As a woman racer who focus on safety. What's the ultimate in driving safety?
Most importantly we know how to take care of vehicles and matters concerning road safety. If both of these have been met, I believe every person can drive well.
What should be considered in car maintenance?
Engine, tires, and so on. Most women, tend not to pay attention to the machines because they are less interested in the affairs under the hood of the car, the tire business, and so forth.
How should she respond?
We need more frequent attention to the machine. Then we have to choose, or if already teranjur buy a car, a car equipped with safety features that fit your budget.
Safety features such as what your ideal?
In general, today's cars already have a number of safety features like ABS Braking, airbags and electronic stability control. Well, these features are standard for driver safety. The rest of the audio luxurious and expensive accessories are additional features. Not useful for our protection from accidents.
Then the car like what the ideal?
It is recommended to choose a car All-Wheel-Drive (AWD) is offered as a Subaru. And choose a car according to our needs. For example if we are daily in large cities, the big-engined cars is not the right choice.
What is the function of AWD?
With the motion system of four-wheel-traction four tires then the better and complete safety features owned car.
What to watch on a car tire?
Ensure proper tire pressure (no less or more). Perform balancing (balancing) tires regularly. Less air pressure or excessive, will cause the car is not balanced / stable while driving. Buy the best quality tires. Remember the safety features and tires grip very dependent on the quality of tires.
There are other tips about road safety?
Most women put a lot of stuff in the cabin. It is better if the car is clean of goods. If they are scattered about would be harmful to all occupants of the cabin. Do not get used to hang clothes in the window or put a lot of stuff in the dashboard for disturbing the driver's view.
How do we keep a safe distance when driving?
Keep a safe distance from the car in front of you as far as "two seconds". If the car in front passes a 'boundary marker' or stakes, count 2 seconds (1.2.) And you also have to pass through the boundary markers or stakes. If you pass the marker before you finish counting 2 seconds then you are driving a distance too close to the car in front of you. In case of rain or mengendarakan large vehicles, we use a count of 4 seconds (1.2.3.4.), Because the car needs more time to stop.
When driving at night?
First, Use the headlights with a state of full, so the driver can see the road ahead as far as possible. Second, do not drive a vehicle with a high speed so that if there is something to be avoided we can react quickly to avoid it. And third, be wary of people or animals crossing.
How do I hold the steering wheel?
Steering wheel like a sphere hours. Align your hands. The left hand is positioned parallel to the 9 o'clock and right hand parallel to the 3 o'clock. So our hands will not prevent the airbag inflates. Try to always look ahead as far as possible. And if we know there is a potential danger or accident situations, always trying to quickly find loopholes in order to avoid accidents. Never focus on vehicles that disturb and threaten our cars.
There's the last thing you want delivered?
Enjoy it while driving. The car is a beautiful thing and give us freedom, but we realize it or not, the car also has an outside force could (potential) to harm us.
