How to shift gears

36 tricks that novices must learn when driving on the road

Count 1: Adjust driving posture.

Correct driving posture is very important for safe driving, which can not only eliminate the fatigue of long-term driving and ensure a good driving vision, but also make the driving action more accurate, rapid and reasonable. Driving posture is mainly related to steering wheel and seat. After sitting in the driver's seat, first of all, sit deeply in the back of the chair and let your waist and shoulders lean against the back of the chair. First, feel whether the distance between the front and back of the seat and the backrest angle are appropriate, then stretch your arms forward and naturally hold both sides of the steering wheel. At this time, the wrist must be able to bend freely and move freely. Legs should have some room for movement, and it is easy to step on the clutch pedal, brake pedal or accelerator with your feet, so you don't have to lean forward. The position is basically suitable at this time. If it is not suitable, you can slide the seat back and forth or adjust the tilt angle of the chair back to meet the above requirements.

Don't be too nervous when driving. Many novices often feel backache after going on the road for the first time, mainly because they are sitting in the wrong position and are too nervous, so they are stiff all over, and it is inevitable to compete with the car. Don't always keep a posture when driving, adjust the sitting posture appropriately to eliminate fatigue.

It should be emphasized that after adjusting the driving posture, you must fasten your seat belt to avoid the tension and unsafe factors caused by suddenly remembering not to wear your seat belt during driving.

Number 2: Easy to turn the steering wheel.

After the driving posture is adjusted, the next step is to hold and operate the steering wheel. The best position to hold the steering wheel is to bend your elbows slightly at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock (that is, at the horizontal sides) when holding the steering wheel with both hands, because this will give your arms enough activity area to operate the steering wheel quickly. Don't hold the steering wheel tightly, but hold the outer edge gently. Many novices always hold the steering wheel tightly, which leads to a lot of sweating on their hands and affects the accuracy of their movements. Moreover, it is easy to hit the steering wheel abnormally when shifting gears, which has buried hidden dangers.

The operation of the steering wheel has different degrees of steering function according to the vehicle speed. The higher the vehicle speed, the smaller the turning range of the steering wheel. When turning, you should operate with both hands, pushing the relay steering wheel with one hand and pulling it with the other.

In addition, the steering wheel has the function of self-righting. When it rotates quickly, you can loosen your palm to make the steering wheel self-righting, but you are not allowed to rotate by yourself. You still need to hold the steering wheel with both hands to keep it in a controllable state at any time.

Some novices will put their hands into the inside of the steering wheel when the car turns around or makes a big turn. This is what the old saying goes. This seems to be labor-saving, but in case of emergency, the hand can not be withdrawn in time for first aid; The front wheel suddenly changes direction, and it is easy to hurt your arm. Beginners should get rid of this bad habit.

Third: be familiar with gears.

Most novice drivers (such as manual gears) drive differently from those when learning to drive, so they are not familiar with gears. If you don't take the time to get familiar with the gear, the direct consequence is that you don't know which gear you are in when driving, and you often look down at the gear lever, which is easy to cause traffic accidents because of distraction. Especially when encountering complex road conditions, it is easy to turn off the engine because of nervousness, so be sure to be familiar with the gear before going on the road for the first time.

Usually, the position assignment of the gear will be clearly printed on the handle of the gear lever. When you get on an unfamiliar car, getting familiar with different gears is the first step. You can get familiar with gears through the following steps.

1. Be familiar with the gear if the car is not in place.

At this time, first look at the gear bitmap above the gear lever handle, step the clutch pedal to the bottom to shift gears, and pay attention to whether there is an inverted lock. After getting familiar with the gear position, take your eyes off the gear lever and use the gear shifting mode to get familiar with the gear position during normal driving.

Note: If you can't shift gears in place, you can step on the clutch pedal once and then step on the clutch pedal to shift gears. Generally, you will shift gears smoothly.

2. Be familiar with the equipment when traveling

When driving in an open area or on a road with less traffic, you should be familiar with the gear when driving. At this time, we should insist on shifting gears without looking at the shift lever, and at the same time, we should add gears in order when shifting gears, and pay attention to practicing oil distribution and cooperation.

