I passed my test yesterday, it is certainly the best feeling ever! Anyone who has an upcoming test, best of luck and don’t sweat it- you’ll get there 🤗
I passed with two minors. Just remember examiners are human, make them feel safe and comfortable. Apart from following the rules of the road make sure you also slow down over humps, brake smoothly, slow down before you turn. Remember you can’t fail for checking the mirrors too much, so check them. Another thing that helped me is positive self talk as I was on my way to my test, tell yourself you are a driver, you drive safe, you know exactly what you’re doing. Good luck to anyone with an upcoming test, you will pass if u set ur mind to it
I truly wish I had an instructor as calm and understanding as you, your smile is so reassuring! I finally got my driver's license even though it was with the help of a private DMV attorney after struggling through three attempts. I made some rookie mistakes, like forgetting to signal while changing lanes, and I dealt with a pretty tough instructor. Despite that, I still make it a point to watch these videos to improve my driving skills. I want to practice until I feel completely confident behind the wheel before hitting the road on my own!
I took my test two days ago for the second time and i didn't do so well and I am too ashamed to take another one but seeing this made me have a slight relief. Can you help me with any contact recommendation of the attorney that helped you??
I am finally in the ‘I passed but am still watching’ crew. The best advice I can give is to remember that the examiner is a person, and they’re at work! They’ve seen people all day every day and in the least rude way possible, you’re not special! It’s not a test, it’s a check to see if you’re safe to be out on your own. If you’re not safe, you don’t want to pass! You don’t wanna be out there on your own if you’re gonna hurt yourself or someone else. Stay as calm as you can, as soon as you meet the examiner you’ll start to feel better. Deep breaths, you’ll get there!! Try not to think about all the reasons you want to pass and instead think about where you’re gonna drive. Think ‘dot to dot’ one thing at a time!! Good luck!
Totally agreed. Better to fail and work on it until you're capable, than passing when you're not ready or due to lucky and go out their and cause danger to yourself and others. Traffic accidents are mistakes that can't be fixed.
I passed the test today. Just check the mirror and do a sensible speed, I nearly failed from driving TOO slow(and follow all Advice from this channel)Don’t let anxiety make you indecisive and slow nearly cost me it all.

Guys it took 4 attempts but I passed with one minor!!!!! If you're thinking of quitting after failing a couple of times, don't!!! You can do it! I did!
I watched this the night before my test and passed today on a first attempt, learnt soo much from here and it's been really helpful. Wasn't as bad as I thought it was, I blinked and the 40 minutes were up :))
Please may I ask how many majors you had in ur mock test 2 weeks before, my test is on the 11th of October and I had 3 majors in a mock test ( my instructor is very harsh) do you think I should give it a go because I do feel confident in myself or should I cancel it?
@@rebeccagrey5598 I passed yesterday - first attempt, but take my thoughts with a grain of salt. Two weeks prior to my test I also had serious faults and a series of mistakes in a mock test route (I even had one serious mistake in the first mock test of my last lesson!). Initially, my instructor even suggested I delay my test, and by then I’ve had well over the recommended driving lessons hours! However, I was determined and made sure that I focused on the areas I made mistakes to iron them out by my test date. Also, take greater ownership over your last few driving lessons. Your instructor should be open to listen to your suggestions and try to go over/practise the routes where you made the errors. Lastly, maintain your confidence, keep practising and tell yourself: “I will pass”. When you’re a learner/new driver mistake will happen, the key thing is to note them down and improve. Remember making a mistake/minor fault doesn’t automatically mean you will fail, stay focused and you’ll surprise yourself. All the very best!!

@@bad867 even Arab christians do use Alhamdulillah to say thanks to Jesus, not only them but Arabised Jews also use it, it just means thanks to God in Arabic. One could’ve said Hallelujah as well and it’s not English either. Why would you feel the need to correct this person under such an irrelevant video, lol.
I passed last Monday. Thank you for all the content you provide. Hoping to get myself a wee Seat Ibiza very soon. First time pass at nearly 52 so it's never too late for anyone.
Congratulations on passing! I hope you enjoy your car, I had a 2010 Ibiza from new for 70k miles. Was very reliable but the DPF on the diesel was a pain. I'd stick to petrol unless you do big miles.
