How can a novice driver overtake safely when driving a manual gear?

Whether it is an old driver or a novice driver, overtaking is inevitable once driving on the road. Many safety accidents in life occur when overtaking, so overtaking involves many technologies. How can novice drivers overtake safely?

To overtake, you must first turn left, which is the most basic. Turn signals are used to remind the car in front of you of the route you want to take. I think many novice drivers rarely look at the road behind them through the left and right mirrors and rearview mirrors when driving, so it is particularly important to turn on the turn signal. You must make sure that the car in the left lane has enough safe distance to overtake.

Now let's talk about how to overtake correctly under different road conditions. We drive on the road, and the road conditions are very complicated, including narrow rural roads, provincial roads and expressways.

Rural roads do not have overtaking conditions and can only overtake motorcycles or tricycles. If you want to overtake on a country road, just honk your horn to remind the car ahead. Most drivers know that motorcycles are a little easier to overtake. If it is a tricycle, you must overtake in a wider place, and never overtake by force.

A little wider than the country road is the country road, which is generally about five meters wide. This width has overtaking conditions. If you want to overtake, you can hit the left turn signal or honk your horn to remind the car ahead. The speed of this road is generally around 40, so you don't need to shift gears, just refuel. There are many trucks on rural roads, especially the heavy trucks that pull bricks, which are particularly difficult to climb. If you are overweight, you must honk your horn to remind you. If you drive, you just need to turn around. In this case, honking the horn is more effective than hitting the turn signal.

Better than rural roads are county roads, provincial roads and national roads, many of which are two-way and two-lane. Provincial and national highways generally have non-motor vehicle lanes with solid lines in the middle. You have to use the opposite lane to overtake, so overtaking in this situation is the most dangerous. You must make sure that there are no cars in the other lane, because there are many bends in county roads and provincial roads, so it is dangerous not to overtake in the bends. Relatively speaking, overtaking on the highway is relatively easy, but overtaking on the highway is fast and dangerous, especially for super-large trucks.

Now let's talk about the gear operation when overtaking. I wonder if there is anyone like me. When I first took my driver's license test, I thought that the higher the gear, the faster the speed. Overtaking means the faster the speed, so I have to use high gear. Of course, this is actually wrong.

This also depends on the situation. If you are driving in second or third gear, you don't need to change gears when overtaking, just increase the throttle and you can overtake completely. If you are driving in the fourth gear and the speed is about 50 yards, you can choose to step on the accelerator when overtaking. Of course, you can also go down to third gear to refuel and overtake. The gear is low in torque and strong in speed sprint, so overtaking is fast, avoiding long-distance parallel between two cars.

If overtaking is on a climbing road, it is generally best to downshift and increase the throttle. Overtaking without downshifting will be very fleshy. Climbing is slower than flat ground, so you have to overtake. If the slope is large, even if the throttle is fully open, the car will not have strong power, so it needs to be downshifted and speeded up.

Remember the two most important points, never overtake in a corner, never overtake in a corner, never overtake from the right, never overtake from the right.