Precautions: Remember to put the gear lever in neutral when landing, and pay attention to avoid pedestrians, non-motor vehicles and sudden motor vehicles when driving.

Fourth, skilled oil separation and coordination.

When driving a manual transmission vehicle, the best oil distribution can not only make the vehicle start smoothly and output power stably, but also save fuel and prolong the service life of the clutch. This skill is often the most difficult for beginners to master, and flameout and body shake often occur when starting. In addition, when shifting gears, the clutch is too loose, which will easily lead to the train stopping, which will not only destroy the car, but also make the driving feel very uncomfortable. Some novices get into the habit of stepping on the clutch pedal because they are not skilled in clutch operation, which leads to the clutch being in a semi-clutch state for a long time and accelerates the damage of the clutch.

Correct oil separation and matching should be adjusted according to vehicle speed. In the initial stage, put in neutral, step on the clutch pedal after landing, put the shift lever into 1 gear, slowly release the clutch, and start the car with the accelerator. When stepping on the clutch pedal, be sure to step to the end. Feel the shaking and moving trend of the car body when slowly releasing the clutch pedal. When the vehicle is slightly shaking and moving, slowly refuel and continue to slowly release the clutch until it is completely released, so that the vehicle can start smoothly.

It is also important for the vehicle to shift gears while driving. With the increase of vehicle speed, the deoiling process is gradually shortened, that is, the release speed of clutch pedal is accelerated. In order to ensure the smooth shifting process, the throttle should be matched reasonably, and never refuel. The ideal state is that when shifting gears, the vehicle runs smoothly, the speed increases gradually, and there is no obvious instantaneous deceleration and acceleration. On the contrary, when decelerating and downshifting, you should brake properly first, and then step on the clutch pedal to shift gears when the speed is appropriate.

Fifth: Find the right shift timing.

Many novices don't know when to shift gears, and there are often low gears and high speeds. The correct shift should be after automatic start. With the increase of engine speed and different vehicle speeds, shift into the corresponding gear.

Under normal circumstances, when the engine speed increases to a certain extent, the working noise of the engine will increase, so it is necessary to upshift, and the shift timing is generally between 2 500 and 3 000 r/min (engines with different performance will be different, please read the user manual before use). If a novice doesn't learn to shift gears according to the change of engine sound, he can observe the tachometer and feel the change of engine sound at the best shift speed while ensuring safety. The principle of deceleration shift is the same, but it should be noted that when the vehicle speed is too fast, it is necessary to reduce the vehicle speed to the corresponding range before shifting.

Some drivers are used to shifting gears according to their speed, but this method is not suitable for novices because their sense of speed has not been established. Novices are advised to shift gears according to engine speed. But everyone should still know the gears corresponding to different speed stages. Take a vehicle with a 5-speed manual transmission as an example. Under normal circumstances, after starting, when the vehicle speed is lower than 20km/h, you should choose the second gear, when the vehicle speed is 20 ~ 60km/h, you should choose the third gear, when the vehicle speed is 60km/h, if the vehicle speed exceeds 80km/h, you can shift into the fifth gear. ..

Sixth: Learn to pay attention to six ways.

The driver has a limited view when sitting in the car. At ordinary times, he can only see the situation ahead with the naked eye. For left, right and rear situations, he can only use the inner rearview mirror and two outer rearview mirrors. Some driving actions, such as turning, reversing, merging and overtaking, must be done safely with the help of rearview mirrors. Therefore, novices must first learn to observe the road conditions through the rearview mirror, and then realize "six roads at a time". Especially for some drivers who drive trucks while learning to drive, it is particularly important to learn to observe road conditions with rearview mirrors. In the actual driving process, novices often stare at the front and ignore the five directions of left, right, back, up and down. So how can we "see six ways"?

When the vehicle is driving in the middle of the lane and the road conditions are not very complicated, force yourself to move your eyes out of the front, observe the three rearview mirrors, the road surface and the front upper part of the vehicle with the remaining eyes, and keep your central vision scanning the wide road conditions-front, back, left, right, up and down. Look forward as much as possible; Observe the rear middle, left and right rearview mirrors, and see the following distance and speed of all the rear lanes; Observing from the left side to the right side of the road, including oncoming cars, parking on the left and right sides of the road, pedestrians and vehicles to be transferred out at the intersection; Look up at street signs and signal lights; Look down at road signs and obstacles.

