I am learning driving in India and your videos are immensely helpful because we also drive on the left side of the road. Today I was stuck for a good 5 minutes on an uphill T junction, where I kept stalling. I would bring the clutch to bite point but was hesitant to accelerate gently as I was scared of shooting forward on a busy T junction. Once I was back home, I opened your channel and found this video. Thank you so much, Richard.

Been stalling in a 4 way intersection lately really builds character

Got my first ever car this past Saturday and binge watched alot your videos to get ready. Day 4 driving it and everything else is gravy except for hill starts, stalled like 4 times on a hill today😅😅. Surprising thing is no one honked, they just overtook me. I calmed down and eventually somehow got it. Watching this video to have my technique down 🙏🏾🔥. Thanks brother!

Your description of what a learner would do when utilizing the foot brake method is...exactly what happened to me. Just got my first manual (2012 Mustang V6) and practiced starting and stopping, gear changes, and hill starts at the empty school parking lot across from where I live. I kangaroo'd a lot, I stalled a lot, I burned rubber once. Definitely going to try utilizing the handbrake start.

I passed my test a month ago and these videos are still very helpful for refreshing my knowledge and filling in any gaps. Thank you
-
Hey Richard, you cover all the details and techniques every time. Please keep up the good work that you are doing, I have learnt so much from you.🌟

I did a hill start yesterday very successfully after watching this video! Thanks for your expert advice. Hopefully, one day I'll be able to do it without handbrake.
-
Richard! Thanks you of the wonderful information and guide you provided about Hill starts... I watched your video many times before i went for my driving test. This really helped me to pass my Test. Thank very much.

Wow, so many info in one video, glad you left traffic hill start for another time. I’ll definitely watch it few times to make every method familiar and I’m going to try some tomorrow, soooo excited 😆 I’ve done already once down hill start from gear 2, so great to hear it from you in details and well explained, huge thank you 👍🏻

I am new in driving though I passed 2.5 years before. I am watching your videos to refresh my knowledge behind the wheel . Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Thanks for the stuff about "hill start assist*.. I've had a full manual license for 30+ years but haven't had chance to drive much lately. Now I need to get a car, I'm confronted with a switch operated parking brake which you've got to press the brake pedal to release. I live in a hilly area - with vehicles parked blocking car park exits etc. - and guys who imagine that blasting the horn makes adapting so much easier (it doesn't). Your YT videos give me a chance of getting back into driving with modern cars. Many thanks.