@@egalitarianism9203 Several reasons. I like the style and design of it (inside and out). I have no family so no need for anything bigger. Everything I've seen and read about it on UA-cam etc is overwhelmingly positive. I want something a little different than the popular cars you see everywhere. I've also considered the Peugeot 208 (newest generation), Suzuki Swift, Kia Picanto and a few others but the Ibiza is currently favourite. I still wear Adidas trainers BTW ;-)
Finally, a video that lists everything you fundamentally need to know without making it a seven-part series unnecessarily. The speaker doesn't speak in an annoying, condescending tone with a raised pitch like he's talking at a toddler. He jusy explains how it is without sounding cocky or patronizing. This is an example of a great teacher.
Recently passed my test in Chingford London in the first go. We haven't met in person but I have seen your videos so much that I feel like you are an old friend of mine. I owe you big thanks as I learned almost everything from you. You are very sincere with your profession and I admire you for everything you are doing. I cannot find the proper words to thank you but just know that there are people out there whose lives you are changing. ❤
I passed my driving today with 3 minors. I have a little baby so it was very stressful preparing for the test, thank you so much for your videos! I learnt more from you than my instructor. Best of luck everyone! Stay calm and use logic - you’ll pass.
Just passed my driving test yesterday, with 5 minors, and I wanted to say a big thanks to this channel for all the helpful videos! I passed after 8 hours of lessons here in the UK, even though I had prior driving experience in Pakistan. Funny thing-my instructor wasn’t sure if I’d pass, so he didn’t lend me his car (maybe because I didn’t take enough lessons with him, haha). For anyone getting ready for their test: don’t stress too much about all the little things in the videos. The examiners mainly want to see if you’re a safe driver. They actually help a lot during the test by chatting with you, so just focus on your driving and stay calm. Good luck!
Passed my test today!! Got 3 minors (one of which was stalling right outside the test centre right at the end of my test lol). Only had two lessons before christmas and used those dual control cars twice from Arnold Clark with my cousin and father. These videos were a massive help and I'd safely say they contributed to me passing. Good luck to everyone that has a test coming up!! Stay calm, the examiner wants you to pass.
I passed this morning with 3 minors. Haven’t had an instructor the last couple months due to the back log but watching these videos really got me there ! Wanna say thanks Rich for being very insightful. My best advice to anyone taking their test soon - try to get in the mindset that you’re having a driving lesson with a new instructor, just keep calm and focus - they really aren’t bad they want you to drive the best you can ! Be confident :)
Thanks for the advice. I’ve got my test coming up and haven’t had lessons with a driving instructor for nearly two months now and doing it in my own car, so the nerves are starting to ramp up.
I haven’t been able to take formal driving lessons because of limited availability so have been practicing with my family and watching this channel for tips. Just had my driving test today and PASSED with zero minors!! Just wanted to say thank you for the tips throughout this channel, really helped me understand what they are looking for in the test and how to drive confidently!
I watched this the night before my driving test and passed yesterday on my first attempt! This channel really helped me to achieve that, thank you!! ❤️
My test is tomorrow morning, my driving instructor is a constant source of anxiety for me, constantly shouting and yanking the steering wheel for no good reason. These videos have been a real soother for my anxiety that my gut instincts are right when driving and that my instructor shouting at me for minors doesn’t mean I’ll fail my test. I’m manifesting here that I’ll pass 🤞🏻
Ditto to soooo much of this. Know this comment is 2 years old but I hope you passed well in the end aha - got my test tomorrow, manifesting for a pass 🕯
I passed my driving test this morning! I'm 39 years old and have tried learning to drive on and off since I was around 20. I have issues with coordination so decided to try learning in an automatic. My instructor was brilliant, but I also just want to say how useful I've found your videos. They've really helped with my confidence, and I'm going to continue watching then as I adapt to my own car. Keep on doing what you're doing! Thanks again.
Just passed my driving test this morning. I can't explain how much your videos helped me and how much i appreciate the effort you put into them, even though i'm not from the UK. You sir, are an absolute godsend.
Just passed my driving test today after the 4th time!! These videos have been a great help for me to finally be calm and to understand what to expect and the best practices when in a particular situation. To all of those out there that have failed their test a couple of times - dont give up! Stick in their and try, try and try again and it will happen for you. Good luck to everyone who had a test coming up!
