How to Steer the Wheel in Case of a Scratch?
2 Answers
You need to steer to the left side, but the angle of the steering wheel should not be too large. Drive slowly forward while observing the situation on the right side. Brake in time to make adjustments and avoid greater damage. When parking or driving a motor vehicle, always pay attention to the surroundings of the vehicle to avoid collisions.
Last week, when my car scraped against another vehicle in a narrow alley, I panicked for a moment but quickly steadied myself. The key is not to jerk the steering wheel—just turn it slightly, like 10 degrees in the opposite direction, to stabilize the car and avoid losing control. That time, I only ended up with a bit of paint damage. When driving normally, develop the habit of staying alert—keep your eyes on the road and hold the steering wheel lightly for quick minor adjustments. Braking should also be coordinated—press gently to slow down instead of slamming on the brakes. New drivers might nervously oversteer, which can worsen the collision or even cause a rollover. After a scrape, pull over first to check the damage—don’t rush out to discuss compensation, safety comes first. Remembering this can reduce the risk of major accidents.
