Tips for driving straight in Subject 3: 1. Adjust your sitting posture: Rest your head on the headrest, look straight ahead at a distance of 100 meters, keep your arms slightly inward (closer to your body), and hold both sides of the steering wheel naturally without using too much force. It's best to just feel the slight left and right movements of the steering wheel. Place your left foot on the floor of the driver's compartment to the lower left of the clutch pedal, and rest your right foot lightly on the accelerator pedal. Your body should lean back at an angle of about 110 degrees. 2. Find a reference point: Before entering the straight driving section, adjust the car to drive in the center of the road. Concentrate and look far ahead, avoiding the habit of looking at the car hood or steering wheel. Choose a point on the road about 100 meters ahead (you can refer to about 4 lamp posts if available), preferably slightly to the left of the center of the lane's wheel tracks. Keep this point aligned with your direction of travel. As the car moves forward, focus entirely on keeping the direction aligned with this point. 3. Correct the direction promptly: Turn the steering wheel gently and slowly to ensure a longer straight driving distance. Avoid making sharp turns (quick or abrupt corrections). Try not to shift gears or honk the horn during straight driving. If you must shift gears or honk, keep your left arm close to your body to stabilize the steering wheel. Avoid letting your left arm dangle, which can cause instability. If you notice any deviation from the reference point, correct it promptly with small adjustments. 4. Control the speed: Generally, it's easier to pass at higher speeds and harder at lower speeds. The recommended speed is about 35 km/h, with a maximum of 40 km/h for faster speeds.
