I saw you this morning near the still creek Dr

The best!!! Thank you very much!!!

Hello, thank you for this helpful content. Will class 7 road test will test enter and exit highway? 🙏🏼

Watched your video and passed class 4 on first try! Thank you for making this video. A car tailed us during my road test and was caught by the examiner. The examiner didn't say it explicitly but I know the tailing driver likely got an automatically fail because of it. Don't try it boys. I did a really bad parallel parking, with about 1/2 meter away from curb after backing in. Fortunately there was no car behind so I can back up further to align my car closer to the curb. The examiner didn't seem to care. When I do back up I try not to rely on back camera screen but I keep forgetting it so I end up still looking at it like 60% of the time. I keep checking right mirror and looking through back window. It was very awkward as I am not used to back up this way for a long long time. You have to fight your urge to keep staring at backup camera! I did plenty of 360 checks before driving and shoulder checks while driving. When someone was close to my car, I waited until they walked away before moving. I only move the car when no one was around and only after a 360 check. Good luck I hope you guys all pass on first try.

Thank you for your suggestion, today I passed the road test on 4399 Burnaby! July 19th 2024, after 2 failed test May and June in 4399, I practice, practice, practice and never give up. Finally passed, appreciate for your video, good man have a wonderful life!

Passed my road test today at this exact location! I watched this video yesterday and I did find it helpful - a great refresher! Went on the highway and took the willingdon exit.

I passed my class 5 first try because of this video! Thanks so much! :)

Question, if you hit the curb, will that be a fail on class 5 road test?

Question: let’s say that I’m turning right at a red light. And the opposite side’s cars have a protected left turn with green arrow. Can I just rolling out a little bit and become a fully stop? Or it’s recommended during a road test that I should just remain stopped until it’s clear? Thank you!

Thanks

Thank you sir

Can an EV drive in Willingdon (6 occupancy) lane?

They say you can enter a bike line meters before the dotted lines to prevent the flow of traffic from slowing down too much, is that true (USA )??

So in residential areas, unless posted is 50km/h as the limit? Should I drive between 40-45 during them?

You bring me calm, today is my test.

Thanks for the helpful content!

It is very successful and essential information. Thanks 🙏🌹

"Cyclists are not allowed to ride on sidewalks" "Why are you riding in the middle of the freaking road" You have a screw loose.

That actually was sooo helpful. It’s the one thing that always gave me anxiety is not understanding the traffic lights and taking rights

Why are the cars on the left side of the road in the 2-way stop sign example?

I agree with some points, but not with everything. Yes, bicyclists should never ride on the sidewalk. It's a side*walk*, not a side*bike* or a side*park your car*(yes, I see that all the f***ing time in my city). I appreciate that you checked the bike crossings before turning. I see too many drivers who don't do that, and I've nearly been hooked many times by drivers who were not paying attention, even when I followed the laws. I agree that we need to use hand signals, especially when turning left since that is where drivers usually pass bicyclists. Here's where I somewhat disagree. When engineers and traffic planners design infrastructure, they often prioritize cars, and bicyclists are an afterthought if any thought at all. It's changing some, but the infrastructure often isn't built with their safety in mind. Because of that, there are sometimes situations where it's safer to stop at the red light, make sure cross traffic is clear, and then go before your light turns green. To give you an example, my city has several intersections where someone who wasn't thinking designed a bike lane that switches sides of the road at the intersection. So, in that case, your options as a bicyclist are to either go on green and stop biking in the bike lane until traffic going with you is clear(God help you if it's rush hour) or, when you come to that intersection or the intersection before, you go through the red light when cross traffic is clear so that you have a clear path to get across to the other side where the bike lane has switched. Another thing is that, because of how bicycles work on momentum and take more effort to get going if they're not electric, some states have an Idaho stop rule, which means bicyclists are legally allowed to treat stop signs as yield signs and stop lights as stop signs. When it comes to "taking the lane" as you showed in a clip of someone riding down the middle, some situations necessitate that, like riding down narrow one-way roads, because we know if we go to the side drivers will attempt to pass us dangerously close. Where I live, Pennsylvania, drivers are required to give bicyclists 4 feet of passing distance. It varies by state. Here's where I strongly disagree. I don't know if it was your intention to imply that bicyclists are the cause of the bicyclists vs cars friction and drama we have going on in some countries, but that's how it came across to me. Yes, there are bicyclists who are inconsiderate assholes. They'll bike the wrong way in traffic, ride on sidewalks, and pop wheelies in traffic, but they don't often instigate animosity. I have experienced drivers who intentionally swerved into my path, threatened to run me over, threw drinks at me for stopping for a pedestrian in a crosswalk, filmed themselves throwing a drink at me while not having a license plate on their car, told me I could get shot, waited til I was crossing the intersection before running their red light straight at me, told me to bike into oncoming traffic, etc. My friend and his friend were biking, signaled a left turn in advance of the turn, and the driver behind them still tried to pass on their left as they were turning. The driver hit my friend's friend, got out of the car, and threatened to run them over again. Today, I was biking with a friend in the lane. We were going straight and had no stop sign or stop light, so the driver pulling out of the shopping center lot needed to yield to us. She didn't. She nearly hit my friend's back wheel, and she cut me off. She then rolled down her window and yelled, "move, bitch!". People become aggressive when they get behind the wheel of a car, and many of them lose patience and their sense of humanity.

how can you be a driving instructor and NOT know the laws about safe passing, hand signals and road usage?? and why is an "instructor" pissing and moaning online (and calling legal road users a "pain in the ass" and "idiots" when you should be educating drivers on how to share the road? Doesn't reflect well on your school. The kid riding down the middle of the street has every right to occupy the lane and should in that instance, due to all the parked cars - they have to react to someone backing out without looking. And your pass was not 1m from your mirror to the cyclist. And you might want to check legal hand signals - in BC, right arm out is a right signal. The bent left arm is an alternate version of the right turn signal.