So, today I passed my test! My instructor was amazing in every way, in addition these videos have been a major bonus for me! Thank you for your content! And good luck to anyone else who's going to do their test! Much love!
I really like the way you explain things. Often I find that other channels on YT explain things as if they are really easy or obvious. Forgetting that to a beginner or learner that these things are not obvious or logical. Very underestimated part of being a good driving instructor!
Hi, I passed first time with 2 minors earlier this week!!! Your videos were so important in helping me gain my confidence and consolidating my skills. I would try and watch one video an evening in the weeks leading up to my test. So many thanks for all your hard work, this is making a huge difference to people's lives!!!!!!!
Man I have my test in less than a week - I really hope my examiner is spirited like this guy. Edit: he wasn’t really but I passed 1st time with 7 minors or “driving faults” which isn’t terrible
I passed my test first time today with 4 minors. I can't tell you how much watching your videos helped! Appreciate all the content and I'll still be watching though I've passed.
How to pass? Easy Just keep re-taking your driving exam until you pass. Once that pass happens, it would have been the best timing and that you are now ready. Let fate sometimes just get on with things. You just keep trying your best and focus on that.
Thank you!! I failed my first driving test in October due to nerves and failed within the first 15 minutes 🤦🏼♀️ however I took it on Wednesday 10th Nov and passed with 3 minors after watching hours of your videos. Thank you so much :)
Hi past my driving test first time today without any official lessons, this deffo would not of been possible without your videos amazing content. Thank you
Passed today on my third attempt with three minors. I did have alot of practice with and without instructor but these videos had a massive part to play and will recommend to anyone learning to drive. I will contine to view as passing doesn't make me an expert and there are still things I need to brush up on! Thank you for your content! 😊
Just wanted to say your videos were a lifesaver as I learnt to drive, Richard. I started learning pre-covid and passed today! During the periods of lockdown your channel was so helpful to get me back up to speed or just reassure me that I was doing it correctly, and it paid off! Thanks again
I passed today- first time. As an American I have my American driver’s license but driving in the UK is definitely more difficult and obviously different!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise on here, it helped me massively on top of the lessons I took, and of course lots of practice sessions.
My Great Nephew passed today. He hasn't had any lessons since December. I had to teach him as best I could. I passed in 1983 and was very rusty. These videos have been so helpful. Thanks we couldn't have done it without you
I passed this afternoon with 6 minors but bering in mind that i taught my self by just watching videos on youtube and practicing with friends, this video helped me a lot thank so much 🎉🎉
I just passed my test and I couldn’t have done it without this channel. I watched this video right before the test! Thank you so much for your help it was invaluable
I wish you were my driving instructor,you are a legend 🤝I can only watch your videos and dream that one day I will have a pleasure to work with someone like you
I’ve got my test in 2 weeks and haven’t had a lesson in a few weeks due to holidays of me and my instructor. Watching your videos have jogged my memory and helped me remember it all😊
I passed my test today in London on the first try and I can't begin to thank you enough for all the videos! They have been an absolute lifesaver in my journey. They're so knowledgeable, supportive, and understanding and I wouldn't have passed with them!
Just passed my test today with only 3 minors. Thank you Richard for all the great videos. They have been great for touching up on maneuvers and skills within driving between lessons. Thank you again!
I have just passed my test after 3 attempts, with no driving faults at all, I wished I had stumbled upon your videos earlier, it’s the best around. Thanks for what you do, I’ll share this channel with everyone I know that needs it
I passed my driving test today with 4 minors , I didn't have much confidence in myself it still really hasn't sink in yet I was super nervous but tried my best to have a clear head as long as you have had plenty lessons and actively practising safe driving everything should be okay, good luck to anyone waiting or going for there tests try stay calm you've got this 💯👍
I passed my driving test yesterday with only one minor. I have spent a great amount of time looking at your videos and they did help me a lot on my test. Thank you Richard for all the tricks and tips that you gave!
I passed my driving test today at 0840 hours. From the bottom of my heart thank you so much in addition to my lessons, your content has been a great supplemtary add on! Subscribed, liked and shared with my test buddies. You deserve all the recognition you can get!!!
