Always lock steering when Park. Remove the foot completely from the clutch pedal when driving. use low beam on highways. Use air conditioner blower on lower mode for better cooling.. (personal experience).

@@zyriuz2 you mean "this is why we need better driving insturctors and people who are actually paying attention and take responsibility for their actions"?
As a retired driving instructor in the UK I did teach my pupils what you have said except, you can hold the steering wheel at 10 & 2 or 9 & 3 or anywhere in between. Regarding the brake checks not all drivers have facilities to check under the car, but by regularly check brake fluid levels will identify a problem, also squealing or screeching brakes doesn’t always mean there is a problem.
Not usually turn signals is the most moronic thing I’ve heard. I had a habit of using them before I even started driving. They’re so important. If you “forget” your turn signals you need to get tf off the road.
when i learned to drive my instructer said if you correctly position your car on the road other drivers should knoe what you are doing its called road craft and very few drivers thes days have it
A really important rule is to not TAILGATE!!!, and respect the 2 second interval rule, 2 second: dry warm road 4 second: wet road 6 second: snow condition 8 second: freezing rain To calculate if you have a good distance with the car in front of, take an object on the side of the road, when the car in front of you pass it, start calculating second, up to when you pass the object. There is also a security distance even when you are STOP at a TRAFFIC LIGHT, you must see the base of the tire of car in front of you. So that if the driver in front of you drive manual transmission car, especially in a hill, will get less chance to break your car if he fail his acceleration. Also, leaving that space with the car in front of you will prevent you from crashing into the car in front of you if some one crashes into your back
If stopped on a hill in a manual transmission now days cars come with hill assist. My 2019 kia has that and I flipping love it! I also have a tendency to rock my car back and forth if I'm stopped on a uphill.
Check your tires on air frequently, same with the oil-meter. Soft tires cots you more fuel. Keep your windows clean on the in and outside, especially in wintertime. Always have a blanket with you in the back of your car, in case your car have failures in wintertime....❤️
SO TRUE !!! In New York there are many vehicles are driving with halogen super bright lights. They ALWAYS BLIND MY VISION going in opposite direction & I CAN'T SEE the ROAD IN FRONT OF ME !!!

Well, 1, 3 and 4 are taught and checked before you are allowed to release the handbreak. That's the basics. Number 2 is irrelevant to your average driver. Even if you told them to check their breaks, they would have no idea which parts to inspect and what should they look like. If you happen to know how your breaking system works, and where the potential faults are, some operations, such as balancing the breaks, are best left for a professional. Better advice to the average driver: 1. Do not use mobile while driving, not even at red lights 2. Check your tires regularly. If your country experiences winter, get some proper winter tires (studded for icy roads, friction/snow tires for snow and mostly ice-free roads) Proper tires may cost you $500 or more, but they may prevent material damage or even save a life. 3. Keep your distance to the car in front of you 4. Adjust your speed to the conditions 5. If you are a new(ish) driver or have new set of (winter)tires, go try 'em out on an icy/snowy and empty parking lot when no-one's around, or go to a slippery test track (People in the Nordic countries know what I mean, as visiting one is mandatory in order to get a license) 6. Keep calm and always keep spare wheel, high visibility vest, lamp/torch, warning triangle (preferably in a red casing) in your vehicle, and a bit of common sense between the driver's seat and the steering wheel.
It's weird that people need to be told this, especially texting while driving, or even watching youtube while driving. Not to mention... gotta finish this comment now, green lgiht.
My dad taught me that whenever you approache an intersection, always look at the other vehicles approaching to see what they are doing. For example, you want to turn off at an intersection, and there are more than two vehicles that are turning in the opposite direction you intend to take, and look what the third vehicle wants to do, if it is a one lane road, you can turn, but if there is moer than one lane, be cautious, as the vehicles in ffont can cause a blind spot. And one thing I learnt was that when a bus stops at a stop and you can't see what is going on ahead of the bus, wait till the bus drives off. Believe me, people do take chances, especially in Cape Town.
Make sure you do all your racing in the game, in the streets: drive safely and responsibly. And wear your seat belt. -Nedd For Speed Most Wanted (2005)
1. Always check on your back seats if no intruder joined in your absent to drive away with you. 2. Always crose check the condition of your wheels before igniting
Great advice, but also, don’t neglect to do a shoulder check before pulling off. Your mirrors don’t cover the blind spots of your vehicle. Also, as another user pointed out, wear proper shoes when driving. Flip flops can easily make you loose control of the pedals.
