Driving accidentally

How to avoid using the throttle as a brake?

For novice drivers, the most important reason for the throttle as a brake is that it is not proficient in the vehicle, or the good driving habits have not yet been developed. If you don't panic, you can drive safely.

1. When stepping on the accelerator or braking, the heel should be used as a fulcrum

When stepping on the accelerator or braking, place the heel as the axis between the throttle pedal and the brake pedal (recommended to brake position). Use your toes when you refuel. Essence Remember to keep your feet on the throttle pedal, which will delay the timing of the brake.

2. When you don’t step on the accelerator, put your feet on the brakes

When the right foot is not in a state of the accelerator, it is necessary to put it above the brakes and keep the "alert" state at all times. Once there is a situation, you can step on the brake as soon as possible. Even if the right foot is giving the oil when you need to brake, because of the long -term habits, the muscle memory in your brain can clearly distinguish the brakes and throttle in the subconsciousness, and basically it will not be wrong.

Third, have good driving habits

Some female drivers like to drive in high heels, which is very dangerous! Because the heel will raise the fulcrum of the feet, the strength and angle of the stepping pedal is increased, and the driver needs to stomach to the pedal to achieve the braking effect of the normal stepping. It is easy to get stuck below the throttle. Once an emergency occurs, it may bring great danger.

Fourth, observe the road conditions in all aspects

When driving, develop the habit of observing road conditions in all directions, and we must have a more global recognition. The farther you look ahead, the easier it is to make a judgment of the road conditions in advance. When will the oil and when to step on the brakes, all rely on the judgment of the road conditions ahead in advance. The farther who sees, the sooner you know, the less likely it is to panic.

Five, be careful of reversing

When reversing, the driver often twists his head and look back. In this way, it is easy to turn left and right. As soon as the left and right are upside down, the throttle "changes" into a brake. Therefore, in the process of reversing, when you do n’t step on the oil, you should “stand on their right” on the brake pedal, so that even if the direction is chaotic, the vehicle can be stopped in time.

In short, the most important point

Driving must be focused, not distracted

Regardless of veteran, novice

Be sure to develop good driving habits

I hope everyone can drive safely!
