💜 Thank you for watching my video: How to drive in SLOW moving TRAFFIC in a MANUAL car | Driving instructor talkthrough UK
Thanks for teaching, your explanation is very clear and easy to grasp Watching from Uganda 🇺🇬 ,,, 👋
All the way from Uganda. Wow. Thank you watching! 🫶🏾
my biggest fear is stalling
I used to feel the same way but the thing is, you'll always stall and you're just going to have to accept that. Accept that you will feel silly when it happens. We are not perfect.
I'm a year into driving a manual and I stalled twice today going up a dirt mountain road with traffic going 1-2mph.
Happened to me quite a few times. A couple of times at hills, slow moving traffic, and traffic lights. A little embarrassing and annoying while holding back a couple of cars but yeah... Just apologised and kept going 😅
1st year of manual
It’s good to fear I guess
I stalled yesterday for an entire stoplight. It happens! Take a deep breath and start again. Don’t rush yourself and always remember, You’re driving the car. No one else!
First time I stalled was in a 4 lane intersection. Luckily the guy behind me had a manual too and was just giving the thumbs up. Mistakes happen and people know that. Don’t panic or rush. Stalling is natural! 2-3 years later I won’t pay attention and stall 😂
Great stuff. I’m learning so much from your videos brother
Thank you Ousman 😀
Thanks a ton for a short and precise video
Another excellent video! Nicely explained. Thanks Mark
Thank you Shan 😀
Mainly for downhill, i feel like riding the clutch is a little excessive. I’d personally recommend staying in neutral and feathering the break, keeping the clutch from being engaged. To re engage in gear, put it in second once you hit a bit above you’re idle rpm and let the clutch back out. Excellent video, just wanted to add a personal tip to anyone this can help
Thank you. You have a valid point. I think I'd be more likely to use that technique if I was going down a long steep hill with no traffic ahead of me or if the traffic was moving at a decent pace.
Thank for the video
I had anxiety watching this. Thanks for the tips!
Why did it give you anxiety?
@@ZONDOdrivingI imagined myself driving
just got a civic si. thank you
Thank you brotha, nice and simple explanation, watching from Perú
Hola to you all the way in Peru
Thank you Sir. Very. helpful. I needed it.
Glad it helped
Thank you so much.This is really helpful
You're very welcome!
Hi. Love this video, so easy to understand with how you explain it.
I am struggling with slowing down/ and gearing down at the right time to safely go from major roads to minor roads. Do you have any videos to help with this?? Thank you 😊
Thank you agentshadow13 glad. I have done a video on this before but will be doing an updated one soon.
🎉🎉❤ thanks from your great videos Love from Afghanistan😊
Thank you and glad to you are enjoying all the way from Afghanistan. 🫶🏾
Thanks 🙏
Thanks
Beautiful explanation
Thank you so much 🫶🏾
I subscribe😭 thanks for existing
Thank you for watching Patric. What a great compliment. 🫶🏾
I'm in driving school in Kenya, this is very helpful, asante sana bro.
Jambo and asante sana
Nice video
But like to see you do videos on how to slow down at roundabouts and junctions. Something I struggled was with when I would move down from gear 3 to gear 2 I would panic, car would jolt or end up coasting. Slowing down/gearing down smoothly
I also think positioning on the road is another issue for me. Can't really tell how far I am away from a car beside me or when car is incoming on a two way road. Usually end up guessing/steering without really thinking how close/far I am from another car.
I have this same issue with parking on left. I kinda guess to see if I am near the kerb or not. I don't really calculate/judge it properly. I can only check once I park on the left and look at side mirror to see how far I am from kerb.
Hi Sunny. I will be doing a video based on your first paragraph. Will be uploading soon. 😎
I thought that staying in gear in heavy traffic was bad. So the proper way is to just shift into neutral. What's the correct way? I really need to know.
The correct way is to do what you find easiest for you. As long as the car is controlled.
If you’re at a stop light and it’s taking a while, it’s best to sit in neutral. However if you’re in traffic like this which is constantly stopping and starting it’s completely ok to stay in first and hold the clutch
Thanks for the resoan

Does Using clutch like that in traffic wear the clutch disc?
