  • Driving With My Wife - I'm not the best passenger but if you're going to get driven around by your wife, might as well make a video about it and what goes on and how she deals with it! :) Throw in the odd Audi pre-sense to mix it up as well.

      @@RetroAdz I'd not with to totally rely upon automated safety mechanisms, but it WOULD be nice to see how they perform in a safe environment. The first time my ABS system kicked in it confused (and shocked) the heck out of me and I took my foot off the brake - fortunately nothing was ahead of me at the time! It would have been nice to be aware of what the system felt like when it kicked in.

    3:19 I've got to agree about the horn buttons on newer cars - very hard to use properly - on older (pre-airbag) cars, you could give a light tap to the horn pad in suitable scenarios and get a very short (~0.10 sec), friendly toot, but now the minimum that can be managed is almost one second long, which sounds a lot more adversarial or chastising.

    • @RidgwayBrandon
      @RidgwayBrandon Месяц назад +2

      I would disagree, in my relatively new car I can achieve the horn you describe very easily, yet the other car I drive occasionally which is significantly older is so hard to press its impossible to get that short friendly toot. My old car, which was a similar age, was slightly easier to get the short toot but not as easy as the new one. I'd suggest it's more down to the make/model than just the age

  • @thesausage351
    @thesausage351 Месяц назад

    Haha I can’t speak about driving when my wife is driving. It ends in an argument. She’s very safe but is also slow and would rather wait for a bigger gap than to go from one. She’s a safe driver but couldn’t ever drive efficiently or at speed. Which is fine, she drives the kids around and I’m happy if she drives how she feels safest. She knows I’m a fast driver, I drive for work and have to drive smoothly and consistently at the speed limit to make my times. Quite often I’ll move my work vehicle into manual to get it moving a bit quicker and then back into auto at 80kph or so.

    Regarding your "Yes" to the question at 5:38 , one of my advanced riding tutors was of the opposite opinion.
    His reasoning was that changing lanes is a manoeuvre, and any manoeuvre carries some level of risk, so staying in lane two here would minimise risk.

    • @user-ig1xo3om2x
      @user-ig1xo3om2x Месяц назад

      By that argument you should complete entire journeys in Lane 1, even when the road has 5 or 6 lanes each way (sections of the M25 and M8 both do).

    • @weevilinabox
      @weevilinabox 29 дней назад +1

      @@preloadedmalware Strictly, the requirement to remain in the left-hand lane unless overtaking is a "should" (i.e. guidance), rather than a "must" (law).
      Whilst I'm not defending the aforementioned tutor's position on this, it is one of the many aspects of advanced riding and driving training which are at odds with the requirements of the UK driving test and the recommendations of Highway Code. I say "recommendations" because whilst trainees might be encouraged to interpret the "should" rules a little liberally, the "must" rules are sacrosanct.
