I have to say, this man is single handedly putting a LOT of driving instructors to shame. Incredible communication skills, making the complicated very simple. Nicely done mate. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Well said 👍
Based on your experience of how many instructors? I can assure you there are many more good ones than bad ones and they are not just sat there talking at a camera. They are discussing, asking questions and assessing understanding of their pupil (who often is not as responsive as a comment section ) and then physically having to get them to do it.
@@Noveltyuk true
This man has made me understand roundabout Better than my driving instructor this man explain it within minutes
I'm a tourist from Toronto, Canada and just drove a few days ago from Liverpool to northern Wales. I've driven in UK before but I forgot how mortifying the roads are here comapred to back home. We have so few roundabouts, especially in Toronto. Just stop signs and traffic lights. Watching this helped a lot as driving on North American roads is like primary school compared to the phD level of UK/European roads. Our roads are like most things in our society, centred around convenience. I wish I had watched this first before venturing out, luckily no accidents but I realized I was doing roundabouts somewhat wrong lol
THAT FEEL WHEN THE ROAD MARKINGS HAVE BEEN ALL WORN AWAY
It's annoying, our local council would prefer to spend over £100,000 replacing a small footbridge than painting some lines that can keep people safe.
@@ConquerDriving *big sigh* bloody councils! Ridiculous.
Love his voice
Thank you, some people don't liked it. Took me a while to get used to how I sound on camera.
@@ConquerDriving aww I am honest you sound confident and I can understand everything you say
I'm an ex driving instructor myself and I've never heard or read (or given) such a crystal clear delivery about roundabouts... well done sir. A wonderful and dynamic video. Many thanks for all the hard work that you MUST have put into this. Good luck for the future with these challenging times on the road. I'm now a happy subscriber.
👍
a lot of respect admitting it! Chapeaux!
Clear speech, excellent graphics, no one trying to be a comedian and no background music. Excellent video. Thank you
I managed to learn how to drive and got my driving license last year in London at the age of 54, never is too late :-) u help me a lot, i love your videos and u are an amazing guy! Thanks very much.
Very happy to hear this, you're more than welcome!
Well done you!
Well done and good on you. 36 years old finally learning to drive booking for a test has been a nightmare so just recapping with the instructor. I can't wait for that sense of freedom a car can give.
Glad to hear that, im 53 im learni g to drive, im getting better now.
I am 34 and felt too old to learn! Thanks for sharing! Your comment gave me hope!
I’ve been driving for 30 years and would like to point out that you never stop learning when it comes to driving. One of the most important things to remember is that you should always allow extra time for every journey and stay calm. Safe driving everyone and good luck if you are taking your test.
Very true!
Yes, that's why driving is one of my favourite hobbies.It's basically like when you pick an instrument you never stop learning if you are that passionate.
Thank you. I'm taking my test next week.
I usually set off late and just speed
Thank you :) just passed today
This is a million times clearer than my own driving instructor. Well done, hopefully the combination of classes and watching your videos means I will pass…
Glad it was helpful!
did u pass?
Morning rich...i took my driving test last week in croydon and ur one of the main reasons I passed... the clarity in your thought process and speech is 👌.. please continue to do this selfless service that ur doin to our society and all the very best for your future endeavors...I will still watch ur videos to improve my skills
I'm very happy to hear that, congratulations on passing!
I crashed on a roundabout 2 months before my driving test. Shook me up so much. But I learnt from it, and passed 1st time.
Ouch, that could have knocked your confidence! Well done on passing.
Well done!
Well done for not giving up😊👍
...and you've never used a roundabout since then.
Bob Rogers erm, kind of hard not to, living in London. I actually have to drive on that roundabout where I crashed to get to work and home again.
I would say, this is the best and most explanatory video I've seen. I wished I've seen it before failing my mod 2 test. Great staff well done. I wished my riding instructors to tell me at least about 12 o'clock scheme easy-peasy . Keep doing great staff mate. Brilliant vocabulary, examples and pronunciation....Thanks!!!
You're very welcome.

I agree. He did a great job explaining the round abouts
@@sameelabibi5710 thank you.
The best advice he gave in this video about the roundabouts is "you move to the left lane every time you pass through an exit" easiest & simple advice ever. Thanks ❤️
I don't agree but look forward to being corrected.
