  • The cars aren't even on the correct side of the road.

  • @c7ftube As it is a video recap for the UK where as with 34% of the rest of the world we drive on the left. The first legal reference in Britain to an order for traffic to remain on the left was in 1756, a little before Henery Ford messed things up, by making a Left hand drive car

  • spelled curb wrong....

  • @cleor11 kerb or curb For the noun designating the edge of a roadway (or the edge of a British pavement/ American sidewalk/ Australian footpath). Curb is the older spelling, and in the UK as well as in the US, it is still the proper spelling for the verb meaning restrain

  • 1st it would not matter too much if you are anywhere say between 35 and 50 degrees, but you need to be consistent as possible. To work out a good reference park the car look straight ahead then imagine where 45 degrees from a point ahead be would be on the middle of the front windscreen maybe it will line with a point on the nearside windscreen wipers this is now your reference for 45 deg's. Now when you reach 45 deg's your reference will be in your line of sight looking straight down the road.

  • 21 people have failed the road test

  • @dancodered23 Not in Cheltenham today!, they do not have enough examiners to fail that many in 1 day at the moment.

  • Try parallel parking a Sprinter van with your boss bellowing 'instructions' at you and you can't see the vehicle behind. That's no fun. My own car I can put on a sixpence.

    It's a lot to take in for just one manoeuver when learning. It certainly overwhelmed me. Was glad it wasn't in the test. I picked it up better on my own afterwards.

  • @parkdrivingschool