In the process of expanding the field of vision, the speed should not be too fast, and the observation range should be gradually expanded under the condition of ensuring safety.

It is dangerous to stare at an object for a long time while driving on the road. So exercise your eye movements, don't focus too much on a car (such as the car in front) or other things, and learn to glance at it. In addition, before merging or overtaking, always look in the mirror to avoid the influence of blind spots and keep abreast of the situation behind the car.

Seventh: Practice parking and parking.

The biggest headache for novices is parking. Someone joked: don't look at many novices driving like a decent car on the road, they will be exposed as soon as they stop. Many novices have "parking phobia". Because they don't park often, they have less opportunities to exercise and their parking skills are slow to improve. Therefore, novice parking accidents often occur, further increasing the fear of parking. There is only one way for us to do it, that is, practice and practice various parking methods under the guidance of "experts".

When practicing, we should focus on two kinds of parking spaces that novices think are difficult. One is that there are cars in front and behind, and there are parking spaces in the middle; The other is that there are cars on the left and right with parking spaces in the middle.

The focus of the first parking space is to pour in. You can learn from the method of "moving the garage" learned in driving school, so that the rear of the car can be put in place smoothly.

There are two ways to park the second parking space, one is to drive forward and the other is to pour in. It is relatively simple to drive forward, and pay attention to the distance from the left and right cars so as not to hinder the left and right cars from opening the door. When dumping, you can learn from the methods of "pasting the library" and "dumping the library" in driving school.

Number 8: Verify the following distances repeatedly.

Novices often can't judge the distance from the vehicle in front, so they are often far away from the vehicle in front, which affects the traffic speed and creates conditions for other vehicles to merge in front, causing hidden dangers. There are also some bold novices who are close to the car, but their ability to deal with emergencies is very poor. Once the front car slows down or stops a little faster, it is easy to rear-end. So how to keep a proper distance when following the car?

The distance from the car is different under different road conditions and different speed. A general principle is that the front and rear cars must keep a safe distance. That is, when the preceding vehicle slows down or brakes, there is enough safe distance between the two vehicles, so that the driver of the following vehicle has enough time to react and take braking measures. At the same time, keeping a limited following distance can effectively prevent vehicles in other lanes from merging into their own front at will. Beginners had better practice repeatedly in different road conditions. When practicing, choose a multi-lane road in the same direction. When driving, you can refer to the following distance of the vehicle in the next lane and verify it yourself. However, the practice process should be gradual, and the distance with the car should be from large to small until it is reasonable and safe.

Number 9: Face passing vehicles easily.

In the process of driving, the phase difference between upper driving and lower driving is called meeting. Many novices are afraid of overtaking, especially on narrow roads. Beginners tend to feel nervous. After a hurry, it will turn off the engine, stop, avoid, and even cause two cars to scrape and collide, or touch non-motor vehicles, pedestrians and roadside isolation facilities. In order to avoid these situations, novices should first overcome their nervousness and fear psychologically and face the passing of cars easily.

Be prepared to pick up the car correctly in advance to avoid psychological panic and panic in operation. To this end, before the meeting, we should take a look at two calculations and three slowness: at first glance, we should look at the model, speed and load of oncoming cars, the width and firmness of the road ahead, pedestrians and vehicles on the roadside, parking and obstacles on the roadside, etc. Second, through observation and comparison, estimate the approximate position and road occupation of the two cars, and leave a suitable lateral safety interval; Third, slow down, that is, slow down when the car meets the situation, and the conditions are not good when approaching the intersection. More importantly, it is necessary to control the speed, not blindly meet each other, and stop when necessary to achieve the goal of smooth meeting between the two cars.

Also pay attention to the relevant provisions of concessions, and concessions should be timely and reasonable. At night, on the road without street lights or poor lighting, turn off the high beam and switch to the low beam when passing by.

Count 10: Explore the function and opportunity of parallel operation.

