Recovery
You may find that your right wheels have dropped
off
the
edge of a road onto the shoulder while you’re driving.

APPROX.
QUARTERTURN
If
the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the
pavement, recovery should be fairly easy.
Ease
off
the
accelerator and then,
if
there is nothing in the way, steer
so
that your vehicle straddles the edge of the pavement. You
can
turn
the steering wheel up to one-quarter
turn
until the
right front tire contacts the pavement edge. Then
turn
your
steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.
Passing
The driver of a vehicle about to pass another on a
two-lane highway waits for just the right moment,
accelerates, moves around the vehicle ahead, then goes
back into the right lane again.
A
simple maneuver?
Not necessarily! Passing another vehicle on a two-lane
highway is a potentially dangerous move, since the
passing vehicle occupies the same lane as oncoming
traffic for several seconds.
A
miscalculation,
an
error in
judgment, or a brief surrender to frustration or anger can
suddenly put the passing driver face to face with the
worst of all traffic accidents
--
the head-on collision.
So
here are some tips for passing:
0
“Drive ahead.”
Look
down the road, to the sides and to
crossroads for situations that might affect your passing
patterns.
If
you have any doubt whatsoever about
making a successful pass, wait for a better time.
Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings and lines.
If you can see a sign up ahead that might indicate
a
turn or
an
intersection, delay your pass.
A
broken
center line usually indicates it’s all right to pass
(providing
the
road ahead is clear). Never cross a solid
line on your side of the lane or a double solid line,
even
if
the road
seems
empty of approaching traffic.
