How to Learn Driving for People with Poor Car Sense?
2 Answers
People with poor car sense should build confidence, stay diligent, and not get discouraged, taking steady and solid steps. Below is relevant information about car sense: 1. Methods: (1) Master the correct driving posture. Comfort is key when driving, so the first thing a learner should do after getting in the car is to adjust the seat position. The front and back distance of the seat should be adjusted so that the left foot can press the clutch pedal all the way down with ease. During the process of pressing and releasing the clutch, the right hand can adjust the seat forward or backward based on comfort until satisfaction is achieved. (2) Rearview mirrors are crucial. Rearview mirrors act as the driver's "third eye," providing additional safety while driving. During the driving test, learners need to adjust the rearview mirrors to obtain a better view of the rear. 2. Operation: Beginners are advised to first study theory before getting behind the wheel. Only by memorizing the basic operational methods theoretically can they develop correct operational habits in practice. Continuous practice and summarization will help cultivate the right car sense over time.
When I was learning to drive, I also had terrible car control skills. My instructor always said my sense of direction was like a drunk person's. Later, I figured it out: don't rush to hit the road first, find an empty lot specifically to practice steering wheel feel—practice turning the wheel lock-to-lock until it becomes muscle memory; press the accelerator and brake barefoot to find the right pressure, so your foot won't shake. After each drive, draw a route map in a notebook to review, marking where you turned too early or too late. The most crucial part is overcoming psychological barriers, telling yourself that if you drive crookedly, at worst you'll run over a cone, not hit a wall. It took me a full twenty extra hours of basic training to finally feel at one with the car.
