Thank you, it was nice to see an automatic mock test because there aren’t that many out there, and it was great to see the emergency stop because I haven’t found an auto mock with one in.

Do you have a place in London
I felt bad with four minor faults :)
@@yaoakimtantiquyloukou9674 Sorry, we don't cover your area.
David k I got four faults on my test, the examiner says how do you think you've done? I replied knowing me i flunked it. Lol
I'm watching this after passing my test today with 2 minors. Good luck to everyone who has a test booked 🤞🏻.
Awesome - well done!!! 🎉
Do u have any tips for studying the highway code?
Taylor Couper keep reading! I also downloaded the audiobook from audible and listened whilst reading at the same time. And test yourself- you can download the theory driving test revision app from App Store.
Same here...
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool hi
UK driving is not as straight forward as in the U.S., there are more hazards, roads are much more narrow and everything is closer, also there are more signs and rules to follow. However driving in the UK will make you a more Disciplined and safer driver
Agree! I've driven in the US and it is cake walk compared to the UK.
Agree
Totally agree👍
Lol don’t know which part of uk you at but that discipline talk is reaching
Driving in the UK can be a shock for foreign licence holders. I would suggest they start preparing for the UK test as soon as they arrive in the UK. Many leave it until the last minute, thinking it will be a mere formality.
I passed my test first time yesterday. I learned in an automatic and your videos really helped. This one especially as it was an automatic one. Thank you
Well done! 🚙👍🏼
Great video! Really insightful, interesting to see from this perspective, also it’s good to see the speed and foot pedals. I think she did really well 😊
Just want to say thank you so much for these videos! I passed first time today with 5 minors thanks to your videos, they’re so clear and easy to understand and made me feel much more confident :) x
Well done!!! 🚙😃👍🏼
Well done Amelia! Thanks for sharing this nice mock test, helping us improve our skills.
Hi...I passed my driving test today from the first time., these videos really helped me.
Thank you very much for posting these videos. Your are the best.
Well done!!!
Great video guys. I have my test on 5th October so hopefully all goes well👍 thanks as always for your great videos, Oliver.
Just passed this morning. Thank you for all your tutorials! Helped me out massively
Excellent - well done! 🚗😃👌🏼
She looks to be a good driver, slow and steady , just iron out those little faults and she will fly through. Good luck.
Since I’m taking my first test next week and it’s in Bury, these videos give me that ‘Test experience’ before I have even taken it. Cheers guys!
Thanks for showing this. I am pleased Emilia has passed her driving test. I passed my actual theory test on the first try two weeks ago. My car is Automatic so this is good for me to see as well and learn from it. I find these videos very study worthy and I enjoy them.
Bravo Emilia! Great video.
i passed my test first time today 😁😁 this channel helped me so much and i can’t believe it’s all free thank you guys!!!!!!!!
Excellent - well done! 🚙😃👍🏼
Thank you so much, finally someone shows mock test using automatic car.
Have you seen this one? New Driver full mock test: ua-cam.com/video/fscmY33MIBo/v-deo.html
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool No I haven't seen this before, will check it out thank you. It's nice to see more driving lessons' videos especially drivers with automatic cars keep increasing these days. Thank you very much.
SOOOO very helpful! As an American expat, this process has felt more than a bit daunting! Loving your videos and feeling more confident with every one I watch! Thank you!!
Great video! Thank you for telling us about the cameras and the software.
These videos helped me so much! I passed my test today! Thank you!!!
Woooo! Well done 👍🏼 🎉
I passed 1st time on thursday. Still find myself watching these videos 😂. Thanks for all the help though!
Great job!
Thank Emilia, just got to the UK ..This video helped alot
I've learned a loooooot. Thank you so much
I have my test on the 7th of October. These videos are helping me a lot. Just pray i pass!! 💪🏻
Good luck! 🤞🏼
goodluck darling, i booked mine on Oct. 22 fingers crossed
Mine is on the 9th 🤞🏽
Hope you all did well, did anyone pass?
did you past? i was fail with 6 minors and Serious at traffic lights goes amber and and i passed already at stopping lane i decided to go through
Helpful video 👍🏻
Great to see you employ the new rear camera/mirror footage, I am a strong believer these should come as standard in future cars and I expect they will.
The genius of them even if they fail electronically they are still mirrors.
We love using the new ‘electric mirror’ on lessons, and whilst the recorded footage is decent (its 1080P resolution), it can’t compete with the 4K footage that our GoPro cameras output - so that’s what we use for these videos.
is the rear mirror still visible through this? I personally don't think a camera is suitable as a rear view mirror.
