Which gear to use when turning?

[DiRebecca]

For manual transmission cars when turning, you can choose gears 2, 3, or 4 depending on the actual situation. To ensure safety, when making turns, if it's a sharp turn of less than 90 degrees, you should downshift to gear 2 or 1. For wide roads with 90-degree turns at intersections, you can use gear 2 or 3. For large turns of 120 degrees or more, you can use gear 3 or 4. Below are some driving precautions: 1. Check the rearview mirrors: When turning or changing lanes, you must use the turn signals and slow down. Always check the rearview mirrors before turning. For left turns, mainly check the left rearview mirror; for right turns, mainly check the right rearview mirror. For both left and right turns, check the interior rearview mirror. 2. Don’t stare at the front of the car: When driving on clear roads, look straight ahead about 100 meters, and avoid staring at the immediate front of the car. 3. Depress the clutch: Usually, when slowing down at speeds above 40 km/h, you don’t need to depress the clutch first; wait until the speed drops to around 20 km/h before depressing the clutch. 4. Steering: Turn the steering wheel slowly at high speeds and quickly at low speeds.