I passed my driving test today on my first attempt after watching your videos and having 6 hours of driving lessons. I must say, your videos are amazing and you’re a brilliant teacher! Thank you very much!
All i want to say is thanks. I passed my driving licence yesterday in Italy. I gained a lot experience from your videos than my driving instructor. I recommend people to watch how to stay in the middle of your lane, it's really help a lot.
I passed my test today with only two driving faults. I wanna say a big thank you. I watched your videos everyday and they’ve been a great help. All the best!
I passed my driving test yesterday, first attempt with only 3 minors and didn't do many hours practicing. I can say that watching your videos definitely helped me pass so thank you! To everyone having their tests soon, I assure you that the test is nowhere as scary as you think, as long as you don't get into your own head, then it should be really simple. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE
I've got my test on the 19th, over lockdown your videos have helped me keep up to date with my knowledge, even if I don't pass your videos have been so helpful.
I’ve got my test next Thursday, your videos have been so so helpful in clearing things up, you are literally like a second instructor!! I binge watch your videos as much as I can now with only a week left, I’m wishing everyone good luck for their tests coming up x
Thank you for your videos. I passed on the 20th May 1st time pass. With 0 faults, thanks to my instructor and all these great videos on here including yours buddy.
Extremely grateful for all your videos Richard, been binge watching for quite a while leading up my test, today, which I've passed with 0 minors! Thanks a lot and keep posting quality content!
Just passed and honestly these videos are mainly what got me up to test level in the last few weeks so thank you so much for making them!! I actually didnt think i'd be ready but managed to pass first time, after watching loads of vids on youtube. Good luck to anyone preparing, remember they just want to see that you can be safe on the road. Have confidence in yourself cuz itll help your driving and do your best!! :)
I passed my driving test second attempt today...I watched this video and few of your other videos about roundabouts, turning right and test fails....these videos are super helpful...thanks for spreading knowledge:)
just passed my test yesterday with 2 minors and came here to say how useful your videos have been! Thankyou😊Anyone trying for it just remember to breathe and you’ve got this!!!
Just wanted to thank you for all your amazing content! I've been watching all your videos while learning myself how to teach my daughter to drive. We watched this video on the morning of her test and it was just the trick to get her focused, we also watched your two step junctions video and I noticed right on our practice run that she was staying in 3rd gear too late on some roundabouts and was then rushing her decisions, so we put that process right into play and I also made her say to me "I can go" which added another second of thought time (obv in her head on the test), it just totally changed her whole approach to a much slicker, smoother one. ( You are a great presenter by the way!!) She said she put it all into practice on her test and knew she was doing well but on the last part had 3 cyclists in front of her and was thinking "oh no!!!" but she did well, overtook the first as there was a gap between that one and the first two, then remained calm and didn't try to overtake when it wasn't safe.. luckily they turned off and she passed with only 1 minor.
I passed my test today, Thanks to @Conquer Driving , your videos are really helpful. It's greatest feeling after multiple failure. Just believe in yourself, focus on all observations and mirror checks. Best of luck who have upcoming test.
Thank you Richard. I passed my test in first attempt with two minor faults and your videos were very helpful. Thank you for explaning the tiniest details so well
Thanks for all the work you put in during your spare time Richard, I have been doing lessons with my dad who is a driving instructor for about 2 months now and I already have my test booked for the end of October. It seems like a very long time away and I am continuously dreaming about the day I can drive my own car, but I'm sure with your videos and extra training, the time will fly by. Take care Richard, the un sung hero of UA-cam.
I passed mine last Thursday. Still can’t believe that I made it. 😅 The tell me question that I got asked was how to check the oil which I got the answer for that from one of your videos I watched before my test day. Thank you so much for your useful videos! Also, I think apart from knowing how to actually drive safely, staying calm during the test is the key. Good luck to whoever having their upcoming tests booked in. If I can do it, you can do it! 😊
I would like to thank you so much . This is last video i watched just befor my driving test . And its a pass I'm over the moon . Thank you Only thing hellpt me control the stress is . I just imagined test as a normal driving with my instructor and I'm giving a ride to the examaner all went easy and smooth. 5 minor fault and pass . Thank you all your videos really hellpt me .
