On the section where I talk about what distance you should keep when changing lanes behind a vehicle, the clips were shot using an action cam, so the cars look further away than what they look in real life. Some other clips in the opening sequence "adjust your speed", were shot using a normal camera zoomed in, so the cars in front look closer than they actually are. So remember to always keep that two seconds gap, and in bad weather, keep three or four. That's also the gap you should keep at all times when following a moving vehicle. Some places recommend three to four seconds in normal driving conditions, and more in difficult conditions.
Note: While I try to make my videos as universal as possible, rules and laws may vary according to the place where you’re driving and might be different from the ones in this video. Always drive according to the laws and rules that apply to the place where you are driving. Requirements at the driving exam may also be different than the ones shown here. Always respect the requirements that apply to the place where you are passing your driving exam. This video is not meant to replace your official driving courses.

1:08 "If you keep going at the same speed as the other car, it'll always be there" Why did I laugh so hard at this?
lmao I laughed cuz I know its common sense but still don't speed up
lmaooo same here
Yeah, sounds so hilarious. I found it funny too 😂😀😀
It’s so literal yet something about it is so poetic 😂
Same! Lol
I've been driving for 15 years and never knew this method of changing lanes based on the size of the car in the mirror. It's always been a guess and prayer for me before changing lanes. Nobody teaches this stuff in driving school... You're a true life saver buddy, keep up the good work!
Me too
well try that method on the german autobahn and you're gone. It's a good method but still without shoulder check still dangerous since the car you saw completly in the mirror could be driving twice or third your speed or suddenly accelerates
@@Baandera- I think he meant in addition to looking behind you. And in the United States we don't have an autobahn so hopefully people won't be driving those speeds here. It's a good trick for beginner drivers as long as they are still careful and checking behind them. It's a helpful tip for me because I never know how close a car is and when it is safe to change lanes. I have to guess or ask the person I am with to look behind me and see if it is safe, which I obviously can't do on my driver's test. This won't work for larger vehicles probably, but for driving in town it's not a bad tip.
Pineapple29 RS he doing gods work 😭!!!!
@@Baandera- indeed, I rode a motorcycle and they always say ALWAYS CHECK SAFETY SHOULDER!
This video solved my 'How close is the damn car?'. Thank you so much bro.
Yes.Truly. So helpful
my biggest problem so far in driving.
Agreed. This video helped me pass my driving test yesterday thank you.
Exactly
Exactly what i have been failing my test on. Sometimes i can't accurately judge the closeness so i hesitate because i think its too close😭
I am a new driver. Its always overwhelming for me to change the lanes ..tips u gave here are life saving for me ..thanks
Same for me
same same
Sameeee
Do you have a license now??
Seriously
This video helped so much I've been terrified of changing lanes because I can't judge the distance between me and the car in the lane I want to change into and also I feel like if I check my blindspot for even a second that I'll crash into the car in front of me also I make the mistake of slowing down when I want to change or driving at the same speed with the car in the lane next to me all my instructor did was yell at me not much help lol
Asma Bari omg same!! Literally just commented saying this!
Asma Bari change teacher
Lol, no I already got my license months ago- oh, but I did go to a different instructor who was so much better
The instructor should YELL at YOU because a small mistake can mean life or death especially if you make a mistake with a fast moving heavy truck which are usually reckless
Barney B Yelling just gives off more pressure. 😐...
This video was SOOO helpful! I learned more about lane changing in 5 minutes that I did with the 2 weeks I spent in driving school and 6 hours I spent with an instructor. And my mother can't teach me anything because she can't explain things properly, she just yells so THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS! Now time to watch the rest of your vids!
KatyKattt hi
My dad yell so much I feel like my ears are going to pop.
Nineteen Sixty-Nine same. I cant even tell what they want me to do
Lmao she just yells i felt that
@@FlameGirl411 if my dad would be teaching me to drive he would have done the same to me
Thank you for ACTUALLY teaching us how to drive. Makes me realized most experienced drivers make for horrible teachers as they’re only good at showing “naturals” how to do things but get so angry when nonnaturals have questions about things.
This video helped me so much. I was terrified of driving and no one understood my fear. Im 28 and just got my license yesterday finally!! My best advice for those with a fear of driving is to just breathe and practice in residential areas near your home or near your local dmv office. Most likely that is where they will conduct your road test so you will feel comfortable in the area. The highway is still overwhelming but I'm sure I will adapt soon. Thank you for your videos!!
