How Many Turns of the Steering Wheel for Turning?
1 Answers
Here is the relevant introduction on how many turns of the steering wheel are needed when turning: 1. Right turn: one turn of the steering wheel: For a right turn, one turn of the steering wheel is generally sufficient. If it's a large intersection, you may feel the need to turn more during the right turn, but you should stop turning. If it's a small intersection and the angle isn't enough, you can adjust slightly. The angle of the steering wheel for a right turn depends on the size of the intersection—the larger the intersection, the smaller the angle of the steering wheel turn. 2. Left turn: half a turn of the steering wheel: Turning too much at a large intersection may lead you into oncoming traffic. Especially when turning left across two or three lanes, excessive steering in the right lane can interfere with left-turning vehicles in the left lane. The correct method is to turn the steering wheel slightly less than half a turn initially, then adjust if needed until it feels right. Additional Information: Precautions for turning: 1. For a tight turn, turn the steering wheel as much as possible, then gradually straighten it after completing the turn. 2. For a wide turn, turn the steering wheel slowly. 3. Beginners often focus only on what's directly ahead or to one side during a turn, neglecting blind spots, which can lead to hitting the curb or causing a scrape. 4. Always check for obstacles below the rearview mirrors; if necessary, open the door and look before turning.
