Should I Signal To Overtake Parked Cars?

In this driving lesson video I will clearly explain when you should and shouldn't indicate to overtake a parked car, as always you will need to judge each situation individually as there is no simple one size fits all answer.

I just had my first lesson yesterday and when I am stopping my instructor says the best way is to brake a little big first then clutch then brake a bit more as your using the clutch less is that the best way rather than clutch first then brake. I love your videos there so helpful

At least I'll know that when I learn to Overtake properly. Especially if I ever be on a Duel Carraigway and Motorway?

[jonathoncary]

I started the advanced with rospa and was told I was using indicators too much. Only use them if there s a reason too half way around a turn /overtaking. I dont like that. I might need to do something else if something comes into view like turn or brake quick. Also not too change down a gear coming to a junction, just brake. I gave the course up eventualy.

[evanopedal]

In Washington State and Canada, you need to signal in the direction you move the vehicle whether overtaking, turning, or reversing out of the driveway maybe because the roads are wider.

[ElmoLahti]

What if there’s a junction right before the parked cars? Wouldn’t the signal be vague?
