你們有road rage嗎？
Road rage is part of daily life in Australia
Definitely
我只注意妳的臉蛋 😆
sometimes
Not sure if can cal this road rage..
But we have this in Hong Kong maybe can call this road bomb lol

"Parallel parking" 的中文為「路邊停車」。「併排停車」是一種危險的違規行為，也就是英文裡的"Double parking"
我非常欣賞英國的交通環境與駕駛教育，英國人的路權觀念非常文明，且人們不會對那些危險駕駛的行為默不吭聲。
反之台灣，台灣是以汽車主宰交通秩序的社會，政府不建設安全的人行道（台灣90%道路沒有人行道）；駕駛教育制度落後，警察機關、公路機關都在散播錯誤的資訊、助長危險駕駛的風氣，逼迫人行要自行避開危險。而且在台灣，譴責違規的行為很容易被整個社會反過來攻擊，因為道路上九成的汽車、摩托車隨時都在違規，社會大眾不能接受自己的危險行為被指教，警察機關持續放任這種現象，助長大眾對「吹哨者」暴力相向的風氣。
Parallel parking (a legal maneuver in parking) is not the same as double parking (illegal).
我本來想留類似的留言，但你已經替我說出了，非常實在的見解
主要問題是在大部分汽車和摩托車的駕駛人上，警察的問題反而是minor problem. 法規寫在那，駕駛人不遵守在先。 台灣每年交通死亡人數約3000，等於每天死8人以上。
@@FF-yb1vr 會說警察問題是minor problem，代表你對整個問題沒有通盤了解。警察不執法，誰來約束違規人？你去任何國家都一樣，只要某個特定項目、地區沒有在執法，違規行為就開始擴散。
英國跟日本也會有這種現象，但他們交通執法九成都是積極的；在台灣看到駕駛在警察面前違規停車，從來沒看過警察開單的，會開單的都是有人報案才會去開。
英國和許多歐美國家都在落實3E (Engineering, Education, Enforcement) ，只要其中一項做不好，就會阻礙其他兩項的成效。否認執法腐敗問題存在，無助於解決問題，只會讓你對問題的理解停留在表面而已。
@@FuerFelix 同路人，彼此都辛苦了
台灣的交通3E
1.#教育:叫行人要自己注意車輛並保持禮貌快步通過
2.#工程:人車號誌共用讓斑馬線貼齊路口製造最大A柱死角
3.#執法:警察專注在違規的行人，檢舉也要算三個枕木紋
在倫敦跟鄉間道路開車確實有戴舒萱說的狀況：車多擁擠，或路窄但大家都開很快等等（地上還會有很多動物屍體...）。
但如果你剛好是每天在台北新北地區開車的人...，這一切都沒什麼...，沒有任何東西會比摩托車海 undertaking/overtaking everywhere around you 更可怕的..
Most of Hong Kong people are very familiar with the UK traffic system, as it was almost directly copied from the UK. When I first travelled in Taipei City, I just did not know why vehicles still could turn right even green light was on for pedestrians.
大陆也一样。。。
That’s American
大陸又學了台灣
我是一個住在愛爾蘭的台灣人，基本上這邊的交通規則還有路型都跟英國一樣
然後台灣的駕照是直接可以換愛爾蘭的Full License，不用任何測驗或上課，所以我很多法規比如說圓環的規則就是看UA-cam學的。
很開心你今天做這個主題，讓我學到一些燈號使用的小技巧，不然有時候看大家在路上燈閃來閃去的還不知道他們是在溝通。
然後愛爾蘭的Country lane真的也是超小條，然後大家車速都很快每次會車的時候都很緊張
In fact, I'm very enjoy when I drive on country lane. It just feel like someone singing "Take Me Home, Country Roads" in the backseat haha.
