      Aw, we're sorry to hear that your driving instructor acts in that manner :( that's not fair. This is a learning period and you should be able to ask him questions freely. Though, we are happy to hear that the videos are helping! If you have any questions, let us know. :)

    There are dual carriageways just off the test centre where I'm taking my test next week. So been on dual carriageways alot in my lessons going up to 50mph for the speed limit Which has given me so much more confidence. I will either go left at the roundabout and enter a dual carriageway or straight ahead to normal 30mph roads or right to another dual carriageway out of the test center. Im so ready for this 👍 thankyou for the upload Francis

    How should drivers on the dusl carriageway behave if a vehicle is coming down the slip road? I was taught to move over or slow down but drivers don't do that anymore. I've had to join a dual carriageway from 0mph on numerous occasions & now people are telling me, "It isn't safe to slow down." Am I wrong for slowing down to allow people in or should I be accelerating as fast as possible past the joining car? Am I the only one who thinks joining a 70 mph road from 0mph is dangerous?

    i like the mentioning of checking the blindspot if theres more than 2 lanes. So if there are 2 lanes, is it not necessary to check the blindspot? what if theres a car next to you in your blindspot which you havent seen in the mirror?

    • @l.p3826
      @l.p3826 2 роки тому +2

      You will see them in your mirror if there is a car next to you in the lane beside you. The right blindspot check is for cars that are 2 lanes away from you.
