• Do not get too close to the vehicle you want to

pass while you are awaiting an opportunity. For one

thing, following too closely reduces your area of

vision, especially if you are following a larger

vehicle. Also, you will not have adequate space if

the vehicle ahead suddenly slows or stops.

Keep back a reasonable distance.

• When it looks like a chance to pass is coming up,

start to accelerate but stay in the right lane and do

not get too close. Time your move so you will be

increasing speed as the time comes to move into

the other lane. If the way is clear to pass, you will

have a running start that more than makes up for the

distance you would lose by dropping back. And if

something happens to cause you to cancel your

pass, you need only slow down and drop back again

and wait for another opportunity.

• If other vehicles are lined up to pass a slow vehicle,

wait your turn. But take care that someone is not

trying to pass you as you pull out to pass the slow

vehicle. Remember to glance over your shoulder and

check the blind spot.

• Check your mirrors, glance over your shoulder,

and start your left lane change signal before moving

out of the right lane to pass. When you are far

enough ahead of the passed vehicle to see its

front in your inside mirror, activate your right lane

change signal and move back into the right lane.

Remember that your right outside mirror is convex.

The vehicle you just passed may seem to be farther

away from you than it really is.

• Try not to pass more than one vehicle at a time on

two-lane roads. Reconsider before passing the next

vehicle.

• Do not overtake a slowly moving vehicle too rapidly.

Even though the brake lamps are not ﬂashing, it may

be slowing down or starting to turn.

• If you are being passed, make it easy for the

following driver to get ahead of you. Perhaps you

can ease a little to the right.

Loss of Control

Let us review what driving experts say about what

happens when the three control systems — brakes,

steering, and acceleration — do not have enough

friction where the tires meet the road to do what the

driver has asked.

In any emergency, do not give up. Keep trying to

steer and constantly seek an escape route or area

of less danger.