If taking the third or forth exit you will be entering the roundabout with your righthand indicator on and only switching to you lefthand indicator when you have cleared the exit prior to the one you want. If you were to move over to the adjoining left lane every time you pass an exit, you will be changing to the lane on your left with your righthand indicator on.
When I first came to the UK, roundabouts were the most confusing aspect of driving here. This is the best explanation of roundabouts I've seen. Well done!
Yeah, but if they didn't have them, the UK drivers couldn't come to the States and talk trash about how we don't know how to even use roundabouts. All we have is stupid large wide roads and nice highways with dumb clear traffic signals. Honestly though I've seen many more roundabouts crop up in suburbs and some cities in the States. I don't think it is always the best answer, but it's got it's place.
I'm dyslexic so find visual learning a lot better this has helped :)
I'm happy to hear the video helped.
Me too! It makes a big difference
Thank you. Poor self confidence at roundabouts. No one seems to give me time, feel pressured and some roundabouts are the work of the devil. Rewatching your helpful video… thank you for your teaching.
I passed today and wanted to say thank you, Richard, for your help building my confidence and skills when I wasn't behind the wheel. You've been a hugely valuable resource for me and many others! A+ content!
That's great news! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
What a legend. I've struggled with 4 Lane roundabout and failed my test twice because of them. This explains them in easy terms. Such a great channel.
Well you cant fail them now because you cant find a freaking booking!
Never rely on a driver's signalling. Always wait till it's clear. Your safety is more important than trying not to hold up a queue behind you.
I appreciate what you're saying but you will fail the driving test for waiting when someone's signal means you don't need to wait. However if their body language does not match their signal then it's OK to wait.
@@ConquerDriving people at least where i live; barely anyone uses there signals on the roundabout which is absurd. We have usually two lane roundabouts and its very common that they are tiny roundabout with two lanes so its very hard to judge the vehicle approaching. i could care less about the traffic behind me, I'd rather wait for someone who is just exiting or passing through then i know for sure i can go. Going whilst you assume they are going to exist to the right of you is just not assured and i have many times hesitated because of this so i go when it opens up for me and its safe to do so
@@ConquerDriving also it's about position so you can usually figure out if they did signal by accident if it dosent link or if they are staying at steady speed
especially when you're on 2 wheels.
@@amero3577 *couldn't care less, why do people think it's could? That would mean you care.
wow, your speaking is so clear and well enunciated, it's crazy good!! all instruction videos should have this kinda great speaking.
Thank you.
True
he reminds me of old school british Tv presenters
yes i love it.
Haven't driven in England in about 34 years ..>THIS was a GREAT refresher~ Extremely informative, precise diagraming and very, very helpful to give me back the confidence I was not feeling! Thank you.
I'm 38 and just learning to drive. Roundabouts are the biggest challenge for me at the moment - knowing when to go and when to wait, especially if it's busy. Your videos helpfully explain what to do in each scenario and give me confidence that it will be all right!
Most people who struggle with decisions are trying to decided too early, make sure you're slow and very close before deciding, when you are far back the situation keeps changing.
I had lots of respect when I started driving in the UK like 12 years ago. I'm from Germany and always drive my left-hand car in the UK. A couple of years ago I just started to continue driving in the roundabout when I wasn't really sure what lane or exit to take. This way you have more time to get ortiented which really helps a lot. Hope you passed the test and are doing alright on the road (your comment is one year old at the time that I'm answering 😁).
This is the best roundabout video I've seen so far! Clear and very precise.
This video is super helpful for me as huge roundabouts in the UK are quite terrifying for someone with no much driving experience. Thank you.
This was amazing. I’ve recently started driving and round abouts have been my biggest confusion and fear. This video was the missing piece for me and has given me so much confidence to understand and know what I’m doing at a roundabout
I passed my driving test about 2 months ago at age 39, and I still like to get advice about areas I'm not 100% sure of i.e. roundabouts! Great video and very clearly explained :) Thanks!
The 12 o’clock rule is such a handy tip, will definitely start using that on my lessons
Thank you so much for giving us this quality content!! I’m doing my lessons and I must say my instructor is good but I’m learning so much more from you!
