. Just take your time when going through the processes and be confident in everything you do. It can be disheartening when learning but honestly you'll get there. I passed second time round yesterday and honestly having confidence in your abilities and being as calm as possible no matter what mistakes you make. You'll get there
What is the big deal of her her doing 80hrs? Did she commit any taboo? Or do they write how many hour she used on the pass certificate? U guys should grow up, what I see in her is a good driver, she drives with so much confidence but need to be more clinical in her driving. We should all behave like adult not babies. Thanks
Behave like adult not babies? What are you on about?
@@jayross1781What are YOU on about?
@@CaptainGrimes1 I don't see anyone behaving like babies here. What a strange comment.
@@jayross1781there are a lot of “qualified drivers” in the comment section putting their two pence in about how many hours she’s had😂 forgetting that everyone is different
I stopped stalling after about 33 hours.
I was late to driving, only really started learning properly in my early 30s. Everything everyone said about driving came true. It's just about being consistent with practice, try to push the limit of what your comfortable with each session and improve upon things you are comfortable with.
There's no secret, just gotta get after it. The confidence and good driving habits will come and you'll wonder why it felt so difficult and scary not so long ago.
You've just described what lessons are mate 👍
That’s Exactly what happened to me, one day I got in the car for a lesson and realised I could do everything I was being asked without any trouble. I remember my instructor saying to me “it will all click for you one day, just stay consistent with your lessons” and then boom.. 🎉
Jenny may be not the best driver (yet) but she (imho) gets top marks for being a decent sport and all round human being and allowing us all to see
She’s young. Practice makes perfect.
I passed first time yesterday and your videos were very helpful, thank you:)
I'm glad the videos helped and well done on passing your test
I am 22 and got my license today. I had to wait until it was 2 weeks before my permit expired to practice because I didn’t have access to a car. I drove for one week, managed to keep the speed limit and stay in between the lines. I took two days dedicated to parallel parking, on the second day I parallel parked 5 times in a row flawlessly. Went in to my local dmv and aced the test, perfect 18 inches from the curb. I took the test in a 21 ft pickup truck with a hemi engine. I calmed myself down by just chatting with the instructor during the driving, I kept repeating in my head “I am a good driver, just drive strait between the lines, keep two hands on the wheel, and maintain your speed.” Man I’m so relieved to have that out of the way
Remember when I first started watching these videos around 3 years ago to help me out, 3 years later not only have i passed but I've passed my PCV (Bus test) as well and I'm now driving tri-axle Scania coaches.
Congratulations and thank you for watching the channel
Passed my test nearly a year ago, would recommend Pins videos to everyone that's having their lessons. Even if you're confident, it helps keep everything fresh.
I passed 6 years ago and binge watch DGN and Clearview and a few others lol because I'm getting back into driving after not doing much in over 3 years but I'm a safe driver. It's just roundabouts and never driven a motorway that worry me most but I've had some refresher lessons and may have more or get a family member to be passenger once I have another car
Thank you both for watching the channel.
Jenny you are my sister in spirit. I tend to sabotage myself with nerves as well. I have no clue how I'll do.
I watched some of these videos whilst I was learning to drive, it made me focus to much on the faults and my instructor told me to trust myself and that I had the knowledge, I passed first time no minors 😁 Passing you're Test is an Amazing feeling of accomplishment. Trust yourself
Well done on passing your test
@@DGNDriving Thanks 😊
She’s a good driver and has confidence and lacks high self awareness. I think the only issue was comfortability and getting used to this car which is a REAL THING especially when being recorded.
She’ll do great and pass :) !
You didn't even watch the full video. Artificial intelligence comment spotted
@@sharepremium8614 I skipped certain parts, relax
@@therealist2000 I agree with your comment, dunno why the guy's calling you AI or a bot lol. Getting the gears mixed up and messing up distance from the kerb is probably down to being unfamiliar with the car but could have been avoided but easily fixable in the future when she gets a different car after passing etc. Her observations were very very good when moving off for example. A lot of people don't do all that
@@therealist2000 it's just because those types of comments are found in all of his videos nowadays. It's weird.
This video reminded me how hard it is as a learner driver . I hope Jenny passes her test soon .
Well roads markers were fucking horrendous tbh
Watching this videos before passing and after passing is completely different ,such a relief u feel when u hear tht u pass nd all tht fear and efforts are worthy ,I wish best luck for everyone want t take the test nd thr best advice I can give is dont panic nd dont think abt wht examiner is doing .in the end I massively thank pin for his videos which helped to be a wise driver nd pick good habit of watching mirrors before even I start my first crse of driving .
