Another new video - Brake/Gear Overlap (BGOL)

[Reg Local]

I've had a busy weekend so far! Here's my second video in 24 hours - how to avoid brake/gear overlap (BGOL):

Again mods, no ads, so no need to delete.

In fact, monetising these videos is pretty pointless to be honest, so from the next video onwards, I'll start a new "Reg Local videos" thread so they'll all be in one place.

Thanks again for your efforts Reg.

I'm very guilty of BGOL so will actively try and introduce this into my driving.

Re the clutch being down towards the end of the braking phase, what's the cut off before it would be considered coasting?

It isn't coasting if you just press the clutch to prevent judder as the speed comes down. If you're pressing the clutch as you start to brake, or whilst you're still travelling at a higher speed, that could be considered as coasting, but if you leave the clutch engaged until the engine revs get close to tickover speed and then press the clutch to prevent judder (prior to coming off the brakes & changing gear), then it's not coasting - just mechanically sympathetic application of system.

So what's wrong with H&T?

Did I say there was anything wrong with it?
