vehicle handling

• To correct a rearwheel skid you should steer into it
• You are driving in very wet weather.

  Your vehicle begins to slide.

  This effect is called Aquaplaning
• You are in very heavy downpour. Your overall stopping distance is likely to be doubled
• You should avoid 'coasting' your car because it could reduce steering control
• You are driving in thick fog using fog lights.

  When visibility improves you MUST switch them off
• Fog lights should be used ONLY when visibility is seriously reduced
• Using front/rear fog lights in good visibility will dazzle other drivers
• Motorcyclists are more at risk to be injured from other road users because they are harder to see
• You are overtaking a car at night. You must be sure that you don't dazzle other road users
• You should always reduce your speed when driving in fog because it is difficult to see
• You have to make a journey in foggy conditions.

  You should leave plenty of time for your journey
• You are driving in the left-hand lane of a dual carriageway.

  Another car overtakes and pulls in front of you leaving you without enough separation distance.

  You should drop back
• You are approaching a bend at a high speed.

  You should begin to brake before the bend
