DESCRIPTION

If you’re preparing for your driving test, this episode is a must-listen! Many students fail their road test because they miss or misinterpret key traffic signs—and it's more common than you think. In this podcast, we break down why recognizing and understanding road signs is not just about passing your test, but also about staying safe on the road.

From grade signs in the mountains to mile marker signs that can help in emergencies, we explore how traffic signs communicate crucial information to drivers. You’ll also hear a story that highlights how overconfidence in your road sign knowledge can lead to serious consequences. Plus, we dive into why so many drivers develop bad habits—like rolling through STOP signs—and how to avoid them before test day.

Whether you're a new driver or someone brushing up for a retest, this episode offers practical advice, memorable stories, and tips you won't get from the handbook. Knowing your signs isn't just about memorization—it's about interpretation and safe decision-making.

Don’t let something as simple as a missed sign cost you your license. Hit play and get ready to drive smarter and safer!

Good luck on your road test.

DESCRIPTION

In this episode of our podcast, Learning to Drive & Rules of the Road, we dive deep into the essential skills and knowledge every new driver—and even experienced ones—should master. From the hidden complexities of right-of-way to the common misconceptions that can lead to dangerous situations, we explore what it really means to drive safely and responsibly.

We discuss the unspoken social contract of driving, where not everyone follows the rules as they should, and how you can navigate the road confidently despite that reality. You'll learn practical tips for handling tricky situations like turning at intersections, dealing with yield signs, and moving through roundabouts smoothly.

New drivers, in particular, will gain valuable insights into the challenges of learning to drive in today’s fast-paced, rule-bending environment. Most importantly, we reflect on the enormous trust we place in others every time we get behind the wheel—and how understanding the rules of the road can help you stay safe while doing so.

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to brush up on your driving knowledge, this conversation will help you see the road—and the drivers around you—in a whole new way. Tune in and drive smarter!

Good luck on your road test.

DESCRIPTION

In this episode of our podcast, we uncover the real secret to dealing with aggressive drivers—and it’s not what you think. From tailgaters to lane weavers, road rage is on the rise, and we dive into the psychology behind it, the dangers it poses, and how you can protect yourself and stay calm behind the wheel.

We also explore why self-driving cars are still struggling to handle real-world traffic situations and what that means for the future of autonomous vehicles. Plus, we bust the myth of the “infamous” zipper merge and explain why it often leads to even more frustration on the road.

You’ll learn practical, science-backed strategies to handle road rage, keep your cool, and even avoid becoming part of the problem. We also discuss surprising factors—like high temperatures and car maintenance—that can increase road rage incidents, and why it might be time to rethink how we coexist with e-bikes on busy streets.

If you've ever felt stressed out while driving, this episode is packed with insights, tips, and real talk to help you become a safer, more mindful driver. Buckle up—this is one ride you don’t want to miss.

Good luck on your road test.
