How to Operate Steering Safely and Fuel-Efficiently When Changing Lanes and Turning?
1 Answers
During driving, steering operations should be smooth. Avoid repeatedly turning the steering wheel back and forth, maintain straight-line driving, and prevent fuel wastage caused by sharp turns, sudden directional changes, and frequent lane changes. Tips for lane changing: 1. When changing lanes, prevent abrupt steering into adjacent lanes to avoid collisions with suddenly appearing vehicles or side-slipping on slippery roads. Lane changes should not be too slow; driving with prolonged pressure on lane markings can disrupt other vehicles. Generally, after overtaking, maintain a safe distance before returning to the original lane. On roads divided into motor vehicle lanes and non-motor vehicle lanes, cars should drive on motor vehicle lanes, motorcycles should stay to the right within motor vehicle lanes, while non-motor vehicles and disabled person-specific vehicles should use non-motor vehicle lanes. 2. Vehicles must adhere to right-side traffic rules: On roads without a central dividing line or separate motor/non-motor vehicle lanes, cars should drive in the middle while non-motor vehicles keep to the right. Large and small vehicles must follow their respective paths; large vehicles may occupy lanes without hindering normal small vehicle operation. When small vehicles drive at low speeds or encounter following traffic, they should move to large vehicle lanes. If there is an overtaking lane, cars may use it for passing but must return to their original lane afterward.