Just learning to drive and struggling with roundabouts! Never had an issue come up while driving, but I also wasn't aware of what to do in certain scenarios, this definitely helped me out! Top-notch video!
I am not based in the UK but watching this for the fun of learning to drive more professionally. This is very well instructed, clearly explained and meaningfully helpful animations. Thank you.
Your videos are so helpful ! I’m an American living in England now and even though I’ve been driving awhile , I have a lot to learn with English road rules . Thank you for doing these .
Best explanation! The most helpful video by far. Thank you very much🙏🏽
I'd just like to say a massive thank you for your videos. I passed my test today, first time with just 3 minors. I know I couldn't have done it without these videos as I've really struggled to find a good instructor. THANK YOU!
"Wow, this video on roundabouts is an absolute game-changer! 🚗💨 I've been scratching my head about them for months, and even my driving instructor couldn't explain it as brilliantly as this video did. Huge thanks to the creator! 🙌 Please, keep 'em coming with more awesome driving tips like this! 🚦📹 Cheers!"
Confidence Level: High.
Fantastic explaination. I tend to panic at a roundabout junction that I'm going to mess it up. I've watched your vid before my lesson and it all makes so much more sense. My instructor explains it to me but I just needed to watch it whilst not in the car. Thank you
Hi! I just started to drive in UK after 20 yrs driving in Europe. I was very terrified but I had to start because where I live now the public transport is not like in London. Your videos are helping me a lot to refresh and adjust the UK driving system. Thank you!
Absolutely phenomenal video this. Thank you very much. Watched it many times before my test and passed today with four minors. Much appreciated for this content, it goes a long way. Wish you all the best for the future.
Had my first double lesson a few days ago which went extremely well to the point where my instructor asked if I wanted to try a busy roundabout, of course I said no because they freak me out and I just don't properly understand them well enough yet. This video was really well explained and has given me a much better understanding. 👌 Great job and you got yourself a sub. 😁
Man, this is the best video of roundabout on earth!!!! The amazing thing about this , is that , is freeeeeeee! Can you believe that???
This guy is an excellent communicator; clear, concise, to the point; no padding of info. Well done. One Rule I'd like to see.......no overtaking at all on multi-lane roundabouts, which, in my extensive experience, can lead to racing.
I've started learning to drive on the main roads last week and was really confused with the roundabout I was approaching. It was on a 2 lane roundabout and was confused on where I needed to be when leaving the give way line. This really has helped a lot.
God bless you, I was so confused about changing lanes for an exit on 3-lane roundabouts.
Maybe it's just me but I have a illusion that Freddy Mercury comes alive and talking to me.
😄 You're not the first to say that.
Driving lessons with Freddy Mercury are mesmerizing, enjoyed every second when Freddy is looking at my face throwing words and facial expressions at me.
@@simple11q 😄
I was about to drop a similar comment when I started watching
you beat me to it
These videos are excellent! As an owner of a driving school, I highly recommend them. The explanations are very clear, well-articulated, and delivered in a relaxed manner.
I been driving for over 10 years and started my hgv licence this video made it very clear for me I knew the basics of it but now is super clear.
Thank you and keep up the work.
I passed my test today and your videos were massively helpful - especially the roundabout and junctions video. Thank you so much for all your work here, just incredible content!
Thanks! Very well explained. Multi-lane roundabouts scare me so much that I actually keep driving to a minimum and will only go places I know. Need to have more confidence and push myself to go on one
Yes, the more you drive the better you get
I do this as well. Passed 2 years ago but because of fear of driving alone and making mistakes. Recently started driving but still avoid roundabouts or hills
bless you. i’m just the same. 🤞👍😘
I'm learning and the hardest part for me is the roundabout rules, which made me not anymore excited about learning as I get really nervous near the roundabout. Thanks very helpful video 👍🏼
Try not to think to much about the roundabouts. Just give way at the line and take the exit you want. Let your instructor guide you on lane choice until you understand it.
OK it shall be well. In case of any help WhatsApp me through +447899500772
Your video helped me to understand how the “spiral” system works. Thanks a lot. I shared my understanding with my driving instructor and he said thanks to you too.
I’m in awe of this man. I wish you stayed near me. What a difference you make to experienced and novice drivers. Keep up the great work you are doing in educating the nation.
