6 rules to remember when driving at high speed
(Baonghean.vn) - Not everyone knows how to drive safely at high speeds. Remembering the basic rules below will help you confidently accelerate when driving a car.
1. Keep your hands at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions.
 |
| Experienced drivers must know this rule when holding the steering wheel, but not everyone seriously applies it. In fact, keeping your hands in the right position will help you steer well and minimize collisions when driving at high speed. |
2. Adjust the seat accurately and comfortably
 |
| Only when you are in a stable sitting position can you concentrate on driving the car in the best way. Note that if you sit too far away, your feet will not be able to fully apply the brakes, so adjust so that your wrists are above the steering wheel and sit at a suitable height for a clear view. At this point, you will be completely confident in controlling the speed on all roads. |
3. Expand your horizons
 |
| Don't just look at the taillights of the car in front or focus on the corner, observe the front, back and surroundings to handle unexpected situations. |
4. Do not let the car drift
 |
| Drifting is extremely dangerous when driving at high speed. You should only accelerate or decelerate so that the vehicle does not lose balance and risk skidding at any time. |
5. Don't play music too loud
 |
| According to a study by a Canadian university, playing music at 95 decibels will reduce the driver's reaction time by 20%. In addition, the sound will drown out the engine noise, making it difficult for you to feel the exact speed when traveling. |
6. Drive fast at the right place, at the right time
 |
| Driving at high speed often makes drivers who are not professional feel caught up in the speed. This is also the reason why drivers misjudge situations, overtake at the wrong time and place, leading to accidents... Therefore, you should drive fast at the right time and place to avoid endangering yourself and those around you. |
