What are the precautions when turning a car?
1 Answers
When turning a car, the steering wheel should be operated in accordance with the curvature of the road and coordinated with the driving speed to ensure appropriate steering angle, proper timing for turning, and timely correction of direction. It is strictly forbidden to take both hands off the steering wheel to prevent dangerous deviations in direction. More detailed information is as follows: 1. Slow down when turning: Avoid turning the steering wheel too sharply to prevent excessive centrifugal force causing the car to skid. If the car skids, immediately release the accelerator pedal and turn the steering wheel toward the side where the rear wheels are skidding. Once the vehicle resumes straight driving, correct the steering wheel and continue driving. 2. Avoid using the brakes: When turning, try to avoid using the brakes, especially emergency braking, to prevent skidding or accidents. 3. When making left or right turns at intersections, the driver must use turn signals: a) Left turn: In addition to signaling and changing lanes in advance, try to stay close to the center of the road while waiting to turn to facilitate the passage of vehicles behind. b) Right turn: In addition to merging into the outer lane in advance, use the right turn signal to alert pedestrians on the roadside. Reduce speed when turning right and be mindful of the impact of the inner wheel difference to avoid scraping pedestrians.
