Holding the steering wheel properly - a little-known driving skill

- Adjust driving position:To drive safely while participating in traffic, the first thing is to adjust the seat and steering wheel position to best suit your body shape. The driving position must be comfortable, the vision must not be limited, the brake, clutch, and accelerator pedals must not be out of reach, and the ability to fully depress the pedals in a comfortable position. The safest and easiest to control steering wheel position is 9 o'clock - 3 o'clock or 10 o'clock - 2 o'clock.

- When cornering lightly:In case of steering at a small angle, just keep the driving position as when going straight and turn the steering wheel slightly to the left or right then return straight gently.

- When cornering:In the case of sharp turns with large angles, many drivers still cross their arms out of habit and think that this way is very fast. However, experts advise to turn the steering wheel to ensure safety instead of crossing your arms. Because if an accident happens, the airbag on the steering wheel will deploy and endanger the driver if he crosses his arms on the steering wheel.

- Through the intersection:Depending on the width and narrowness, there are appropriate ways to turn the steering wheel. The important thing is to drive at a moderate speed and always stay in the correct lane. Drivers should not let the steering wheel free but actively turn the steering wheel back to the straight position.

- Through the roundabout:Similar to at a three-way intersection, when going through a roundabout you should proactively control your speed and recognize the size of the roundabout to turn the steering wheel gently or quickly.Drivers need to control speed and observe surroundings carefully, while steering appropriately.

- Prepare to park:If you want to slow down to find a parking space, you have to rub the steering wheel. This way, the car will not turn too fast and easily hit another car.
