I passed my exam with watching all the videos on this channel. It's incredibly informative. A standout moment was when I commented on one of the videos just a day before my exam while feeling stressed. Remarkably, I received a response in under 30 minutes, which helped ease my nerves.
This is such a heart-warming comment. Congratulations on the great achievement 🥳
You're a great teacher as you gave encouragement and support to Oliver. Congratulations Oliver
I have driving test day after tomorrow. I got my first driving lesson today. I did some mistakes as Oliver did. But now I am very stressed for my test. Luckily you just uploaded the view and I watched it. Very informative. I hope I will pass the test after watching it. 😅
How did u go?
Thank you a very informative video!
Good to see Learner drivers keeping their distance from trucks at traffic lights etc,. 👌
pz post similar videos atleast 8 to 10, thankyou for the wonderful explanation.
Is there a requirement to do shoulder checks at every turn? I always got taught shoulder checks for merging/entering slip lanes and before making a right turn. Is it mandatory for all turns or just merging Etc Etc?
I got my test in about a week and a half, on the 15th. I'm loving your videos and i've been watching them since the mere beginning! Do you think you will have time to explain to us the reverse parallel parking rules?
Also, I noticed that Oliver wasn't doing shoulder check pretty much anywhere, I was always told that every turn, despite the small turn, to do shoulder check.
Lastly, I drive a manual car, do you know where I can find videos like yours for manual car tips?
Hi Nicolas,
Thank you for hanging with us on this channel.
1) I have a private video on reverse parallel parking, which you can watch here: (a newer and updated video is on the way)
emudrivingschool.com.au/Package/How-to-do-a-Reverse-Parallel-Parking-Step-by-Step
2) You don't need to do shoulder checks for EVERY turn. Shoulder checks are for turns where the road is too wide or there is a road shoulder or bike lane, for example, on the side. I'll make a video on that, too.
3) Maybe just have a search on RUclips, and you can find videos for manual cars. If there is nothing for Australia, there are some videos from the UK.
@@drivingtestaustraliaThank you for replying! That brought me so much more clarity, as it seems it be a misconception. Although, is it possible to get minor points for over doing should check?
Also, I have two minor questions regarding speed signs that are yellow (mostly seen when exiting the highway). I've noticed that those speeds (aka exit speed) are drastically slower compared to the actual highway's speed. Should we, when doing the test reduce at such speed before we pass the yellow speed sign? Or it is just like a recommended speed?
And lastly, I was also told that for every time we are sitting in a red traffic light, we shall put the handbrake always, is this true? As I see so many students not doing it but I've been reinforced by so many people otherwise.
Thank you for your videos! I'm definitely putting in practice all of your tips! I hope you get more tip videos before my test haha!
@@nicolascuervo9910 You're welcome.
1. You don't get marks down for over doing shoulder checks. If you do shoulder checks where you are not supposed to (provided you don't lose the control of the car and can maintain the proper road position by doing them).
2) Yellow signs are advisory sign and as you mentioned recommended signs. For the yellow signs posted on the exiting ramps, you better follow them as they are preparing you to get your speed down to usually 60. If you drive with a speed a bit over the speed mentioned on the yellow sign, you won't fail.
3) No. You don't need to pull your handbrake up behind red lights, unless it's on an incline and you want to do a hill start to avoid rolling back. Watch this video:
ruclips.net/video/28kv08mqZaM/видео.htmlsi=9UK1ffMGZ9mSPg3g
How do I know that I'm on the right line?
Do fixed red light cameras capture people running red lights in both directions? Or only the direction that the traffic is travelling on the side that they are positioned? Eg : + the camera is placed horizontal on the right side. Do they capture car crossings vertical???
Great question. There are two cases:
Fixed red light cameras typically capture vehicles running red lights in the direction that the camera is facing. For example, if the camera is positioned to monitor traffic traveling in one direction, it will primarily capture violations from vehicles traveling in that direction.
However, some fixed red light cameras are designed to capture violations from multiple directions. These cameras may be strategically positioned at intersections to monitor traffic from different angles, allowing them to capture violations from vehicles traveling in various directions, including those crossing intersections perpendicular to the camera's orientation.
Thanks for your reply 😊
Could you explain how to do reverse parking for the last bay. I'm scared i'll be asked that in the test. Because of the videos i've watched + my driving instructor, they always say use a technique such as a specific line method, but you can't really do that for the last bay can you
They don't ask you to park in the last bay. The 3 lines method still works for parking in the last bay if you can imagine where the lines would be. But the easier method to park in the last bay is the 45 degree method. I need to make a video of that.
