It is great and luck that I could have a driving mock test with Chris before my real driving test. He could point out the mistakes that I didn’t aware that I made it during my driving. He gave me the opinions that how I could improve my driving. I passed my driving test with 3 minor faults.Thank you very much!🎉🎉
I have now passed 7 mock tests leading upto my driving test you’re videos have helped so much I’m doing my lessons in the same car, my last 3 mock tests I passed with 0 faults, my test in in 3 weeks and I can not wait. Thankyou for all your videos they have been a great help.
During my driving lessons in Hong Kong, I was instructed to use only the clutch to start moving without touching the gas pedal. However, when I practiced as a learner driver in the UK, my instructor advised me to apply a gentle amount of gas as well. I believe this highlights one of the key differences between driving techniques in two regions.
It depends. If you are in a Diesel car. Due to the fact that the diesel engine got the higher end torque at low revs. It will allow you move off with just the clutch but if you meet any inclined. You will have to use some gas. Meanwhile in a Petrol, the torque is at higher revs, if you pull out with a clutch in an even "slight" inclined. You will stall unless if you give it gas. An instructor telling you to pull out with clutch only is not really a difference in teaching styles. Some UK instructors say that too. But yea, if you have a chance to drive a petrol and a diesel car. You will notice the difference. Where a diesel will happily move off and not stall just by going at its biting point on a clutch. While a petrol, you will have a high chance of stalling if you dont give it gas.
@@T.K.9 In general, for the most part, the driving maneuvers of a vehicle regardless of whether it is on gasoline, diesel or LPG, the procedure is the same anywhere in the world. The same with electric vehicles.
Loving the bleeped out swear word moment 😂 bless her heart though I really felt for her when she got stressed - I still sometimes get stressed on the road too 😔 but happy she passed! 🎉
Hi Chris! I've been a viewer for a few years now. Want to say a MASSIVE THANK U! your vids have helped me so much and I passed today with 7 minors. My instructor recommended your channels as we drive the same car. Thank u for ur informative vids
🙂 Subscribing really helps us make more videos 👉 FREE Essential Driving Course. It includes how to do all of the driving test manoeuvres, 'show me, tell me' questions and tips on roundabouts www.driving-school-beckenham.co.uk/essential-driving-course.html
I was taught to set the gas and then lift the clutch to the biting point. That was initially. The no gas method was taught later and I use it not for properly setting off but for starting a tight manoeuvre, like an angle start, parallel parking or pulling out of my small car park. But I'm learning with an e-brake that automatically turns off if you have gas & biting point.
I could be wrong but I think she was struggling to get a good view out of the window, she looked really low down and needs to pump her seat up much higher. I think that would have helped with the steering and the parking! I’m 5’3 and have my seat on the highest setting or I use a little booster cushion 😅 has definitely helped a lot with my steering!!
@@worlddriving I thought that too from the beginning of the video, the middle of the headrest was way above the line of the tops of her ears (that's what I was taught anyway!) Aw poor Chris (Learner) - I really hope she passes soon - not sure what age bracket she is in, but as an older lady driver myself (I am now 60) - I only started taking lessons 4 years ago and passed first time at the grand old age of 57!! I love driving my car and the freedom & independence it gives you. Good luck with your test when it comes Chris!! 😊👍
i was taught to not be stepping on the footbrake when releasing the clutch as it needs some gas to get the mechanism to work quicker. if you are afraid of rolling back like on a hill after stopping then put the handbrake on to give you time to find biting point
Learner Chris, Aw I feel sorry for you! There's work to be done and you'll get there. It was most probably the combination of the cameras and a new car and Instructor, good luck with your driving in the future and I hope you pass your actual Driving Test. Chris Instructor:- My Mum taught me what She called the balance technique for moving off on the level, press the clutch down, select first gear, bring the clutch slowly up and at the same start to press the accelerator, as the car starts to move slowly come off the clutch and press the accelerator a little more. For the hill start she taught me the modern way, press the accelerator and then bring the clutch to bite and release the hand brake. The forward bay park, I hate it! I was taught to do it slowly and if you need to reverse move the wheel left or right to get the car straight and then go back in. My Son is a Driving Instructor and when he's in my car with me, there's quite often a tut or a sigh when I have to go in forwards!
Ive got my test in 4 weeks and close to standard, however coming from riding motorcycles for nearly 6 years, positioning and mirrors sometimes go off lol
Checking the tire pressure: in the car's computer that will appear on the display or in the navigation system. If you want to know what the recommended pressure is, it is displayed on a label in a visible place on the pillar B or the edge of the door, possibly in the vehicle manual.
With my first instructor it was gas then clutch, second instructor clutch then gas, with my current instructor it is gas then clutch, however because I got more confidence with my second instructor who had a diesel car, I still do clutch and then press gas.
Hello. I've got my test in 3 days. Can you please tell me if its NECESSARY to put on the parking brake when signal's red. Is it okay to just keep the car in 1st gear with clutch fully down? Please tell me.
I guess the reason she often stalls is probably because she practiced driving in a diesel van in Hong Kong. Unlike the UK where most learner’s cars are petrol Fiestas and Corsas, most of the learner cars with manual transmission in Hong Kong are mainly diesel Toyota Hiaces because they are less often to stall than petrol manuals. The only reason why don't she pass her driving test in Hong Kong is probably because it takes at least a year to wait for driving tests in Hong Kong.
It doesn't matter where you come from, what matters is that you study in the country where you are currently. You need will, determination and seriousness, to like the art of driving a vehicle. There are no excuses. You focus on what you have to do.