Welcome to the DGN Alumni
@@DGNDriving thanks👍👍
Whats most worrying is how she constantly takes her hands off the steering wheel etc and just doesn't know what to do next, you can see the panic.
I've just started my lessons and I wanna ace my test first try, so thank you for these videos! they are super helpful
Good luck, take your time and make sure you tell your examiner what you need to practise on and don’t let mistakes put you off and you will ace your test..
@@takenotice5677 thank you! I feel like if anything will ruin me its nerves so imma just bounce on in like a taxi driver lmao
@@scuffy-osu727 the nerves settle mine did, still got nervous when I was in the front of a que I was so scared to stall but your instructor will/should be reassuring and you’ll get better through confidence 👌🤞
Welcome to the channel
@@scuffy-osu727 Imagine you're driving someone extremely important like a head of state or the president
Test these days is a nightmare, well done Jenny, nothing to worry about
I failed my first test simply because i was going 3km over the limit when going around a roundabout. The instructor put it as a major fault even though i had no more minors or majors. Its so easy to fail
Going over the speed limit is illegal so obviously you failed...
@@jamesl5203 Yeah but it was from where she was looking. We all know it looks like youre doing more than you are from the passanger seat. Going down to 30 is already incredibly slow, let alone slower than that.
Props for learning stick shift. It takes some time to really get the muscle memory / engine cues. A lot more to think about for a new driver. Especially when your stopped uphill and trying not to stall out and also roll backwards. Just keep practicing
Building up speed when you should be slowing down often happens if you have just made a mistake and you are annoyed with yourself for making it and thinking of that instead of concentrating on driving.
Bless up pin helped me out far too much 😂 finally passed today on 1 minor of undue hesitation all the stress has dipped
Good luck on your test and don't worry we all makes mistakes 🙌
Omg I'm officially part of I passed my test but still watching team 😎😎
Congratulations and Welcome to the DGN Alumni!!!
She is not far from passing. She has good awareness using her mirrors well. I think she should concentrate on positioning the car better, which will give her more time to make the right decision.
ive passed my test but these are still entertaining me lol
Sat up until 2am freaking out because my driving test is today. Watched several of your videos. I've had about 20 hours of lessons recently. Pleased to sat the videos helped and I passed 1st time. Also somehow passed with 0 minors aswell
Well done on passing your test, I'm glad the videos helped
damn you passed with 20 hours of driving lessons thats good
Glad to say I passed my test two days ago😎 thankyou to all your videos too were very helpful 😊
Well done on passing your test
Jenny has good footwork on the peddles, I notice she looks down at the gear stick when she changes gear, maybe a little more practice on changing without looking could help.
Keep practising in a wide large park that you can drive,3. Turn, reverse , go around and turn into.
Watching these videos makes me so nervous/anxious about taking my driving lessons/tests lol ngl 😂
I hope Jenny was positive from your fair feedback and passed first time or (like me) second time (with more positive experienced driving). Those who pass second time are in my opinion safer than the boy racers who pass first time, then ignore the good advice they have received in such a short time. In my case we are talking about a second test in 1971 while I was in sixth form, before either of you were born, and long before computers, mobile phones or SATNAVs had even been invented or at least widely available to the general public! Happy to say I am still driving today, post cataract ops in both eyes, and still watching videos like this and others to ensure that my skills remain up to date for the modern world!
sorry what..... 80 HOURS!!!!!
In Britain, they are a lot more strict. Driving tests take ~30-40 mins on normal roads in regular live traffic. They won’t pass you till you are a reasonably good, normal driver with no serious errors. Watched a video with someone from the US with 2 years driving experience failed mock British driving test with over 20 serious mistakes, when he thought he passed easily.
🤑🤑🤑🥳🥳🥳
I had a lot of lessons too probably close, but my instructor was terrible, and wouldn't let me take the test with his car. I switched instructor, did maybe 6 lessons and passed first time. It's not always the students fault
Can someone answer this, in the UK can u book the test straight after u pass the theory, cus in Ireland u have to do 12 lessons with a driving instructor before you can book yours
bruh 80 hours that mustve cost 3k
Get a car with a rear view camera. My god its so easy to park and stops your neck from hurting. You do get some funny looks though when staring at your dashboard while reversing.
