How can we drive safely when passing through a road section with many curves?

Friends who have taken the driving license test all know that one of the subjects in subject two is curved driving, which requires that once you fail the test, you cannot take the test. Turning, a basic driving skill, can often confuse newbies just getting on the road. If you want to pass the curve quickly and do not want to generate too much centrifugal force when turning, you must make full use of the width of the road surface and turn in a larger arc, tending to a straight line.

Safe driving skills on curves are the key to controlling speed!

Turning is more than just turning the steering wheel. Here are some Cha Ge situations to teach you how to turn.

Case 1: Haze and sandstorm weather

When driving in this kind of weather, you must turn on the low beam lights and anti-fog lights, and honk the horn frequently to attract pedestrians as much as possible and vehicle attention. Slow down, be aware of everything, and be ready to stop at any moment.

Case 2: High-speed turning skills

On the highway above, many traffic accidents occur when turning.

Uphill Curve

On a sloped curve, you should release the accelerator before entering the curve, so that the vehicle can lean on the outside of the curve and enter the curve at a faster speed. road, downshift through first or second gear, then select a route and correct direction. Tap the accelerator lightly at the same time. After passing the top of the curve, it will switch back to the outside of the curve and increase the accelerator at the same time. Finally, it will quickly exit the curve by leaning on the outside of the curve.

[Downhill Curve]

When going down a slope curve, slow down significantly, then lean on the outside of the curve to enter the curve at a slower speed, and then release the brakes , select the route, correct the direction; after passing the top of the curve, switch back to the outside of the curve, tap the accelerator at the same time, and finally drive out of the curve quickly by leaning on the outside of the curve. In this process, you should also choose a turning route that starts with the outside and then the inside with the outside.

[Gentle slopes and wide roads]

In this case, you should take a shortcut and turn. In other words, try to drive on the inside when entering a curve, and try to drive on the outside when exiting a curve. This changes the curvature of the car, delays the camber angle when turning, effectively reduces centrifugal force, and allows for easy cornering without significant deceleration. This method often appears in outdoor racing competitions. A series of high-speed racing cars are taking shortcuts to turn.

When turning left, the turn signal should be issued in advance to remind the car behind. When turning, the direction should be slightly adjusted according to the actual situation. When turning, you should be as close to the center of the road as possible to provide safe driving space for vehicles following and turning right.

If you need to turn right, you need to signal before turning and confirm that you have entered the right-turn lane in advance. If you need to turn right at the front fork and the vehicle is driving in the left lane, you should first signal for a right turn and check the rearview mirror repeatedly to ensure a safe distance from the vehicle behind you before changing lanes to the right. In addition, when you encounter a fork at high speed, you need to turn, so you must control the speed through the dashboard.

Case 3: Urban Roads and Communities

Presumably for some experienced drivers, it is easier to negotiate urban road curves, while many novice drivers are still quite anxious. No matter what kind of curve, we must follow one principle: slow down, slow down, slow down. The steering wheel should match the speed of the vehicle and the direction should not be too sharp. Make the turn in time and get back in the right direction in time.

When turning in the community, whether it is the community gate or the parking lot gate, the driver should slow down and sound the horn in advance to alert pedestrians or other vehicles, and turn on the turn signal 50-100 meters in advance to indicate the turning direction. When turning, pay attention to the front, rear and inside to avoid collision with sudden pedestrians or non-motor vehicles.

Scene 4: Mountain Bend

Although this situation is rare, it can be very useful for some road trip enthusiasts.

Some mountain roads are two-way lanes. Before turning, Qin Ying honked the horn and chose a place with solid road foundation and wide road surface to meet at any time. If you find the other party's arrival signal at the front of the curve but the vehicles have not yet met, you should choose a suitable location in advance to offer courtesy. Once you can see the exit, change lanes and correct direction.
