Overtaking skills when driving on the road
Mastering traffic laws, controlling speed, controlling the steering wheel... are necessary skills when driving. So, how to safely overtake vehicles on the road?
Always stay focused, anticipate the situation, and choose the right time to overtake. At the same time, you must adjust your speed appropriately. The speed of the vehicle requesting to overtake cannot exceed the speed limit allowed by law. If you are driving at 40 km/h, but the speed limit of the road is only 50 km/h, you should not overtake.
Before overtaking, you must carefully observe the vehicle in front that is going in the opposite direction, the vehicle going in the same direction, the vehicle in front of your lane, whether there is a motorbike in the right lane, or whether another vehicle can easily make a sudden left turn. You must anticipate all possible situations, and at the same time signal to the vehicles on the road to overtake. If you are allowed to overtake, then the driver will turn the steering wheel to change lanes.
Do not deliberately overtake when the vehicle in front has a legitimate reason not to allow you to overtake. When the vehicle in front has given way, you must perform decisive actions, accelerate quickly and steer to overtake quickly. Avoid hesitation, when you have steered and changed lanes but hesitate to overtake, at this time, your vehicle is at a blind spot, the intersection of the vehicle in front and the vehicle behind. If you do not overtake quickly, it may cause an accident.
When passing a car that is stopped on the side of the road, you must slow down and honk to avoid the situation where the car in front opens the door or someone suddenly crosses the front of the car and you cannot handle it in time.
