  • This video is all about clutch control and how to manoeuvre the car at slow speeds to get out of tricky spaces.
    Clutch control is the speed between 0-5mph
    To keep the car slow, the trick is to control how much you release the clutch and to squeeze back down below the biting point by about the depth of a pound coin.
    In this video I will be explaining the importance of keeping the vehicle slow. How to position your feet on the pedals, how to control the clutch. What happens if you over accelerate to move off?
    1:05 Clutch explained as a number scale
    4:02 Normal driving
    4:22 Clutch control
    5:07 What happens if you accelerate too high
    6:10 How to position your foot on the clutch
    6:31 Moving off in a tight space
    7:09 Moving off uphill

    Great explanation, just saw it randomly pop up in my search results when looking at videos on how people check oil on my new car as it doesn't use a dipstick. Great explanation and it actually matches what my own instructor taught me basically. The first lesson I believe I was shown the way of revving high at 2 or 2.5k rpm and then you really see how the clutch works and the control you can still have even though you are applying a lot of revs. Sometimes when doing reverse manoeuvres I may not use gas really in my instructors car, but I didn't investigate the auto rev behaviour and if it has it. To be honest in my actual tests and reversing after passing, I usually still apply gas and we had to used to do the reverse around a corner exercise which doersn't seem to be part of the test now

    Hello, I like your videos, they are very informative. Can you please add a detailed video for how to control the car steering for the new drivers especially who is learning the driving at an age of 65+ years. The problem is the new driver tightly holds the steering and keeps on going left or right side of the road. It will be easy if there is some video for how to handle the steering and how to hold it correctly while driving slowly as well as at speed. Thanks

      small power hatchback automatic cars used to not have very good gearboxes and they have quite a premium price tag here, so a lot of first time drivers used to and still don't really have much choice away from manual, and to be honest it makes for a more enjoyable drive. A lot of the multi-task activities that people seem to get away with in America simply are dangerous or illegal here. I'm sure Canada and Australia are similar tho

      Hey yes but the car will just roll when you come off the brake
      So you won’t be able to feel the biting point.
      Moving off down hill is easier

    Yes but if you keep your clutch at 5-6 too much it will burn your clutch later
