Anticipation when Driving
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 чер 2024
- Anticipating what's about to happen before it happens is an important part of being a safe driver. Many people have good anticipation skills before they start driving but can be held back by other worries. In this video I cover what may be holding you back and give examples of what I anticipate when driving.

This whole channel really is first class - you're creating a network of sensible, thoughtful and responsible motorists, which means that you've probably already saved lives. Massive respect and keep up the great work.
I agree! It's fantastic the way he anticipates situations sensibly. So many dangerous sitatutions avoided by sensible anticipation.
Literally learning more from this guy than my driving instructor.
My instructions are more to me more to you
The thing i struggle with is anticipation on busy roundabouts, some people leave indicators on and go all the way around, or dont indicate and come all the way around.
I have a video on that coming soon.
Kyxul.
Don't just go by someone’s indicators, it does not always tell you what the other driver is going to do, but rather also look at the position of their car and front wheels...
I have the same issue, will the video be before Friday? 🤣
Same here in Yakutsk, Russia. Sometimes I just drive through the first lane until my exit wherever it is, and hope that someone smashes into me so I would get them rubles.
@@ConquerDriving Thank you. Busy roubeabouts placemwnt and indicators is really something I look forward to learnabout
19:30 "What are you staring at, young man?"
"I'm anticipating you'll fall over" 😂
I think once I kept thinking to myself to stop being pressured by the people behind and keep good speed my mind felt a lot more at ease driving past narrow roads and upcoming hazards. Still learning but your channel truly is a gem.
Loving the narration of what you're thinking and doing as you drive. I hated driving lessons for the lack of this internal narrative.
19:23 - That's a gator, they're used by farmers to run small errands, feeding sheep etc. I've driven one before on a dirt road, they're quite fun.
Excellent video created by the best instructor in the UK!
Passed my auto test first attempt last week with 3 minors, been watching a lot of your videos to keep me sane and clued up! Thank you for everything :)
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
How many lessons did you please?
Passed my manual test today, first attempt with 2 minors. Can’t believe it still! So glad it’s done but these videos helped so much, thank you!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
Mashallah Inshallah I'll pass my test
@@jakwanrahman1291 Inshallah, hope you did well if you’ve had it! If not, best of luck!
Fantastic, congratulations enjoy driving
@beardedsaint3250 yeah thanks I passed last month
Richard, you are a BRILLIANT driving instructor! 🥇
i passed my test on friday with 8 minors on my second attempt BUT a pass is a pass and your videos greatly helped me! thank you!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
I like that ‘a pass is a pass’ 💪🏾

Passing a driving test is just the next stage in your driving career, now you need to remember those skills and apply them every time you drive your vehicle. Don't flaunt what you were taught in the driving lessons and become a dangerous driver as so many do afterwards...
Thank you Richard. This video describes exactly what I have to face everyday. I have just moved to the UK from Hong Kong. And there are many challenges on the road in the UK compared with in HK. Many closed junctions, many mini roundabouts, many busy junctions without traffic lights so I have to make my decisions, many narrow two-way roads with parked cars on both sides. Everyday I drive like playing electronic video games. Thanks for your videos!
I passed my manual test on my first try on Thursday. I have gained so much knowledge from all of your videos, thanks so much Richard. I will continue to watch you to become a better driver, you’re a legend!
That's fantastic to hear, congratulations on passing!
Learning how to drive since about one month im Switzerland. You are making some really good educational Videos, thank you very much for taking the time creating these! Now i just need to watch out that i don't accidentially drive on the left side here 😅
Your videos are fantastic, been watching as an add on to my lessons with my instructor. Clears up so much that we just don’t have time to go through during our allotted time. Thank you!
Invaluable advice throughout .
Absolutely brilliant video.👍
Best driving channel on UA-cam! I have years of experience on the road with a motorcycle, but got my first car earlier this year. Richard's videos has made the transition so much easier.
I can't thank you enough, friend.
Really I appreciate your time for us.
I’ve been an ADI for 28 years. I’m very impressed with your teaching.
Thank you so much Richard, I'm a new driver and I got through the basics but your videos help me keep sharp and always improving/learning
Hi Richard, I’m from Singapore. I passed my driving test for manual car on my first attempt and your videos really helped a lot! I’m thankful I chanced upon your channel and am still watching your videos even though I passed.
