Winter driving tips - Tracking is important steering

Here's a tip for winter driving those of us, a vehicle that is not on ice and snow have experienced. The only problem is that we are "tracking" lost the front wheel, and this is a bit 'as the front runners instead of wheels and steering.

Tracking is basically the wheels roll over the entire surface of the road. If the wheels as fast as you cross the main road, are monitored. If the wheels are rotating at a slower rateas you cross the street, are slipping, slipping, hydroplaning or adrift.

If you apply the brakes hard while driving on snow and ice, the powerful front brakes (most of the brakes to do) to stop or slow the front wheels. This reduces or eliminates the "tracking" and makes it difficult to control the car. The car steers, because the wheels of the roller. If it interferes with rolling, it interferes with management.

Here is how to control, maintaining theseWheels roll and "tracking" properly:


Slows to the point where you turn in your without having to roll the vehicle control.

Design and implementation of a turn as the gentle bends reduce the ability to follow the right wheels, thereby promoting a runner.

Keeping the brakes in the corners (and hence the need to slow down before the curve).

It takes some practice to get it right. The key to remember is that the wheels roll for you to be able to controlTheir vehicles on snow and ice. Everything that moves the front wheels interfere with the ability to control the direction of travel.

You can use the relationship between "tracking" and the steering wheel, if you have free parking which is covered with snow and walk a little 'practice with the brakes and steering. Start slowly and carefully, and be confident a lot of space away from light poles, basket rack, concrete curbs andlike you before each test.