Hi, watch this video last night and just passed my test today. This video reassured me on many different aspects of driving and it was a real help during the test. Thank you greatly.
OMG have I just find one of the best instructor on UA-cam? Your videos are spot on and I love the fact you use a head camera so learners can see from the driver's point of view. It is very effective. I will watch all your videos and hopefully pass in January. Thank you so much for amazing instructions.
I have my test tomorrow, it will be my first one, and I'm feeling surprisingly good about it! Thank you so much for sharing these videos, they are so helpful. Commenting here to manifest my pass tomorrow!! 🤩🤩🤩
I failed my first test because (17:20) my instructor didn't tell me to 'go the wrong way' if I was in the wrong lane at a roundabout. In fact, he also didn't say that it was acceptable that if I was in the right lane and going straight, that it would be fine to leave the roundabout and change lanes later (examiner told me that). I panicked, and did a dangerous lane change in the middle of a roundabout. I'd been driving for years in North America (we have no roundabouts) and I really appreciate this tip. Since then, I've changed instructors twice, and I have a good one now - but am still learning / reinforcing my understanding of the differences in the UK based on your videos, so thank you.
Just finished my test and I passed first time with 3 minors! Wanted to thank you for this as a lot of the stuff in this video became applicable in the test and I may have failed if I didn’t watch this video last night!
Passed my test today with 3 minors, this video was so helpful in helping me improve my driving knowledge, and actually just reassuring me that I had practised everything we need to know!! Good luck to everyone else :) the examiners want you to pass. Stay calm when you think you've made a mistake and put it behind you! It often isn't as bad as you think :).
I passed my test first time on Thursday with 2 minors. This channel was a constant leading up to my test and I believe my pass was hugely due to the information you give. Thank you so much for what you do, you’re a legend!
Passed first time today and I'd like to thank you for all that you do. Your content and channel is a fantastic resource that helped me greatly. Cheers.

Wanna say thanks Rich for being very insightful.
My best advice to anyone taking their test soon - try to get in the mindset that you’re having a driving lesson with a new instructor, just keep calm and focus - they really aren’t bad they want you to drive the best you can ! Be confident :)
I'm happy to hear that, congratulations on passing!
Thanks for the advice. I’ve got my test coming up and haven’t had lessons with a driving instructor for nearly two months now and doing it in my own car, so the nerves are starting to ramp up.
never thought of it like that (the last bit) definitely helps!
I passed today with your guide . Thank you so much.❤
"You passed your category B driving test on 5 March 2024 in Barnet (London)."
I haven’t been able to take formal driving lessons because of limited availability so have been practicing with my family and watching this channel for tips. Just had my driving test today and PASSED with zero minors!! Just wanted to say thank you for the tips throughout this channel, really helped me understand what they are looking for in the test and how to drive confidently!
What an achievement, congratulations on passing!
What car did you use for the exam then?
@@Pencilbox-lq6os Got insured on my family car and used it to practice and for the test. Just had to install an additional mirror for the examiner.
your positivity makes this whole situation less nerv wracking thank-you for existing happy driving man
Got my test on the 5th. Posting this as a manifestation that I will pass. I will come back with the results on the 5th.
Good luck 🤞
I passed!!! Thanks a lot
Amazing!
@@jonathanlloyd8090 Well done!
@@jonathanlloyd8090 Well done
I watched this the night before my driving test and passed yesterday on my first attempt! This channel really helped me to achieve that, thank you!! ❤️
Congratulations on passing! I'm happy to hear I helped.
My test is tomorrow morning, my driving instructor is a constant source of anxiety for me, constantly shouting and yanking the steering wheel for no good reason. These videos have been a real soother for my anxiety that my gut instincts are right when driving and that my instructor shouting at me for minors doesn’t mean I’ll fail my test. I’m manifesting here that I’ll pass 🤞🏻
I hope it went well.
Did you pass?
Ditto to soooo much of this. Know this comment is 2 years old but I hope you passed well in the end aha - got my test tomorrow, manifesting for a pass 🕯
@@antichrist1975 How did it go?