Many traffic accidents are caused by drivers' careless merging. For novices, merging is a terrible thing: endless cars, horns and flashing lights from time to time, and the mocking eyes of other drivers will make novices feel inexplicable fear. Therefore, starting from reality, novices should try to drive honestly without fully mastering the basic skills of observing the rear road conditions and following the car through the rearview mirror, and don't merge unless absolutely necessary. When conditions are ripe, you will find that the merger is actually very simple.

The basic principle of parallel line is not to affect the normal running of other cars. Normal cars have no obligation and responsibility to let the parallel vehicles go first, so don't force the parallel. When merging, we must seize the opportunity and merge cleanly. Prepare for the merger in advance, and be sure to see the situation before and after the merger. Focus on observing the driving situation of the cars to be merged, such as the speed of the cars in the lane, whether there is congestion or deceleration ahead, whether there is enough distance between the two cars for you to merge, and know whether there is a car in the blind area of your rearview mirror. When merging, turn on the turn signal first, then accelerate into the lane to be merged, turn back to the steering wheel after entering the lane completely, and turn back to the turn signal.

Pay attention to public morality when merging, and don't force merging, which will cause the rear car to slow down and avoid. Don't brake just after the merger. These bad habits can easily arouse the antipathy of others.

Count 1 1: slow reversing.

Beginners tend to make the mistake of not looking at the front and not looking at the back, so they often scratch when reversing.

It is more difficult to reverse than to move forward, mainly because the line of sight is limited and it is not easy to see the road and obstacles behind the car. In addition, when reversing, the rear wheel becomes the leader and the front wheel becomes the heel, which makes the subjective feeling different and changes the position of steering control. Therefore, the operation when reversing will feel less smooth, convenient, flexible and accurate than when moving forward. Novices must remember one word when reversing-slow.

Before reversing, you should observe the rear of the car and the left and right sides of the car by observing the rearview mirror and turning your head through the rear windshield, and slowly reverse the car according to the observed situation, the outline of the car, the width and height of loading.

When reversing, pay attention to whether there are cars and pedestrians coming before and after, send out reversing signals and sound the horn to warn other cars and pedestrians. Then, with the vehicle body stopped, put the shift lever into reverse gear. When reversing, step on the accelerator steadily, and the speed should not exceed 5 km/h, so as to prevent flameout or danger caused by reversing too hard. At the same time, you should observe the progress in real time through the rear windshield and rearview mirror, pay attention to correct the direction, and prevent the car from scratching before and after.

Count 12: Learn to observe traffic signs.

Although novices have studied traffic laws, they are most likely to violate traffic signs because they have no personal feelings about traffic signs. At the same time, it is easy to go the wrong way because you don't know the traffic signs or find them in time. These situations are inevitable. As the saying goes, once you learn a lesson, you will master it if you see more.

In order to facilitate the observation of traffic signs, novices should pay attention to the signs set on the roadside and on the road when driving, have a far and high vision, and understand the meaning of traffic signs before driving.

In addition, when approaching the intersection, there will be guiding signs in the driveway, and novices will often ignore the guiding traffic signs on the road because they keep an eye on the front, leading to violations or going the wrong way. Therefore, when driving to the front of the intersection, you should slow down in advance, pay attention to the traffic signs on the road surface and the intersection ahead, and choose your own driving route correctly.

Count 13: remember the road by heart.

Many novices have a headache when they are familiar with the road, especially when they encounter complicated roads such as overpasses and intersections. Many people don't know how to get there at all, even if they walk a few times, they can't remember the way. Novices are anxious to sit in the driving position because they are not skilled in driving, let alone remember the road. According to common sense, it is a basic condition for a qualified driver to remember the road when driving. It is not difficult to remember the road while driving. Anyone can remember the road clearly as long as he is careful.

When driving on the road, drivers should pay more attention to the traffic signs on the roadside while observing the road conditions. There are traffic warning signs near some intersections and overpasses, so keep them in mind consciously. If you are afraid of not remembering, you can write it down on paper. Once you pass this road again, you will have a feeling of deja vu. When your fellow passengers show you the way, you should also pay more attention, don't just follow others' instructions mechanically.

