Off-Road Recovery

You may ﬁnd that your right wheels have dropped

off the edge of a road onto the shoulder while you

are driving.

If the level of the shoulder is only slightly below the

pavement, recovery should be fairly easy. Ease off the

accelerator and then, if there is nothing in the way, steer

so that your vehicle straddles the edge of the pavement.

You can turn the steering wheel up to one-quarter turn

until the right front tire contacts the pavement edge. Then

turn your steering wheel to go straight down the roadway.

Passing

The driver of a vehicle about to pass another on a

two-lane highway waits for just the right moment,

accelerates, moves around the vehicle ahead, then

goes back into the right lane again. A simple maneuver?

Not necessarily! Passing another vehicle on a two-lane

highway is a potentially dangerous move, since the

passing vehicle occupies the same lane as oncoming

traffic for several seconds. A miscalculation, an error in

judgment, or a brief surrender to frustration or anger can

suddenly put the passing driver face to face with the

worst of all traffic accidents — the head-on collision.

So here are some tips for passing:

• Drive ahead. Look down the road, to the sides

and to crossroads for situations that might affect

your passing patterns. If you have any doubt

whatsoever about making a successful pass,

wait for a better time.

• Watch for traffic signs, pavement markings and

lines. If you can see a sign up ahead that might

indicate a turn or an intersection, delay your pass.

A broken center line usually indicates it is all

right to pass, providing the road ahead is clear.

Never cross a solid line on your side of the lane or

a double solid line, even if the road seems empty

of approaching traffic.
