How to Observe Points and Lines in Curve Driving?
2 Answers
Steps for observing points and lines in curve driving: 1. When the midpoint of the car hood touches the right yellow line, gradually steer to the left, starting with half a turn. Keep the left corner of the hood aligned with the yellow line. If the left corner is about to go beyond the yellow line, steer a bit more. If the left corner cannot reach the yellow line, steer back slightly, making continuous minor adjustments. 2. When the car hood is at the middle of the curve transition point, quickly straighten the steering wheel, usually by turning it back about one full turn. 3. When the midpoint of the car hood touches the left yellow line, steer to the right by half a turn initially, then make gradual adjustments, following the curve. During driving, avoid prolonged one-handed operation unless necessary, and do not rest your hand on the gear shift or window frame for extended periods. Do not turn the steering wheel too forcefully or make sudden movements. Avoid turning the steering wheel when the vehicle is stationary. When driving on bumpy roads, hold the steering wheel firmly with both hands to prevent loss of control and potential accidents.
I remember when I first got my driver's license, the S-curve was my biggest fear. The clumsy method taught by the instructor turned out to be practical. The key is to focus on the angle between the 1/3 position of the car's front and the lane line. For example, when turning left, watch the right front corner of the car—if it stays close to the inside of the right line, the position is just right. Also, keep an eye on the rearview mirror to ensure the distance between the car body and the white line remains about two fingers' width. Don't rush to turn the steering wheel sharply; turn it half a circle in advance and then adjust according to the reference points. If the car drifts, pull it back in the opposite direction. Beginners can intentionally drive slower, roll down the window to see the ground markings clearly, and try a few more times to get a feel for the car. Actually, once you get the hang of curves, it becomes as natural as rowing a boat along a stream.