@@jakec6282 The rear-view monitor sits in front of the car's original mirror, so we can only see the view on the screen. Many new cars have these fitted as standard now, as they give a clearer view than a mirror can - for example, the new Honda E has monitors instead of all 3 mirrors!
Highly appreciated...
Thanks was very helpful
I like the whining of the electric motor
I hope I will pass the driving test 🤞👍
I've got a test next week you've posted this at the right time thank you :)
Good luck, hope you pass
Omg samee, good luckk
Good luck!!☺️
Goodluck, tryina book today but oh my its a long queu 150k
thank you all so much! wish you guys all the best too xx
I have my test on Tuesday I’m so nervous but these videos help so much. Thank you 😊
You got this!
I’m taking my test in Bury so this is really useful
Right enjoyed it that was very well filmed first mock I've watched you've done , enjoyed watching I knew you taught her well 9 minors isn't that bad so I'll watch again to get me ready I'll remember sometimes ahead is a first exit and make sure to be in correct lane and keep an eye on speed when teacher doesn't say anything at end he says cause I've done good sometimes it's just , little thing's .
a brilliant drive very well done
Pin Binning is also happy for this..😂
Thank you
Good drive and congratulations also her Instructor is good observation.
Super training 👌
I'm scared of test😱 I wish my future test will be as easy as in this video. Obviously first time watched mock test😊
Same
Good video, as an ADI for over 7 years I agree with the "examiner" but a real examiner would use different wording, which I try to match in my mock test.
8th October Automatic test, I've got the earliest one of the day so I don't miss too much work.
Good luck!
Im American too i live in Switzerland.
I Performed my Driving Test with a Manual Transmission.
I have a Nissan petrol automatic, I found being driven virtually inside this full electric Nissan interesting , very smooth and when accelerating the motor sound reminds me of the modern S stock trains on the underground District/Circle Line, Didnt know about the rear view mirror camera seems an obvious idea to use now, but I can’t believe how loud the indicators are.
If you are interested we have made a separate video showing more detail about driving an electric car here: ua-cam.com/video/onFvh8MiupI/v-deo.html The indicator does sound loud when recorded on video, but in person we don't really notice it as much!
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Thank you i will look at the link, the EV charging infrastructure and mileage range is still something that needs to expand.
Video quality and everything too good 👍🏾
As an existing U.K. driver, she done very well...very similar style of driving to me. Was a bit close to a few parked cars.
Nice car too. I’m driving a Honda jazz (or Fit as it’s also known) automatic. Quite similar.
i drive only automatic since that is my family first car... soon i want to learn manual
@advanced driving school. What's the mk2 leaf like? Mines nine years old this month and a cracking motor. My mates call it a milk float lol.
The new Leaf is great. We had a mk1 30kWh for 3 years (the red one in older videos) and the new ones are slightly more dynamic to drive (but still a good riding and quiet car) and it has a lot more tech inside. It’s a heavy facelift rather than a complete new car, but still a nice place to be for a days work 🚙👍🏼
Can I ask why we do the parking on the right when highway code says not to park facing oncoming traffic???? This is quite a dangerous manouvers to teach I've past my test and never parked on the right since passing.
We weren’t too impressed when the DVSA announced this manoeuvre for the test back in 2017 as we would always prefer to park with the flow of traffic. Apparently it’s a ‘real life’ skill 🙄
Great video. What mirror is that centre one? Looks like a live video of the back.
Thanks! This is a review of the mirror: Auto-Vox V5 mirror dash cam ua-cam.com/video/og-cn8sVl7o/v-deo.html 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool fab. Thanks. Are these allowed to be used in driving tests? I want to buy one for my car but im not sure if I can do my test with it !
Yes - this car has been used for driving tests many times without any problem. In fact several new cars (eg the Honda E and Audi E-tron) have this type of rear-view monitor as standard.
I would like to have mock driving test with you. I’ve watched every single video from your channel. I’ve done 10 lessons of 2hrs
Thanks for the offer, but we only do mock tests with our friends or current pupils. Sorry!
I hope this video help me with automatic car test my test is on Tuesday 1st September at 1.17 Pm. I pass my test watching this video.
Good luck 🤞🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Thank you !!
