What should I pay attention to when driving long distance for the first time?

[OJuliana]

For the first long-distance drive, it is important to maintain a safe distance, be cautious of large trucks, minimize lane changes, and maintain safe driving awareness. Maintain a safe distance: At a speed of 100 km/h, you should keep a distance of at least 80 meters from the vehicle in front. This not only allows time for braking but also provides room for error. Be cautious of large trucks: When driving near trucks, be alert to their sudden lane changes. Since truck turn signals are often less noticeable, pay close attention to them. Minimize lane changes: Reduce lane changes as much as possible. When changing lanes, always signal first, then check the rearview mirror. If there are blind spots (especially on the right side), turn your head to ensure a clear view. Maintain safe driving awareness: Always keep a safe driving mindset and never let your guard down. With this awareness, you can enhance your defensive driving and avoid most potential accidents.