Excellent instructor debriefing with student.
Thank you Pin for your videos, they really helped me with learning to drive and i just passed this morning with 2 minors for stalling!
Edit: If anyone wondering i also had 19 hours of lessons before my test day, with a bit of practice in my dads automatic in between (passed in manual)
Congratulations on passing your test
The country is in need desperately for driving instructors your doing a good deed man
Lol, the "I knew" and guilty face cracked me up.
Would be interesting doing this with people who passed and been driving a while. See how complacent they have gotten and how much they forgot. For one I had no idea on the mm for tiers and I have a full licence
Anyone driving for more than a year will absolutely fail their test if they retried it, they won’t check every blind spot probably within weeks of passing their test, when to indicate will become closer to when your want to turn, almost everyone sits to close to the traffic in front of them, most people cannot parallel park to save their lives and il admit at times I’m one of them 😂
@@eirebhoy132 I reckon I could easily parallel park if my car had a rear camera and sensors. Would give me peace of mind not to rear end a car.
@@eirebhoy132And the amount of passed drivers who cut me up on my lessons tell me they forget what manners are too.
Im a new watcher and love the videos but Pin Binning as a name is just too much to deal with 🤣🤣👏🏼
You’re only human and that makes you a lovable person!
She’s a fine driver, just needs some fine tuning and she’ll be ok.
Bless her, talk about added pressure.
Mock driving test and it's being filmed for CZcams! Good luck next time!
She is a sweet soul, good luck Jenny 🥰 I was in similar position to you but with the help of instructer, watching these vides and of course the ULTIMATE DRIVING COURSE (Thanks Pin!!) I managed to pass second time with 3 minors this Monday 🥳
The driving test has got a lot harder these days. However, I am more confident driving independently than with someone else, so I feel for the people.
I failed my test on the very last corner not indicating as I was exiting a roundabout, I was 15 seconds away from being back to the testing branch. I reapplied for the test instantly and passed it 5 days later. Moral of the story is don't let it discourage you, just keep going you'll get there. And don't rush to pass. It's better to make sure you're a competent driver first. Be honest with yourself and address the reasons you're failing rather than rushing to have a license
6:02 i actually managed to move off in third gear once. didnt realize it was third at first but worked out. just have to be insanely careful and apply more gas but you can do it. not saying you should as this fucks up the clutch.
I did something similar. I thought it was in first and stalled 2 times trying to move off from parking (slightly uphill) and I moved off in third. 😅
I mean u can move off in 5th gear as well, not that hard ngl
it was interesting how she was able to creep forward at the roundabout in 3rd tbh
How do you not stall?
@@TaxingIsThievingjust have to provide lots of gas and power just like how you can move off on 2nd gear down a hill.
Decent driver, but probably worth going to automatic tbh! No point stressing and focusing on all the gears and clutch etc. when you've had to have this number of lessons for a manual - save yourself the hassle and money 👍
nah might as well go ahead with manual, her clutch and gears were decent apart from that 1 stall.
@@adamek9750 yeah it's just that it takes you away from concentrating on everything else, so should allow her to focus more on general awareness / the road
@@LiamHamilton. are you from UK? Worth doing test in manual. If you do your test in an automatic then you have to retest to drive manual.
@@LiamHamilton. unfortunately in the UK there's not enough automatics on the road so you're really limited. if you check autotrader & filter by automatic only it's not looking good.
@@LiamHamilton. She can do it, I have faith in her.. just takes time I guess, and everyone learns at different speeds plus it's beneficial for multiple reasons to be able to drive a manual right, at least when she passes Manual she can then have the option of going Automatic one day to make the everyday journey etc a bit easier. If we all take the easier option then we basically are limited to Automatic which I don't think would be great If you want to drive various vehicles etc for a living? suppose it is okay If you just want to drive for your own personal enjoyment but anything else.. anyway let's hope those of us who have not passed pass one day and Thank you for the videos, and she has a good atitude towards it all, she can do well, everyone makes mistake from time to time, but one day we will become really good drivers, and have you seen some people who are already on the road but drive like maniacs? least we know safe driving is for life.
i've passed my test today first time with only 3 minors. thank you so much for your tips as it has helped me out so much.!!!!
Congratulation on passing your test
Passed my license today! Binge watch your videos and errors some students made
She almost passed this test, as she now knows her mistakes in her next mock test she will definitely pass.