As a person that has gone the knee pain I found that having the knee and foot lined up instead of at an angle gives better relief, less strain on the tendons, especially on long drives.
I had the best day ever. My family and I went to church and my lil' cousin (14) and I hung out after. I took her to the _Cow Palace_ and I taught her the basics. To my surprise, she was a natural.

#5 Always press clutch pedal fully down before braking. Atleast on slow speeds. This way if you by mistake press accelerator instead of brake, say on a bad day, it will save some life. From personal experience.
Completely wrong. Never press the clutch while braking unless the speed is dropping to the point that its not right for the gear. You are going to free your tyres from the engine by doing so which means u lose engine braking and your brakes have to do all the stopping.
@@sudmaticmotors4251 You are correct. Not only for the reasons you give, but disconectting the driveline before braking will ensure early lock up and loss of control.
REMEMBER!!!!! Shoulder checks Something I have to remember And check blind spots Head on a pivot always aware of surrounding watch for pedestrians and speeding traffic
Also a common mistake for those who live in hilly areas and are forced to park on an incline. San Francisco for example. Shifting into park. Apply the parking brake BEFORE lifting your foot from the brake pedal. It'll keep tremendous strain off the transmission.
If someone is driving extremely close behind you during the day. Turning your headlights on will Sometimes fool the person to believe you're braking and will also brake. But personally the closer they get behind me the slower I drive. Never let someone "push" you faster.
Yes and there's my car where i feel uncomfortable because my knees are bent too much and i still have to reach forward for the steering wheel. Safe driving.
My mom's boyfriend had to find out the hard way. Flip-flop slipped off, didn't catch the brakes early enough and hit a small pole afterwards. Now he essentially always wears shoes while driving.
I strongly recommend every driver to go and do some drifting and mc rae rally somewhere safe to improve their instincts before they go on the streets. So in a dangerous situation they will know the car’s limits, how to avoid the worst, and be confident and not panic at any time
Depending on the model vehicle equipped with ABS, it is normal for the brake pedal to pulse during ABS activation. Older models are usually more prone to this. Newer models are equipped with more equipment that prevents the ABS from affecting the pedal.
Some very good general input, which applies broadly. One thing that I wanted to note, is that for performance driving, many of us use one foot on the brake and one on the gas (as Sammy once said)- especially F-1 and related shifters, since it allows you to better and more fluidly place the car’s CG vis-a-vis the rear end. I have raced a wide range of cars, both amateur and semi-professionally, and can say that driving at the limits changes certain assumptions.
@@Elitefromthebar I don’t know what you mean. The test is a joke. What’s your name yes or no. Being able to drive a car comes from actual experience in driving it. You get a permit and drive the car for a bit then go take your test. Actually the test for my motorcycle license was more involved in the car.
One more thing in case you crash into water and car/truck starts to sink down and you can’t open the door due the water pressure you can remove the headrest of the seat 💺 and use the Metal sticks to brake the windows to make your Grand escape
I'm a driving instructor... most of these are covered literally in the very first driving lesson. #2, "Check your brake pipes" (?) is something that should be done regularly by a professional mechanic, which is covered in our classroom sessions. The fact you're suggesting a driver be replacing their brake lines and bleeding their brakes (something which should only EVER be done by a licensed mechanic) is HIGHLY irresponsible!
The "pedal," to the left of the clutch or brake pedal depending on your transmission, is dead pedal. Rest your foot on it while driving and use it to better understand where your rubber meets the road; because the dead pedal is situated directly behind the driver side tire
Yup. I have an automotive tech class also where i also learn stuff about driving tips that the teacher has. And probably stuff that I will review in drivers ed.
From my personal experience in the driving school I would suggest to familiarize with you gearbox, if you drive a manual. It should take you around 2-4 week, depend on how frequently you drive. That was the first thing I instinctly started doing. It later helped me quite a bit. Also, for some the smoothest gear ups I had were on 2.300 RPM, and gear downs were just bellow 2.000.
the smootheness on gear change, either up or down, isn't related with being on low rotations. Going up will be smooth most of the time because unlike shiftdown, the rotation always go down when gear go up. On gear down we should aim for the oposite. But thats for fast driving, on normal conditioning doesn't really matter how fast you change gears, or if you heel and toe or even if you use the clutch pedal at all.
