I passed my driving test on my first go. My instructor thinks the credit goes to him(I was basically paying the chap to use his car to practice, that's all the good he did me), but all the credit really goes to you. Thank you for these videos. Thank you!!!

I'm from Philippines. My instuctor was surprised with my improvement. My secret is watching your videos everyday. Thank you

I've been driving for over ten years. No one's ever taught me this! Genius!

This entire channel is exactly what "evergreen content" matter how many years go by somone will always be able to learn from this as if we were on a zoom call. Amazing dedication.

Wow this is the most detailed car parking tutorial so far.

I think this is the best 45 degree parking tutorial in YouTube. I failed my first practical driving test because I could not do a proper 45 degree reverse parking. The techniques I learned from the driving school were more of guided drills than lessons. This tutorial clarified a lot of concepts and reference points for me. After the second take, I now passed the practical driving test and have a driver's license. My parking is not that perfect yet, so I will keep practicing and keep on coming back to this video until I am near perfect at it. Thanks!

I passed yesterday, and I would like to thank you for this video. Everything I know about driving started with me clicking on this video. Driving has never been this accessible if not for this channel.

I really can't thank you enough, just passed my test an hour ago, and I must say watching your videos really helped me.

Why don't instructors explain all this nice and gentle? they just assume that everyone knows it

[ladyraiderr]

You're such a great instructor! Thank you very much for your patience and detailed explanations.

Thanks a mil for your videos. I an from Ireland and passed my test in first attempt. Really appreciate the time and detail of your videos. You really understand the perspective of a newbie driver and provide subtle details that really help new drivers like myself to gain confidence. God bless you.

I have learnt & actually improved on my driving skills only by watching your videos which was a straight 80% improvement within a day! Even my instructor was surprised and disappointed at the same time i noticed! 22 lessons with no progression at all. I wish i had thought of watching videos before starting instead of wasting 38 (22+16 before the pendamic) lessons in total so far =waste of time +money+energy and lacking confidence +disappointments thinking i was slow or dumb ! Today I actually told my instructor to sod off because i realised he was not helping me at all! Thanks to you! 🙌

[maisiebeckwith]

This really helped me today, from memorising this video I was able to park perfectly 3 times 👌 Thank you

After watching several videos on reverse bay parking, this one by far and away explained it in the most understandable way and gave me some really helpful makers to use!!!

[Nooziterp]

My work car park has recently become reverse parking only, so I found this very useful. Thanks.

[chace]

This was explained so well thank you i passed my test recently but using the 90 degree method which just isnt practical in real life the reference points you explained have made loads of sense I'm going to try this cheers!

[Abhishek-sukr]
