Braking in Emergencies
Use your anti-lock braking system when you need to.
With anti-lock, you can steer and brake at the same
time.
In
many emergencies, steering can help you more
than even the very best braking.
Steering
Power Steering
If
you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops
or
the system is not functioning, you can steer but
it will take much more effort.
Steering Tips
Driving
on
Curves
It’s important
to
take curves at a reasonable speed.
A lot of the “driver lost control” accidents~mentioned on
the news happen on curves. Here’s why:
Experienced driver or beginner, each of us is subject to
the same laws
of
physics when driving on curves. The
traction of the tires against the road surface makes it
possible for the vehicle
to
change
its
path when you turn
the front wheels.
If
there’s no traction, inertia will keep
the vehicle going in the same direction.
If
you’ve ever
tried to steer a vehicle on wet
ice,
you’ll understand this.
