    Excellent video as always. Please don't take this the wrong way and perhaps it's jus the my perception but:
    1. At around 1:46 when your instructor pulled away, did he actually also perform an over the shoulder check for blind spot?
    2. At around 1:53, was it neccassary for the instructor to keep his hand on the gear lever for several seconds before changing gear? Could he have kept his left hand on the steering wheel longer and only moving it to the gear lever when ready to actually change gear, then immediately move his hand back to the steering wheel, thus minimizing the time with one handed steering?

    • @AdvanceDrivingSchool

      Thanks for your comment. The clip you mention was taken from another video, and if you click this link ua-cam.com/video/rKqdFlzILZc/v-deo.html you can see that the blind spots were checked - but to save a little time on this video they weren't shown. At low speed there is no problem controlling the car with one hand - but once up to speed we try to use both hands wherever possible. 👍🏼

If I approach from 8 o clock and want to go 6 o clock. I could use the right hand lane but that would spit me out onto the overtaking lane when leaving the roundabout.

      If we find a spiral roundabout, then we can just follow one lane right to our exit - but on a normal roundabout we still need to change lanes for ourselves. The safest thing to do is obey any road markings, as they make our intentions clear to other road users. 👍🏼