How it works in Singapore is that different driving faults (e.g. fail to signal in good time would be 2 demerit points) have different demerit points and serious mistakes here are known as immediate failure mistakes. To pass the test, testee should not accumulate more than 20 points AND not have any serious fault.
Thank you for watching and thank you for the information. It's always intersting to find out how other countries do the test.
congrats!!
when i was in singapore last night i noticed that our taxi signalled way early (the turn wasn't even in sight yet) and the blinker was left on for maybe a minute and that people really weren't staying in the middle of their lane, is that the custom there or is that just around scotts rd?
I always like watching your videos, chances are that I'll look at things another way, if not learn something new. Thank you for thoroughly explaining things!
great video as always. the moment you said there is a bend but you can't yet tell which way it is going, I feel a heavy weight came off from my shoulder. I always thought i can't tell the direction of a bend because of my incompetence. now that i know it is normal to not be able to tell. so i can just slow down and take my time to read the road and no panic! Thanks again for making these videos. They have made a world of difference.
It can be hard to tell sometimes, here is another video where I couldn't tell which way to go: ua-cam.com/video/LGxilUUz2Fg/v-deo.html
@@ConquerDriving what that comment said , it has also taken a weight of my shoulders too , thank you for your videos
Very helpful video and also the way you are explaining makes everything so clear for us, who are following you. Great job!
In fact you are really a good teacher, I do love watching your videos and also make me a better learner 💯💯
Thank you for the help over the weeks with these uploads. I passed first time with 1 minor.
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing your driving test!
Very enjoyable video. I've been watching your videos for a year now and also been learning to drive in that time too which is how I came across this channel. Very useful and interesting. Keep it up.
17:32 "You should always give way to a committed car" sounded quite funny😂
I've really gained a lot from watching these videos as a learner driver in Kenya! My driving experiences have significantly improved💪🏽 Thank you, Richard.
passed first time today, cheers you absolute legend saved my life ❤️
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
I have really learnt a lot from your videos especially on making right and left turns and how much to turn the wheel. Am from Zambia and we drive on the left side of the road like u in the UK and so it's easy to learn from you. Keep up the good work
Thanks very much for share your drive experiences,it helps me a lot because drive right and left is quiet different for me
Hey Richard, a viewer from Australia here.
I just wanted to say thank you for all your videos on driving manual, from covering every possible topics and aspects of it. Not to mention also making it engaging as possible through a video, which is a bonus!
I have been driving automatic for over 5 years, and wanted to purchase my next car in manual as I turned full license. Your videos were such great help to me, especially not having access to a manual car and only having a couple of professional lessons to drive in a manual.
Eventually I was able to bring my new manual car home recently, there was some tough moments, but using what I learned from all your videos helped me with those all certain situations I can across, from hills to traffic.
Also I would always recite one of your sayings “focus on what you need to do, and don’t worry about others”, which really helped me throughout the drive.
Thank you again Richard! Keep up the great work, best of luck to you and your endeavours! 👏🏻🙌🏻
That's so great to hear, thank you for watching!
You are uncomparable. Hats off to you.
perfect video! I think this is the most important non-technical ascpect of driving anything! even a bicycle for that matter
I always drive my car with safety in mind, it's a shame that this safe way of driving is not innate in everyone, then it would not need to learned. All it takes is common sense and respect for all other road users and stay clear of the idiots that want to play dangerous games on the roads.
Thank you very much sir.
I’m very poor in this subject.
Anticipating and awareness I don’t know when should I reacted.
Thanks for your helpful videos.
02:50-03:04 - biggest piece of advice I can advocate! When I was a begginer I was so afraid of being a nancy-williy and a nuisance to others in traffic, that I would be continously stressed of being honked by cars behind me. Sage advice for beginners. Do your thing, trust your gut and be aware. Let others honk if they're too much "in a hurry" and ignore those honks. Remember, rule no.1 for driving, be it on a highway or city roads, is to get safely from point A to B.