Agree with everything you said.
same here ..Congrats to you!🎊🎉
thanks for encouraging.
I'm 28 and I drove on the Hwy by myself for the first time ever yesterday. I took a lot of cognitive behavioral therapy techniques and anxiety reduce ones as well. I was so emotional after
i recently got into a wreck after a woman cut in front of me in the midst of me checking my blind spot. granted, i was most likely looking for too long and as a result- i rear-ended her. this video gave me the confidence i needed to get back out there. and for that, i thank you
$300 classes and I ended up learning these things here. Thank you!
Same here.
YOU ARE HELPING ME SO MUCH WITH MY DRIVING ANXIETY, MAN. Like I am actually facing my fears and doing this and I never thought I would get over the fear of it and now I am at a point where I am enjoying it more and more. THANK YOU SO MUCH. You do such a great job of explaining things so it's easy to understand and it's just so helpful. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.
Glad I can help. You're welcome.
Thank you! I passed my road test yesterday, and I got a perfect score! You have no idea how amazing you are. Before I found your channel I was just getting yelled at, and none of my questions were getting answered. This problem with my "teacher" made me not want to go practice.
After watching everything on your channel I was able to drive just fine... and all my "teacher" had to do was just sit there passanger side! Thank you sir!!!!!!!
Congratulations
This is the best tutorial video for changing lanes! I'll watch this a hundred times till I perfect my lane change. Thank you for posting. 😀
Cool.
It's a good reminder too for older drivers.
H.
Same here I'm currently learning 😭. N I still slow down when I switch lanes ☹️.
Happy Camper
Advice given…
0:10-0:26…verifications and blind spots
0:26-1:20…speed when changing lanes
1:20-1:41…distance when changing lanes, how to determine if there’s room
1:41-2:45…2 seconds between cars
2:45-3:11…changing lanes over the line when there is no room
3:12-3:35…changing lanes in different types of lanes (example: left turn lane)
3:36-3:51: changing lanes when vehicles are turning left
3:52-4:16…changing lanes when parking
4:17-5:00… don’t stare at the mirror too long when changing lanes
Thanks
I have been driving for 48 years and it’s never too late to keep on learning. It’s nice to be reminded and refreshed in driving. Thank you.👍
I passed road test today🎉🎉 tnx for sharing idea.. God bless.. #firsttake only
i drove on the highway for my first time today and this HELPED ME A LOT!!! thanks!!
corey Babcock it’s so easy now lollll
@@AneishaH How do you switch lanes on the highway but not feel overwhelmed seeing all the cars next to you? Like how do you focus on switching to the lane you want to without getting distracted by all the other cars in the other lanes? Because whenever I drive on the highway that’s my biggest problem. I look to the side I want to switch to and there’s all these cars that I’m not sure if the lane next to me is available to switch to
@@geordenecarpio5335 oo i feel you. not going to lie, it took me about 3 months into having my license to learn how to drive on the highway (this comment was when i had my permit lol) i got my license in february of this year and i did not take the highway until i felt comfortable switching lanes on the freeway. honestly for me, since i still have anxiety while switching lanes, as soon as i get on the highway, i stay on the right lane because all of my exits require me to exit on the right so it helps me to not switch lanes so often. if i’m driving for a while and i can’t take a slow driver on the right lane, i just look over to my mirror (if i feel really anxious i’ll check my shoulder) then whenever the time is good, i’ll switch lanes. if you turn on your turn signal far in advance of switching lanes, majority of drivers will let you over. never turn your signal on late because they won’t let you over because the highway is fast. focus on the lane YOU want to switch into and that’s it, don’t worry about the other cars. just the car you want to go in front of while switching lanes and your car. :)
@@AneishaH girl I'm scared and I'm about to take a permit test. Do u remember any questions they asked in the permit test??
@@iwtf...7916 search up your states permit test and there should be practice questions online. don’t be scared, it’s literally common sense like, what is this red hexagon sign? and what does double yellow lines represent and so on. It’s simple! don’t over stress! good luck
Wow!!! This video is very informative and straight to the point.
Rosey Florestal yessss good tips
Best video I've seen so far as a driving student. To the point, not like the videos where the driver has to have his fifteen minutes of fame and babbles on in unfocused directions as to what to do. Thank you.
I wish I had a driving instructor like him. This guy is awesome. Points out exactly where things go wrong and how easily you can get them right😊
just got my license, but just started driving by myself and need these tips! thanks a lot!
