When the car body tilts to the right, how should the steering wheel be turned?

Turn the steering wheel to the left, and the front of the car will move to the left; turn the steering wheel to the right, and the front of the car will move to the right. The method of steering is the same as when reversing. When the front of the car deviates to one side, correct it by turning to the other side. If the car body leans to the left, it needs to move to the right to straighten, so turn the steering wheel to the right.

As a novice who often drives in the city, when the car body tilts to the right, I immediately slow down and avoid stomping on the accelerator, while gently steering the wheel to the left to balance the car. This isn’t about frantically turning the wheel but making slow adjustments to the angle. For example, tilting to the right in a curve often indicates poor front-wheel grip, so slight counter-steering helps stabilize the car. If this happens on rainy days or uneven roads, I check whether the tire pressure is even, as low pressure or uneven wear could cause the tilt. Afterwards, I always take the car to a professional shop to inspect the suspension or shock absorbers. The key to safe driving is staying calm and addressing potential hazards step by step.

From the experience of vehicle maintenance, a rightward tilt in the car body is usually caused by an imbalance in the suspension system or uneven tire pressure. To correct the direction, you should steer to the left, but the action should be gentle and not too aggressive. Specifically, when driving, if the car tilts to the right when entering a curve on the highway, I would reduce speed slightly and then turn slightly to the left to regain traction. If the car tilts to the right while driving straight, it might be a chassis issue affecting the steering system. I would advise the owner to first check the tire pressure and rim condition, and recommend regular wheel balancing and four-wheel alignment. Routine maintenance is more important than temporary fixes to prevent the problem from worsening and affecting driving safety.

After years of driving, when encountering a rightward tilt in the car body, I simply turn the steering wheel slightly to the left to straighten it out without overthinking. The key is to maintain steady speed and avoid unnecessary throttle adjustments. Rightward tilts on curves often indicate understeer, which can be corrected with minor steering adjustments. Such issues are mostly tire-related, so I make it a habit to regularly check tire pressure and wear to ensure evenness and reduce jolts. For safety, driving habits are also crucial—keeping your gaze far ahead minimizes sudden maneuvers, allowing the car to naturally regain stability in the safest and most reliable way.