@@drivingtestaustralia Yep I understand that the 3 lines method can be used for the last bay, but obviously not in situations where after the last bay there is a wall that blocks it, in this case you use the 45 degree thingy right? Also do you think its bad practice to park with the small bubble mirrors because ive only learnt how to do that with my driving instructor
@@starumedah6945 If there is a wall next to the last bay, even the 45 degree method is not going to work, as there won't be enough room to put the car at a 45 degree angle due to the wall. That needs a totally different method ( which I don't have a name for lol). I guarantee that they won't ask you to park in such a bay that you are describing.
Half of the worries that we have in life never happens, so don't stress.
Using just the bubble mirrors is not acceptable. You must be predominantly looking behind when reversing. You can only get help from your mirrors. I personally love those mirrors, but don't rely on JUST mirrors.
12:30 was that turn okay? To me it looked like he should have waited until after that car, looked a bit close by the time her turned.
Ideally, he could have waited for that car, but still, the turn wasn't dangerous
In the video he is crossing hands when steering check 10:06. Is it allowed?
Yes. Nothing wrong with that. Check this video: ruclips.net/video/AUx_XkFd3FQ/видео.htmlsi=Kvye-vfbOsrXFREI
Should he also be doing far more headchecks. Mirrors Indicate then headcheck every time he makes a turn. Not on a single turn did he do headchecks. Additionally could it be argued he is approaching intersections too aggressively and too quickly instead he should progressively slow?
Not really. You don't have to do shoulder check for EVERY single turn. Only if there is a reasonable space for another vehicle next to you, when you make a turn, shoulder check is required. In regards to the speed, I would have liked him to approach a bit slower, but it wasn't too dangerous to mark him down. Also, action cameras show the speed a lot faster than the actual speed
@@drivingtestaustralia I don’t know if it’s different in NSW but both my instructors in the past have been saying a cyclist or something could slip past so I should be checking every single turn?
34:47 Isn’t both hands off the wheel a fail?
Not when the car is stationary
واقعا عالی آموزش میدید
خیلی ممنون. لطف دارید 🙏
@drivingtestaustralia please help me!! What does "MS" stand for at 18:10?? I don't understand what he did wrong??
Ah that stands for Mirrors & Shoulder check. So checking mirrors and doing a shoulder check
After watching the video, I think it would be a good idea to take lessons, but only automatically. Why?
If you mean why we do only automatic cars, because that's our decision 🙂
سلام اقا امید
ببین عزیز من ۲۵ شاید ۳۰ سال پیش تصدیق گرفتم هفته پیش رفتم برای NSW توشهری به خاطر نحوه کلاچ گرفتن من رد کرد ن به نظرت با اتوماتیک برم یا با همون منوال برم 🎉 نظرت برم خیلی کمک کنده است.
سلام آقا رایان،
انتخاب شماست که اتوماتیک امتحان بدید یا منوال. با گواهینامه اتوماتیک فقط میشه ماشین اتوماتیک رانندگی کرد ولی با گواهینامه منوال، جفتش رو میتونید رانندگی کنید. اگه با منوال میخواهید امتحان بدید، توصیه میکنم یه ساعت کلاس آموزش با یه مربی با ماشین دنده ای بگیرید.
ممنون امید جان به توصیه که کردی حتما عمل میکنم خبرشم بهت میدم
@@drivingtestaustralia please help me!! What does "MS" stand for at 18:10?? I don't understand what he did wrong??
ولی کاشکی دوربین عقب را هم در کادر به صورت دایم می گذاشتید تا دید بهتری برای تماشا برای ما می بود. اگر تصویر راننده کوچکتر باشه اشکالی ایجاد نمی کنه در صورت نبود جا برای دوربین صندلی عقب
چون اتفاق خاصی عقب ماشین نیفتاد و بیشتر میخواستم تابلوها رو نشون بدم، دوربین عقب رو زیاد استفاده نکردم ولی بله حتما تو ویدئوهای بعدی اگه اتفاق مهمی پشت ماشین بیفته، اون زاویه رو هم نشون میدم.
I was told never to cross my arms while driving from my instructor due to if there was a accident that causes the air bags to pop, it could cause damage to your arms etc. However Oliver was constantly crossing his arms while driving, I'm confused now.
