  • Pulling away from the side of the road is one of the first skills that we need to develop when learning to drive, and also something we will need to do every time we drive a car. It is extremely important to pull away from the side of the road safely, so this video will show you how to do this without putting yourself in danger. We’ll also look at some of the most common mistakes, and how to avoid them.

    An easier way to do the 6 point check is to check the blind spot on the pavement side. If your parked on the left, start off with the left blind spot, and if you’ve parked on the right, start off with the right blind spot, you can start off with the opposite side but it’s slightly harder

    How would you pull away quickly at a roundabout? Whenever I set the gas and find the bite and hold it there the car moves slowly until speed is built up to lift the clutch. Do i just set more gas at the start to allow the clutch to be lifted a bit quicker?

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  3 года назад +1

      We use a little more gas, a little more clutch bite, and then lift clutch once the car is above walking pace as we feed more power in. We show it in this video; Clutch control at low speed: ruclips.net/video/8O3ZSqmJ9Yc/видео.html 👍🏼

    Is it different with diesel cars ? The little gas before getting the clutch bite bit

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool

      This car is a diesel - so yes, gas before clutch normally works best in all cars.

  • @night_traffic
    @night_traffic 5 лет назад +1

    I am from India. I was taught to depress the clutch and brake fully first, select first gear, release the handbrake and then release the clutch till the biting point and then release the brake. I see that you depress the clutch and apply the accelerator, and release the clutch till the biting point, and THEN release the handbrake. Which method is better? Which should i use? I'm confused. Thanks in advance.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  5 лет назад +1

      We prefer to use the handbrake and the ‘gas then clutch’ method as it gives more engine power to pull away confidently - but if you prefer your technique then that’s fine. As long as the car is safe and under control then either is Ok.

    I noticed u mentioned that we must not signal when pulling away if there is traffic behind us as it may cause danger. What happens if there is too much traffic and we are waiting too long. I sometimes signal so someone can be kind enough to leave me way as they know I want to pull out and it works.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  6 лет назад +3

      +Siama Begum We must wait until there is a safe gap before we pull away. Causing other traffic to stop with our signal could fail a driving test, so it’s better to be patient.

    Pulling away seems simple but I failed my 2nd driving test because of it. The scenario is like this. I pull up on the left and do drive on when you are ready. I check the mirrors and blind spot. I saw a car behind in my center mirror however I misjudge he is stopping for me so I check the right mirror and blind spot to go. However just as I moved the driver behind overtakes me so I got a major fault !! Arrrrh

    Won't this burn the clutch by slipping the clutch?

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  4 года назад +1

      No, as long as the engine revs are fairly low and the clutch is only held at the biting point for a few seconds the clutch won’t be harmed. If you do burn the clutch (with excessive engine speed or holding the bite for a long time) you’ll smell it!

      We think ‘clutch then gas’ is a poor way to teach someone to drive - this video explains why: ruclips.net/video/3AS1ZtyfjC4/видео.html

    Great videos. But on this video we need to get the bite then observations. Otherwise you have a gap. And another right shoulder just before the release of the handbrake.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks. We don’t recommend finding the clutch bite before the observations, as the clutch will overheat if held at the biting point for too long. Once a driver has good clutch control they can do everything in the order we suggest, but if you prefer a different way that’s fine 👍🏼

    • @wez8121
      @wez8121 6 лет назад

      How about the right shoulder again.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  6 лет назад

      Just a last check in the drivers door mirror should do. However if we can’t move away and have to wait more than 5 seconds, then we’d do another blind spot check just to make sure it’s still safe.

    rear view mirror is used to view that backside of the car. no need to turn back

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  7 лет назад +13

      +Alexander Jacob The mirrors only view directly behind the car, and leave large 'blind spots' either side of the car - which can only be checked by looking around over your shoulders. In the U.K. this must be done whenever pulling away in order to pass the driving test.

  • @mohamedn87

    Not much help. Not everybody drives Manuel. You should do videos one for automatic cars. Also how about videos that teach how to steer.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  5 лет назад +3

      In the U.K. over 90% of learners use a manual car, so we usually film with this car. However, all the videos are still useful if you just ignore the gear changing. For steering help watch our other video ‘How to steer a car’ 👍🏼

    • @mohamedn87
      @mohamedn87 5 лет назад

      Advance Driving School . . . Well in USA. More people drive automatic cars. I know how to steer but some maneveurs are complicated. I know hand over hand which I am most comfortable with. I need a advice on pulling out between parked cars, pulling out of parallel parking. I just need to know how to steer while pulling out of parallel parking.

    • @mohamedn87
      @mohamedn87 5 лет назад

      Advance Driving School . . . can you do a video on “how to pull out of parallel parking”. Like between parked cars one in front of you and behind you. I am struggling with handling the steering wheel while pulling out”. The videos aren’t much help with that.

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool
      @AdvanceDrivingSchool  5 лет назад

      We had never thought about filming getting out of a tight parallel park! Just to give you some quick help before we can make a video: Reverse as much as you can, then ‘dry steer’ full lock away from the kerb, before edging carefully out. 👍🏼

    • @mohamedn87
      @mohamedn87 5 лет назад

      Advance Driving School . . . But what about a parallel park that is not tight or has sufficient space between you and other parked vehicles. I am talking about one with parked vehicles both in front and back of you. How would I pull out in this case?.
