Driving and Operating

9-5

Curve Tips

.

Take curves at a reasonable
speed.

.

Reduce speed before entering a
curve.

.

Maintain a reasonable steady
speed through the curve.

.

Wait until the vehicle is out of
the curve before accelerating
gently into the straightaway.

Steering in Emergencies

.

There are some situations when
steering around a problem may
be more effective than braking.

.

Holding both sides of the
steering wheel allows you to turn
180 degrees without removing
a hand.

.

The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) allows steering while
braking.

Off-Road Recovery

The vehicle's right wheels can drop
off the edge of a road onto the
shoulder while driving. Follow
these tips:

1. Ease off the accelerator and

then, if there is nothing in the
way, steer the vehicle so that it
straddles the edge of the
pavement.

2. Turn the steering wheel about

one-eighth of a turn, until the
right front tire contacts the
pavement edge.

3. Then turn the steering wheel to

go straight down the roadway.

Loss of Control

Skidding

There are three types of skids that
correspond to the vehicle's three
control systems:

.

Braking Skid

—

wheels are not

rolling.

.

Steering or Cornering
Skid

—

too much speed or

steering in a curve causes tires
to slip and lose cornering force.

.

Acceleration Skid

—

too much

throttle causes the driving
wheels to spin.

Defensive drivers avoid most skids
by taking reasonable care suited to
existing conditions, and by not
overdriving those conditions. But
skids are always possible.