I passed my driving test this morning! I'm 39 years old and have tried learning to drive on and off since I was around 20. I have issues with coordination so decided to try learning in an automatic. My instructor was brilliant, but I also just want to say how useful I've found your videos. They've really helped with my confidence, and I'm going to continue watching then as I adapt to my own car. Keep on doing what you're doing! Thanks again.
That's really great to hear! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
Best online Driving school.
Definitely 🙂

Just passed my driving test this morning. I can't explain how much your videos helped me and how much i appreciate the effort you put into them, even though i'm not from the UK. You sir, are an absolute godsend.
I'm so happy to hear that, congratulations!
You was obviously good enough without this video
@@pauljames8642 ?
Just passed my driving test today after the 4th time!! These videos have been a great help for me to finally be calm and to understand what to expect and the best practices when in a particular situation.
To all of those out there that have failed their test a couple of times - dont give up! Stick in their and try, try and try again and it will happen for you.
Good luck to everyone who had a test coming up!
Congratulations on passing!
I'm on my 3rd test feel such a failure got another test in 2 weeks 😣 don't think I can do another after
The problem is all the money that goes into it ,lessons then bookings tests . It is soo disheartning
@@danietaylor3306 try again. You can do it
@@danietaylor3306 did you pass?
I passed my driving test yesterday. Thanks a lot for your videos as they helped me a lot in minor things. God bless you!
So, today I passed my test! My instructor was amazing in every way, in addition these videos have been a major bonus for me! Thank you for your content! And good luck to anyone else who's going to do their test! Much love!
Congratulations on passing!
I really like the way you explain things. Often I find that other channels on YT explain things as if they are really easy or obvious. Forgetting that to a beginner or learner that these things are not obvious or logical. Very underestimated part of being a good driving instructor!
Hi, I passed first time with 2 minors earlier this week!!! Your videos were so important in helping me gain my confidence and consolidating my skills. I would try and watch one video an evening in the weeks leading up to my test. So many thanks for all your hard work, this is making a huge difference to people's lives!!!!!!!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
Man I have my test in less than a week - I really hope my examiner is spirited like this guy. Edit: he wasn’t really but I passed 1st time with 7 minors or “driving faults” which isn’t terrible
Smashed it. Congrats.
I passed today and watched this over and over again! And the morning of my test!!! Thank you ❤
I passed my test first time today with 4 minors. I can't tell you how much watching your videos helped! Appreciate all the content and I'll still be watching though I've passed.
That's great to hear! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
My test is looming and this was so helpful.... And surprisingly calming. X
thats exactly what i found. ive been so nervous as my test is in a few weeks, but this really settled my nervs so thank you for that
Did you pass you test
@@joematthews9273 mine is in 2 weeks
How to pass? Easy
Just keep re-taking your driving exam until you pass.
Once that pass happens, it would have been the best timing and that you are now ready.
Let fate sometimes just get on with things. You just keep trying your best and focus on that.
Yeah, keep spending money kn the test until you get to 1k spent while being completely unprepared for roads and passing on pure luck. Yeah.
Thank you!! I failed my first driving test in October due to nerves and failed within the first 15 minutes 🤦🏼♀️ however I took it on Wednesday 10th Nov and passed with 3 minors after watching hours of your videos. Thank you so much :)
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
@@ConquerDriving I am very bad with drive maybe can't be driver
Hi past my driving test first time today without any official lessons, this deffo would not of been possible without your videos amazing content. Thank you
What an achievement, thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
Passed today on my third attempt with three minors. I did have alot of practice with and without instructor but these videos had a massive part to play and will recommend to anyone learning to drive. I will contine to view as passing doesn't make me an expert and there are still things I need to brush up on! Thank you for your content! 😊
That's really great to hear! Congratulations on passing!
Just wanted to say your videos were a lifesaver as I learnt to drive, Richard. I started learning pre-covid and passed today! During the periods of lockdown your channel was so helpful to get me back up to speed or just reassure me that I was doing it correctly, and it paid off! Thanks again
Congratulations on passing! I'm happy to hear the videos have helped.
I passed today- first time. As an American I have my American driver’s license but driving in the UK is definitely more difficult and obviously different!! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and expertise on here, it helped me massively on top of the lessons I took, and of course lots of practice sessions.
Congratulations on passing!
