What should I pay attention to when driving?

First, you must have a good driving attitude when driving on the road.

Driving on the road is generally stressful, which is actually very unfavorable for normal road driving. It is easy for people to make wrong judgments when they are very busy. This is why they usually see "stepping on the wrong accelerator" on the news. Therefore, novices should adjust their mentality before going on the road, and meditate on the eight points for attention of novices, so that they can drive in danger and not panic.

Second, seriously abide by traffic laws and regulations.

According to the statistics of the transportation department, more than 80% of traffic accidents are caused by one party's violation of regulations. Traffic laws and regulations are exchanged by "predecessors" with lessons and experience. Obeying traffic rules is the most important problem that novices need to pay attention to when driving, so as to minimize the probability of traffic accidents.

Third, control the steering wheel while driving.

On the road, you must master five basic principles: start, stop, turn, shift and brake. These five principles should be applied flexibly according to the actual situation. For example, turning: there is never a universal steering wheel angle that can be applied to every turning lane. After all, the width of each intersection is different, not to mention the influence of other vehicles and pedestrians. It is impossible to say that every intersection can just turn 50 degrees or 60 degrees. So at this time, we are required to observe the interior rearview mirror, adjust the steering wheel angle with the left and right rearview mirrors, and make flexible movements.

Fourth, do a good job of car maintenance before departure

Be sure to do the car maintenance on time before you go on the road. And every time you drive on the road, you must check the condition of the vehicle first. For example, the simplest thing is to turn around, not only pay attention to whether there is oil under the car, but also pay attention to the tire pressure of the four wheels. Novices should also pay attention to whether the car is abnormal, such as jitter and abnormal noise, when driving on the road. Among the precautions for beginners to drive, this one is the most easily overlooked, but it is also extremely important.

Be careful on the road at night.

Driving at night is not good, and you can't see too far away, which is more likely to cause panic among novices driving on the road. Novices must first slow down when driving on the road at night. If there is a street lamp, turn on the low beam. If there is no street lamp and there is no vehicle in front, you can turn on the high beam, but if there is a vehicle coming, switch to the low beam. Always pay attention to whether there are obstacles such as pedestrians on the roadside.

6. Pre-judgment on the road is very important.

"Look at the six roads clearly and listen to the comments from all directions." Whether you are a novice or an old hand on the road, you must do this. Only by observing the road ahead can we make an accurate judgment. Listen as well as watch. There is a blind spot in the mirror. Sometimes you can't see other cars in the rearview mirror, but you hear the rumble of two cars, so you should also pay attention. This is very important among the eight points that novices need to pay attention to on the road.

7. The distance between cars.

The following distance in driving should be estimated according to the speed at that time, and the following distance in parking is generally just right when the front and rear wheels are not visible. Whether it is a car meeting during the day or a car meeting at night, you must ensure that your vehicle is in your own lane and can't run over other people's lines. If you meet at night, you should pay more attention to turning on and off the lights and learn to use light language.

Eight, slowly reverse the car.

Back up slowly. Generally, it is half-braked to reverse the car. Under normal circumstances, the danger of reversing is not too high. After all, other people's cars are parked. As long as you observe more, you will basically not hit them.

Extended data

Taboo 1: Forgot to check the tires.

High temperature and high speed are easy to cause puncture, which will lead to out-of-control direction and accidents. There are many reasons for puncture. Pre-puncture tires must start with preparation before going out.

Tip: Check the four tires carefully before going out. It is best to go to a professional repair shop to adjust the tire pressure. In particular, don't forget to check the spare tire to see if it is in good condition. When resting, you should also check the tires and beat them with your fists to see if they are normal. If there is air leakage, it should be repaired immediately. Once there is a flat tire during driving, you can't slam on the brakes, and the car is easy to get out of control. Hold the steering wheel tightly, gradually slow down and pull over.

Taboo 2: uneven speed

Expressway should travel at high speed (within the prescribed speed limit), but if the speed is fast, novices will be nervous, the direction will deviate and accidents will easily occur. However, its speed is slow, especially under normal road conditions, which is less than 80 km/h, and it is easy to cause visual errors and rear-end collisions for incoming express trains.

Tip: Before you get on the expressway, set a speed for yourself, and also lay a "personalized speed" for future expressway driving. Novices are advised to get on the expressway for the first time and keep 90- 100 yards under normal road conditions. If it can only be less than 80 yards, it is recommended to take the ordinary high speed. In addition, try to drive in the driveway and don't occupy the overtaking lane for a long time.

Taboo 3: overtaking quietly

Overtaking on the highway is inevitable. However, many novices are inexperienced, forget to turn on the turn signal when overtaking, or start overtaking without looking at the light carefully. There are two main dangers: one is that the front car may overtake and lean out soon, and the other is that the rear car gets too close or tries to overtake and grab the road and collide.

Tip: Be sure to look before and after overtaking. Especially when overtaking a large truck, be sure to let the car in front know your intention. Turn on the turn signal first, press the horn continuously (the truck on the expressway is noisy and the driver can't hear clearly), and turn on the high beam if necessary. When you start overtaking, you must be decisive. When you return to the driveway, you should look in the rearview mirror to ensure a safe distance behind the car. Also, don't be nervous about being overtaken, mind your own direction and your own lane. Especially for large passenger cars, occasionally a rotating airflow will be formed between the two cars. At this time, hold the steering wheel tightly and keep your eyes on the front lane to let it pass quickly.
