Driving SafelyPregunta 60 de 60
What is the safest way to handle an emergency lane change in a loaded tanker?
a.Jerk the wheel quickly to move over fast
b.Brake as hard as possible while steering
c.Ignore the surge and steer normally
d.Steer smoothly and countersteer gently to avoid starting a rollover-causing surge
Explicación
A quick, hard steering move can start a violent side-to-side surge and roll a top-heavy tanker. If you must change lanes suddenly, steer as smoothly as possible and countersteer gently to bring the vehicle back straight without over-correcting. Keeping steering inputs controlled is critical to avoid rollover.
