Should the steering wheel be turned in the direction the car is pulling?

Under normal circumstances, the steering wheel should be turned in the opposite direction of where the car is pulling. This is necessary to keep the car moving in a straight line. Here are some driving tips: 1. Gear shifting techniques: Do not wait until the RPM is too low and the car has almost no power before downshifting, as this will increase the engine's burden. It is essential to maintain a certain driving force and speed for the vehicle and reduce the engine's load by downshifting early, especially when going uphill, driving at low speeds, or carrying heavy loads. 2. Throttle control: This is essentially a practice in the sensitivity of the foot. When parked in neutral, try pressing the throttle while seeing if you can keep the RPM fixed at a certain level. Once mastered, you can practice this while driving, as the first gear has a high speed ratio (similar to a long lever arm), making the throttle most sensitive and difficult to control. 3. Timing of gear shifting: Gear shifting is a manual action to change the gear ratio of the transmission to adapt to different road conditions and driving performance. Downshifting is suitable for overtaking and downhill driving (engine braking), while upshifting is suitable for high-speed driving, reducing RPM, and lessening the engine's load.