I got a wieredo on my driving test, when he asked me to pull up at the safest place i pulled into a carpark as i was on a dual carrage way 60mph. He was funny about that. Like fk am i pulling up on the side of a dual carrage was he having a laugh. For anyone who is taking their lessons/test, dont panic if you make a mistake it will get to you for the rest of test brush it off and continue. I have been driving for 9 years and i bet i wouldnt pass my test again. Its not realy about the learning to drive its adapting your brain to think sharper and quicker when it comes anticipating hazzards, planning your way ahead as your not used to doing this at a faster pace. We was all learners like yourself so dont feel pressured to speed up for anyone or give them prioty because the learners are prioty not the experienced drivers. Just relax you got this 👍.
She’s nice. I like her.
She did OK, just nervous
I wonder how many learners suddenly find it much easier not to scrape the kerb with their tyres or alloys when they are driving their own car. :)
At 9:00, after stalling, when exiting the roundabout, did she cut across from right to left lane on the exit ?
To me, she is in the Right lane on the roundabout, which becomes a right rurn lane for A4039. She then proceeds to indicate and proceed to use the exit on to A4063 and proceeds to cut directly across to the far left lane. Now to me, I was always taught, exit the roundabout in the lane you entered it, on the right hand side, she should have exited using the RIGHT of the two lanes on to A4063, and once exited the Roundabout, Indicate, check mirror and blind spots, and move left.
Cutting across directing lanes on a roundabout, is a No No.
While learning we all make a few mistakes and doubt a bit too much at times. Her driving seemed really good and I’m sure she’s gonna be a great driver once she gets her drivers license
I passed my test today and I really belive these videos are why I passed
I'm glad the videos were able to help and congratulations on passing your test. Welcome to the DGN Alumni
Done a intensive driving course a few months ago. Getting promised a test at the end. In the package I had 4 days of driving 9-2 and the theory test and paid 1600. After waiting 3/4 months for a test I found a cancellation and booked it myself. Found a instructor and done 2 lessons with him. Passed first time with 2 minors. 😊
Any learners out there don’t do a intensive course it ain’t worth it 😊
The intensive course gave you the knowledge to drive though didn't it there's no way you could show up do two lessons and do the test
Nah I want an intensive course before my test
One of the most common problems I see students having in these videos is gear selection. Some of the problem is that this is an unfamiliar car, so perhaps they should practice the gear positions before moving off.
Don't give up jenny get back up and get back on the horse never give up you will pass
During my first driving test (in the Netherlands) I almost hit a couple of pedestrians who were crossing the road. I hadn't noticed them, so my examiner had to hit the breaks. He did let me continue, but I knew I had already failed. The rest of the test went really well. This happened in only the second corner, within 30 seconds of me starting the test.
Passed my driving test on tuesday but can't stop watching these

I recently passed the driving test and I just bulls*tted my way through
I hit the curb on a somewhat uneven road while turning and just threw out a quick comment about the holes in the road being annoying to drive over, 20 minutes later I passed a pedestrian crossing with a pedestrian waiting (she was out of sight for me because of an illegally parked car but if I slammed the breaks I could have waited for her. No car was behind me.) so I pointed to the other side of the road and asked a random question to divert the attention of my instructor. 10/10 would not pass again
What did you ask?
Hahahaha that's brilliant, you must be a master bullshitter. LOL
Holy crap, driving instructors are strict as hell over there. Its like you have to be PERFECT to pass the damn thing. This is just insane. I bet this instructor guy has even made mistakes while driving.
You don't have to be perfect at all lmao, you can get a lot of minor faults. Just don't get a serious and you're golden. One of the lowest accident rates in the world for a reason.
i think this isnt the official test so itd make sense why hed want to be more picky and strict because than she can reflect on all the mistakes and know what the instructor is going to look for on the real test
Part of the problem is the steering wheel is on the wrong side. We weren't meant to shift with our left hand.
85 hours of practice!? god bless her!! i wonder if she has a learning difficulty or something. it's good to know these things so that we can be more understanding and compassionate of some people on the road.
Autism
@@TaxingIsThieving yeah. I figured that might be it.
It took me around a year of 1 hour lessons per week. So that's around 48 hours practice.
@@h3artyI'm climbing up to 60 hours of practice and I suspect I might have autism as well 💀 this fucking sucks low-key
After watching this, I am so glad I passed my test 8 years ago! I can remember the nerves she was feeling 🙈
