What is the Hood View Method for Curve Driving?
1 Answers
Curve driving using the hood view method refers to observing the hood during the S-curve driving test in Subject 2 of the driver's exam. When turning left, watch the right corner of the hood align with the left line, and when turning right, watch the left corner of the hood align with the right line. Curve driving, commonly known as the S-curve, is a key assessment point in Subject 2 of the driver's test. The requirement is to drive the vehicle along an S-shaped road of specified width without pressing the edge lines, while smoothly controlling the steering. The main trick for Subject 2 curve driving is to master the principle: left point aligns with the right line, and right point aligns with the left line. Below is a supplementary explanation of the hood view method for curve driving: 1. For a left turn, immediately turn the steering wheel one full circle to the left when the left vertex of the hood touches the right yellow edge line. 2. After completing the first turn and preparing for the second right turn, straighten the steering wheel when the right vertex of the hood touches the right yellow line. 3. When the rounded point at the left 1/3 of the hood touches the left yellow line, turn the steering wheel one full circle to the right. 4. Once the front of the vehicle exits the curve, observe the rearview mirror. When the rear of the vehicle is about to exit the curve, straighten the steering wheel and drive out of the curve driving test area.
