Hill starts can catch out even well-seasoned motorists – but he says this nifty approach could help you maneuver them like a pro.

In a TikTok video he explained: “The key is in the approach so I’m turning left and now it’s the timing of the gear so I’m off the gas clutch down selecting gear one now.

“And just before the car stops bringing the clutch up to the biting point, using a bit of acceleration now.”

“Now it’s safe to go so I’m going to accelerate. I’m not going to rush off the clutch

“I’m going to keep it about there bringing it up slowly – and now there’s another uphill road

“The key here is not to change gear too early. So I’m still in first gear and I’m going to build up to just about three and a half thousand revs, and then second gear.

“This will give me enough speed to get up the hill.”

The instructor, who started the DGN Driving School in 2014, has racked up a million followers and amassed 45 million likes on TikTok.