SeanThePro good luck bruv
Thank you so much .... I was so confused on how to correctly use the side mirrors, but this was so informative and helpful!
I already got my license but I still watch your videos as your tips are very important for safe driving and not just for the exam.
I agree with the others in here. So clear and things they don't show during lessons. Thanks a lot for doing this.
I really appreciate all the effort you're putting in every educational video you have created!
I like your vids combined with your voice
Xploding-turtle funny huh
Alexliftz Style yeah
Alexliftz Style dork I can't believe u watched this 😂
You are an amazing teacher! Even my driving school teacher never explained this to me and it has been a big challenge for me. Thank you so much for this awesome video.
I personally appreciate you for your beautiful and instructive driving videos, new drivers or even experienced drivers can learn a lot of great and skillful things from them. The blind spots and lane changing skills shown here are amazing and life saving.
Thumbs up for you!
Your the best. Love how you explain every detail. Great Job. You are giving excellent safety tips too. I will watch all your work.
Thanks so much! I really appreciate all the tips. I tend to not trust my side mirrors as I didn’t really know what to look for so I’d check rear view then blind spot and hope for the best. The tip of doing two quick glances at a time difference instead of staring was very helpful.
Thank you so much for these videos! It's stressful when I try to drive but much worse when I have someone who also is stressed because I'm driving. You calmy gave clarification and about everything I needed to know about changing lanes and I truly appreciate it, god bless you!!
Really improved, because you were able to explain "when" and "why" we change lanes. Thanks a bundle!
I never thought I could learn the driving by watching the videos more than going for driving lessons. You are awesome bro and you made me to learn the car driving easier and better. You have the ultimate content! I'm so thankful to you. Appreciate your sincere efforts. Close to 300K subscribers! Keep going bro.
Your videos really helped me a lot, specially with my fear of driving ... I always thought I couldn't ever be a driver.. I got my license in first attempt. I will recommend every rookie to watch your videos, you have explained every detail in a perfect way. Thanks ❤️❤️
You did a FANTASTIC job of covering and explaining in detail!
One of the best tutorials on anything EVER!!!!! Thank you for being so helpful and clear and encouraging!
i absolutely love your videos. i just started learning to drive and you help me more than my actual tutor. You are an angel in disguise. Thank you so much!
Thank you for this tutorial. My parents both work during the week while I work on the weekends and it’s hard for me to practice driving when we’re all busy. This has been a really big help since I often wonder if I’m judging a car’s distance in the mirror correctly so thank you again!
Thank you, this is my biggest struggle in my driver tests, I will try to take this to heart
This is the first video I've watched from Conduite Facile. One of my best decisions!🚙
Thank you so much for this video you have no idea how much you helped me.
Awesome, Carlos, thank you! I am a driving instructor myself, but I've been doing this only about a year and a half. I love to hear how others teach it.....sometimes their method is something I add to enhance how I explain things. I enjoy how you explain...I will be using some of your wording, thank you very much :)
Your our real teacher!!! But anyways I’ve done my first lesson yesterday. at first I was nervous but I haven’t forgotten your videos. My instructor took me to a quiet location where not too much traffic. The pedal is soooo sensitive!. My turns are good. Except I need to learn how to change to first lane and my blind spots. Although I never stepped on the lines. Everything is good except those I need to work on. Now that I’ve experienced to be on the wheels I’m excited for my next lesson. My instructor is a helpful teacher. Not to be rude to him but you’re the best teacher on RUclips!.
You are the best and most practical instructor I have ever seen. Explaining of what students do wrong and how to correct is very good thing to become a safe and confident driver. Lots of blessings to you!!!
I am impressed how you explain about how to change lane. Specially, when you acknowledge why most of the new drivers are tend to slowing down because of fear to crash. You give us the solution which is developing the vision of the road while driving which makes us new drivers to be more effective and confident safe drivers. Thank you for your input! Keep it up!!!
You're welcome.
You have awesome content! Keep it coming !
+Tekeste Gebreanenia I will. Thanks.
I’m a UK driver , this video still is more helpful and relevant in changing lanes than any other UK video I’ve watched ! Thanks
Your videos are so detailed and precise. You explain things in ways I never thought about. I instantly subscribed.
thank you for the video i get so nervous while driving and i tend to look in my mirror too long. this was very helpful. :)
thank you so much!!! ive been struggling for months on learning how to change lanes but i didn't now what i was doing wrong or how to tell the distance between cars, i just knew i was scared and could not really tell if there was enough space for me to change lanes. this is extremely helpful. i will be watching this video again and again
Hey I know your comment is old but how are you holding up now? Do you still use the tips in this video?