I'm watching this with literally 2 weeks to go till my test day. I switched to an automatic car after failing my test 3 times in a manual car so finger crossed I pass this time I can't be doing it all again. I feel pretty confident but who knows till lthe day comes
Good luck! 🤞🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool thank you 😊
It will be helpful if you guys can upload learners doing their mock exam more often
Have you seen this one? Learner Driver Mock Test: ua-cam.com/video/6ArWQR0rctY/v-deo.html
Advance Driving School- yes I have watched that one it really helped me thanks for that and I watching the new mock exam video
I've noticed that she didn't put it the car in park after the emergency stop isn't that a serious fault? and she also didn't do a 6 point mirror check? just want to clarify for my test next week thanks in advance x
Using park doesn’t matter as long as the car is held stationary with the brakes. Her blind spot check was poor though, which could be a problem. A proper 6-point check would be better!
From Kenya i am a member
Do you think its okay for a learner driver to take lessons far away from their official test area? I am going university and I'm not sure if I should take lessons there or if I should come back home frequently to learn with my regular instructor. I'll also be using my home instructors car for the official test so is it best to stick with him so I can get used to the car so therefore come home frequently...or should I save the hassle and take lessons near uni. My main concern is getting used to the car and the controls for my official test which I may not be able to do as much if I took lessons near my uni. My uni is in London so will take me an hour and a half to get home. Sorry for the long message any help will be grateful. Thankss🙂
We would keep taking regular lessons wherever you are - as any gaps will allow your driving skills to ‘get rusty’. Once you are up to test standard it doesn’t matter where you take your test. Good luck!
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Thank you so much. This was helpful
On an actual practical test, do we use our ADIs car, or one from the test centre?
Test centres don’t provide a car - we must take our own to be tested in 👍🏼
I don't know what would be happening in the US if they had these such narrow roads as in the UK. Just thinking about those fat trucks such as Ford F-250, Chevy Silverado or Toyota Tundra passing by at the same time or parked in both sides. 😳😁
I've just watched this after viewing a similar video about an American doing a mock test in London.
To me he looked far more competent and had many more hazards to deal with. His instructor was much harsher and gave him many more minors which seemed to be glossed over in this video.
Makes me ask the question that is it easier to pass the test outside of major cities?
The average pass rates are lower in busy cities - so it might be easier to pass in quieter or smaller towns.
So you can slide wheel through hands and cross them over when turning?
It's not our preferred method of steering - but as long as your car is in full control then the test examiner can't give you a fault.
What was that van doing at 7:38 Lol
Giving way to his right? 😂
Does decision making skills improve with experience
Yes, as you have seen similar things before it's easier to predict what is likely to happen.
@Advance Driving School At 18:04 Emilia changes gear? Did she put it to Park after the emergency stop and then Drive
We’re not sure - but it looks like she kept it in Drive after the emergency stop, and then selected Drive a second time before moving off!
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool please can you let me know what the procedure would be in an Automatic after an emergency stop. Do you just put handbrake to secure car?
Ideally we would select Park, but as long as the car is held stationary there shouldn’t be a problem. We only use the handbrake when actually parking the car, so don’t consider it necessary in this situation - however you can use it if you like. 👍🏼
Back in my day we dident have satnavs or 360 reversing cameras XD
I passed my test in ‘89 - and it was so much simpler back then. No theory test, and no parking manoeuvres! However the roads are much busier now so it’s correct that the test is much harder now. Learning how to use a sat-nav or reversing camera is not as easy as you might think for a new driver, as they can be a huge distraction if misused.
that rear view mirror is a camera? nice
That’s right - we reviewed it here: Auto-Vox V5 mirror dash cam ua-cam.com/video/og-cn8sVl7o/v-deo.html 👍🏼
its bad in UK examiners are aloud to pass so many and fail so many and its usually morning tests instead of afternoon test that you pass, ive failed twice doing the test in afternoon and what should have been minor faults I've been given serious ones
Really? Why is that?
It's hard to know
were any of the faults only picked up only when the footage was reviewed?
No, but it is nice to be able to review our marking in case we had made a mistake.
did she need to signal right every time she moved away from pulling in on the left ?
There is no requirement to indicate every time we move off, only when someone else would benefit - although we can still do so if we prefer.
I tried to book my driving test today, I logged on at 8am and two hours later I got through , but they didn't have any date available from now until six weeks later , at Hendon, mill hill, greenford and South hall .
Even tho when i check availability they say the tests centres has low availability at Hendon, mill hill, Greenfield, South hall. This is very upsetting . They need to sort it out. They will reopen again on Monday the 7th of September at 8am and I can bet it's going to happen again, no spaces at any of the test centres I want. What to do as I don't want to wait until 2021 to get a driving test.