I live on a street corner and see cars every day and night running the stop sign. People in cars also think they have some kind of privilege because they think everything is built for them only. As others said, a cyclist wont kill anyone with their bike (very unlikely) compared to poluting, noisy and heavy cars. City must change to reduce car use and make this "cyclist behaviour" a non-issue.

I'm waiting for the pedal attachments to motorcycles so then they don't have to have a license.

2:30 - "Supposed to come to a full complete stop. Just like we do." - as the driver fails to come to a full complete stop and slow rolls the stop. At least in the US, in a number of states, you are now permitted as a cyclist to treat stops like a yield and may proceed if safe to do so. Given this cyclists speed I believe there was ample time for them to assess the intersection before entering and obviously there were no adverse effects. Honestly, had the cyclist come to a full, complete stop I'm sure you'd complain even more aboot how much they were holding up traffic.

Cars are what makes roads dangerous for the rest of people trying to live their lives

New rules for cyclists that this province enacted is just another example of understanding the issue. They don't pay attention to the rules of the road and expect everyone else to be aware of them.

Take my test Friday at age 34 I hope I Don fail

Bro i love ur videos i legit just binged watched like most of them like a tv show i just got my N 3 weeks ago but i am trying to get better so i can get ready for class 5!

Should I use my both hands on the wheel all the time? I failed my road test today, the only reason is that I didn’t put my both hands on the steering wheel all the time😢

If you want to cycle on public roads, you should have to get a cyclists license. Anyone who uses the roads publicly needs to have a license, why not cyclists? I'd be willing to share the road, if they'd be willing to pay the appropriate fees the rest of us do. That means that they'd have to be educated on the rules of the road in order to pass. Just like the rest of us do. Or you know, make it legal for them to ride on the sidewalk. Look at all those sidewalks full of people in your video for example. Certainly allowing cyclists to use them would be unthinkable. The foot-traffic is just too high, people might get hurt! But dumping cyclists on the main road to slow others down and foment road rage in other drivers, that's much safer and progressive :)

This is the most car-brained based view I've ever seen

Funny hearing someone saying "cyclists don't care they think they have special privileges" (5:05) Right after saying "why are you riding in the middle of the freaking road" (4:24) because they think as a car driver than only cars have the privilege of being in the center of a lane. And to top it off, then affirm "you are a vehicle when you are on the road, you are treated as one" (6:29), well apparently they are not really if you think they should be in the gutter for you to "safely pass" them, note that it means that you are asking them to let you, a complete stranger, decide of their safety. North America is really backward. And you know the running red lights thing. Well if you had actual bike infrastructure like having dedicated bike lights that let them get up to speed or bike buffer in front of the cars so they can position themselves in front of the cars to force them to not accelerate at the same rate, then maybe they wouldn't run red lights. Ultimately it is the same thing as staying in the middle of a lane. It is about being in control of their risk taking and not let someone else do it. If you are aware when going into an empty red light crossing because it is at the moment where all direction are at red. Then yes it is completely safer than to stop, and try to accelerate when there is a platoon of cars rushing by you to be stuck at the next light. Don't it strikes you as odd that all the cases you show us are actually when the crossing was quite empty and with no cars coming from the sides ? You might want to take the hint then. A car running a red light is dangerous to everybody on the road but a cyclist killing or permanently injuring anyone but themselves is a statistical oddity.

I can somewhat understand the bitterness but all I can think about is how much better every single one of those situations would have been if there was just a single piece of half decent cycling infrastructure, which prevents the intermingling of cyclists and motorists, anywhere. (Mostly) not defending the behavior in the video however I think all of this is a symptom of ineffective urban planning.

suppose to use your left arm to signal going right ? it's whatver you prefer and most people assume you want to stop when using the left arm to signal right..

car drivers would do the same thing if they didn''t have tags.

I much prefer pointing exactly where I'm going when I turn on a bicycle.

cyclists i call em cychoes)

Lol I love watching your videos because you drive in familiar areas, it would be great to spot you around some time!

i passed my first attempt at burnaby lougheed i wanna give a major shoutout to this channel for the best tips and tricks and what to do and what not to and what to expect aswell, thank you for your time and help on this really appreciate this channel!

Hi Sebastian, I passed my road test class 5 here in Victoria BC 4 days ago by repeating this video. Thanks a lot...🥰🙏👏

is it okay to do shoulder check a bit early just like 5 seconds

Simple but clear videos. Followed your channel already. 👍

failed my test today because of inconsistent 360 and shoulder checks 😥

Thanks for the educational video! Two questions if you don't mind. 1) At 6:37 after you turned onto Grandview Highway, I am not able to find any speed limit sign anywhere on google map, is it safe to assume we will keep driving at 50km/h? 2) At 9:54 there is the "School zone" sign on the right, does that mean we have to reduce the speed to 30km/h? Thank you!

passed my class 5 test in Burnaby this week, first attempt! thank you so much, your videos saved me!! just going through a possible test route like this was super useful and helped me get in the right mindset and not be super nervous on the day.

"He forgot his dildo, I dunno.." That was soo unexpected, but brought a much needed smile.. =)

this was super awesome and helpful, i passed my test on Tuesday in Burnaby, route was very different but everything I saw here helped me a lot, one of the best explainers I have seen, thank you!

❤

Any tips on how to do this if you have obstacles in front of the parking space (cars way closer than this example, a wall, ...) Barely a car door distance between you and the free space you have to maneuver
