7 Things You Do Wrongly With Your Car by Godspower35(m): 2:13am On Jan 13, 2019 |
The fact that you drove for a long time behind the wheel or have seen how other drivers do something does not mean that this is the right decision. There can be so many things that you do wrong with your car, because you never waste time reading the manufacturer's instructions: Things you did wrongly with your car Driving is a challenge that requires your full attention. You must also abide by the rules of driving. However, everyone has bad habits because they either don’t know or have seen others do it. Here are 7 things you do wrong with your car: 1) The presence of blind spots. You should not see your car in the side mirrors. If you do, it means that your car has a blind spot, which should not be. How to fix it? Perform the following procedures: · Attach the head to the window and tilt the mirror so that the car is barely visible. · Repeat this for the passenger side mirror. · Put your head over the center console and see if the car is visible in any of the mirrors. 2) Driving in someone's blind zone Similarly, you should not drive in the blind zone of your front car. The driver in the front car will not see you if you line up with his rear wheel. This can be dangerous because the driver will not check when changing lanes or turning. 3) Looking straight at the car in front If you focus too much on the car that is right in front of you, everything else on the road will become blurry. In this case, all your decisions will depend on the actions of the driver of this car, which can be dangerous. Instead, pay attention to the gaps between the cars or look through the windshield of the front car to know what is happening around. 4) Using rays in the fog This will limit your vision, as the high beam illumination is reflected from water particles in the air. The effect is pretty dazzling. Just turn on the low beam in foggy conditions so that other drivers know your position. 5) Put your hands on 10 and 2. The recommended position of your hands at 9 and 3 o'clock, when the thumbs will not loop on the rim, but will be located along it. This position is convenient for driving and safe. Otherwise, an explosive airbag can clear the skin of your hand. 6) Turning the cold engine. Another thing that you do wrong with your car. Operation is particularly dangerous in cold weather. When you just start the car, the oil is still cold and it will not lubricate all parts properly. Doing any rash, such as rotation or acceleration in this state, causes excessive wear. 7) Braking right foot. This is normal if you are driving a manual car, also if you are driving an automatic car, this means that you use one leg for two tasks. Using your left foot to press the brake pedal is the wrong way to control an automatic car.

Lol. If number 7 is true then 99.99% of Nigerians driving automatic are using their right leg to apply brakes and are wrong. Chai |
