Is 180 Degrees a Full Turn or Half a Turn?

[OJustin]

Steering wheel rotation of one full turn is 360 degrees; half a turn is 180 degrees. The grip method for the steering wheel involves not letting go of both hands while turning, allowing rotation of up to 180 degrees in each direction. This range of steering is sufficient for most situations. In rare cases, such as sharp hairpin turns on mountain roads or parking maneuvers, simply repeat this action with alternating hands, which is commonly referred to as "full-hand steering." Push-Pull Method (Correction Method): Suitable for straight-line driving. The left hand primarily controls while the right hand assists, making minor adjustments and corrections to maintain straight-line travel. When slight deviations occur, minimal steering wheel adjustments are sufficient. For lane changes, gently push or pull the steering wheel. Hand-to-Hand Method (Half-Turn Method): Suitable for general turns. When continuous steering wheel rotation is required for turning, apply even force and turn in full motions. Both hands should coordinate—for large-radius curves, one hand gently pushes while the other pulls back, typically not exceeding half a turn in either direction. This coordinated back-and-forth action, repeated 2-3 times, completes the turn.
