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’s 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.
* If you suspect that the- driver of the
vehicle
you want to. pass isn’t .aware
of-your presence, tap the horn a
couple of times before. passing.
Do not.get too close- to the vehicle
you want
to pass while you’re
awaiting an opportunity. For one
thing, following tQo closely reduces
your area
of vision, especi-ally if you’re
following
a larger vehicle. Also, you
won’t have adequate space if the
vehicle
,ahead suddenly slows dr
stops. Keep back a- reasonable
distance.

pass, you need only slow down and
drop back again and wait for another
opportunity.
If other vehicles .are lined up to pass a
slow vehicle, wait your turn. But: take

Skidding (CONT.)
(including engine braking by shifting to
a lower gear). Any sudden change could
cause the tires
to slide. You may not
realize
the surface is slippery until your
vehicle
is skidding. Learn to recognize
warning clues-such as enough water,
ice or packed snow
on the road to make
a ‘‘mirrored surface”-and slow down
when you have any doubt.
Remember: Any anti-lock braking
system
(ABS) helps avoid only the
bralung skid.
Steer the way you want
the vehicle to
go.
Driving at Night
Night driving is more dangerous than.
day driving. One reason is that some
drivers are likely
to be impaired-by
alcohol or drugs, with night vision
problems, or by fatigue.
Here are some tips
on night driving.
Drive defensively. Remember, this is
the most dangerous time.
Don’t drink and drive. (See the Index
under Drunken Dn’ving for mure on
this problem.)
Adjust your inside rearview mirror to
reduce
the glare from headlights
behind you.
Since you can’t see as well, you may
need
to slow down and keep more
space between you and other vehicles.
It’s hard to teil how fast the vehicle

In remote areas, watch for animals.

Uidess you are the -only driver, it is good
to share the driving task with others.
Limit turns behind
the wheel to about
100 miles (160 km) Or two hours at a
sitting.-Then, either change drivers ar
stop for some rdreshment like coffee,
tea or
soft drinks and some limbering
up.
But do stop and move around. Eat
lightly along the way. Heavier meals
tend to
mdke some people sleepy.
On two-lane highways or

for some situations :not usustlly found
on freeways. Examples: are: stop signs

pedestrians, cyclists, parked vehicles, and even a&&.
Highway Hypnosis
Is thete-actually such a condition as
“highway hypnosis”? Or
is it just plain
falling asleep at the wheel? Call it
highway hypnosis, lack
of awareness, or
whatever.
There is
something about an easy
stretch
of road with the same scenery,
along with the
hum of the tires on the
road, the drone of the engine; and the
rush of the wind against the vehicle that
can make you sleepy. Don’t let it
happen
to you! If it does, your vehicle
can leave the road in less than a
second, and you could crash and be
injured.
What can you do about highway
hypnosis? First, be aware that it can
happen.
Then here
are some tips:
4 Make sure your vehicle is well
ventilated,
with a comfortably cool
interior.
Keep your eyes moving. Sca.n the road
ahead and
-to the sides. Check your
rearview mirrors frequently and your
instruments from time to time. This
can help you avoid
a fixed stare.
Wear good sunglasses in bright light.
Glare can cause drowsiness. But
don’t
wear sunglasses at night. They will.
drastically reduce-your,overall.~sion
at the very time you need all the.
seeing power
you have.
If you get sleepy, pull off the road into
a rest, service, &‘parking area and
take a nap, get so.me exercise, or both.
For safety, treat drowsiness on the
highway
as an emergency.
As in any driving situation, keep pace
with traffic and allow adequate
foIlowing distances.

When to Change Engine Oil
See if my one of these is true !€or-you:
Most trips are less than 4 miles
(6 lm).
It's below freezing outside and most
trips are less than
10 miles (16 km) .
TEie engine is at low speed most of the
time
(as in stop-and-go traEc).
Most trips are through dusty places.
If any one of these is true for your
vehicle, you need to change
your oil
and filter every 3,000 miles
(5 000 km) or 3 months-whichever
comes first. (See
the Index under
Engine Oil Life Monitor.)
If none of them.is true, change the oil
every 7,500 miles (12 500 lun) or 12
months-whichever comes first.
Change the filter
at the first oil change
and
at every other oil change after that.
(See the Index under Engine Oil Life
Monitor.)