@@Ajax6969 I am not thinking on how fast you can change gears. I was trying to say that if it's your first time driving there is going to mistakes in shifting. I, for and example, have only drove a tractor three years before my driving exam, obviously two different shifters, and when I wanted to change into 3rd I accidentally shifted into 5th. It took be about I week to memorize how gearbox worked on my driving school car.
@@chodiloo i haven't said anything about changing gears fast as well, i think this might be a misunderstand. Sadly i know nothing about cyrillic script, even though i have some russian contacts. And i agree when you say that helps to learn how your gearbox works. That's more important if you going to change gears without use clutch pedal since the RPM for the window to that works will always be the same, But when you are going to do it the normal way, the RPM should be matched on reductions for smoother, on gear up doesnt matter much. That's what i meant, i wasn't saying anything about fast gear change.
Now this is something for the manual never hold the clutch down unless shifting if you're shifting you have to hold the clutch down but when you shift done shifting you let go of the clutch pedal or you damage your transmission
All of these were taught to me, just in less detail. The one I find very important is to check the mirror positions before you drive, especially if you have more than one driver.
2:20 putting a cushion like that will raise the chances of you seriously hurting yourself in a car crash due to something called the submarine effect. That's the opposite of safe 😅😅
I knew all of that at the age of 14. The first time I got to drive a manual vehicle on a freeway but then I started to go top speed at the age of 16 on my mom's 750li and my dad's A8L.
I have a suggestion about using of view mirrors most of them don't know the use of mirrors.please add about the importance of rear view mirrors both outside the vehicle and inside thus we can make the idea about the width and length of the vehicle .mostly people don't adjust the mirrors according to our view
Correct driving in Albania/Balkan -Seat reclined +120degree -driving only one hand -seat belt behind your back -front door glasses 1/3 open -music volume 80
I no longer use 9 and 3 as my car has an airbag, I prefer 8to 4 so if the airbag deploys my hands go down. It makes little difference in controlling the car.
During winter and heavy rain the shield glass covered with fog so use hair moisturizer shampo mixing with water and wash the shield glass during trip..🇮🇳
This is not a good idea! Left foot braking you may not realize you're doing it but those who left foot brake subconsciously hold their foot on the brake as they are accelerating down the road. Those who do that in my area are a leading cause of many wrecks.
@@tiffanymonson9270 Its also a bad habit if you ever get a manual that has a clutch pedal (which obviously has to be operated with the left foot)......it will be a difficult habit to unlearn.
Also learned a word BLOWBAG. In sequence, you must remember to check these in a driving test to show the instructor and assessment checker, B for battery L for lights O for oil W for water B for brakes A for air G for gas
Always adjust your mirrors so that you can see the car behind you and next to you in both sides. Make sure to try your best to see your blind spot by having a blind spot checker on your car if it's new or blind spot mirrors on your car.
@@raphaelultimo1425 Apart from being standard in many countries, RHD actually favours right-handed people as most of us are right-eye dominant, and your right/dominant hand controls the steering when changing gears. I know you could ask "what about left-handers", but hey, facts don't care about minorities or political correctness.
theres a lot more than that that ppl didnt listen to like blinkers are for other ppl to know what your doing not for decorations or a joystick on side of steering wheel !!!!!!
One very important thing that every driver should do before driving, especially at night, is to do a complete walk around your car with the lights on to make sure everything is working, including turn signals. I've learned this the hard way and gotten pulled over twice as a result due to one or both of my taillights not working. All it takes is a minute to avoid a potential ticket.

Same with people who understand 2 feet in an automatic is safer.
Depending on the model vehicle equipped with ABS, it is normal for the brake pedal to pulse during ABS activation. Older models are usually more prone to this. Newer models are equipped with more equipment that prevents the ABS from affecting the pedal.
I ALWAYS ensure my seat is adjusted properly. My feet must be adjusted properly for driving, especially when I'm using the pedals.
Remember to always follow the rules of the road and be aware of other people who don't. You never know what they can do to you.
Some very good general input, which applies broadly. One thing that I wanted to note, is that for performance driving, many of us use one foot on the brake and one on the gas (as Sammy once said)- especially F-1 and related shifters, since it allows you to better and more fluidly place the car’s CG vis-a-vis the rear end. I have raced a wide range of cars, both amateur and semi-professionally, and can say that driving at the limits changes certain assumptions.
Great now that song is stuck in my head again.

They teach all of that in driving school, no. 1 being literally the first thing you learn. Bright side not being too bright...
Most people don’t go to driving school. They just get in a car and start driving.
@@SD-ir1vf Are you serious? That surely can't be legal even in third world countries...
