How to Drive Straight?

[McMartin]

Keeping the steering wheel steady is crucial to avoid making the car zigzag due to nervous hand tremors. For example, using the center line of the road, the roadside line, curbs, or large trees along the roadside can help maintain straight driving over time. It's important to focus your gaze far ahead, as this makes it easier to detect if you're veering off course.

When I first started driving, I always swerved like a dragon. Later I realized the key lies in vision! You need to look farther ahead, focusing on the end of the road instead of just staring 3-4 meters in front of the hood. Hold the steering wheel lightly, like carrying a tray—don’t death-grip it, and keep your thumbs outside the spokes. If you feel the car drifting, make slight adjustments; don’t jerk the wheel suddenly. The steering itself has some play, so you don’t need to constantly move it. The faster you go, the lighter the steering feels—easing off the speed slightly makes it easier to control. Practice your feel on open roads with fewer straight sections, and gradually, it’ll become muscle memory.
