How Can Novice Drivers Better Control the Steering Wheel?
1 Answers
Methods for novice drivers to better control the steering wheel: Imagine the steering wheel as a clock face, with the left hand positioned between the 9 and 10 o'clock positions and the right hand between the 3 and 4 o'clock positions. This posture provides better body support in the event of a collision. If you only grip the steering wheel with four fingers and lift the thumb to rest on the wheel, a sudden turn of the front wheels causing rapid rotation of the steering wheel could potentially break the thumb. Poor steering control during turns can easily lead to accidents, so it's best to reduce speed when turning. Enter the curve according to its arc and gradually turn the wheel. Begin straightening the wheel as the car's front starts to align, and fully straighten it before accelerating forward. Remember not to count the number of wheel rotations during turns—focusing solely on rotation counts instead of the car's direction can easily lead to accidents.