Well said. Part of learning to drive is learning to be by your own boss when it comes to controlling the car. At the end of the day it's the driver's responsibility.
this is one of the videos everyone should watch a couple of times when learning to drive, years of driving experience are condensed into a 23 minute video :D
Thanks for this video Richard - I'm very close to doing my test (next month) and I feel a lot more confident with my driving due to your advice on scenarios like this. I've started adopting this thought process and I believe that it will help me make good decisions and make my driving much smoother and of course a more respectful driver. Appreciate it!
Good luck with your test!
Your videos are all I need right now😊
Yes! Another great topic I wanted to see!
Passed my test on Saturday albeit the inspector was bribed which has to be done 😭, learnt a lot from this channel. Thank you from South Africa
One of the best videos on your channel👍👍👍 thank you
Hi Richard just stopping by to let you know I passed my practical driving test first time today with 1 minor!! I am extatic. Thank you for all your videos. This inforrmation certainly helped me!!! you are fabulous! Your videos helped a lot x lotsa love ❤️
That's fantastic to hear, congratulations on passing!
I have passed my test last year. Still come to check your videos, they are very good 😊
I live in the USA, but some of these tips can still be taken. I got my Learners Permit. Thank you :)
This guy is a genius
Very helpful, could watch hours of these, third lesson tomorrow so this will be help a bit for that.
Just want to say thanks for all the videos!! I've been watching them not-stop last week as I had a test today. Passed 2nd time!!!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
Passed my test today with 5 minors and I don’t think I would have even passed without these videos!! Thank you!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
@@ConquerDriving thank you for the kind words really appreciate it
The road where I live is narrow with cars on both sides like in your example - it also has a couple of blind corners, ohh and it's also on a steep hill! I passed back in November but feel like I'm still learning how to anticipate other drivers and plan ahead for spaces to wait/pass safely. Watching your videos are definitely helping me to feel more confident!
You will be learning your whole driving life. The first two years is the most significant.
Just want to say I passed this morning and these videos have been unbelievably helpful. Thank you very much!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
hell yeah this is the kinda video i need right now
Hi, i’m from the Philippines. Your videos are really helpful. Thanks
I’m not from the UK but these videos are still very helpful and try to apply these where I live and feel more and more confident when I take my driving test soon
Good luck, I hope it goes well!
Really helpful video as usual, I can relate to what you said about not anticipating and planning because I'm worried about the drivers behind, this was me always rushing to get out of the way. I'm definitely working on this tho now my confidence is increasing 😊
I've also never heard of the term 'leaving the door open' makes sense tho and helpful, thanks for this 😊
i rarely drive a night only if a have too, can do it no issue but what bugs me bright lights behind so when safe i give signal to left they pass. normally early morning rush, 5am roads quite and fast locals caught up some blew past but few just followed closer than i like so next town signal left they went around, driving country lanes what driven before but rarely and never at night so i was slower than normal at times, when safe i allow them to pass they happy and im happy and few give thank you wave or flash hazards as they pass but if not safe for them to pass it tough luck they have to go at the speed i feel safe, even tho im no way a slow driver quick at times always catching up people but on roads you do not know or road with loads hazards i drive with extra caution even if it is slower than the driver behind likes and if they holding back i sure help to get them past when safe, reckless ones they pass first chance they get safe or not so just be ready to adjust speed
i passed my driving test today!! i’m american but your videos have helped tremendously thank you :)
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
Great content. Thanks Richard
I bro! I just passed my practical test 8.40am this morning in Wanstead, and allI your videos helped me through especially the driving test nerves..
Thank you bro!!!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
I passed today with 3 minors. Your videos and way of explaining things helped me so so much. Thank you Richard for being there from the start. You really are amazing ❤️
That's so great to hear, congratulations on passing!
It was a very topic and helped me a lot. Thank you.
I have same problem. Thank you for this video
omg thank you Richard I spoke about this topic about 4-5 weeks ago thank you so much for this video My awareness has improved ! this video is great thank you🙃🙃🙃
You're welcome, if I remember correctly it was a comment that spurred me to do this one.
Yes it was me actually😀 & Im very grateful for this :) so thank you again and stay safe with your family
anticipation and planning ahead was my biggest struggle when learning how to drive but thanks to this video, i passed my test yesterday!!!
That's great to hear, congratulations on passing!
