- I've had a few L's that I followed through town
and I'm like, "Oh, you need some help,
you need a driving instructor,
you just failed your driving test in two blocks".
Like right there, that was terrible. What was that?
Don't go around the corner and stop,
that's the way you're going to get rear-ended.
(upbeat music)
Look they got, you should have envy,
student driver sign envy.
They're like a sign,
they don't help.
(both chuckle)
- [Rick] They don't help at all.
- [Charlie] It's just a target.
- [Rick] Yep.
- [Rick] I caught one the dash cam one day
coming out of Superstore
and there was an L sticker on the back of the car.
And so she's obviously
waiting and she's overthinking the whole thing.
Some guy
(honking sound)
honks behind them, right?
The mom gets out.
She's like banging on the L sticker at the back.
And then she just like flips them the bird.
(both chuckle)
- Well, at least she's being supportive.
- This video is made possible by the chorus package.
Pass your driver's test first time, because we know
that your driver's test
is the most stressful day of your life.
And without some form of driver training,
your chances of passing are less than 50%.
As a bonus, we'll include both the defensive
and winter driving smart courses.
These will make you a safer, smarter driver
and reduce your chances of being involved in an accident.
Click down in the description there and get full details.
We'll go left at the controlled intersection.
So a controlled intersection is traffic lights,
stoplight, or stop sign, or yield sign.
Shoulder check,
(clicking sounds) soon as you put that signal on,
shoulder check.
(ring sound)
Straight in and turn
and shoulder check just before you turn,
just before you turn the steering wheel.
So, solid white lines prohibit you from changing lanes.
Usually they're found at, most often they're found at
like when you get near the intersection.
We also find them at crosswalks as well.
We had a driving examiner in Victoria,
that was his pet peeve, was solid white lines.
So here, shoulder check, now go around the corner.
- [Rick] Nice.
I get lots of new drivers on the channel that come back:
"I failed because I didn't shoulder check".
- Yeah, that's one of the biggest things they get you on.
- Yeah. Yeah.
(engine revving sounds)
That's not nearly in a good a shape as mine.
(both chuckle)
- Yeah, it doesn't sound like it.
- No, it really doesn't.
- [Rick] That sounds like it's hurting.
(more engine revving sounds)
- ROC cars sound better than that.
(Rick laughs)
Maybe that would be easier.
(student chuckles)
- Best is just don't work in North America.
(student chuckles)
- No.
- They really don't.
Vespers are really an Italian, you know,
on the Mediterranean coast kind of thing.
- [Rick] You want to like get to the next town?
- [Charlie] Yeah.
- Okay, you don't have to wait for them to get to the curb.
Just half a lane from your lane.
- Is this a street?
- It is
Birds, oh, come on.
(Charlie honks the horn)
Just drive, they'll go.
They'll go.
(Charlie chuckles)
They fly, see, they fly .
- [Charlie] There we go.
(both chuckles)
- Oh, another five feet.
- Would you just drive?
(both chuckles)
I didn't realize that edge was a bleeding heart.
(Rick chuckles)
- [Charlie] Oh man.
- [Rick] Did you see that comment?
- [Charlie] Yeah.
- [Rick] Do you know who he is?
- [Charlie] Yeah.
- Is he cool?
- Yeah.
(Rick laughs)
- [Rick] That was so funny.
I'm like, Charlie'll get a kick out of that.
Go right.
- Like what we saw was named after one of the good ones.
(Rick laughs)
- Stop, there's a stop line.
Perfect. And then I can creep out.
So complete stop, then creep up.
Quick shoulder check over here and you go.
- And yeah, I guess the stop isn't just like,
well, I think that stop.
It's like the,
- No, it actually has to
- Yeah, that back motion.
- [Rick] Yeah.
And just keep in mind here,
this is the school zone until five o'clock.
So, it's only 30.
- Good thing I was just hitting 30,
I would've kept going.
- We're going to go left at the roundabout.
- That's a lot of vehicles in that roundabout.
(Rick chuckles)
- It's why roundabouts are so awesome.
(Charlie chuckles)
- It's just fit in where you can.
Left and
- [Rick] Yep, signal right.
Yep, stay off the truck even.
See that alley right there?
- Yeah.
- Pull past it and then back down the alley.
- Back down the alley?
- [Rick] Yeah, back down the alley.
- [Charlie] All right.
So since I'm on the road, would I signal to go into it?
- Yep, signal, signal when you reverse.
In the direction you're going to go.
- Now, when you do the arm behind the seat thing
in the test,
are they going to get on you for reversing with one hand?
- [Rick] Nope, that's the way it's done.
(upbeat music)
- I'm in the reversing championship.
- Yeah.
(upbeat music)
- Old Ryan Reynolds movie called Hooper,
at the beginning of the movie,
he's driving down the freeway backwards
in a Chevy short box stepside.
(Rick chuckles)
55, 55 miles an hour.
(both chuckle)
And the cop goes to pull him over and he's like,
but I'm not speeding.
We'll go back up that way, then go that way.
- All right.
- Okay, get her going.
You're in front of that pickup truck there behind you.
(click sounds)
(ring sound)
- [Rick] See, you're over the stop line.
- [Charlie] Am I?
- So make sure you're looking for that
when you come up to the intersection.
You're looking for your stop line,
'cause it just rolls under the front
and that's when you come to a stop.
'Cause there's a couple of places in town,
on left turns, if you don't stop behind the stop line,
the left turning traffic is coming around
and you're out too far beyond the stop line.
They'll ding your front end.
