- In today’s driving lesson with Erin we started on dual carriageways and slip roads, how to enter and exit safely. Changing lanes on the carriageway as well as maintaining your speed to keep up with traffic.
The main objective today was to be able to slow down from 30mph and gear down leading up to junctions.
Erin made great progress in todays lesson.
Thank you all for your continued support

Passed first time on Monday with 0 minors!! 🎉 these videos are just the best thank you!!
Erin’s come a long way from driving lesson one. Everything seems much for fluid. Credit to Aman as well. Every learners dream instructor 😄
Erin has some social anxiety, that coupled with driving, and having to take in instructions and information from Aman can't be easy, but she does it brilliantly. She's such a serene person, with an amazing attitude.
This is my problem as well, I have social anxiety of my own and then the driving really adds to that stress, especially when I make a mistake that frustrates my instructor lol and yes the information overload sometimes can be quite rough. There's no way I can remember everything my instructor says, if he says 10 things my brain will retain like half of them and the other half he'll have to remind me again at some point lol
@@silversaturns That's why videos like this are great, as you can watch them in the comfort of your own home and think though what you might do in a similar situations.
Also with something like social anxiety, it takes repetition to learn some things to the point where you are not consciously thinking about it and getting "brain freeze". Someone with social anxiety might take longer to master the skill of driving as a result but there is nothing wrong with that (i.e. dont put pressure on yourself)...other than it being a bit more expensive to get your licence.
@@cnsmooth I know, my instructor says that I am already a good driver but my reflexes are too slow at times. Unfortunately I think that can only be fixed with more hours behind the wheel really, there's nothing much else to do there. I have my test in a couple days so I'm quite nervous right now (add performance anxiety on top of social anxiety lol) but thanks for your kind words!
Yeah I mean some of this is just having enough practice to be able to get used to what is being asked. Knowing to change gears isn't something that you consciously think about at first but over time it becomes second nature, same as coasting and not stalling. Having to have so much info thrown at you whilst you are trying to absorb the feel of driving is overwhelming and I get why Aman does it, but sometimes and with some people explaining things will only help so much. I have a similar issue at my new job. If I don't get a (physical) task done correctly, my boss and colleagues will tell and question me on the theory behind the task and why it is important. The problem is, is that I know the theory inside out, and more often than not can tell them things they might have forgotten over the years, however having that knowledge doesn't help you do the physical task any easier, and at times it seems pointless and condescending.
Lol sorry went on a rant there.
@@cnsmooth lol exactly! I know what I'm supposed to do in my head and I am sure I would figure it out too if I was driving by myself, but when you have an instructor pressing you on do the thing RIGHT NOW and it requires a bunch of quick passages, it just gets confusing even if you've done it a bunch of times before rip
Wish I had you as my driving instructor - mine just spent 90% of his time on his phone! Only information he'd give was directions! Still passed after 15 hours thanks to CZcams, lol.
Wow Erin and Aman!
What an action packed video! Taking my driving lesson many years ago in London on the A406 I cannot recall travelling at speeds close to 70 mph! Aman seems to have stepped up the pace in offering practical driving advice in readiness for busy roads and prompting Erin to think and drive more independently. Anyway well done both of you and looking forward to seeing more clips on driving
I'm simply in love about the way she's explaining. Simply amazing stuff! Great job!
Passed my driving test today, first time! My instructor helped me massively as well as your videos - thank you! x
Erin's journey has been super useful to follow, I've just recently completed an intense driving course (around 30 hours in 6 days) but as we're moving through the topics so fast, I haven't had much time to practice everything. In particular, I had struggled with when to gear change down as you don't have those same audio cues so it was more important to be aware of which speed for which gears. I had moved on to slip roads on to national speed limit dual carriageways as well as tackling roundabouts but as my approach was always lagging behind, I couldn't get the thinking time to think "how am I going to tackle this roundabout" and so just struggled a bit - sorting out the basics around clutch control, gear changes and speed management helped massively with the rest of it.
I passed my test with zero faults! Watching your videos and explanations helped so much!!!
Congrats, where did you take your test?
@@cnsmooth Hither Green
As a bus driver I love watching these for entertainment purposes plus I've actually learned plenty of stuff from you
I'd like to think you'd know your stuff as a bus driver.
@@Phuketwordsbrother always scope to learn mate, I passed my bus test with 0 faults 🤣
Your videos are the highlight of my day! 🙌
Nice drive👌🏾
Love the way Aman says “what’s that noise” when indicators are left on….gets me every time 😂👍🏾
Aman, thank you for these videos, they helped me so much with driving and i just passed today with only 2 minors!
