    Hi Rick, Just wanted to say thanks for making videos, you really helped me learn and improve my driving. I have had terrible anxiety for years and I finally passed my test yesterday! I’m so happy, I can’t get over it. Your videos helped so much. And to anyone battling with anxiety while driving, you can do it ! Just take it little by little. Thanks again Rick, have a good one 😬

    Our dearest Rick. We thank you for these videos you freely bring to us. As a long-time driver, who has picked up some bad habits, I am always re-learning from you. You're always at the front of my mind when I am driving, and at times I got your audio playing as I drive.
    You're like that lovely uncle anyone would be blessed to have. Thank you so much once again, for everything! You're a star. Kindest regards from the UK/England.💖💖

    Do not wear any open toe shoes (flip flops, sliders, etc.) while driving; the bottom of the shoe and foot can sandwich the pedals, leaving you stuck in acceleration. If you have to wear flips flops or the like, drive barefoot.

    Thank you for the video! Good timing. Booked the ICBC Class 7 Road Test on the first day it opened to everyone. The first available date I can get is November 24 - 3 months away! That's ok because it gives me enough time to practise and be ready for the test.

    I am trying to get my independency back, I only drived for a little bit in my country, but my training was a two days-training, in between I got my driver's licence (!!!!, right?) My anxiety was off the roof. A few years in USA, I could handle to move around with a support system, but I need to be myself again, to go anywhere I want with my boy, tired to be at home bored and without my family, I need this, sooooo bad. I do have a full time job (still working remotely part-time) But I need to be me again, a fun person with a purpose and a mom who takes care of her child. My husband does his thing on weekends, and he does not take us anywhere fun to relax.

    I’ve had my license for 3 years but I still love watching your videos. Could you do a remake to your bay parking video? I admit in that area I’m still pretty weak in terms of the backing in after turning at an angel. I believe it’s called the 45 degree method? Not sure. But I can definitely improve in that area, Thanks rick!