This video was amazing for theory test and based on this I passed my theory exam 6 months ago. I answered all the roundabout questions confidently. Aldo other videos of this channel regarding roundabout are Fantastic in mastering practical lesson
Your articulation and descriptions of everything was perfectly executed and so satisfying to listen to, that I feel like I soaked in every ounce of what you explained. Helped me solidify what I felt I already knew. Thank you 🙏🏻 😆
Got my practical test tomorrow and I’m feeling better for watching this video!
That's great! Good luck with your test.
Excellent, clear explanation of what is possibly the most complicated aspect of UK driving, thanks!
You should come to sheffield, where no-one knows how to use a roundabout.
Been to Sheffield once, I have to say I was pleasantly suprised, nice place.
Love the brookhill roundabout 🤣
@@pass-my-test, someone once asked me what the worst roundabout was. Straight away I said Park Square roundabout. But thinking a bit more into it, I'd have to say that they are all just as bad as eachother!
Bad Driving Sheffield lol. Calm down.
Bad Driving Sheffield 😂😂😂
Your roundabout video is epic. Answered all my questions in 12 minutes when my instructor failed even after 6 lessons. You're a pro. Good work mate.
Passed a few weeks ago. Always been nervous about roundabouts, this helped so much. Thank you!
Ive been driving over 30yrs n thanks to this video it all finally makes sense! Keep up the great work🇬🇧
Wow, you're absolutely amazing! You re speaking so clearly and explaining so well
Second video I've seen and I'm now impressed by this channel.
Amazing explanation, before I watched this video, I was too scared of roundabouts but now I understood what is the secret to going out easily without interrupting others .thanks a lot for this video😊😊😊
You are officially AMAZING , well done !🙂I have heard many explanations but you have covered everything so simple and with a choice of words and situations that really speak to new drivers, situations in which they find themselves, great work!
This video remind me the first time driving an rented English car in England. Immediately after going out the airport, I came across so many roundabouts! It was even worse in London. It remains my worst road nightmare for a little while. After watching your videos and practice I had overcome my fear of those. Thank you!
This has helped me so much I struggle so bad with roundabouts and what lanes to get into this has made the picture much bigger for me thankyou
I'm glad I can help.
The challenges of driving in a roundabouts are explained clearly and in a manner a new driver can understand. Thank you very much
dude, I love you. it's so good to see somebody who recognises how a lot of people leave their right-hand indicator on when leaving the roundabout. this is particularly annoying for us lorry drivers.
I’d like to say thank you for helping me get through my driving test. I passed yesterday with 3 minors (ironically all for signals lol), but this channel was a massive help with all the theory and really boosted my confidence in the road.
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
This video was very helpful for me as a foreign driver used to driving on the right. Or Dutch roundabouts are much simpler and work a little different.
Exaquir, and on that point it would be good if someone did the same sort of video explaining roundabouts in other country's cos it would of helped me a lot on my first visit to Europe
Outstanding video! Crystal clear instructions. Plan to drive in the UK for the very first time after having driven in India for many years. I plan to watch all your videos repeatedly to familiarise myself with UK driving rules. Thank you for the excellent video.
Definately subscribed ng to this guy. Ive been driving for 20 years and roundabouts are a particular bugbear of mine, but this makes it so much more crystal clear, especially filtering multiple lanes on a multi lane roundabout.
Thank you for this extremely helpful video, my driving instructor has failed to explain the rules concerning roundabouts. As your video was concise and to the point.
You're welcome, I'm glad I could help.
I'm dutch and I found this really helpful! I recently saw some UK dashcam video's and saw that I goes wrong on roundabouts quite often. I was not sure what the rules are in the UK, after a quick search I found this video. Thnx for clearing it up! Now I know what to do when I visit the UK :) We don't have much double or more laned roundabouts here. And when we do they are mostly with clear lane difference ( can be with a small curb or something).
Probably one of the best explanations
You hero! I had no idea what to do at roundabouts and needed my instructors help. Got my 9th lesson today and i feel more confident about roundabouts thanks to this video
I love the way you explain things it just absorbes in my brain rightaway...your videos are so helpful ...thankyou so much
As an American driver who is practicing to sit my driving exam, this is sooooo helpful!!! Thank you!
