Which Way to Turn the Steering Wheel When the Car Drifts?

[VanAlexandra]

Normally, when the car drifts to one side, you should turn the steering wheel in the opposite direction. This helps the car maintain a straight line. Below are some driving techniques: Gear Shifting Techniques: Do not wait until the RPM is too low and the car has almost no power before downshifting, as this increases the engine load. To maintain sufficient driving force and speed while reducing engine burden, early downshifting is necessary, especially when going uphill, driving at low speeds, or carrying heavy loads. Throttle Control: This is essentially a practice of foot sensitivity. When parked in neutral, try pressing the throttle while keeping the RPM steady at a certain level. Once mastered, you can practice this while driving, as the first gear has a high speed ratio (similar to a long lever arm), making the throttle highly sensitive and harder to control. Timing for Gear Shifting: Gear shifting is a manual action to change the gear ratio of the transmission, adapting to different road conditions and driving performance. Downshifting is suitable for overtaking or downhill driving (engine braking), while upshifting is ideal for high-speed driving, reducing RPM, and easing the engine load.