Years ago when I visited the Tower of London, I could had reached there easily by the Underground within 15 minutes. Instead I deliberately tried to find an old Road Master bus (I wanted a 1950s model, not the new one) to get there; the old buses only operated on no.5 and no.14 (maybe they were gone now). It took me some time to find the stop near Trafalgar square, and the bus took more than half an hour to the Tower Hill. The roads were indeed squeezy. But there was a kind old lady on the upper deck and introduced the streets and buildings we past such as the Fleet Street. So it did take longer in traffic, but it was a wonderful and worthy experience for a tourist.
光聽你說話就覺得很舒壓，謝謝。
Thanks for your information, it is a great video Susie👍👍
最近正准备考驾照，谢谢你的视频“小雨来得正是时候”thanks
Talking about the flashing, its pretty similar with the driving styles here in Malaysia. Just subscribed your channel today and loved it so far! Wish i could improve my english little more watching all your vids, love from malaysia 🇲🇾
Interesting on undertaking, I didn't know this until you mentioned it. Checked it out and it seems legal here in Australia 😄
Love your show especially admiring your accent, hope you will continue to introduce the English culture and customs…. Thank you for sharing !
非常喜欢你的视频，赞👍 建议可以出一集有关足球或者英超方面俗语的介绍，谢谢
偶遇這個頻道，是今天最美好的事情.....阿萱影片很耐看，也很適合練習聽力!
好棒的節目，英國口音好聽到不行，感謝您！
舒萱真是温柔又漂亮，哈哈！超喜欢！
Brilliant explanation on driving culture in UK. I just settled and started driving there and sometimes feel confusing on twin or more continuous roundabout...
Thanks a lot! very helpful最近正打算去申请驾照，只是现在exam都约到2022年去了……
i'd learned my British driving skills from Mr.Bean's driving episodes, he's the best
@@nono-pp6no definitely, i'm living in Hong Kong....
Thanks for sharing! I really love your channel. I have been in Northern Ireland for four years and things are mostly pretty similar, although I'm sure we have much fewer cars here. Still, roundabouts were terrifying in the first year I got my licence. Oh just a side note: full beam is more like "遠燈" in Taiwan, and dipped headlight is "大燈". : )
學到好多單字, 謝謝妳的影片.
At Malaysia, likewise at Singapore, Indonesia and Thailand are left hand road and right hand side steering oriented, but at Malaysia some left hand steering cars can be seen on the road.
最有趣的是我們對汽車的術語都是源自英國詞語的變化，比如
Gostan， 後來知道是 go astern就是倒退的說法
牙箱，就是gear box變速箱的意思
手牙，就是manual transmission手動檔，自動牙，就是automatic transmission自動檔的說詞
I drove in UK for 2 weeks, and it was a great experience. I drove a brand new Audi A3 which is quite fun to drive. I drove to the British Museum, drove to Arsenal's home stadium, and found nothing uncomfortable driving in London. I also drove 110mph on highway, following a VW Scirocco and an Audi A5 (of course they were racing).
Country side road in Ireland (guess would be very similar in the UK) is actually my favorite, as long as the road surface is good. Especially those twisted and up-and-down ones😄
As a car lover and racer, found this one entertaining haha. And your story also reminds me of the song 'sexy and I know it' lol
It's kind of fresh experience in UK！Thank you for sharing❤
thank you Susie for sharing this video, I learn a lot.
太好了，很多方式和在莫斯科开车一样，我想我到了英国会很快适应新规则，谢谢妳的分享！
Thank you for your videos, you have given me a lot of knowledge about living in the UK. I love the UK, and I love your videos even more.
在英国考了驾照 很认同Susie这节课上讲的内容
Susie蓝眼睛好漂亮！！本人在英国留学五年啦，第一次关注你的频道，加油哦！
這集好有趣😆
真全啊，flashing-辣妹那段很逗。
在香港已習慣了，人在newcastle, 感覺很輕鬆…好多地方都有free park, 或者去tesco買東面，之後就會有free park。
希望戴老師可以多用英文教點歐洲國家的基本交通常識，不然台灣人去英國或歐洲開車自助行可能會驚嚇到你們！
I found this video is really useful!!!