One thing I must say is at the end she said it how her driving was she’s an honest lady god bless her hope she past one day

25:38 that will hilarious, it was like a comedy sketch, you probably had that tune playing in your head at the time idk how you kept a straight face
😂😂😂 I could see myself there....the nerves
Really appreciate these videos! Passed today with 6 minors and these really helped me chill out leading up to the exam! Thank you Chris!!

You're totally right. The seat was on it's highest setting but a cushion would've helped 🙂

Good luck Chris … you’ve got this
Im learning to drive, too. I have lots of mistakes. Watching this might help me. Watching from uk
I’ve learned so much from this video. Thank you both so much for sharing this ❤
The most entertaining one yet!

My driving test is the day after tomorrow. Please pray for me. Watching your mock test videos, Chris.
Did you pass??

Here's a mock driving test with a motorcyclist ua-cam.com/video/Jwy5a2tTLGI/v-deo.html
Good luck Chris

The 'raging' (in my mind) door open ident in the video was so appropriate. 😆
Thanks
Chris, how do learners sign up for a mock test with you? And is there a cost?
Hi! It's completely free but spaces are really limited www.driving-school-beckenham.co.uk/free-mock-driving-test.html
Thank you Chris, I found it when reading other comments and sent an email earlier this morning. I understand re limited spaces.
If I want to take a mock test with you Chris, which area you would consider?
Hello! More information can be found here www.driving-school-beckenham.co.uk/free-mock-driving-test.html
With my first instructor it was gas then clutch, second instructor clutch then gas, with my current instructor it is gas then clutch, however because I got more confidence with my second instructor who had a diesel car, I still do clutch and then press gas.
Wrong way to learn
For real, it is easy to get bad habits.
She probably drove only diesel car before.
Hello. I've got my test in 3 days. Can you please tell me if its NECESSARY to put on the parking brake when signal's red. Is it okay to just keep the car in 1st gear with clutch fully down?
Please tell me.
Hey! It's not essential to use the handbrake when waiting at traffic lights on the driving test.
Good luck 👍
@worlddriving Thank you so much Chris! You're very kind. And I love your videos, they're really helpful. 😊
Chris, 辛苦妳，駕駛一部新的車輛真的不容易。
她通過了駕駛考試。
Driving faults should have been marked in a yellow flash.
She’s so cute bless her 😂
I had > 80 hours before passing my second test
6.22 and 7.02
I guess the reason she often stalls is probably because she practiced driving in a diesel van in Hong Kong. Unlike the UK where most learner’s cars are petrol Fiestas and Corsas, most of the learner cars with manual transmission in Hong Kong are mainly diesel Toyota Hiaces because they are less often to stall than petrol manuals. The only reason why don't she pass her driving test in Hong Kong is probably because it takes at least a year to wait for driving tests in Hong Kong.
Interesting. Thanks for the insight.
Chris's car [the one in the video] is diesel as well :)
@@killbit01in the video he says it's petrol :)
@@killbit01no it's not, it's a petrol. I learned with chris in this very car.
It's a petrol Ford Puma 👍
You must think my poor car sometimes
😂😂
chris i like mock test with you
❤❤

This lady should learn automatic rather than manual.
呢位太太應該學自動波。棍波要兼顧多瓣，唔易。
此后她通过了手动汽车的驾驶考试。
she is so annoying !!
The most entertaining one yet!
