    Hello Dane, what if our car has a rearview wide-angle camera, do we have to look back in a scenario like this? My car's rear camera has a lot better view than me turning my head due to the small rear window.

      You have to look behind and not depend on the camera which doesn't have peripheral vision.

    Hi Dane, thanks for your videos, I have 2 questions.
    1 should we indicate when overtaking parked cars, if we have to move out of our lane to do so?
    2. Should indicate when overtaking cyclists only when the opportunity presents itself, or should we be indicating the whole time that we are waiting behind them?
    Thank you

    • @DaneTygheletsdrive

      Indicate if crossing the centre white line or centre of the road. Just indicate a few seconds before you move out unless you are stopping and waiting to overtake.

My own car (petrol) which I'm used to driving, has got a ABS fault which needs fixing but couldnt get it done in time for my test, so have no choice but to do it in my instructors car (diesel). Im not so comfortable in it so its a shame - do you think theres any point mentioning this to the tester? Thanks 👍

    Hi Dane, Have an upcoming test and one aspect of the test that is causing me confusion is steering. Is it acceptable to let the steering wheel spin back into your hands, or more importantly, is it okay to let the steering wheel spin back into only one of your hands whilst you are changing gears etc etc. This is something I try to avoid doing at all costs but I am often left with no other option. I’m conscious of the tester thinking I am not in full control of the vehicle if I do this. Is it allowed on the test? Let me know what you think yourself.

    • @DaneTygheletsdrive
      @DaneTygheletsdrive  Год назад +1

      If you are at test standard then you should have no problem with the steering wheel, you must not let the wheel spin through, feed it for more control.

      I think that would be fine, as long as the wheels are safely attached to the car that's the most important thing.

    Hi Dane, while practicing for my driving test in Drogheda I came across a busy junction where there is a zebra crossing on a two way street, then immediately after turning left there is another one. As I was edging forward to clear the first one the car in front stopped to let pedestrians cross the second one, leaving me stopped half way across the first one. Is this a fail? This is the route that I took on my first driving test and it just so happened that it wasn't busy that day but I failed anyway but for different reasons.

    • @DaneTygheletsdrive
      @DaneTygheletsdrive  Год назад +1

      It will entirely depend on the situation, try to read the road ahead and try to prevent this happening. It will depend on how the tester views it but don't think of it as an automatic fail.