Road rage.. I just learnt this word
And I appreciated your mandarin is good! Hopefully you ll get to know our Cantonese language and culture too 😃
This is excellent!! Thanks 🥰
终于找到我满意的学习英语视频了，我就喜欢这种口音。不过好厉害你普通话说得比我还好。
老師什麼時候可以戶外教學一下帶我們認識倫敦或甚至利物浦、愛丁堡呢～
Thanks for such an interesting topic
很有意思的分享，表扬！
Love your sharing, love your videos, love UK
Hi Susie, thanks for the great video. I have been driving in the UK for roughly two years now. In regards (could I ask should we use “regards” or “regard” here?) to the lanes to the roundabout, if there are only two lanes, I learned that the left lane is for turning left or going straight on, and the right lane is for turning right. However, there are many exceptions e.g. the left lane is only for turning left like what you said. We really need to rely on the road sign, but if you’re not in a familiar area, it’s so easy to use the wrong lane. :’(
我非常喜欢的视频。从中不但我可以了解更多的英国文化和趣事，而且我还能学习很多的英文新词汇。谢谢你。
And by the way , you are pretty .
SUSIE WOO 真是好美，美得把我吸住了眼球
Thank you for the driving in uk information it is really useful Ithen won't driving in UK anymore
来看戴老师了🤗
Interesting topic! I am pretty impressed by the driving habit here in UK 🇬🇧 Not perfect but certainly way better than my hometown Hong Kong!
Glad to here you're not appalled by us 😆
戴舒服說英文！😆😆
Living in London many years and travelled a lot, very sure the UK drivers are the most polite and best drivers in the world.
The driving culture you share sounds quite similar to Australia. Flashing lights to the cars toward you could also be reminding those drivers that there is a speeding camera or a police checking block in front of them (behind me). In terms of overtaking, embarrassingly, I used the left lane frequently.
语速真快，英文水平真好啊，哈哈👍
Beautiful English accent from a gorgeous Girl's sound.
讲的很精确，和我在这开车体验完全一致🤣
老师今天衣服很好看😁
多謝你，Susie.
In Malaysia & Singapore
reverse car we call it “go stan, go stan”
Which came from go astern.
Susie, you look great!
英國、香港/澳門、星馬/泰國、印度、澳洲、日本都是drive on left (右軚/靠左行)
really interesting video!
It's hard to believe that this video is really about driving cars (開車 has another meaning in Chinese slang). Apparently, I clicked the video for the wrong reason 🤣but I learned something in the end. Thanks, Susie.
我老公最近在游说我去考驾照（in theUK) 你的这个视频很好。我想知道一些在英国学开车及考试的知识。谢谢！舒萱！
香港人對英式交通是完全了解的 👌🏼😊
學到和了解到知識
作為一個在英國考過車牌的過來人，完全理解你所講嘅意思
So true with the flashing light to give way. When I first visited another country, they flash the front light to say ‘don’t go’, and I didn’t know, so I continued to cross the road and almost got run over
Surprisingly, Japan shares almost all what you have mentioned except roundabouts! We even flash our hazard lights like you do, which is unheard in other countries!
It's also being used in South Korea, South Africa, etc.
You have such a nice and enjoyable British accent :)
我第一次去爱尔兰的时候，碰到了roundabout，我当时就傻了，然后就被一堆人按喇叭。然后红灯我还左转过，能活着回来真的很不错。
在澳洲這些規矩跟習慣幾乎一模一樣哈哈，特別是hazard light的用法
As a driver who had never driven on the left side before, my first driving experience in the UK started in London.
你说的英语太好听啦😊
蓝眼睛辣妹可真是教得太好啦！
Just figured out where you are from, Brighton!Familiar accent! I had been roaming around Brighton for several months there!
