How to Steer the Wheel When Making a U-turn in Subject Three?
2 Answers
When making a U-turn in Subject Three, you can drive close to the right side of the road near the U-turn location, slow down, and shift to a lower gear while turning on the left turn signal. Here are some additional details: 1. If you find that the U-turn operation will not affect the traffic in the lane, make a decisive left turn. 2. When the front of the car is about to cross the left edge of the road, immediately straighten the wheel, brake, and quickly turn the steering wheel two full turns to the right. 3. Honk the horn and observe the traffic behind the car and on both sides of the road. Once you confirm it is safe, immediately shift into reverse gear and start backing up. 4. When you determine there is enough space to complete the left U-turn, stop immediately, quickly shift into first gear, turn the steering wheel all the way to the left, and complete the U-turn.
When I first took the driving test for Subject 3, making a U-turn really scared me. Turning the steering wheel, I was afraid something might go wrong. The instructor taught me to go slowly at about 20km/h, brake in advance, and observe all around to ensure safety before making the move. The key to steering correctly: turn the wheel about 90 to 120 degrees, and as the car starts to turn in the direction of the U-turn, decisively turn the wheel back without hesitation. After completing the turn, immediately straighten the wheel to keep the car moving straight, otherwise, it's easy to cross the line or skid. The whole process should be smooth without any jerks, combined with looking ahead, not staring at the steering wheel. A common mistake for beginners is turning the steering wheel too slowly or too sharply, causing the car to lose control. It takes practice to develop a feel for it. After repeatedly simulating it at the practice field, I finally passed. Now, looking back, it feels quite an achievement.
