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
ahead
is going just by looking at its
taillights.
speed roads. Your headlights can light
up only so much road ahead.
Slow down, especially on higher
In remote areas, watch for animals.
If you’re tired, pull off the road in a
safe place and rest.

Freeway Driviing
Mile--for mile, .freeways (also called
thruways,
parkways, -expressways,
turnpikes,'
or superhighways) are the
safest of all roads. But they have their
own specid rules.
The most important advice on freeway
driving is: Heep.up with tretffic and keep
to the right. Drive at the same speed
most of the ,ot.her drivers are driving-.
Too-fast :or too-slow driving breaks a
mo'oth traffic flow. Treat the left €me
on a :freeway as :a passing lane.
.1-
Entering the Freeway
At the entrance 'there' is usually a ramp
that l;md$ to the freeway. .If you' have a
clear view of the h.my as you drive
along thr: entrance ramp, you .shmild
begin to c.heclr. trdfic. Try to determine
where. you expect to- blend with the
flav. If traffic is light, you may have no
problem. But if it -is heavy, hd.a gap as
you move dong the entering lane &id
time pur qpmach. Tryto merge into
the gap at close to ,the prevailing speed.
Switch on yow: turn signal, check your
rearview mirrors .as you move along,
and.glmce .over your shoulder as often
as necessary. 'Try to blend smoothly
with the. traffic fluw.
DrJvfng on the Freeway
Once you are on the freeway, adjust
your speed
to the posted limit or to,the
prekbg rate if it's slower. Stay in
right fane unless you want to pass. If
you are ma two-lme freeway; treat the
right lane as the sbw lane and the,left
lane the passing lane.
If you are on a thee-lane freeway, treat
the right-
lane as the. slower-speed
through lane, the middle €ane as the
higherdpeed through lane, and the left
lane -as the passing .. lane.
Before changing lanes, check your
rearview minors. Then use YOU turn
signal. Just before you I-cave-the lane,
glance
quickly over pw shoulder to
make sure there isn't another vehicle in
your "blind" spot.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Your Driving and the Road
On She Road
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
undivided
multilane highways that do not have
controlled .access,.you’ll
wmt to watch
for some situations :not usustlly found
on freeways. Examples: are: stop signs
and signals, shopping tenters with
direct access
to the highway, no passing
zones and school zones, vehicles
turning
le& and- right off the-road,
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.