謝謝你SusieWoo,
喜欢你的教法Ｘx
free theory lesson thank you
你虹膜的颜色真特别，好看😊
Yes, l share the same experience with you as to driving on a country road of 60mph, in particular at night without street lighting and with cars tailgating you
舒萱越来越美😊
really like this topic even thou i'm not live in UK
I used to have a chance to drive in the UK in 2012 and also have a Rally school driving class (London Rally School)
I was holding a California Driver’s License and the car rental company told me no need to have the International driving permit. I was quite surprised on this because the driving side is totally different from UK to the States.
Thanks for sharing, really useful. I find the road in UK is quite narrow especially when lots of cars parking on both side of the roads, which pushes you to drive in the middle of the road. Super dangerous and also this makes the two lanes useless as all the cars are driving in the middle of the road. China has far wide road which there are at least 6 lanes and no parking is allowed on the road.
It's funny since I find your bullet points all quite valid given my experience driving in the UK. As an experienced driver in the US, I rented (you guys say hire) a car in the UK in summer 2016 for a week - did a one-way trip all the way from outside of London (we took a train from London to Reading and picked up our car there) all the way to the Highlands in Scotland. It was fun yet we also experienced quite some nerve-wracking moments. No offense but I felt that people on the road were in general more impatient and less helpful in the UK compared to the US. On my first day there was a narrow winding country lane with a speed limit of 50+ so I was driving cautiously maybe 5 miles lower than the speed limit, and when the car behind us was able to finally pass us they yelled and gave us the middle finger; I never experienced that in the US. Parallel parking was also quite tricky given the narrow street and tight spot compared to the US, and how people were honking at you when you were a bit slow (even in Oxford). But other than that everything was awesome!! Roads were nice even though a bit on the narrow side for B roads, and signs were super helpful. And by the end I got the hang of it with roundabouts - how you just read the sign for where you're going and move to the correct lane. Can't wait to do a road trip again in the UK!!
so relatable to driving habits in Hong Kong LOL - the parking, too many cars, the lanes, light gestures. Light flashing could mean "Giving way" and also "Get out of my way". The majority is automatic which is convenient, sure, but it's also boring
太真实了，住宅区路两边都是车，晚回家就是停车恶梦。学到原来闪一下警视灯是向后面的车表示谢谢。其它都中。
和日本好像呢，在日本考到的驾照希望可以在UK开车顺利了🤞
日本乡村的很窄的路，当对面来车的时候，确实好紧张呢
With the advent of rear-view cameras, parallel parking has become much easier.
Country lanes are scary indeed during busy hours. Stone hedges 30cm to your left, 60 mph cars 30cm to your right. And you need to keep 60 mph even at sharp turns.
Oh I learnt a lot of expressions that I did not know.
在英國的鄉間小路駕車真的可怕. 不但路窄而且經常是一大段路都沒有路燈. 我的朋友說夜間駕車兩小時已經精神緊繃得受不了. 要找個位置停下來休息.
Lol, pretty much the same in New Zealand except parking places is quite abundant unless you are in city. By the way, we have holiday on Queen’s birthday
辣妹 ㄧ詞 起源自英國的樂團 spicy girl …台灣現在多用正妹（ㄇㄟ）。
影片很棒 支持
No surprise! Because in terms of Hongkongers were driving like that what we named “road rage” it may depend on personality or weather conditions.
棍波/手動檔/手排/手牙 (manual transmission, with clutch)
以前常搭英國朋友的便車，英國人的開車習慣還是比台灣的駕駛好太多太多了。
不只如此，道路規劃也比台灣好很多
Been trying to get a license for years but has been procrastinating for ever and so far only managed to get 10h lessons! I think I will need at least 150h lessons😂😂😂
嗨Susie，蘇格蘭對向車閃燈有沒有可能是提醒你們前方有測速照相機或是警察臨檢，提醒你們放慢速度獲系安全帶哈哈，因為之前我有遇過。 People are nice everywhere I guess haha.