It is a problem for everyone. We have seen though that the DVSA will release a further 12 weeks of tests later this month, so that should be up to 18 weeks of tests - enough for everyone!
It’s still a problem now, I tried to book my test here in Scotland and unless you get a last minute cancellation (which luckily I have for a few days time) it’s a 6 month wait! Just the reality of the back log with covid but hopefully it be as substantial soon
Never saw the handbrake used once and she crossed her hands
She's driving an automatic. That's so easy.
Also, when you are a learner driver, you're not allowed to crossed your hands when staring. It should be the pull and push. Unless they changed the rule on this since its been a while since I passed my driving test.
It’s easier to control an automatic car - but the driver still needs to use the same judgement when driving. For this reason the driving test pass rate is no higher for automatic tests than manual. On a test the examiner doesn’t mind what steering technique is used, so long as the car is in the correct road position at all times.
So can you cross your hands on the steering wheel and allow the wheel to slide through your hands when straightening up as this woman did at 11:45
Yes - so long as you keep control over the car the examiner won’t give you a fault.
I would like to let you know something another online instructor told me who had a mock test with American driver. The US driving test rules are different in funny way. You don't have to continuing observing when reversing, only do mirrors or what and your aloud to hit the kerb no more than 3 times. Hmmmm. Also it's not like UK MSM mirror signal manoeuvre, but rather in US signal mirror manoeuvre. Is that so interesting, I and the instructor who learned this ( DGN driving school UA-cam channel ) from the American driver. Why not watch his video last year it's so funny, and mostly people love his channel
Yes, we have heard all of those differences from other people we have taught from the United States. Their roads are far wider and quieter than ours, so their level of driver tuition and difficulty of driving test don't need to be as challenging as ours in the UK. Don't worry, we have seen Pin's channel 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool so have you heard of his ultimate driving course?
He may have mentioned it once or twice....
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool so many people find it useful even I almost thought of getting it but I just had a weeks before driving test last year and found I was ready
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool lmao
If you pull over to see the button would that be a serious fault or a minor fault
No, as long as you stopped and moved away again safely.

Have you seen the other 8 mock tests in our Mock Test playlist?
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Ok thanks ♥️
Was the test in an electric car? It looks like the car from the video you made about the differences between internal combustion cars and electric cars, but I'm not sure.
Yes, that car is one of our Nissan Leafs 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Thank you!
♠️ 1mile is 1.6km
On the dash board
Hello I was hoping someone could help. There is a traffic light box junction where I live but on only one side it is a filtered light (one arrow to turn right just underneath the normal red amber green) how ever on this side it is a single lane so me waiting for the green arrow would prevent others moving behind me, what should I do, my driving instructor seems to think this is about priority, so if the green light shows I should proceed to turn right however watch out for other cars and if the arrow is on I shouldn’t have to worry but I don’t believe this correct could anyone clarify for me please ?
A normal green light means everyone can enter the junction - although you might need to give way to oncoming traffic when turning right. A green arrow means only traffic going in that direction can cross the stop line. So in practice you don't need to wait until the right arrow lights up, you can ener the junction on either green light when turning right. In our experience the right green light arrow generally indicates that oncoming traffic has a red light so will be stopping soon, letting you continue your right turn - although any oncoming traffic that has crossed their stop line will still have priority over you!
Advance Driving School thank you very much for your reply, I can’t seem to find any information anywhere related to this, so just to clarify. If the green light appears but not the green arrow I can turn right (as long as oncoming traffic doesn’t prevent it) and if the light is red but arrow if green I can just turn right (following all other box junction rules)
That's right 👍🏼
Should you signal to come out of an emergency stop??
We should if someone else would benefit. 👍🏼
@@AdvanceDrivingSchool Thankyou! Doesn’t make sense to me if you’re in the middle of the road to signal as you’re not going right or
Left you’re just moving! Anyway… being picky
Is it not a fault to let the steering wheel correct itself after turning? As technically youre not in control of it?
As long as the car is always in the correct road position, there should be no fault given. The examiner is marking where you steer, not how you steer. 👍🏼
Wait is Matt left-handed?
No - why do you ask?
22.05 "Since we have a cycle lane to our left it's extra important to check our left mirror for CARELESS cyclists before turning."