Meter 14: master pedestrian dynamics

Pedestrians of different ages will have different dynamics on the road. Novices should learn to treat them differently and change their driving modes in time according to different pedestrians, which is very helpful for safe driving.

Children's awareness of self-protection is relatively poor, with the characteristics of changeable walking routes and uncertain stop. Therefore, if you meet children while driving on the road, you must slow down and never get in the way with them. Young people are energetic, quick-thinking, and dare to take risks. They dare to cross the road when vehicles approach, or take the driveway instead of the sidewalk, or even climb over the road barrier. In view of this characteristic of young people, drivers should try to leave them space and room. The elderly are generally slow to move and have poor eyesight and hearing. When they cross the road, they often can't see the coming car or judge the speed correctly. Some old people even just bow their heads and don't look at passing cars at all. So drive as far away from the old people as possible on the road, and don't honk your horn to avoid scaring the old people.

Some cyclists often change their driving routes and drill whenever they have time, which is not conducive to driving safety. Therefore, you should keep a certain distance from them when driving on the road to prevent cyclists from suddenly falling down and being in danger.

Meter 15: Observe complex road conditions.

When driving on the road, people often disobey the traffic rules and cross the road at will, which is especially common in cities. If the driver does not handle this situation properly, it is easy to cause traffic accidents. In the downtown area or intersection of the city, especially in the section where the motor vehicle lane and the non-motor vehicle lane are not clearly divided, it is very common for pedestrians and motor vehicles to pass by force. According to the new "Road Traffic Safety Law", motor vehicles should take the initiative to give way to pedestrians and non-motor vehicles on the road sections without clear traffic signal signs. Therefore, novices should learn to avoid pedestrians, and must not drive impulsively and in anger.

At some intersections, the driver's sight will be affected by some buildings or trees. At this time, the vehicle should be driven slowly and observed to prevent pedestrians or other vehicles from suddenly jumping out of the intersection.

Count 16: Learn to recognize the wrong driving posture.

Some novices are eager to learn and admire the ease with which old drivers drive. Other drivers will observe carefully and learn driving posture and habits when driving. However, some drivers' driving postures and habits are incorrect. For example, many people are used to holding the steering wheel with their left hand and the gear lever with their right hand, which is convenient and unique to operate, but it is wrong to do so. This will not only affect the speed of response to emergencies, but also give the gear lever a downward pressure when the right hand holds it. Doing so for a long time will aggravate the wear of the gear shifting mechanism and affect its life.

Count 17: Avoid obstacles correctly.

When a novice meets an obstacle while driving on the road, he can't always handle it correctly. For example, some drivers drive too fast and don't observe the road conditions. When they see obstacles, they are very close, so they can only rush over, which will cause certain damage to the chassis and tires of the car. Some drivers are too close to the car in front of them to observe the road conditions in front of them. When the front car safely avoids obstacles or the front car encounters an emergency, they have no time to take correct actions, so they can only turn or brake urgently, which will cause the nearby cars to turn and brake urgently and easily lead to a series of traffic accidents. The main reason is that the observation of road conditions is not enough. Therefore, when driving, you should always observe the road conditions, keep your eyes far away, slow down in advance when you find obstacles, observe the driving situation of vehicles in the left, right and rear directions at the same time, and avoid obstacles in time.

Count 18: Drive carefully at night.

Many drivers like to drive at night. They think it is easier to drive at night because there are few cars and pedestrians on the road. However, driving at night also has many unfavorable factors, among which insufficient light, unclear target and difficulty in distinguishing are a very unfavorable factor. Although there are headlights, the lights of the opposite car often make people unable to open their eyes; In addition, the headlights of the car behind you will also cause glare on your rearview mirror. As novices, we should get into the good habit of changing the lights into low beam lights when passing, which not only improves the sight of the opposite driver, but also protects our own safety.

Count 19: Practice the basic skills of starting on a ramp.

It is common to start parking on the congested roads in the city, especially when many cars are waiting in line to get on the overpass. Some overpasses have steep slopes, so it is really difficult to move at this time if you don't practice the basic skills of starting on the slope. Turn off the engine as soon as you start, and the car behind you honks hard. Can you come down and push the car away? You don't want this embarrassing situation to happen to you, so you should practice more and practice the basic skills of starting on a slope.

