Advanced Driving Hub

Something a bit different.

Not sure of the guy's background but some nice calm little bits of driving in congested London, delivered with humour.

"God on a quad" and "The Shadow - Coming to a morgue near you soon"

Scooter boys, absolutely nothing out of the ordinary in any of it. It is how driving in London north or south of the river is everyday.

By "a bit different" I meant the presentation style of the commentary ... not what he encountered.

"Ah , Emergency! Man in a fruit salad blazer, driving a golf cart, needs to get through. Hang on are people not respecting the authority of his flashing lights? Outrageous... "

Epic, great find

Like it - keep chilled...peace to everyone...

On a more serious note I reckon it's interesting if your driving in heavy traffic, just to aim to keep your car moving, let others change lanes, pull out/in, keep space all around and make progress in a controlled way...and yes use great Observation and all those 'advanced' skills we all talk about. I honestly don't think it greatly effects your journey time - but it's definitely more peaceful and probably safer.

One of the negative comments I sometimes get from videos on Facebook and YouTube is that they are boring. "Nothing happens". Others have said the riding is so relaxed and calm. I've taken BOTH as compliments.

Worst?

Good vid...I'd love to spend a day or 2 with them to better understand how they do it.
