Driving out of the Milton P&R towards Cambridge, following a one-way system
At 5.57 should that not have been the 4th exit???? Sat nav said second exit. Left me confused
What a bad design. That light should be on the right hand side of the road to the right. No wonder its confusing.
That stop sign was not for the learner driver... 😢
Must be tricky for learners to figure out if they're supposed to stop or not. In the old days you'd look for stop lines. Nowadays they're often so faded it's difficult to know if there's supposed to be one there or not.
Pic no 8o😅😅
You are joking aren't you? My driving instructor taught me to do this
Not a serious fault. The Highway code says (rule 130) "you should not enter the area unless it is necessary and you can see that it is safe to do so." Necessary is a relative term, you could be trying to avoid hindering traffic behind you that is not turning by moving into the hatched area.
You are an absolute clown. Your videos are all titled "Spot the serious fault", and it's YOU actually comitting the fault. What a chopper.😂

Not a problem. Often the filter lane isn't long enough, and it is more considerate to following traffic to move over early. The cross hatching is bordered by a broken line, not a solid one.
"What next?" They'll be back every few months, if our experience is anything to go by. Mind you, ours - 3 altogether, IIRC - have started from a presumption that we're taking the piss, so the visits weren't as cordial as yours
Serious fault? 😂😂😂😂
Indeed
Both times blocking the cycle lane when turning left? Hope you checked there were no bikes?
Not a fault if it's outside the period of operation
Shouldn't there be a sign in the side road say bus lane to left?
another fault is you should not stop or park with your car facing the wrong way. all cars have rear reflectors that need to face the right way mainly for the dark night but also for bad visability like fog or heavy rain
Only in the UK are you allowed to drive and park on the wrong side of the road. This manoeuvre is outlawed in Australia for a very good reason. And to make it doubly dangerous, the driver then has to drive on the wrong side of the road again, to resume normal and safe driving.
Should've positioned into the central reservation after passing the traffic lights, to allow traffic behind to continue flowing in the lane unobstructed
yaaawwwwnn!!!!!
good one, easy to make that mistake
Changing lanes on a roundabout is allowed, provided the lane change was done in a safe manner. That's why the lane markings are dashed lines, not solid. An argument about position can be made that lane change should've been done earlier, but changing lanes on a roundabout is allowed, just not adviseable.
That's my question - if it was safe to change lane in the first part, why is it a serious fault?
@@susubao2089 Well, unless you don't perform your observations correctly (which, granted, is much more difficult on a roundabout), it's not a serious, or at least cannot be seen as serious. Most common reason for failing exams in UK is observations at junctions, so I understand nobody wants to look critically at this and just goes "no lane changes on roundabouts, whatsoever".
Thank you for uploading new videos. Can we change lane in this situation if there are no cars around and with proper mirror check and signaling right?
Once you entered the lane which indicates the direction to go straight, as usually has a wide painted straight arrow; at this point changing lane will result in getting a serious driving fault. Many thanks for watching!
@ Thank you for your reply!
Why the sat-nav said keep right, and then cross the roundabout second exit? why didnt it say keep left ? Could anyone explain this please
yes please, I also would be grateful if someone explains this
It’s because the satnav bases the route on Google Maps. And the Google Maps AI generated wrong road marking at this junction, probably because of the poor road marking quality at the moment when the satellite image was taken.
Just passed my exam yesterday 1st attempt!! Thank you for these videos.
2nd exit you are on the wrong lane
Wondering if there's a car coming from the other side of the road, where should you wait? before the traffic lights or after it because I can't see a junction yellow box.
Thank you for these videos. They helped me greatly in my preparation to the driving test which I have passed. My test route was only in Cambridge possibly because it was on a heavy raining day. I had to parallel park, emergency stop, forward bay park and drive for close to 45 minutes.
does the examiner really expects us to park next to a another car? I mean, I am doing it, but this Tesco car park is a bit tight...
A
I enjoy this video but i think if ignore the music then it will be more better
Love this video
When I do this I exit on 3rd to Milton... but the bit before is very helpful
Dooley Motorway
Apart from the A14 it's a lot easier from the route I had to take years ago e.g around mill road.
seem failed, you ride on the bus lane
amazing videos thank you im sure this will help me a lot, do you have videos without music please
please please upload a route which includes Milton Road exit to Milton roundabout. I am not sure about the bus lane there just after the busway. I see cars driving through and I am not sure they are supposed to do so. The markings are almost non existent, but even so....we, the students, must know and remember.
car in A Real practice test or Mock test from Teacher?
how do you know whether to keep left or keep right, will the examiner tell you?
Hi just wanted to say thanks for putting all these videos out on youtube, they have been an extremely useful resource for learning the possible test routes when i haven't had time to drive all of them, just passed today and ended up driving along one of these routes, felt much more prepared for it thanks to you all, cheers!
Hi, i will have my driving test in cambridge, where do you usually do the manoeuvres? Forward and reverse? Is it in Milton p&r? Thanks
Hi CDA, I wanted to say a huge thanks for making all these videos. They are extremely helpful to watch alongside the lessons and it’s clear that a lot of work has gone into them. Thanks for all that you’re doing to help make the roads safer one learner at a time and giving people life-changing skills. The whole team is fantastic. Please keep up the great work!
So helpful
Thanks for this, was looking for one that went back into cambridge and included that one way system! Very helpful for preparing.
Second exit???
Thank you so much for this. Been in this route this afternoon for my lesson. It was indeed very interesting for all the give ways, because somehow, i miss which one will be the first. but so far, i didn't fail to notice the bigger arrows, which at the end of my lesson, i always ask my instructor. Keep it up.. God bless!!!
Very helpful
why 14 mintus ? Entire test is 40 mintus right?
Hello and many thanks for stopping by. From the 40 minutes duration of the practical driving test, 20 minutes are assigned for independent driving. During the drive, the examiner will ask you to park up on the left when it’s safe to do so and they will proceed to tell you that the independent driving part will begin. Our video is a sample to help students to have a better idea on what is expected from them during the independent driving.
The sound is to loud. Can't hear the voice
This is the road i simply scared my a#$ off the last time my instructor took me here. As the lone(@s$h&le) driver got a wrong turn in front of us.😣
