Advanced Driving Hub

Although, playing Devil's advocate, if the situation was to be repeated today with Mr Plod wanting driver training, who would they ask? Racing drivers, or organisations like HPC/RoSPA/IAM? They'd, again, have to ask racing and perhaps, other competition drivers. Because, without the editions of Roa...

Thanks for the advice chaps, but I know what the problem is. I know where to look, how to assess the bend and where to position. I know where to turn in, apply the throttle and how to stay on the correct line. It's a concentration issue more than anything. If I give it my full attention my line wil...

When I did my course, the most difficult thing I found to learn was the approach to bends, getting the correct speed, completing all my braking, changing gear and then entering the corner at or around the correct speed. I became confident with limit points quite quickly, but found that judging a co...

Sometimes known as "hinting". Yes indeed, you introduced me to that principle several years ago. However, I've never been quite sure whether the 'hint' is meant to be a small but important initial movement of the steering wheel, minutely separated from the main stering input; or whether i...

Here's where much of my knowledge derives its origin and where much of what is considered to be fact comes from. SBDTP - Some Bloke Down The Pub AFOAF - A Friend Of A Friend AMOM - A Mate Of Mine IRIOTI - I Read It On The Internet MPTS - Most People Think So ....and there's always IDCWMPT - I don't...

A vehicle (think stability issues of motorcycles) which can 'smell' diesel spills? Is that so bad? No, it isn't; but unfortunately along with the genuinely useful aids comes a load of other frivolous/intrusive stuff that I really wouldn't want. It seems to me there's far too much complexity now bei...

"The machines are taking over." That's what somebody is reckoned to have said many years ago - probably largely in jest at the time - but that's the way we're heading, and it seems to be only a matter of time before some form of artificial intelligence appears on the scene. If/when that ha...

A169, A170, A171, B1416 - well they were until I wore 'em out.

I don't know what it means in total, except it certainly does not mean no overtaking.

Anyhow it's a bum system that should never have been introduced.

I'd say a fairly high percentage of members here have sought professional coaching or seek to do so. These same was probably true at ADUK. I don't see that it matters whether you have been professionally (or otherwise) coached or not to contribute here. Aye, it's a good job too, otherwise I'd be ge...