Beginners must use the parking brake (hand brake) when starting on the slope where the road starts, which can prevent the car from slipping. Once you are proficient in oil distribution, you can use skilled oil distribution to climb up quickly on some slopes with small slopes.

No.20: Adapt to various modes.

When I say adapt to different models, I don't mean that you can only drive cars, but I ask you to drive trucks. This is unacceptable. But you can take advantage of the appropriate opportunity to familiarize yourself with the models that your driver's license allows you to drive. For example, you can't just drive Santana or Jetta. Otherwise, if you need to drive a Jetta, you are always embarrassed to say that you can't drive it! But when trying other models, it is best to have a driver who is familiar with this model to help you familiarize yourself with the use of gears and various functions. Don't be shy to ask others. Everyone has this process, and everyone can understand it.

Count 2 1: Slow down smoothly when parking is required.

When driving on the road, if you see a car "nod" a lot when braking, then the driver of this car is probably a novice. Poor speed control when parking is a common problem for beginners, which always makes people feel like taking a boat when sitting in the car. In order to avoid emergency braking or excessive braking force, novices should pre-brake before reaching the parking destination and slow down the speed by "point braking". When stepping on the brake pedal, the force should be moderate, not too hard, and the speed will drop too fast.

The 22nd measure: Grasp the braking distance.

The braking distance is different on different roads. When driving on the road, we should comprehensively grasp the moment of applying braking force and the strength of stepping on the brake pedal according to factors such as speed, road conditions and climatic conditions. For beginners, it is normal to master the braking distance badly, and it takes time and mileage to master it properly.

In practice, to grasp the word "slow", we can use the method of braking in advance and applying force slowly, and constantly explore the best match between braking time and braking force.

Number 23: Prevent flameout due to improper operation.

The flameout is a common problem for beginners to drive. I believe that many people have encountered such a situation, starting the flameout when the red light turns green, starting the flameout when following the car, not shifting gears in time, stalling when the braking range is too large, and stalling when the steering angle is too large. Although there are various situations of flameout, it is mainly caused by improper matching of clutch, accelerator, brake and gear, which requires novices to be familiar with the vehicle they are driving as soon as possible, master the weight of accelerator pedal and the length of clutch free stroke, and make adjustments if the pedal position is not suitable.

The 24th trick: Treat the merging of other cars reasonably.

When driving in multiple lanes, the parallel roads between vehicles are very frequent. Keep a cool head when other cars try to merge in front of their own cars. If you drive faster, you should slow down appropriately to let other cars merge into your own lane, and you must not speed up parking or deliberately push them out of the lane. For the car that suddenly merges in front of you without turning on the turn signal, you should try to avoid it and don't be impatient, otherwise it will affect your driving safety.

25th meter: Accurately judge the distance of the vehicles behind.

For the judgment of the distance and position of the vehicle in front, the driver can know fairly well by direct observation, but for the judgment of the distance and position of the vehicle behind, it is often difficult for novices to grasp, which often leads to problems when overtaking and merging. If we want to have an accurate judgment on how far the rear vehicle is from us, we should not only use the rearview mirror of the vehicle, but also observe whether there is a vehicle in the blind area from the side if necessary, but never look back when the vehicle is moving forward.

Novices should be familiar with the difference between the image in the rearview mirror and the actual distance. When practicing, they can do it in the parking lot first. After parking, they can observe the distance behind the car through the rearview mirror, and then get off to verify the actual distance, so as to know fairly well. When driving on the road, adjust the distance between cars according to the speed of your own car and the car behind you.

