When the rear of the car is skewed to the right in the rearview mirror, which way should the steering wheel be turned?

When reversing, if the rear of the car is skewed to the right, the steering wheel should be turned to the left. A right-skewed rear indicates excessive right steering, and the steering wheel should be adjusted promptly. At this point, observe the car body from the left rearview mirror. If the car body is not parallel to the roadside line, and the distance from the rear to the roadside line is longer than that from the front, the gap on the left side of the rear is larger than on the right. According to the reversing mantra "steer towards the side with the larger rear gap," you should turn the steering wheel to the left to correct the car's position. Master the basic technique: Simply put, before reversing, stay calm, observe the surroundings, and decide whether the rear should go left or right. Turning the steering wheel to the left makes the rear go left, and turning it to the right makes the rear go right. The appropriate degree of steering should be determined by finding a reference point in the rearview mirror. Observe carefully: Overcome any fear of difficulty. Don’t think this is an insurmountable problem. Stay calm, think carefully, observe and analyze correctly, and practice more. Consider your actions before moving the car. Habit: Avoid the habit of turning the steering wheel while the car is stationary, as this can easily damage the vehicle and is also cumbersome. If multiple adjustments are needed, remember to turn the wheel in the opposite direction just before the car comes to a complete stop during each adjustment. Turn the wheel as much as possible to reduce the effort needed for the next adjustment.
