Is Driving at 120 km/h Considered High-Speed?

Yes. When taking a high-speed curve: Simultaneously pressing the clutch and brake is the most unsafe practice. Under any circumstances, driving with the clutch depressed increases the vehicle's inertia. You should downshift first and then brake while driving. When turning or changing lanes: First, turn your head to check behind the car before looking at the rearview mirror. This is because poorly adjusted mirrors may have blind spots. Additionally, turning on the turn signal may prompt nearby vehicles to accelerate or slow down, making it impossible to judge the situation accurately based solely on the rearview mirror. While driving: In addition to maintaining a safe distance from vehicles ahead and behind, you should also try to avoid driving side by side with vehicles to your left or right. Either accelerate to overtake or slow down to create space. The biggest drawback of driving side by side is distraction, as it shifts focus from the road ahead to the sides, which can particularly heighten nervousness for beginner drivers.