My Great Nephew passed today. He hasn't had any lessons since December. I had to teach him as best I could. I passed in 1983 and was very rusty. These videos have been so helpful. Thanks we couldn't have done it without you
I'm very happy to hear that 😊
I passed this afternoon with 6 minors but bering in mind that i taught my self by just watching videos on youtube and practicing with friends, this video helped me a lot thank so much 🎉🎉
I just passed my test and I couldn’t have done it without this channel. I watched this video right before the test! Thank you so much for your help it was invaluable
That's fantastic to hear, thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!

Wow well done
I’ve got my test in 2 weeks and haven’t had a lesson in a few weeks due to holidays of me and my instructor. Watching your videos have jogged my memory and helped me remember it all😊
I passed my test today in London on the first try and I can't begin to thank you enough for all the videos! They have been an absolute lifesaver in my journey. They're so knowledgeable, supportive, and understanding and I wouldn't have passed with them!
That's great to hear, congratulations! Thank you for watching, I'm glad to hear the videos helped.
Thanks for this video. Definitely added to my knowledge.

I passed my driving test today with 4 minors , I didn't have much confidence in myself it still really hasn't sink in yet I was super nervous but tried my best to have a clear head as long as you have had plenty lessons and actively practising safe driving everything should be okay, good luck to anyone waiting or going for there tests try stay calm you've got this 💯👍

All i want to say is thanks. I passed my driving licence yesterday in Italy. I gained a lot experience from your videos than my driving instructor. I recommend people to watch how to stay in the middle of your lane, it's really help a lot.
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
I passed my test today with only two driving faults. I wanna say a big thank you. I watched your videos everyday and they’ve been a great help. All the best!
I passed my driving test yesterday, first attempt with only 3 minors and didn't do many hours practicing. I can say that watching your videos definitely helped me pass so thank you! To everyone having their tests soon, I assure you that the test is nowhere as scary as you think, as long as you don't get into your own head, then it should be really simple. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE
That's really great to hear! Congratulations on passing!
@Mohamed I’ve done about 25 hours over 2 months
I've got my test on the 19th, over lockdown your videos have helped me keep up to date with my knowledge, even if I don't pass your videos have been so helpful.
Good luck with your test 🤞
Forgot to come back to this comment, but I passed, thank you to you and my instructor.
I’ve got my test next Thursday, your videos have been so so helpful in clearing things up, you are literally like a second instructor!! I binge watch your videos as much as I can now with only a week left, I’m wishing everyone good luck for their tests coming up x
Thank you for watching, good luck with your test!
How did the test go?
Passed my test on first try today ! 2 minors...
You are a legend, my good sir... Thank you for the lessons! May God bless you.
Thank you for your videos. I passed on the 20th May 1st time pass. With 0 faults, thanks to my instructor and all these great videos on here including yours buddy.
That's great news, congratulations on passing!
Got my driving test tomorrow. Second attempt. Manifesting my faith that I will pass it this time.
Extremely grateful for all your videos Richard, been binge watching for quite a while leading up my test, today, which I've passed with 0 minors! Thanks a lot and keep posting quality content!
That's great news! Congratulations on passing!
Just passed and honestly these videos are mainly what got me up to test level in the last few weeks so thank you so much for making them!! I actually didnt think i'd be ready but managed to pass first time, after watching loads of vids on youtube. Good luck to anyone preparing, remember they just want to see that you can be safe on the road. Have confidence in yourself cuz itll help your driving and do your best!! :)
That's great to hear! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
I passed my driving test second attempt today...I watched this video and few of your other videos about roundabouts, turning right and test fails....these videos are super helpful...thanks for spreading knowledge:)
That's great news! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
I passed my driving test today after watching your videos last night and got 3 minors never felt so happy thanks to you
just passed my test yesterday with 2 minors and came here to say how useful your videos have been! Thankyou😊Anyone trying for it just remember to breathe and you’ve got this!!!
