- In this video I show you HOW TO CHANGE LANES SMOOTHLY AND SAFELY. This video might be long but it covers almost all the points you need to know when changing lanes. Changing your position on the road involves changing lanes or overtaking and passing another vehicle. Before beginning, be sure you have enough space and time to complete the move safely.
Never change lanes without giving the proper signal and looking to make sure the move can be made safely.
Here are the steps for making a lane change:
Check your mirrors for a space in traffic where you can enter safely.
Check your blind spot by looking over your shoulder in the direction of the lane change. Be especially careful to check for bicycles and other small vehicles. Signal that you want to move left or right.
Check again to make sure the way is clear and that no one is coming too fast from behind or from two lanes over on a multi-lane road.
Steer gradually into the new lane. Do not slow down, maintain the same speed or gently increase it.
Never make sudden lane changes by cutting in front of another vehicle, including bicycles. Other drivers expect you to stay in the lane you are already in. Even if you signal, they expect you to yield the right-of-way.
Avoid unnecessary lane changes or weaving from lane to lane. You are more likely to cause a collision, especially in heavy traffic or bad weather. Don't change lanes in or near an intersection. Remember that spending a few seconds behind another vehicle is often safer than going around it.

Great explanation. Finally someone explained what exactly to look for when looking into mirrors, I've struggled with that a little bit.
Thanks for watching, friend!
Exactly
I struggle a bit with that as well! 3 years later, how are you doing now with changing lanes? does it get easier with practice?
This was by far the best explanation and demonstration needed in regards to changing lanes. I finally found the right info!! I struggle with how much to turn the steering wheel at a fast speed when changing lanes, how to gauge the distance of the car behind me and the time it takes to check the mirrors and my blind spot ! You hit it on the nail! Thank you!!
Thank you, Danielle! I am glad you liked this video. Many more videos to follow. Hope you have turned on the notifications for the channel.
Steer just a little bit, use distance to complete lane change.
@Toronto Drivers I'm going for my driver's test in 2 weeks. Could you make a video on what steps I should do to make sure I pass on the test? Like what they will rate me on.
Same
6:27 Really, I thought I was the only one. I guess it's a natural tendency to turn your head and wheel at the same time until you learn the coordination. I will never forget when I was taking driver's ed and the instructor would get so mad when I would do this. He got so mad one day, he said, if you do that again, I'm going to cuff you one. This is what I remember more than anything from driver's ed. I'm watching this video because 40 years later, I'm still not as confident as I need to be in changing lanes.
Passed my test today at mississauga temp drive centre!
Examiner was super nice..Main credit goes to my bf and the rest goes to bunch of youtube videos! Thank you
Congratulations and you are welcome!
I’m not even done with the video and I’m getting so much value! Thank you! I’ve always wondered how this is done
Thank you, Aba! Much appreciate it. All the best!
1:48 I have the EXACT SAME problem: "how far and how fast is the damn car behind(from the side mirrors)!!!!'
Thank you so much for this; everyone shouts, check your mirrors, but never what I should be looking at
Thank you! Appreciate it :)
I really needed this. My driving instructor was telling my I kept doing this wrong/too slow but didn’t really explain how to correct it and I was feeling like an idiot. Plus having this explained to you on the highway while your wheel being grabbed is so stressful!!
You are the best instructor ever!! Thank you so much for the great videos you shared with us.. may God bless you more 💕💕
Thank you, Nataliena!
I watched all your videos and it helps me a lot 🙏🙏
I love your videos!
You instruct things and reason very clearly. I am just a new driver and it really help me and others by watching your videos. May God bless your heart.
@@khinmyolwin2146 Thank you for the nice words! All the best! 🙏🙏
I'm presently in driving school and my most difficulty is lane changing, which my instructor was unable to explain, this video explained everything including the demonstration and it's amazing to me and very helpful. Thank you so much.
