Do not fail the driving test for the simple driver error of misleading signals. You will not be failed for going the wrong way by the DSA examiner as long as it is done safely.
Another fault you want to avoid is Undue Hesitation, which is normally mis-understood by many learners.

In this instructor video, I will be giving you some important advice that will probably one day help prevent some of you provisioal licence holders from failing the driving test in the UK on a bus lane.
Remeber just because other cars are not driving in the bus lane does not mean you as a learner should not be in it. Check the blue signs before making a decision, the outcome of your driving test could depend on it.

It is important that you are familiar with the DSA basic car maintenance show me tell me questions that are asked not just for the benefit of passing the practical driving test, but more for your own safety once you get the pass certificate.
Knowing your tyres meet the minimum requirements, brakes are working, de-misting windscreen or using fog lights could help prevent an accident and injuries when you buy your own car. Do not just rely on breakdown services like the AA, RAC or Green Flag to bail you out.

In this driving video, I show you how to correctly use your indicators to alert other road users to your intentions at both mini and major roundabouts. Many learner drivers get confused as to what signal shoud be used when following the road ahead at a major multi-lane roundabout.
Another point of confusion is if the DSA examiner expects a test candidate to indicate when exiting a mini roundabout.
You always have to signal on approach if you are turning left or right, never when following the road ahead.

In this short driving lesson video I want to illustrate a common reason why people fail the DSA driving test, failing to deal with a meeting traffic situation safely.
Don't rush towards on-coming vehicles especially large HGVs or buses even if you have the right of way, as they tend to use their size to barge and intimidate other road users including learners displaying 'L' plates.

This driving video highlights the forthcoming changes that the DSA will be making to the driving test in April and October 2010.
The april test change will not even be noticed by many candidates but the introduction of independent driving to the test in october 2010 is a major change that could see a drastic drop in the pass rate and could even be considered unfair since candidate will need to remember a series of instructions which could be a problem for those who might have learning difficulties.
Please note that the route used on this driving video is not an actual dsa one for the hendon or mill hill centres.
If you need extra help or want driving lessons in london to prepare for the test or practise the independent element of the assessment, then give me a call.

This driving school video deals with being aware of road signs and markings during your driving lessons.
While most learner drivers will notice things like speed limits, traffic lights and some road markings, there are many signs which while not giving the driver instructions, will have valuable information on them, and one of these could save you from failing the driving test. Get into the habit of taking note of signs as you go past them while out in your car practising.

It would have happened to you before during driving lessons, cars very close behind you tailgating and thus you should not be surprised if it also happens when the DSA examiner is assessing you for a full British licence.
The most important thing is how do you deal these situations, without making a mistake. Hopefully in this lessons video you will find a useful tip or two, but what ever you do, make sure it is safe according to the DSA rules and not what commonly happens in the real world.

This driving video shows the importantance of using the correct signals at junctions, including knowing when to cancel a previous turning signal to avoid confusing other road drivers.
While the car driving in this video is not a learner, the effect of the mistake is clear and is a good example to take note of for the UK driving test.

You should normally try and drive around a mini roundabout, avoiding as much as possible the solid white marked area, however as this driving lesson video shows, this is not always possible and you might have to straight line it instead.
I have seen many learner drivers try to go around this particular mini-roundabout instead of driving straight across it and almost hit the kerb in the process.
The purpose of this roundabout is just to give priorty to traffic, which is why it is so small.
