Learn to drive carefully

There are many courses available to improve driving skills, these courses can cover a wide range of skills, however you should only focus on what you really need and what you are lacking.

Remember that the information or skills that the experts guide are useful. So, it is better to remember those things than to ignore them and have unfortunate events later. You need to pay attention on all terrains, the basic principle is: accelerate gently, pay attention to the safety of yourself and those around you.

Maintain a steady speed when driving on sand

Off-road enthusiasts (both new and old) enjoy speeding through bushes, sand dunes, or performing like the pros do, but these can pose a risk to you and your vehicle.

When your tire pressure drops, you need to drive carefully - especially on sand because it is difficult terrain. You need to be careful not to try to press the accelerator when your car is going slow or difficult. This can be dangerous as the car can suddenly accelerate when it reaches more stable terrain, endangering everyone around you, including yourself. On sand, momentum is important, you need to keep your foot steady on the accelerator and the car will move forward.

Also, even when you are driving on deserted beaches, you still need to pay attention to your speed. You should drive at a speed of 30 to 40 km/h to ensure safety in any situation that may arise.

When going uphill, it is also important to drive at a steady speed. This will make those around you feel more secure and it will also make it easier for you to control.

Reduce weight when the vehicle is stuck

You need a variety of skills to handle situations ranging from being stuck in low pressure environments (bogged on the beach at low tide) to being stuck in high pressure environments (bogged at high tide).

Remember that you should not rush to step on the gas, but you need to carefully assess the situation around you: Are all 4 wheels stuck, are half the wheels stuck in the sand and are there any bogging problems around your car.

If you reduce your weight and your car is still stuck, you can use other methods such as using planks (hard plastic or boards) to get the car out of the mud. Once you have cleared the surrounding obstacles, place the planks in the direction you want to go.

Reduce your weight on the bike to gain better momentum. Make sure it is safe to signal people around you to stay away from your bike. Then, accelerate and ride gently to grab the cleats to get out of the mud. If the wheel loses grip and spins, you need to turn off the engine and put the cleats back properly.

And make sure your car will get out of that muddy situation. You will encounter this situation many times so remember that this is just a small challenge to make your trip more colorful and interesting.
