    My biggest fear when learning was clutch control, hated stopping at traffic lights 🚦

    Thank you so much for this - exactly what I've been trying to find since I stall often at lights. The continuous number of demonstrations and simple to-the-point explanations really helps :)

    Hi there! Strange question but my sister is a driving instructor and was wondering how you set up the pedal cam? Any info would be appreciated thank you.

      You can attach the camera to a suction tripod or use tape to hold your camera in place.

    This was always one of my big fears on my driving lessons, heavy traffic and clutch control.

    1st time driving in town the car stall....but will this not damage the car if you hold the biting point with the gas at the same time

    Do you personally use your heel on the clutch or is it mostly a leg movement?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  3 роки тому

      It’s a little bit of both. Heel on the floor mainly,

    hi all does any one like to share any tips on how to gain confidence to drive on the road? I am wondering my friend has 212 hours of lessons from 4 different driving instructor that is a lot of expenses and failed 2x during driving test .any thoughts?

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  3 роки тому

      I personally would take them to quiet roads to get the person very good at driving and controlling the car. Then when they feel confident, slowly move them onto a little busier roads to see how they react. It could be certain situations that makes them feel uncomfortable. Hope that helps.

    • @JamesTravis

      I could be wrong but This sounds like you have been taught to lift clutch then gas to move off, or the biting point on your car is much lower than the one you passed in.

  • @fathiyyarefky6186
    @fathiyyarefky6186 3 роки тому +1

    Oh, how can the car stop when you held the gas and clutch without the brake? You left your foot off the brake! I thought the car would roll back!

    • @JamesTravis
      @JamesTravis  3 роки тому +3

      That’s a great question that at some point every learner will ask.
      It’s balancing the biting point of the clutch with enough gas to counter. You want to try it next time.

    1:15 That black "X" cross on a yellow square is actually the equivalent to a learner plate for racing around a motor racing circuit. It helps faster and more experienced racers know that this driver is a novice new to the sport. Do not know why he still has it displayed on the road. Closer inspection it looks like he may have a roll cage and there seems to be an electrical cut-out switch with arrows for the marshals to make the car safe in a crash.