I love all of these extra points he made! I haven't seen these little things mentioned in my handbook...
Thanks so much for your videos. I learned lot from them before I passed my exam and really they were very helpful for me to have confidence and best control of my vehicle. I would recommend this channel for anyone who afraid or have fear of driving. it is best than any driving school and it is free, just do more practice as you learn.
Thank you again! May God bless you!
your style of teaching is very fresh and practical
I love your videos! I can tell you put a lot of hard work to them. So thank you!
getting ready to take my driving test on thursday
+Diana Cruz I do. You wouldn't believe how much work goes on a 5 minute video. Good luck at your exam.
omg thx I have been so timid on to change lanes the tips you have about the car in the mirror and other tips are awesome so much , I enjoy all your videos
I am so happy to have found this video! I am having my driving test on Thursday and I am horrified since I suck at changing lanes, I never knew how close the car was or how to measure the distance so thank you so much !!
A++ super helpful! All of your tutorials are so appreciated 👌
Cool
Conduite Facile When i change lanes, to say, left lane, i check:
left side mirror then over shoulder.
am i supposed to be checking the mirror in the middle too? what for, it shows behind, not the side where im merging into. was i doing it wrong all this time? somebody help.
AirPlayRule you can check both to be safe, especially on a highway.
Man you are amazing! Keep up the good work :)
+Alex Larsson Thanks.
very helpful tutorial. Ive had a drivers licence for 5 years but havent driven because have no car, now i need to get up to speed with these things so i can feel more confident
I have passed my exam and took my licence 15 years ago, but rarely drove after that. These videos were such a good and welcomed refresher! Especially the "align the two mirrors" tricks for the parallel parking - that's how i do it now :) Thanks mate, good luck and keep making more of these.
This video is so awesome! Thank you so much!
This accent is so interesting. I like it :)
Pawel Cuper, I thought that I was the only one who is liking the accent. The voice was the one that got me into this series before I realized the amazing value of these videos. Thank you so much!
@rmsrules123 Weird. His accent screamed "mexican" to me. I was expecting an "ese" rather than an "eh" at the end of his sentences.
It must be Irish accent. 😁
I think he's in Spain
Neetha Dsa not even close
Thank you! Your videos with tips and explanation are priceless.
You are a godsend!
Thank you for all the effort you put into these videos!
Came here because I tried changing lanes and was looking at the blind spot too long.. somehow I swerved in the opposite direction I was looking and nearly crashed... this helps a lot、 thank you!
this guy is better than my $400 course lmao thanks!
Best videos ever for driving. Thanks for all these tips
You’re the best driving instructor. Thanks to all your videos I already got my license 🙏.
TOMORROW IS MY TEST I WATCH THIS VIDEO MANY THINGS ARE CLEARED NOW.. HOPE I WILL BE PASS...
Ilove all ur videos keep them coming God bless
Did u?
Wow this is the most helpful video I have seen! Thank you!
Cool. You're welcome.
oh God! thanks thanks a bunch man, you covered all the questions which are unclear for almost all start drivers. Driving seems easier after your videos, I'm going to watch all of them!!
Your videos are so amazing you have helped me understand more than any driving instructor that I have ever had in person. Thank you so much for making these videos.
Tip: Rest middle and ring fingers on the tip of the turn signal lever for quick signaling.
Thanks, I did it easier with your tips :)
@@cleog8878 You're Welcome
Best videos ever!!!! Please post more videos. When I turn to the right or left I usually do wider turns that I invade the other line. Can you please make a referencial video for turns.Thank you, I would appreciate it. I'm a beginner :(
+G25 That has to do with vision. You're looking in front instead of at the turn itself. My next video deals with that.
same is happening with me, i am taking driving classes in uae
Wow this video covered everything I do, im a new driver and I tend to do what he said new drivers do. Hopefully with these tips I can change lanes more confidently! Thank you!
Your tips are true,real and very helpful, even my paid instructor didn't give me not even half of them, you are my true teacher, very smart and well done video, May God bless you and reward you for your time and efforts.
You have a cute accent and the tips are fantastic. Thanks for these videos
awesome video..your the best
Thanks.
