Subject 2 curve driving skills - The simplest method for navigating S-curves is as follows: 1. Drive on the right side Taking left-then-right as an example, drive on the right side. When reaching the curve, immediately turn the steering wheel one full rotation to the left when the left front of the car touches the right edge line of the curve. Then control the angle to keep the left front of the car always following the right edge line of the curve. 2. Right front follows the left edge line: When transitioning from left turn to right turn, if the left front touches the left edge line of the curve, quickly straighten the steering wheel. When the right front touches the left edge line of the curve, turn the steering wheel one full rotation to the right, then control the direction to keep the right front always following the left edge line. 3. Straighten the wheel in time: When the front of the car is aligned with the exit, straighten the steering wheel.
I think the most crucial aspects of curve driving are controlling the speed and accurately judging the reference points. First, the speed must be slow, controlled well with the clutch, to allow time for adjustments. Before entering the curve, try to stay close to the right side. When the middle of the car hood covers the right line, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the left, keeping the car hood aligned with the right line. After passing the first curve, once the left front corner of the car touches the left line, straighten the steering wheel. Then, watch the right front corner; when it touches the left line, turn the steering wheel one full turn to the right. Throughout the process, frequently glance at the left and right rearview mirrors to ensure the wheels don't cross the lines. This method was repeatedly emphasized by the instructor, and it took me over ten practice sessions to master. The key is to practice more; once you develop a feel for the car, you won't panic.
Curve driving is actually much easier than reverse parking. The simple method I used during the test was 'slow speed + minor adjustments'. First, control the speed, the slower the better, like a snail crawling. Don't panic when turning the steering wheel, a maximum of one turn or half a turn is enough; turning too much will definitely cause you to cross the line. For the first curve, watch the left rearview mirror to keep the car body about 30 centimeters from the edge line, and adjust the steering slightly if it feels too close. For the right curve, adjust in the opposite direction. The second curve is the opposite, while also checking the right rearview mirror to judge the distance. Remember not to stare at the steering wheel; keep observing the rearview mirrors and the reference points on the hood. Practice a few times to find the best reference points, as each car's position is different. Once you're familiar with your own reference points, the test will be a breeze.