Dude!, plate Exercise oh my god I’m glad you did it too. It gives me hopes that this isn’t a waste of time. Since none of my family or friends know how to drive I have to exercise my brain to get used to the road. I imagine myself into feeling that I’m on the road with my imaginary pedals, mirrors, shoulder checking and hand over hand doing parallel parking as well as a lining while parallel parking, turning signal all day like 5 hours. I don’t keep my head straight I move my head scanning my surrounding.
Done thanks
Signal first before checking mirrors (because if you check mirror first you have to check again after)
Must check
1. Rear view mirror (if car behind you wants to also switch lanes, let them switch first)
2. Side video mirror (if you see full car in side view mirror then you have enough room, also make sure car isn’t speeding up, if it is then let it pass you before you switch lanes)
3. Blind spot check
Steer slightly when switching not suddenly
Don’t steer the wheel while checking blind spot
Give your self a distance of two car lengths before switching behind a car, the car you switch behind might stop you need enough distance to stop too
Great summary
Thanks for you tips and videos, helped me pass my test today, more power!!
I’ve watched a few driving videos and I find yours to be the most helpful. I’m learning a lot. Thank you so much!
I'm delighted to hear that you've found my videos the most helpful for your learning! 😄Keep up the great work, and I'm here to support your journey. Thank you for your kind words! 🚗👍😊
Thanks for the great explanation. This is the most detailed and best tutorial I have watched so far on lane changing.
Thank you, Bymc98!
I started to watch your video and makes me feel happy to understand clearly about the rood.
I am glad to hear that you understand my video.
Watching from Nigeria, I’ve quickly subscribed to your channel. Watching how to reverse here has build my confidence. I never knew Reverse direction ‘ I keep doing it the wrong way. But this channel helped cause I’ve been going to Nigeria driving school but simply watching it here saved me d time & gave me the right insights. Thanks
Second video that I watched by you. The plate tip is genius! I'll definitely will keep practicing checking blind spots with the plate because I'm one of those people who turn the steering wheel while checking blind spots. I still need a lot of things to learn because I only driven 3x, need to keep practicing while waiting for my next driving lesson I can used all the tips and guidance from your videos.
Thank you for the compliment, Welmina! Yes, the plate tip has helped a lot of people. I am sure you will benefit from it. Good luck practicing!
Lane switching explained beautifully 👏✅
Thank you for watching, Aarti!
You are the best INSTRUCTOR EVER ♥️♥️
I failed my G for the 3rd time yesterday specifically because of my lane changes. Everything else was perfect. I’m going to follow this video & hope I pass when I go again in a month.
Thanks a.lot for your wonderful presentation. Specially I like the dos and don'ts while changing lanes on highways. It looks so easy when I watch but on the road only the real test takes place .
Thank you, Kadir!
You are probably the best at explaining the whole driving thing everything that comes to my mind you answer it in your videos 💕
Best explanation ever
Thank you so much, Samir!
Last week I got my G2. Thanks for your videos.
Thank you for your amazing informative videos I passed my g2 today!
I just love your instructions, I really appreciate your tips. Will update you my road test result in 12/15/2022 1 week from now.🎉🎉🎉
Thanks man for your effective idea and I really want to admire your plate idea.
Great explanation, I hope I learn and recall them during my test
I'm watching your videos over and over again so I can familiarize all the techniques about driving and your videos are very helpful 👌👍🙂
That's fantastic to hear! 😊I'm glad my videos are proving helpful to you. Keep watching and practicing, and stay safe on the road! 🚗👍😀
Signal first. I was doing all wrong. Glad I watched your video before attempting to take my 1st G2 test. Thank you!
So u signal first then check your square mirror then your driver side mirror then your blind spot then move over to the lane not check all mirrors then signal then check your mirrors again
You were right and he is wrong. You should always check the mirrors before signalling and then again before you change lanes 👍🏻
One of the most detailed videos I've seen on changing lanes, so I subscribed. You touched on a lot of points that I've not seen in similar videos :)
5/6/2021
btw I passed my test on 3rd May 2021 but I still have a long way to go in being a safer driver. Watching these vids are a huge help.