@@Elitefromthebar I never went to a driving school and I don’t know anyone who has.
@@SD-ir1vf how do you get your license then?
@@Elitefromthebar I don’t know what you mean. The test is a joke. What’s your name yes or no. Being able to drive a car comes from actual experience in driving it. You get a permit and drive the car for a bit then go take your test. Actually the test for my motorcycle license was more involved in the car.
Nice info explained in brief👍👍
go to gta san driving school. they tell you every thing you need to destroy a car

One more thing in case you crash into water and car/truck starts to sink down and you can’t open the door due the water pressure you can remove the headrest of the seat 💺 and use the Metal sticks to brake the windows to make your Grand escape
I'm a driving instructor... most of these are covered literally in the very first driving lesson. #2, "Check your brake pipes" (?) is something that should be done regularly by a professional mechanic, which is covered in our classroom sessions. The fact you're suggesting a driver be replacing their brake lines and bleeding their brakes (something which should only EVER be done by a licensed mechanic) is HIGHLY irresponsible!
Where's your school ?
The "pedal," to the left of the clutch or brake pedal depending on your transmission, is dead pedal. Rest your foot on it while driving and use it to better understand where your rubber meets the road; because the dead pedal is situated directly behind the driver side tire
Not if your country drives on the left side of the road
I’m starting my driving lessons next Friday & i’m so excited! 😆😆😆
Did u got it?
The pedal trick is exactly what I needed !!
#5 Always Press The Hand Brake Button Before Pulling It Up Or Else The Hand Brake Lock Wont Work And You Successfully Have A Hydro E-Brake
#1 is called the cockpit drill. DSSSM ( doors, seat, steering wheel, seatbelt, mirrors ) they definitely “didn’t forget to teach you “
Car Enthusiasts: We learnt that ourselves...
Yup. I have an automotive tech class also where i also learn stuff about driving tips that the teacher has. And probably stuff that I will review in drivers ed.
Anyone that drives a car: we also learnt that ourselves ...
thou hast learnt that.
The driving school from which I learned taught me each an every point telling in this video ✌️☺️
From my personal experience in the driving school I would suggest to familiarize with you gearbox, if you drive a manual. It should take you around 2-4 week, depend on how frequently you drive. That was the first thing I instinctly started doing. It later helped me quite a bit.
Also, for some the smoothest gear ups I had were on 2.300 RPM, and gear downs were just bellow 2.000.
the smootheness on gear change, either up or down, isn't related with being on low rotations. Going up will be smooth most of the time because unlike shiftdown, the rotation always go down when gear go up. On gear down we should aim for the oposite. But thats for fast driving, on normal conditioning doesn't really matter how fast you change gears, or if you heel and toe or even if you use the clutch pedal at all.
@@Ajax6969 I am not thinking on how fast you can change gears. I was trying to say that if it's your first time driving there is going to mistakes in shifting. I, for and example, have only drove a tractor three years before my driving exam, obviously two different shifters, and when I wanted to change into 3rd I accidentally shifted into 5th. It took be about I week to memorize how gearbox worked on my driving school car.
@@chodiloo i haven't said anything about changing gears fast as well, i think this might be a misunderstand. Sadly i know nothing about cyrillic script, even though i have some russian contacts. And i agree when you say that helps to learn how your gearbox works. That's more important if you going to change gears without use clutch pedal since the RPM for the window to that works will always be the same, But when you are going to do it the normal way, the RPM should be matched on reductions for smoother, on gear up doesnt matter much. That's what i meant, i wasn't saying anything about fast gear change.
Try driving an 18 speed Allison transmission. You'll learn quick enough how to rev match the road speed
@@seansecker9398 sounds fun.
Now this is something for the manual never hold the clutch down unless shifting if you're shifting you have to hold the clutch down but when you shift done shifting you let go of the clutch pedal or you damage your transmission
only the clutch is damged
All of these were taught to me, just in less detail. The one I find very important is to check the mirror positions before you drive, especially if you have more than one driver.
2:20 putting a cushion like that will raise the chances of you seriously hurting yourself in a car crash due to something called the submarine effect. That's the opposite of safe 😅😅
These are mostly for short trip city drivers. Everyone that drives long distances do this out of comfort and convenience
AM_KEN from Ghana(TAKORADI)🇬🇭 thanks so much for this lesson ❤
I knew all of that at the age of 14. The first time I got to drive a manual vehicle on a freeway but then I started to go top speed at the age of 16 on my mom's 750li and my dad's A8L.
