Why Safety Belts Work
When you ride-in or on anything, you
go -as fast as it goes.
1. For example, if the bike is going 10
-mpfi (16 km/h), so is the child.
2. When the bike hits the block, it
stops. But the child keeps going!
3. Take the simplest "car." Suppose
it's just- a seat on wheels.

Your Driving and the Road

Steering Tips-Driving on Curves
(CONT.)
Speed limit signs near curves warm that
you should adjust your speed.
Of
course, the posted speeds are based on
good weather and road conditions.
Under less favorable conditions you’ll
want to
go slower.
If you need to reduce your speed as you
approach
a curve, do it before you enter
the curve, while your hont wheels are
straight ahead.
Try
to adjust your speed so you can
Wive” through the curve. Maintain a
reasonable, steady speed. Wait to
accelerate until you are out
of the curve,
and then accelerate gently into the
straightaway.
When you drive into
a curve at night,
it’s harder to see the road ahead
of you
because it bends away
from the straight
beams
of your lights. This is one good
reason to drive slower.

Steering in Emergencies
There are times when steering can be
more effective than braking. For
example,
you come over a hill and find
a truck stopped
in your lane, or a car
suddenly pulls out
€ram nowhere, or a
child darts out from between parked
cars and stops right in front of you. You
can avoid these problems by braking-if
you can stop in time. But sometimes
you can’t; there isn’t
room. That’s the
time for evasive action-steering
around the problem.
Your Corvette
can perform very well in
emergencies like these. First apply your
brakes. It is better
to remove as much
speed as you can
from a possible
collision. Then steer around the
9
problem, to the left or right depending
on the space available.
An emergency like this requires close
attention and a quick decision.
If you
are holding the steering wheel at the
recommended
9 and 3 o’clock positions,
you can turn it a full 180 degrees very
quickly without removing either hand.
But you have to act fast, steer quickly,
and just as quickly straighten the wheel
once
you have avoided the object. You
must then be prepared to steer back to
your original lane and then brake to a
controlled stop.
Depending on your speed, this can be
rather violent for an unprepared driver.
This is one of the reasons driving
experts recommend that you use your
safety belts and keep both hands
on the
steering wheel.
The fact that such emergency situations
are always possible is
a good reason to
practice defensive driving at
all times.