Edit: If anyones wondering i also had 19 hours of lessons before my test day, with a bit of practice in between in my dads automatic (passed in manual)
Thanks so much for your videos you helped me pass first time yesterday morning !!! 🎉🎉
Amazing seeing Erin on 70mph roads! Here in Australia as a learner, i think the most we were allowed to do was 80km/h and i dont think i went on 100km/h highways till i was on my P's 😅
I can't belive I am watching this after passing my test on Monday after such a long journey because of covid and the long booking backlog - feels weird hahaha. Thank you so much Aman for your content, it has been such a greal help. I will continue to watch these as I enjoy them 😁🥰
Erin you are doing great, I was once like you but gained confident throught the journey!!!
I’m so jealous to see her taking lessons with this driving instructor, my driving instructor not friendly at all, he is very strict. Always shouting at me whenever I make a small mistake 😂😂
I hope you've changed instructors! That sounds similar to my first one. I thought that was normal so kept with them but they made me even more scared of driving as time progressed. I learnt much quicker and soared in confidence when I switched to a calm, understanding instructor
@@raellepickton6844 I left him and started to learn with my dad. I passed my practical test with 2 minor fault 3 days ago. Dad is best always
@@nazyramzy oh well done! Glad to hear
Very nicely done!
A lot of that was very good Erin, you're doing really well. But if I could offer a wee tip, don't be afraid to apply the brake without putting the clutch down, get the car at the speed you want and then put the clutch down and select the matching gear. As you get more confident and do more driving, it will all come naturally.
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.!!!!
Love these videos with beginners
It's so weird to watch these now after passing on Monday! Erin seems to be progressing really well though, I'm sure she'll ace her test if she continues her improvement!
Love your vids as a quietthe newbie, just looking for tip on slow down car, keep up your work, your content is really helpful.
Passed first time with 2 minors, thanks to your videos and others!
I passed my test on Monday with 4 minors!!! Finally❤️ thank you for all your tips!!
GG I had my mock test today and got 12 minors and 4 serious 😆
Speeding, wrong lane, stalling on a roundabout and didn't stop for the stop sign 🙈
I love ur vidios I’m learning so much
I used to be awful at getting my foot down so my instructor scared the hell out of me by taking me down the motorway! It worked though since my logic went to 'If I can do 70 down the motorway overtaking lorries I can do 50 down a dual carriageway'
HI AMAN TRY TAKING A CHALLENGE FOR DRIVING MOCK TEST FROM THE UNKOWN STRICT INSTRUCTOR WITHOUT GIVNG ANY INFORMATION ABOUT YOU.
Nice idea !! I'm for
Erin is getting better with her driving, she just need to be more confident, relaxed and not nervous. She needs to be more independent, If she’s not sure she needs to ask u Amen for help. She needs to be more. Slip roads and dual carriageways she needs to speed up more. But well done Erin.
Erin's baked. I love it 😁
Love these videos, I wondered if you were able to add a speedo which shows the speed of the learner for us to see? Sometimes it’s hard to judge how fast the learner is going in the videos so it could be something nice to have. Great videos anyways 😊
I'd love to see a speedometer
It would be a really good learning tool too if you could see the rev counter.
I passed my test an hour ago ish and thank you so much for your tips!!!
Me tooooooo!!!!
Congratulations👍☺️
I wish I could learn to drive from you 🙏 lots of love from India ❤️
Just relax and focus and it'll all come together 🙏👍
Hi from Australia, these vids give me more of a idea on how to drive a manual but I could never go for my test in manual as I would fail right away
Bear in mind in the UK if you pass your test in an auto you can only legally drive an auto.
Hi, I really enjoy your video's they are so great, I personally study cars alot myself and I thought I should tell you a great tip for your students!
Never turn the wheel when the vehicle is stationary, as it puts extra ware on steering components, just make sure to move slowly while you are turning to increase the longevity of your car!
Hope this helps, And I just subscribed😁
Hey thank you, I tell my students this every time.. but some still do it 😅
@@ClearviewDriving Ah that's great to hear, Thank you for the reply!
@@ClearviewDriving Would be a good topic 👍
13:50 thats where i learnt the basics of driving before going on main road use to just go round the block
Erin fans here 🥰😍🤩😘
Very good and very fast
going down gear has been taking me ages to get my head around, not sure why it sounds simple enough but the timing of breaking and slowing down the changing gear whilst still interacting with lights and other cars i always find so hard
just put in neutral
It's one of those things that eventually you don't think about. Your clutch foot takes on a life of it's own and you hope your hand keeps up.
@@Kugann that’s coasting buddy
@@Rachel-vp8cw yeah and?
