Hi Jacqueline, I have a driver's license but I waiting to watch your new videos because your tips are very useful for every driver. You are an excellent instructor. keep it up.
Thank you, Jacqueline, for your clear and pointed driving instructions! You helled me pass my Slovenia driving test (I moved here from Michigan and took my first driving test in 1973)! Thanks again, you totally rock!
Hi Jacqueline, The second time I drive in highway was cool and reminds me of Juice Wrld Fast until I’m angry that I had stressed driving. Thanks for the help
My way of merging: 1. Automatic gear, drop a gear to D3 or 2 (Or use Sport Mode with Manual override). 2. Using the accelerator and step on it to above 4000 RPM (Or keep the same low gear if there are cars blocking you from speeding up while using the accelerator to maintain speed. 3. Merge into freeway where you already have sufficient speed 55-65 mph on ramp while tracking blind spot; 4. if there are car in the blind spot before you merge, make split second decision whether you want to speed up rapidly and pass over or slow down and get behind.
Hi Jacqueline, I watch your videos all the time, not because I learning to drive, but to get tips on how to drive in the USA . You see in my country we drove on the opposite side of the road like in the UK. So can you give some tips for people who drive like that. Thanks
What if there are two cars in the lane you are merging to, and the first one is going too fast, so you try for going behind him, but that car won’t let you in either?
I have enough horsepower to where I never worry about how fast [or slow] traffic is moving on the freeway when I merge. The right lane of the freeway is mostly the slowest, so I gauge the speed and distance of the vehicle in the far right lane well ahead of merging and accelerate or fall back accordingly. If I have to fall back, I wait for an opening to pass.
I’ve been binge watching your videos, they’re super helpful. I’m currently studying for my written test. Driving has always been a fear in my life, so I’ve been avoiding it for a long time. I’m 29 and I’ve been giving myself pep talks because I really want to conquer that fear and really become independent. I’ve driven very very briefly but it wasn’t enough. So I’m hoping I’ll get my permit before the year ends. The more I watch your videos, the more excited and motivated I am!!!
@@tinylions that’s so awesome and very encouraging! I’m so relieved because when I tell ppl I don’t know how to drive and I don’t have my license and I’m 29 I get embarrassed and I feel bad about myself lol but knowing I’m not alone gives me relief and hope!
That's wonderful to hear! Facing your fear of driving takes courage, and it's great that you're taking steps towards becoming independent. Keep up the positive attitude and motivation, and remember, practice makes perfect. You're on the right track! Wishing you all the best in your journey towards getting your permit. You've got this! 🚗💪
@@Courtneyhuggins1 I got mine at 19 and felt a bit embarrassed too. But you have to conquer that fear! Paying for a one week driving class helped me. $300 is a lot of money, but it gave me a huge confidence booster. Watching these vids and practicing helped too! It takes time to get comfortable. Pls give us an update on your progress
these are unusual (to me)l on-ramps with the traffic lights that make your car stop just before entering the accel. lane. That's be unwelcome in most cases, particularly if one is in a car (truck) with mediocre acceleration. Haven't seen these here in Buffalo NY, although I seem to recall some "traffic metering lights" on the on ramps in Phila that would only allow 1 or 2 cars on each green (the green cycledvery frequently)..however, these lights were further back from the "gore point", ie. not right before the acceleration lane. Good video, although I think some are needed showing merging in traffic that is near full capacity of the highway but still flowing near speed limit. IMO, that's the trickiest time to merge.
I was merging once and the merge lane was short on my left was a semi trailer so I braked in the merge lane just enough to let the trailer pass then merged behind it
That sounds like a smart decision in a tricky situation. When merging, especially with short lanes, it's important to adjust speed to find a safe gap. Slowing down to let the semi-trailer pass and then merging behind it was a good call for safety. Always prioritize safety when merging! 👍🚗🚚
dear Jacqueline! thank you so much for your videos! i love them all! i was wondering about this one .. i have a question ... say we are driving on the freeway and we say the desired exit... do we have to slow down a bit to take the exit road more smoothly? thank you!
I'm sorry to hear that you faced a challenging situation during your test. It's important to prioritize safety over speed. Practice merging on different types of roads to build your confidence. Remember, it's better to be cautious than rush and potentially cause an accident. Keep practicing, and you'll improve.