@@calvin9187 Thank you for the compliment, Calvin! I like your spirit. Most people just stop learning after they get the license. You are on the right track. You will soon become a good driver. All the best!
The best explanation I’ve ever seen
This is my favourite youtube channel for everything related to Driving. I had my G2 Exam today and I cleared it. This was my second attempt.
That's amazing to hear! 🚗 Congratulations on passing your G2 Exam on your second attempt! That's a significant achievement. If you ever need more driving tips or have questions in the future, don't hesitate to reach out. Keep up the great work and enjoy your driving journey! 😊👏👍
Thanks for this video from months since I first watched it I drove on City for the first time in a long time and used most of what I remembered checking the blind spot and using the 3-4 flashing time before the lane change. I still need to practice more. But at least now I'm safer for knowing how to do it right.
That's great, Scott! I am glad this video has given you the confidence to change lanes safely. All the best!
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow. Extremely, extremely, extremely great tutorial. Finished from a driving school in Nigeria, but NEVER was taught or told this. Glad I found you here. Great job. Please keep It up.
Thank you so much for the enthusiastic response! 🙌 I'm thrilled that my tutorial could provide you with valuable information. I'll definitely keep it up and continue sharing helpful tips. If you ever need more guidance, just let me know. Happy driving! 🚗😊👏
Thank you for your videos. I've been watching all of it before my G test. I just passed, 1st attempt.
That is great news and I am happy for you!
Hello Harminder, I have been watching your videos and learning a lot ..
I would request a video on how to react when we hear emergency vehicles while driving!
You explaining anything makes my understanding super clear! I would appreciate your video on this topic.
Great explanations about the lane change, many driving instructors simply advise students to check different mirrors but they don't explain students clearly what, when and why to look at the mirrors and how to react for the vehicles around.
I'm so glad you found the explanations about lane changes helpful! If you have more questions or need further clarification on any driving topic, feel free to ask. Safe driving, and thank you for your support! 😊👏

You're very welcome! 😄 If you ever have more questions or need further information in the future, don't hesitate to reach out. Happy learning and I'm here to help! 😊🚗👍
Wow, my instructor literally made me to the slow checks you said not to do. It made no sense to me, to make me stare at the mirrors for so long, or be turned around in the blind spot check, because that way I don’t have eyes on the road... So my natural instinct to be fast was squashed and now I have to relearn it...
Very helpful for me as I was an old to decide to have a driving lesson, all my questions in my mind, are answered thanks again
Thank you, Maribeth!
Thank you for the informative video.

@@TorontoDrivers You're very welcome!
Thanks this step by step video is very helpful. I have my G2 test in kitchener on the 17th September. Keeping my fingers crossed and hoping I pass my test.
Good luck!
I failed today :-( I did not take right of way on a left green signal and impede the traffic. I am very sad as i dont know during this covid time, when i will get the next available g2 slot.
Anindita Roy girl don’t worry, I failed too but I have another one coming up in November. Keep checking the icbc page, or call them. But most of all chin up, because failure is one step closer to being successful since now you know what your shortcomings are❤️
@@x80WildCat08x thank you so much for the kind & uplifting words. I managed to book another test in November. All the best to you too for your test in november :-)
Anindita Roy we shall pass😊

Thank you for making videos for beginners. I'm starting taking lessons. I find so hard what to see around mirror, blind spot, speedometer, forward for many situation. Can you pl make video for going gforward, left, right turns, lanechanges.
Well explained.. I’ve learned a lot
Thank you, Melanie!
Hi Suri,learned a lot from your videos.Could you share or make a video on how to drive with back and rear windows tinted.Thanks!!
Lane changing still gives me so much anxiety honestly and I’ve been driving for almost a year, thank you for this🥺

Thanks a lot, Mary!
Thanks Haminder’s great video, it really help me a lot , it gives me a clear picture & have confidence on lane changing , great ! May I ask this rule also apply to the highway driving on changing lanes ? That mean when I see the whole car on my side mirror , the speed is 100 mk/h is it enough time for me to change lane, of course I must do the signal, check rear view mirror , side mirror & blind spot . Hope u can answer my question, thanks again 😍😍
Great video..thank you

I have been driving for two years and I have never been in an accident, I’m just trying to improve my skills because I suck at changing lanes
Really, very informative
The situation that I came across this morning was the following:
I entered the highway from the acceleration lane/ramp ( actually it's is the first lane from the right that stretches all the way till the exit,it doesn't end ) .After that, I found myself in the middle lane , having 2-3 cars in front of me (moving with 110 -115km/h) and one car following from behind.
The left lane was almost empty so it wouldn't have been an issue to change lanes to the left.However, returning back to the middle lane didn't seem easy and safe.
Changing lanes to the left and then and slowing down to return to the middle lane doesn't seem safe and the right thing to do.
On the other hand, should I want to speed up , I would have to go over 120km/h, get ahead of these cars ... and that doesn't even guarantee me that I won't miss the exit ( doesn't seem very safe either).
What would be the ideal thing to do in that scenario? Honestly it's the only thing that is bugging me about the test and I get mixed responses .
Thanks for very nice video
Hello, thank you for your great tips for beginer driving. Could you help to share how to drive in the rain day or at night ? Hope to see this comment and make a video ASAP!!! Thanks again 😍 😍 😍