Hi thanks for the video. Really learned a lot. One question tho, isnt it bad if you step on the clutch for too long?
It depends what you're doing with the gas and whether the clutch is at the biting point or not.
You make it quite fun. I have actually driven manual since I was a teen. In 2017 I bought a new A4 B9, six speed; however, the handbrake was gone, now it is a switch in the center console, activated and deactivated by the index finger. I live around a lot of city hills and it was quite an adjustment, always used to that forceful handbrake. Wonder if you have dealt with that change. In the US only 2017-2018 were available in six speed, so not many of us with this scenario here, I suppose. Thanks!
Nice. I'm about to do a video in a 6 speed because my main car is out of commission for a while. Lot's more gear changes 😁
@@ZONDOdriving Looking forward to watching
Video on moving gears at a higher speed please 😢
Video on moving gears at a higher speed please
I got you czcams.com/video/muO-JufMYnA/video.html
Hi sir I really liked your way of explaining very nice
Sir can you help me because I already passed on Automatic car
But now I really want to learn on Manual car so what i need to do for it please Thanks so much
Thank you Qasim. Glad you liked the way I explained. If you check out the playlist called driving lessons, there are a lot of lessons on there for manual cars. 😁
@@ZONDOdriving okay 👍 Thanks so much sir
Unfortunately my clutch does not work like this. It’s either all or nothing or it stalls.
Can I ask is holding down the clutch (staying in first gear with handbrake on) bad for the clutch should I have the clutch AND brake down when sitting in traffic temporarily or is it ok clutch only ?
Either is OK. Whatever is easiest for you. The main thing is that the car is controlled. It's not bad for the clutch. My car is almost 9 years old and it's driven by leaners that way all the time and it's still fine.
can I please ask as the car moving slow in traffic , I hear you saying I must find the bite point with the clutch and be around bite not over a bite because speed may be rising but you quite about the gas , should I not use it????
At really slow speeds, most of the time you won't need to use the gas. If you're on a steep hill and your car is struggling, you might need a bit of gas.
Am Josephine from Uganda but i need a video on how to move gears
When going downhill and putting the clutch down isnt called coasting?
Not in the example I gave. Coasting is when it's not controlled and that usually involves higher speeds.
What if i want to totally start the car up on a hill cuz when i get my foot off the clutch the car starts going down and if i leave the brake still it starts goin down
If the car is going down when you come off the brake, it means you haven't got enough of a biting point. Make sure you feel a bit of vibration first before releasing the brake, that way you know you've got enough of a bite and it shouldn't roll back. Hope that helps. 😁
Now im on 2nd n there is a uturn, now i wont stop but vl go dead slow,What should i do when i get dead slow but don't want to stop , but pick up in that pace ? Shud i shift to 1st or keep it in 2nd n go?
I'd change into 1st. Keeping it in 2nd in my car will make the car shake and also won't give me the acceleration that 1st would give.
@@ZONDOdriving okay so if my speed reached below 10 km/ph i should shift into 1st right?. Bcoz my driving instructor is like never shift into 1st when in moving condition, 1st is used only for pickup, even if slow then go in 2nd and too slow then press clutch and take it forward. So im confused. When i go on speed breaker slow, my engine stopped bcoz of no enough power . And i asked him should i shift to 1st? When going dead slow he is like no keep on second n play and do clutch play
how do i yield for a car on a right turn without completely stopping the car and having to start from gear 1 again
It's a lot to do with timing, how the other car moves, whether you're on a hill or not and more.
I am really having difficulties with balancing on a slope or something

@@ZONDOdriving thank you
On the downhill part, can’t you just put it in neutral and control the car with the brake
is this true ?
You can. As long as you're good at getting back into gear again quickly enough once the traffic starts moving faster.
I feel you could panic when in free gear since you don't have much of car control.
You will overheat your brakes if it's a long trip down the hill (e.g. 45 minute journey down from a mountain).
google "engine braking"
Those people who go into neutral before the stop is to relieve the clutch... Holding down the clutch throughout a traffic like how you are showing is not recommended as it will damage the clutch
can i do brake and then clutch?
You can if you're going fast enough. If you do when going too slow, you risk the car stalling.
Thanks 🙏