A lot of people speed on freeway and go 10 or 20 above the limit, that's one thing that's concerning. Let's just say it may be legal to do 10 or 20 under the limit as long as you're above the minimum speed limit and weather conditions permit, but it's definitely not legal or safe to do 10-20 over.
wrong. the ONLY safe speed is what everyone else is doing. if the people around you are gping 100pmh you had better too unless you wanna d!e. the posted limits do not matter unless everyone else is following them which is never.
Horrible advice, just look for the gap early on and then drive into it. Her method is to look for the gap at the last second and then speed up or slow down and will cause backups and stress. Its not about matching the speed of traffic, its about looking for the gap and then drive the speed you need to slide in to it. If you do it right you almost don't even need your mirror and are now only using your mirror to check the other car is not trying to block.
fr. i dont care if i need to floor it to 80mph im driving into that gap FAR before i run outta merging lane. and if theres no gap guess what? im about to make one. if youre stup!d enough to be on the right side lane AFTER an exit ramp be prepared for me cause youre stup!d enough for me to bump up into the lane you SHOULD be in. THEN i slow down to everyone else's speed. im getting on as soon as possible. end of story.
In Newfoundland no matter what you do the people on the highway will match your speed and stay in your blind spot. If I enter the highway at 100 they will be 100 if I come in at 70 they are 70. If I slow they slow if I speed up they speed up lol..... it might only be one car on the highway doing that to you worst drivers ever
jacqueline, i'm a new driver who has always been scared to get behind the wheel, and just want to tell you how calm your videos make me feel about driving! thank you so much :)
9 timtes out of 10, i will see drivers merging first at city speed, THEN slowly accelerate to highway speed, all without signaling let alone checking if they have space
lol i merge at whatever speed i can accelerate to and i merge wether anyone is there or not. no need to signal. if youre dumb enough not to be able to figure out im about to merge from the MERGING LANE well you get what you get. no need to slow down or speed up. im going as fast as i want which is as fast as i need to be. you shouldnt be in the f@%king right most lane. especially next to a merging ramp ffs. if youre in the rightmost lane and your exit isnt a half mile or less down the road im more than happy to give you a free driving lesson by bumping your dumb@ss over to the lane you SHOULD be in. 😃
Those lights on the entrance ramps are a disaster they make merging much less safe since it makes it difficult to get to the 65mph traffic speed . And yes you should be going 65 when you merge
Hi Jacqueline! Your videos help me so much, thank you! But Im still having trouble driving on highways especially small and big curves. I’m confused on how much to turn the steering wheel.
Bravo really amazing and I really appreciate the videos where we can see the other cars - really amazing job and helps me tremendously, thank you so much ♥
You're very welcome! We're glad to hear that you found the video helpful. Observing other cars in action can be a great learning tool. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask. Safe travels! 🚗🌟
What about semi trucks coming out of weigh stations or rest stops with absurdly short ramps who even if you floor the gas will only be doing 20-30 by the end of the ramp?
nah. theres no gaps involved. im getting on. youre moving to the left/middle lane like you should f@%king be driving in fam. end of story. if youre in the right most lane and youre not about to hit an exit ramp in half a mile or less youre getting an impromptu driving lesson.

Can you give examples of determining safe distance when changing lanes on Highway?
Great video, but what about when the freeway is very crowded, packed with traffic and moving fast. Can you do a video about that?? Thanks
make your own space.
if the dipsh!ts wanna clog up the RIGHTMOST LANE lettem eat some paint damage
Much appreciate your videos. Your way of explaining things is so clear.
I want to start trying to get my learners permit but I am terrified of merging. This helped a little, thanks

Why would on-ramps have traffic lights? That just slows you down, especially in a large vehicle.
to control traffic congestion so traffic already on the freeway wont be stop and go
Thanks a lot !

excellent
I failed my test because I hesitated to speed up and merge which almost caused me to have a wreck

what if you have a crappy car that can't pick up speed smoothly.
Short merge lane with one trucj a 1/4 mile back. Thanks for telling ppl to come in hot not to drag heels

im merging and youre moving. period.

What’s with the stoplights on the ramps? I’m from Ontario and have never seen that on any highway here.
Been driving for 10 years, but this new shortcut to my workplace has a trippy lane. So I needed this😂😂🎉

Thank you for the helpful tips!

@zutobi_us when merging should you only be looking at 1st lane or both lanes just in case a car in 2nd lane moves to first lane iracticly
