• 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 if your

passenger side 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.

Skidding

In a skid, a driver can lose control of the vehicle.

Defensive drivers avoid most skids by taking

reasonable care suited to existing conditions, and

by not overdriving those conditions. But skids

are always possible.

The three types of skids correspond to your

vehicle’s three control systems. In the braking skid,

your wheels are not rolling. In the steering or

cornering skid, too much speed or steering in a

curve causes tires to slip and lose cornering force.

And in the acceleration skid, too much throttle

causes the driving wheels to spin.

A cornering skid is best handled by easing your

foot off the accelerator pedal.