Hi aman, how new Lerners position correctly and need some steering tips,
Your so Qttt 🤪 I'm big fan from Nepal 🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵🙏🙏
I see overabouts are common in your area as well :)
If you guys pause at 25:34, this is the first time we see Erin's face full of emotion and Aman too😂
Can you make a video about the rules regarding priorities ? When do you give way if there is no sign etc? I live in Greece so I don't know if the rules are the same ,since we drive in the right lane.
P.s. gearbox to the left looks sooo uncomfortable!
I learnt to drive in age 16 I am very good at traffic area
Shoes are clean
Aman, at 18:03 your passenger airbag light went off, is it normal?
Mam how to improve judgement .
Like how much distance apart form the side lines is our car
Pls make video on it
I find myself leaving my foot on the clutch a lot aswell don’t know why I just do
Same I also leave my right foot resting on the accelerator and my Instructer thinks I’m using power when I ain’t I like it to rest there lol
my test is tomorrow at 1:25… it doesn’t feel real, so scared
Update: I passed with 3 minors!!!
Good luck
good luck! I had my test today at that time and I passed and the roads weren't too busy!
Good luck. Remember to breathe every time they pull you over on the left. Observations are key!!!
You'll be fine 😊
Good luck. Make sure to go over the manoeuvres and the reference points in your head the night before. POM, MSPSL and you'll be fine.
Update: Grinding the heck out of driving tip videos 12 hours before my actual test. 😭🥲
What do you do if u can't merge from slip road but your at 60 to match traffic
Erin seems quite similar to how I was when I first started driving. I would love to be friends with her, we seem to have similar personalities 😊
Remember IPSGA. Information, position, speed, gear, acceleration. Anyone the understands system of vehicle control and road craft knows that you have the vehicle set up before the turn and there’s no brake gear overlap. Nor do you do brake in the bend, this unstables the vehicle.
😍😍😍🤩🤩🤩👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Only here to your lovely expressions...
I miss steering wheel on rgt 😭😭😭😭😭
Did she not look right at the round about for the second time? 21:15
Does anyone tell me why I don’t see anyone honking even when it seems necessary? In England all are good drivers that they don’t need to honk? 😄
I have watched more than 20 videos in this channel and haven’t seen anybody honking. Great and also being an Indian this is super rare to see 😂
The markings in the middle of the road at 20:52 are so pointless if they don't prohibit parking on the sides.
Erin.. you need more advise about your clutch usage = you're quick off it and not on it early enough. mention to the instructor. i would be shocked if she didn't agree. think of being on clutch ready at least 5 seconds before you need use it.. youre literally last second. this is not good practice
I'm thinking she was actually doing really well on the clutch. She wasn't coasting or jerking the car at any point. I guess I'm not seeing what you mean?
@@sburch1529 as you get more experienced and come across so many incidents like the Idiot on the roundabout.. you will get an automatic need to have those feet ready just on case. When she stops it's literally last second she's on the clutch.. at least 3 seconds is a better time.. shows your ready and helps car roll to a nice stop. Watch again and see her stops are quite harsh. Very last second.. as an emergency stop would be. If she tried drive my car in this manner it would be stalling and shuddering all time .. also, I encourage keep your feet near / resting lightly near clutch until you've finished with your 1-2-3-4th gears. ( We are minimum 30 Mph up here.. so 4th @30 is normal). Takes max 10 seconds to get to speed so removing foot between 1-2-3+4 is pointless and watch anyone with experience drive
. They do same.
@@sburch1529 and she was coasting
0:20 Always a German car driver...
I love u
16:58 dangerous? I thought that was illegal.
22:00 in that situation, i dont care about their signals.
I dont wanna crash into them, so signal or not, they can still go straight, because I always assume, that people dont signal (motorcycle rider).
Insurance talk in case of a crash:
"He signaled to go right!"
"No I didnt signal, I was going straight!"
"Do we have any witnesses or cameras?"
"No we dont."
...
The same in a roundabout, always assume, that people dont signal their exit and you are off safe.
When they use their signal at a roundabout, act like it doesnt exist.
In the end, do you rather wanna discuss if someone signaled or not while being in a wheelchair OR wanna be healthy and not complain about anything because you didnt crash in the first place?
whens it her test
Tomorrow
70 miles per hour? On a lesson? Forget that, I think ill stick to lessons in south london.
ealing gurl?
How is this showing 1 year lol... You might not see this as it's an old video but Erin I hope you are enjoying your license and the independence that comes with it in 2024...only say that coz I hear you forget about the learning process when you've had your pink card for a while
If in India she would have scolded like anything for waiting
ngl I think u should pass her since she's cute
She needs to feel and be more sure
Indian ko chidata wh muh mot ho
This lesson won't workout for indian....
By the way we don't need licenses....
