safely by paying careful attention to
the surrounding conditions and
operating the steering wheel to cor-
rect the path of the vehicle. Also,
the driver must take adequate
breaks when fatigued, such as from
driving for a long period of time.
● Failure to perform appropriate driv-
ing operations and pay careful
attention may lead to an accident,
resulting in death or serious injury.

tem off.
