The steering wheel can be said to be one of the most basic operating parts when we drive! Many people are very "handsome" when they play the steering wheel! But is this really safe? Today I will give you an analysis, the steering wheel, how should it be played!
The correct grip on the steering wheel
The left hand is held at 9 o'clock, and the right hand is held at 3 o'clock! The thumb is naturally placed on both sides of the steering wheel!
Wrong steering wheel usage
Backhand steering wheel: If you hold the steering wheel with your backhand at the beginning, then, when you hit the wheel back, you will not be able to play back due to physiological reasons. If you encounter a special situation at this time. Well, something could go wrong!
When returning to the wheel, the hand leaves the steering wheel: today's cars are equipped with the function of steering assistance, and many car owners let the steering wheel automatically return to the center when returning to the wheel. In this way, if you encounter a situation when returning to the wheel. I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with!
How should you go in different road conditions?
Continuous Corners: The point of continuous corners is to slow down! Before entering the corner, you can lean slightly to the right, and if you turn to the right, you can lean to the left. How many turns of the steering wheel are played, but due to the different roads, we don't have a legal theory.
For example, when you turn a corner at an intersection, a circle in the direction is generally enough, but on a narrow mountain road, you must fill it up!
U-turn: U-turn is a skill that we inevitably use in our daily driving. There are two types of U-turns. First of all, there is a lot of space ahead, and we can "turn big corners". Stay a little further away from the inside of the vehicle to avoid scratching accidents!
Secondly, if there is less space in front of you that can be adjusted, sometimes you may not be able to pass by one wheel. We're going to have to think about driving twice before we pass!
It should be reminded that when making a U-turn, it is not necessary to kill the direction. We should set aside a certain amount of it! Grasp the steering wheel according to the actual situation!
Matters that should be paid attention to when playing the direction
Strive not to play wheels in situ: Playing wheels in situ will cause great damage to the tires and reduce the service life of the tires.
The power steering system will be damaged: due to the high resistance of the wheels, the working pressure of the power assist system will be several times greater than usual, which in turn will increase the pressure and temperature of the power assist system. Cause oil leakage and other situations!
The correct way should be: veteran drivers will let the vehicle move first, and then turn the direction, and will reserve a certain amount when parking!
Pay-off disc killed! No!
Killing the direction will also cause damage to the power steering pump. Because, when the direction is killed, the internal oil pressure reaches the maximum value! The temperature rises, and the steering system will be damaged. Once or twice you may not see anything. However, over time, the problem will become serious!