Just wanted to thank you for all your amazing content! I've been watching all your videos while learning myself how to teach my daughter to drive. We watched this video on the morning of her test and it was just the trick to get her focused, we also watched your two step junctions video and I noticed right on our practice run that she was staying in 3rd gear too late on some roundabouts and was then rushing her decisions, so we put that process right into play and I also made her say to me "I can go" which added another second of thought time (obv in her head on the test), it just totally changed her whole approach to a much slicker, smoother one. ( You are a great presenter by the way!!) She said she put it all into practice on her test and knew she was doing well but on the last part had 3 cyclists in front of her and was thinking "oh no!!!" but she did well, overtook the first as there was a gap between that one and the first two, then remained calm and didn't try to overtake when it wasn't safe.. luckily they turned off and she passed with only 1 minor.
That's really great to hear! Thank you for watching and congratulations to your daughter on passing her test.
This channel is so helpful , passed first time yesterday with 5 minors
Congratulations!
I passed my test today, Thanks to @Conquer Driving , your videos are really helpful. It's greatest feeling after multiple failure.
Just believe in yourself, focus on all observations and mirror checks.
Best of luck who have upcoming test.
That's fantastic news! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
Thank you Richard. I passed my test in first attempt with two minor faults and your videos were very helpful. Thank you for explaning the tiniest details so well
Thanks for all the work you put in during your spare time Richard, I have been doing lessons with my dad who is a driving instructor for about 2 months now and I already have my test booked for the end of October. It seems like a very long time away and I am continuously dreaming about the day I can drive my own car, but I'm sure with your videos and extra training, the time will fly by. Take care Richard, the un sung hero of UA-cam.
It will soon come around. Good luck 🤞
I passed mine last Thursday. Still can’t believe that I made it. 😅 The tell me question that I got asked was how to check the oil which I got the answer for that from one of your videos I watched before my test day. Thank you so much for your useful videos! Also, I think apart from knowing how to actually drive safely, staying calm during the test is the key. Good luck to whoever having their upcoming tests booked in. If I can do it, you can do it! 😊
Congratulations!
I have my test in two weeks and my nerves are getting the better of me. Watching this video has helped. Thank you 😎👌
9th Oct 2023. The best day of my life. Thank you for your tips and videos they helped me pass my test today and I couldn’t be more grateful!
I would like to thank you so much . This is last video i watched just befor my driving test . And its a pass I'm over the moon . Thank you
Only thing hellpt me control the stress is . I just imagined test as a normal driving with my instructor and I'm giving a ride to the examaner all went easy and smooth.
5 minor fault and pass . Thank you all your videos really hellpt me .
That's fantastic news! Congratulations on passing!
Hi, watch this video last night and just passed my test today. This video reassured me on many different aspects of driving and it was a real help during the test. Thank you greatly.
OMG have I just find one of the best instructor on UA-cam? Your videos are spot on and I love the fact you use a head camera so learners can see from the driver's point of view. It is very effective. I will watch all your videos and hopefully pass in January. Thank you so much for amazing instructions.
I have my test tomorrow, it will be my first one, and I'm feeling surprisingly good about it! Thank you so much for sharing these videos, they are so helpful. Commenting here to manifest my pass tomorrow!! 🤩🤩🤩
Good luck for tomorrow!
Passed my test with 2 minors. Your videos are really helpful and on point. SAFE and LEGAL. Thank you very much.
I failed my first test because (17:20) my instructor didn't tell me to 'go the wrong way' if I was in the wrong lane at a roundabout. In fact, he also didn't say that it was acceptable that if I was in the right lane and going straight, that it would be fine to leave the roundabout and change lanes later (examiner told me that). I panicked, and did a dangerous lane change in the middle of a roundabout. I'd been driving for years in North America (we have no roundabouts) and I really appreciate this tip. Since then, I've changed instructors twice, and I have a good one now - but am still learning / reinforcing my understanding of the differences in the UK based on your videos, so thank you.
Just finished my test and I passed first time with 3 minors! Wanted to thank you for this as a lot of the stuff in this video became applicable in the test and I may have failed if I didn’t watch this video last night!
Passed my test today with 3 minors, this video was so helpful in helping me improve my driving knowledge, and actually just reassuring me that I had practised everything we need to know!! Good luck to everyone else :) the examiners want you to pass. Stay calm when you think you've made a mistake and put it behind you! It often isn't as bad as you think :).
Congratulations on passing! You're right, the examiners do want to pass people.
how many hours
My test got moved from October to early July, so this will be very helpful!
Good luck 🤞
