Tecniche e consigli di guida

Here are some basic techniques to help you drive better (from Motor Authority.com)

• Drive smoothly. You can accelerate smoothly without being slow. Steer with purpose, don’t just drift around. When you need to brake, do it assertively, not abruptly.
• Drive with both hands on the wheel, at 9 and 3 o’clock.
• Don’t pump the brakes if your vehicle has anti-lock brake systems.
• Leave the stability control and other driver aids on.
• Give bikes and motorcycles a wider berth than you would other vehicles.
• Drive predictably. When others can tell what you’re doing, you help them drive better themselves.
• Don’t ask your tyres to work too hard. Contact patches are only about a palm wide.
• Watch several cars ahead. Accidents usually happen when you’re not paying attention.
• Don’t ride the brakes, and don’t brake-check other drivers.
• Don’t use cruise control when it’s raining, or snowing, or anything but fair weather
• Don’t run summer tyres in the winter, and don’t run winter tyres in the summer.
• Don’t drive with fogged windows.
• Don’t drive without windscreen wipers.
• Don’t drive unless both your headlights and rear lights are in working order.
• Dry your brakes in heavy weather with a light squeeze on the pedal. It’s a good way to keep maximum brake power on tap.