I'm a driving instructor and i watched your video now i will never forget
I have a suggestion about using of view mirrors most of them don't know the use of mirrors.please add about the importance of rear view mirrors both outside the vehicle and inside thus we can make the idea about the width and length of the vehicle .mostly people don't adjust the mirrors according to our view
Now I am learning..... beginners..... greetings from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳👍👍👍
Ah yes. The magical rule that no driving school will teach you. “Wear your seatbelt properly”
Correct driving in Albania/Balkan
-Seat reclined +120degree
-driving only one hand
-seat belt behind your back
-front door glasses 1/3 open
-music volume 80
Don’t assume people know the rules of the road or for that matter follow the rules - Defensive Driving is always needed.
I no longer use 9 and 3 as my car has an airbag, I prefer 8to 4 so if the airbag deploys my hands go down. It makes little difference in controlling the car.
"Before you..... " NO, I'm not going to subscribe to a channel before I watch their content.
Don't have your thumbs on the inside of the steering wheel, if you crash you'll break your thumbs when the air bag is deployed
My driving school explained all that. What they didn't tell me is how to park properly...
Can't you learn it yourself what is there to teach
@PolishWolf that's what UA-cam is for lol
Amazing video 👏
Thanks for the set adjustment information. I've been get leg pain when driving 375km to visit family.
During winter and heavy rain the shield glass covered with fog so use hair moisturizer shampo mixing with water and wash the shield glass during trip..🇮🇳
good tips on the pedals.... seems intuitive for me. didn't need an instructor to teach that
#5 Learn to drive for other people. ALWAYS watch what other people do while on the road.
Very informative...👍👍
Regular check up on vehicle is important
Especially engine oil,coolent etc
Thank you so much for this. It really helped 💯💯💯💯💯💯😉👍
I always brake with my left foot. It's recommended when you're racing on the arcade version of Need For Speed Underground.
Ryū The Volcano Dragon 🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤦🏽♀️
But in reality, you won't get another life 😂🤣
This is not a good idea! Left foot braking you may not realize you're doing it but those who left foot brake subconsciously hold their foot on the brake as they are accelerating down the road. Those who do that in my area are a leading cause of many wrecks.
@@tiffanymonson9270 Its also a bad habit if you ever get a manual that has a clutch pedal (which obviously has to be operated with the left foot)......it will be a difficult habit to unlearn.
Are you tryna get us K-i-l-l-e-d?! Lol
Always fix your mirrors to have clear view. Inside mirror: Clear view from your back. Left and Right: Clear optical to your car and the other drivers
I didn’t go to drivers Ed but this will come in much handy
I like this... Thanks for information
Also learned a word BLOWBAG. In sequence, you must remember to check these in a driving test to show the instructor and assessment checker,
B for battery
L for lights
O for oil
W for water
B for brakes
A for air
G for gas
One minute into the video, they finally start the countdown!
Don't shift into neutral in a manual to coast prolonged distances.
You'll waste fuel and have less control over the vehicle.
You will also slow down very quickly.
Nice driving skills wating for more details thankyou sir
7:05 Don't drive with flip-flops should be on the list!
Nice information..👏
Always adjust your mirrors so that you can see the car behind you and next to you in both sides. Make sure to try your best to see your blind spot by having a blind spot checker on your car if it's new or blind spot mirrors on your car.
monchis diaz true
monchis diaz and put on seatbelt as always
7:40 I was about to say that when you move your foot to the brake, it’s harder since it is elevated more than the gas pedal
make sure your steering wheel is on the right side of the car.
Why? Enlighten me.
@@raphaelultimo1425 Apart from being standard in many countries, RHD actually favours right-handed people as most of us are right-eye dominant, and your right/dominant hand controls the steering when changing gears. I know you could ask "what about left-handers", but hey, facts don't care about minorities or political correctness.
theres a lot more than that that ppl didnt listen to like blinkers are for other ppl to know what your doing not for decorations or a joystick on side of steering wheel !!!!!!

Thank me later;) Have a wonderful day!
I see you everywhere lol..thank you 😉
Thx m8

One very important thing that every driver should do before driving, especially at night, is to do a complete walk around your car with the lights on to make sure everything is working, including turn signals. I've learned this the hard way and gotten pulled over twice as a result due to one or both of my taillights not working. All it takes is a minute to avoid a potential ticket. Drive safe out there, folks.
Great video thanks for sharing it with us