Question 26: Driving skills under different road conditions

In all kinds of road conditions, first of all, it is necessary to ensure driving safety, and secondly, it is necessary to master driving skills according to different road conditions. For general urban roads, it is necessary to choose a good route and control the speed; On the congested road, it is necessary to ensure a safe distance from the front car and the rear car, and at the same time to prevent those vehicles that "grab the road" from colliding with their own vehicles; On the highway, you should not be too slow, do not occupy the overtaking lane for a long time, and stay away from large vehicles; On urban expressways, special attention should be paid to safety when overtaking in parallel; When driving on mountain roads, you should choose low gear and master the steering wheel correctly; On the road of continuous turning, you should turn as close as possible to the center of the inner diameter of the curve, so that there is a large safe turning space whether you need to avoid the opposite car or prevent it from being thrown out of the car by turning centrifugal force; When turning sharply, make good use of speakers and headlights to remind the opposite vehicles to be vigilant; In addition, we should learn driving skills in different weather conditions such as rainy, snowy and foggy days.

In short, under different road conditions, the key is to quickly adapt to the environment, grasp the relationship between gear and speed, and be good at using lights, brakes and rearview mirrors.

No.27: Overtake in time

Novices generally dare not overtake easily on the road. Different road sections and different road conditions have different driving modes. If there are no special circumstances, try to overtake from the left. When overtaking, first observe the left front, and then observe the left rearview mirror and the dead angle (blind area) of the left rearview mirror. After confirming safety, turn on the left turn signal and gradually cut into the left lane of the vehicle ahead. When approaching the left rear of the vehicle in front, you can whistle to remind the vehicle in front (don't whistle in urban areas where whistling is prohibited). After overtaking, the turn signal is reset. If you overtake at night, remind each other by changing the high beam. After overtaking, it is decided whether to continue driving along the current lane or merge into the original right lane according to the road conditions ahead (if overtaking on the expressway, you must return to the right lane). If you want to return to the right lane, you must keep a certain distance from the overtaken, and then turn on the right turn signal to switch to the right lane.

No.28: Face the overpass easily.

There are more and more overpasses on the roads in many cities. Taking Beijing as an example, a large number of overpasses with different shapes often make some drivers just on the road feel at a loss. Driving on the overpass is a headache for them. Different overpasses have different ways of turning left, right, straight and turning around. There are three or four ways to turn left and take the same ring road. If you don't see the overpass sign clearly during driving, or take the wrong driving route, you will often take many wrong lanes and even get lost. The simplest and quickest way to drive correctly on the overpass is to get familiar with the performance characteristics of the overpass through traffic maps and online search. In addition, it is best to drive slowly on the overpass, pay attention to every sign, and find out the driving route and direction.

29th: Calm down and honk the horn.

Many novices will stick warning slogans on the windshield of their cars when they go on the road, accompanied by humorous sentences such as "Be careful, don't kiss me" and "salute to all old drivers" to show their love for their cars. To a great extent, this can ensure that when vehicles affect the driving of other vehicles, they can be tolerated and understood by others. But sometimes when the engine is turned off, the start is slow or the driving is not good, impatient people will honk their horns in the back. If the horn rings after listening to the car, you will be very anxious, and there will often be poor coordination of oil distribution, gear shifting mistakes or multiple flameouts. The more I want to drive a good car, the worse I drive it. If a novice is driving normally in a non-fast lane, or overtaking and merging normally, it is best to "turn a deaf ear" and deal with it calmly to avoid being in a hurry and making mistakes. If it does significantly affect the speed of traffic, you can speed up while ensuring safety.

Item 30: Handling of traffic accidents

If an accident occurs during driving, you should try to stay calm and take corresponding measures to avoid or reduce injuries. In case of skidding on the slope, stay awake, relax the accelerator pedal, quickly press the brake and tighten the parking brake, and then climb up after it is stable. After the vehicle passes through the road with deep water or muddy water, it will slip, which will cause the car body to lose control and deviate from the direction, and the car body will be distorted due to uneven force on the front and rear wheels. At this time, you should lift the brake pedal, hold the steering wheel tightly, control the state of the car with a little throttle, and then relax the throttle to slow down, so as to completely control the balance of the car. When the vehicle's underwater braking fails, the brake pedal should be lightly stepped frequently to slow down according to the slight braking force, and at the same time, the heat generated by braking will bake the brake shoes to facilitate the recovery of braking performance; In an emergency, use the parking brake to stop. When the brakes fail on a long downhill slope, you should immediately use the parking brake to stop.
