What should you do if this ever happens?
Ease
up on the
accelerator pedal, steer the vehicle the way
you
want it
to go, and slow down.
Speed limit signs near curves warn that
you
should
adjust your speed. Of course, the posted speeds are
based
on
good weather and road conditions. Under less
favorable conditions you’ll want
to
go
slower.
If you need
to
reduce your speed
as
you approach a
curve,
do
it before
you
enter the curve, while your front
wheels are straight ahead.
Try to adjust your speed
so
you can “drive” through the
curve. Maintain a reasonable, steady speed. Wait to
accelerate until you are
out
of the curve, and then
accelerate gently into the straightaway.
Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can
be
more effective than
braking. For example,
you
come over
a
hill and find a
truck stopped in your
lane,
or a car suddenly pulls
out
from nowhere, or a child darts out from between parked
cars and stops right in front
of
you. You can avoid these
problems
by
braking
--
if
you can stop
in
time. But
sometimes you can’t; there isn’t room, That’s the time for
evasive action
--
steering around
the
problem.
Your vehicle can perform very well in emergencies like
these. First apply your brakes. (See “Braking in
Emergencies” earlier in this section.)
It
is better to
remove as much speed as you can from a possible
collision. Then steer around
the
problem,
to
the left
or
right depending
on
the space available.