Your videos are absolutely amazing. I've been watching your videos since last 6 months and they have helped me big time. I passed my driving test here in Victoria, Australia a week back. Thank you so much for your informative videos which are extremely helpful for new driver or learner driver like me. Cheers!
That's fantastic to hear, congratulations on passing!
@@ConquerDriving thanks 😊
I like your videos, they're very clear
I have my test in 2 days, feel ready but I wish I found your channel earlier and watched for the past 4 months 😭 would have helped so much!
Good luck with your test!
Thank you so much for the help
I passed my test today with 7 minors. Your videos have really helped me so I just wanted to say thanks.
I will still be watching your videos though as I would like to keep improving my driving.
Thank you :)
That's fantastic to hear, congratulations on passing!
Looks like you were on an Up country road trip. Love your videos ❤️
You helped me pass the test in the morning yesterday! Thank you ❤
That's fantastic news! Thank you for watching and congratulations on passing!
@@ConquerDriving thank you :)
Another great video with a ton of practical information, thank you for that one video! You need a membership button my friend, a lot of support will come I'm sure.
Just find this video after I failed my driving test because of bad anticipation/planning🥲The first minute is exactly talking about my problem! Thank you for this video helping me spot my problem and finger crossed for my next driving test.
US future driver here. Despite being UK centric, I appreciate your videos greatly.
I’ve got my driving test on Wednesday a day before my birthday and I’m extremely nervous but your videos are calming my nerves! 😬
I wish you the best of luck with your driving test!
Great informative video! Thanks
having almost 8 years experience of driving, and I can predict the car in front of me going into my lane without turning on their signal light.
Watching from 🇰🇪.
Very helpful video
Thanks
I’ve watched countless videos of yours and I’m finding them so helpful! Thank you for doing these videos , I have my test on June 6th so fingers crossed I pass!
Good luck!
I passed!!! 6 minors I’ll take it 🔥
Quality video, very good, thanks for sharing
You are great brother 💕
We should all anticipate to give way even when it's our right of way. You do see people barrelling down narrow roads with cars parked on your side and don't stop because it's "ThEiR rIgHt Of WaY" even though you already committed long before them.
Smooth driving I like it 🙌
Thanks for this helpful video.
Another great video. I'll be starting my lessons in September and your videos have really helped me when it comes to nerves and anxiety. I've always thought that I wouldn't be able to do it, and your videos have helped me get over that mental barrier. I can see this video helping with the hazard perception portion of the theory test. Thank you!
Thank you for your video ❤
Passed my test 3 minors today in an area I'd only previously driven for around 15 minutes. Could not have done it without watching your videos mate thank you a lot a lot a lot!
That's great news, congratulations on passing!
It’s very helpful. Would you please make more video similar to this? Analysing every move is really a treasure for us learner.
Thank you very much!
Thank you, I will try my best.
Great video 👍
Amazing video
Very helpful thank you 😊 🙏
Anticipation is everything.
You are so right about stressing out about the people behind so much that I am less prepared for hazards in front - my first driving instructor always got me to check my mirrors even before ever slowing down and in general always be checking/aware if there is someone behind you but I find that needlessly pulls my attention away and unless I'm pulling out or in slightly around parked cars I can't see why that's necessary - if I need to stop abruptly then it's an emergency, I'm not going to hit a person just because someone's riding my tail way too close.
You have to check your mirrors before changing anything and it's a necessity to know what is going on around you (situational awareness). It's part of the test and missing a mirror check could get you a minor fault or worse. It should become second nature once you get used to it and it's an essential part of driving. A quick glance is all that is needed and it shouldn't distract you from what is going on ahead of you.
Em, I totally agree with you, checking your mirrors before braking can only delay braking meaning you will have to brake harder. On test I've only had pupils get marked down for not checking their mirrors before slowing down if they have had to brake harshly, which I've always found to be strange as if they checked their mirrors first, they would have to brake even harder.
If you have to stop, you have to, it's not often optional.
Respect.......Good job....
Thanks Richard
thank you
I live in Devon and I frequently enjoy road trips in both Devon and Cornwall. One technique I find very helpful with blind bends is having the lights on (dipped), even in daytime. Judging by the oncoming vehicle's sudden maneuver in response to the light, I can't tell you how many times I've avoided accidents thanks to that (in combination with slowing down, too).
Good advice!
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