1. That is not a cycle lane but a feeder lane to the advanced stop. Incidentally the car is obstructing the feeder lane.
2. Why have you used the word "careless" to describe cyclists who may be present and correctly using the feeder to access the advanced stop?
30:43 pedestrian was crossing, should it be a dangerous fault?
We don’t think so - the pedestrian walked out at the last second, and wasn’t actually on the crossing. Stopping suddenly like that with the traffic lights on green would probably cause more danger, so we would have continued as well.
Thanks!
OMG, its Ridiculous to drive, or driving for that matter here in the UK.
The USA, & CA, is far more easier.
In Lauder Hill Florida in 1990 my driving instructor said, "You don't need a driving test, you need a driver's license"
(1). We went up 1 block.
(2). I Turn. Left, Right.
(3). I did a Parallel park on both sides.
(4). We went to get Gas.
From greeting the driving instructor, have a new driving license in my wallet, to make it on time to work, & clock in, & start working,
Everything took 19 minutes. i was 16.
Our country is smaller and has busy, narrow roads - so our driving test is much harder to ensure drivers have enough skill and judgement to stay safe.
Surprised to see her being asked to park on the opposite side of the road facing oncoming traffic. Once got a fine in Germany for doing that. Okay in UK so it seems.
There are rules to prevent that happening on an unlit road at night - but in the daytime it is legal to do. Of course, we prefer to park on the left whenever possible though!
Hi
Not many manoeuvres anymore. No hill start, no reverse parking and no reverse around a corner.
No, the format of the test has changed a lot over the years.
The law must changed because I've heard of drivers who drive in different countries and move to UK without even needed passing UK driving test
Anyone can come here as a tourist and drive on their foreign license for one year - but after that you must pass our test to continue driving. We do have an agreement with a few countries to do a 'license exchange', so check Gov.uk for full details if needed.
I agree they are huge liability and countries like America where the test doesn't test for competency , more like if you don't crash for 10 mins you pass , they haven't got skills , awareness , planning yet we let them hire a rental and put local people lived at risk , whoever thought that Is a good idea needs a good boot to the face
I'm failed with 2 driving faults 1 serious😔
Sorry to hear that - keep practicing and good luck next time :-)
so sad...
She took her hands off the steering wheel which not good
Blows my mind how in the american test you can pass in an automatic (basically everyone!) and still be allowed to drive a manual car 🤯
I was watching an American on another mock driving test site. He had passed his test in America and said it's only a two and a half minute driving test on an private site.
He failed his mock with 23 serious faults.
Its the opposite over here. Automatic is standard in each car and manuals are rare.
Automatic transmission are great for the constant stopping/accelerating. For my commute to university, (14 miles) i can potentially come to 23 traffic lights/stop signs (34 if i avoid the interstate highway). Those are bringing my car to complete stop and waiting 2-5 minutes for other traffic to cross.
I Don’t know about you but accelerating and downshifting every 1/2 mile in the city is annoying.
@@bobp6742 the traffic laws revolve around obeying the system. If you can drive the car according to the rules, you pass. Versus the UK demanding personal judgements and adjusting of traffic conditions.
The light tells you when to proceed, and the traffic sign tell you when to give way, and the rules of the road are chief.
Its illegal for pedestrians to cross the street whenever and wherever they want. Theres a designated place to cross. For myself, i dont have to slow down because i know people arent allowed to jump out of the middle of the road. If everyone follows the system, no one gets hurt.
How many driving faults did she get for not checking mirrors? I know that 3 similar driving faults = 1 serious.
We can’t remember without watching it all again - but it’s up to the discretion of the examiner whether to ‘upgrade’ the fault or not, depending on the situation.
Her mirror/blindspot checks and observations were reoccurring issues, couldn’t you get a serious fault for doing the same fault over and over?
Yes, that is possible, and depends on the examiners judgement. We didn’t feel that necessary in this case.
This is Bury lmao
Imagine not learning a manual transmission…
For a driving enthusiast learning manual is worth it - but what about people that just want to get from A to B? We all have different priorities in life.
Lol I’d be scared to drive an automatic u feel less in control of the car
I'd be thinking about the awkward silence to much because I'm an antisocial mug
Some examiners are quite chatty - although most keep quiet to let you concentrate. On mock tests we usually stay quiet as you don’t need to hear the rubbish we chat about normally on our lessons!
I watched the whole test, she should not pass. every turn she never check both mirrors, she only checks side mirror and she glances to it, she does not check it properly. All these mistakes could be converted in a serious mistake.
Yes indeed!
