Here's my latest Quick Tip video. Thanks to everyone who has subscribed over on YouTube. I've just passed the milestone of 1000 subscribers. Great to know the videos are being used by plenty of Tutors/Observers/Associates out there.

Very good!


Hmmm no 'thumbs up' smiley. Use your imagination ;
Your 'standard' is how you drive alone, not how you drive during a test.

You'll have to educate me - I've not heard the term priority point.

The "give priority to vehicles from the opposite direction" sign/road marking ? (although I hadn't heard it described as priority point).
Mike didn't stop at the line but moved forward to a wider bit of road.

Hang on - this is getting more interesting!
The first round sign is not legal. The solid white line is a bit random. I'm still reading..........
It appears a Give Way line is optional and wouldn't really fit there even if the sign was legal. Definitely wouldn't fit at the second sign. Traffic Signs Manual Chapter 3 section 4.8

I think you did it well. Stopped in a place that allowed the oncoming to turn right if they wanted. Funny the bloke on YT thinks you got it wrong!