Hold up America has no roundabouts
The explanation is so clear, thank you so much. I have been driving for so many years and only now i understand how to get out of a roundabout safely!
I was incredibly confused with roundabouts for some reason but thanks to this i have a much better understanding. So thank you!
The best video I seen on RUclips- got my test in a few days, this has really helped me.
Good luck!
Did you pass ?💖💖💖
Fantastic explanation of roundabouts.
Very few people including my driving instructors (plural) have done a good job explaining how to deal with multi-lane roundabouts. Well done!
16 years behind the wheel, but I'm learning a lot from your videos, keep the good work.
Excellent, 80 % drivers would fail this past of their driving test now. So many drivers miss use & misunderstandings roundabouts.
I think a lot of people know how to but they don't want to.
I passed my test and I conquered the great Cambridge road roundabout thank you for the extra tips
Great news! I hope you enjoy your licence.
John 3:16 JESUS is LORD If you’re talking about the Great Cambridge roundabout in Tottenham, that’s probably the worst roundabout ever constructed... Congratulations 😄
I'm interested, I'll take a look.
John 3:16 JESUS is LORD I live near there and go round that roundabout a few times a week. I agree it is ABSOLUTELY SAVAGE!! Also it never used to have traffic lights!! I know so many people who failed their driving test because of that roundabout 😢😢
Maz 0508 I know right! I remember when it didn’t used to have traffic lights. Carnage.
As a driver of motor cars and rider motorcycles of over 50 years, you've done a good job explaining issues which cannot be definitively or comprehensively offered in the written word.
I believe these objectives determine one's actions: Safety and arriving at one's destination.
I'm learning to drive at the moment, 12 hours in the seat so far. Thanks for your videos, they're so helpful
The best roundabout lesson ever!! Thanks! 😊
I can’t say enough thank you, each time I’m watching your video For me It looks like I’m back at university, Up to now I’ve paid thousands pounds to instructors but non of them explained it this clear to me, million thanks ♥️🌹
You're welcome.
You are officially my superhero on such clarity on uk roadabouts. Thank you
Well done sir! Reading the comments am not the only one finding this video great help. I don’t think alot of instructors can explain it this well. Thanks alot👍🏽
Great video, perfectly worded/explained. I have my test coming up in July and I'm currently just tightening up the loose ends and this is some great advice for multi-lane roundabouts. 👍
Good luck 🤞
You're a superb instructor. Very organized! I'm currently in Nigeria where we actually don't have many complicated roads and roundabouts but this video has enlightened me a great deal.
Thanks.
Thank you and you're welcome ☺
My brother I Dey here.. preparing for test two days time, too scary.. just came here two years ago.. to be honest it’s far different story when you’re taking or driving in UK..nightmare 😢😢😅
Your way of making people understand enough mate ..I think one the best person I seen on social media 🙏🏼🙏🏼keep up man you doing a great job 👏🏻
Have my driving test in a few days and binge watching these videos is definitely helping teach me better techniques & improve my confidence for the day!! Thank you!
Good luck!
Anxious, stressed... I know that feeling 🤣 I just had my first lesson since March and thanks to your videos it went so much better than I expected. Thank you!
I'm so happy to hear that 😊
My daughter has her driving test next month ..she always feels Nervous when approaching Roundabouts .. especially when there are three to four excits
This has been the biggest point of confusion for me in regards to driving, thanks for the clear info.
Your welcome :)
Tbh, I feel confident whenever I watch your videos. Thank you
This video is brilliant! So well explained. It's also reassuring to know I'm not alone in finding roundabouts the most nerve-wracking based on the other comments... 36 and just learning now. Thanks again :D
This is the best video I have ever seen about the roundabouts .
Thank you so much
You're welcome.
Thank you for this! I’m currently learning to drive and there’s a busy multi-lane roundabout near where I live that absolutely TERRIFIES me 🙈
Practise will get you there. Accept you may get things wrong whilst you're learning.
Got my CBT in a few weeks and this is the only thing I’m worried about as I don’t want to get knicker off my bike, thanks for the valuable information
Also I'm impressed the way you talk, you explain things easier rather than using complicated words, easier to understand.
Great video, very clear and straightforward.