Thank you for the great information.. I am a fresher in car driving and after watching this video.. I do realized that I have been making mistakes in my driving classes while changing lines. I actually did not check the right and left side of front seats. I was just looking through the front and the side rear mirrors. Now I remember that vehicles come in the dark spot and are not visible ( obviously) in the rear mirrors when its are about to pass you. Then the only way to get information about it to check your front left and right windows..
I learnt this from your video sir.. Thanks again..
You're such a good instructor, you make hard tasks so easy.
thanks bro.this video helps a lot
Cool.
Congratulations on this excellent video! Could you eventually add some notes on the ill-bred drivers that tend to speed up or slow down to cut one off whenever one signals that one has the intention to change lanes?
+Armando Garcia There's actually a law that forbids you to overtake someone when they have put their flasher on. Very few people seem to know that.
Thank u for all of your videos. It helped me a lot! Cleared my driving test today.
oh wow i was never impressed and appreciative of tutorials but this one comes on top and hands down to Conduite FACile. It's an amazing, very comprehensive and very visual that one can really learn from. I appreciate the emphasis used illustrating points highlighting images in the video. Thank you so much. I hope to find more of your video here.
I always hesitate when I have to change lanes and often, my car starts to deviate from the center when I am doing my verifications in the highways :/
I bet the dislikes in this video are from driving instructors
im a student and tomorrow is my change lane training.....and this so good it help me a lot..thank u so much so much appreaciated
Thank you so much. I almost caused a car to hit me once because I didn’t check my mirrors properly and ever since I’ve been scared to drive so I’ve been lagging in learning. Now you’ve made me more confident.
Hi! I hope you can also make a video with regards to driving in circular ramps (like parking entrance in buildings and malls.) I'm a newbie driver, and I'm really afraid that I'll scrape my car. Your videos are really, really helpful! I'd really appreciate if you can help me with my dilemma. Thanks in advance! 😁
I've got one coming up on how to turn and it has something similar to that.
best of the best tutorial ever specially your voice are you any chance Irish or Scottish ?
Canadian / Portuguese
Do you teach in Toronto by any chance? I need a driving instructor, and judging by your videos I think you would be one of the best.
Great tips. So many scenarios covered
This video is so helpful. I've never understood the proper technique to change lanes in traffic before this. You explained it clearly. Thank you!
When i change lanes, to say, left lane, i check:
left side mirror then over shoulder.
am i supposed to be checking the mirror in the middle too? what for, it shows behind, not the side where im merging into. was i doing it wrong all this time? somebody help.
In the central mirror, you see what's farther away behind. So if there's someone coming from behind a lot faster than you, you'll see them before you even need to check the other stuff. Also, if someone is directly behind you, and they change lanes at the exact moment you're about to do it too, you'll see that in the central mirror, and not necessarily on the side mirror. I've known quite a few students that failed their exam for precisely this reason.
Conduite so if i need to make a left turn at the next light, and it's traffic, i have to look behind, then, side mirror, then behind shoulder, then turn, all without swirving, or hitting the car ahead of me, and without slowing down....but if i see a car there, then i gotta speed up or let him pass, then, start all over,....how is that not hard or dangerous?
i got my license now but my instructor NEVER said to check the back mirror and i NEVER did...how is that possible?
can u reply to my last comment here (it's about lane changing). this is confusing and nobdoy told me this stuff and i never did it.
also: even if i see somebody in my rear view mirror...that happens all the time, and yes, many are fast (obviously not faster than me or else they'd hit me). by your logic, i never change lanes cause there's always somebody behind me who isn't slower than me?
His voice is entertaining lol
BEST TUTORIAL EVER! Thank you so much! I will use these tips! I love these tutorials because it's so true! I was thinking of myself when you were saying students stare too long at the cars before signaling they want to get over. I had many incidents like this! Or looking beside me and the car is the same speed at me. THX!!!
My driving instructor, no matter how many times Ive asked.. has never given this much information. Ive had these questions for so long and they are finally being answered. You are a God send! THANK YOU! my exam is Friday and this is easing my anxiety.
You explain stuff so clear, it is so easy to understand. I watched all your videos and they are super helpful! Thank you very much, you are very talented teacher!
The video editing and directions are top notch. Best driving videos on RUclips.
I started driving school two months ago and I cam guilty of all these mistakes. I am taking my test next week and I am glad that I have fixed those mistake over my time in driving school
Thank you so much for the perfection tips. These techniques are not being shared from driving lesson and we pay too much on it. God bless you and continue posting to help us here.. thank you so much sir. All respect!
