What should you do if this ever happens? Ease up on

the brake or accelerator pedal, steer the vehicle the way

you want it to go, and slow down.

Speed limit signs near curves warn that you should

adjust your speed. Of course, the posted speeds

are based on good weather and road conditions. Under

less favorable conditions you will want to go slower.

If you need to reduce your speed as you approach

a curve, do it before you enter the curve, while the front

wheels are straight ahead.

Try to adjust your speed so you can drive through the

curve. Maintain a reasonable, steady speed. Wait

to accelerate until you are out of the curve, and then

accelerate gently into the straightaway.

Adding non-dealer/non-retailer accessories can affect

your vehicle’s performance. See Accessories and

Modiﬁcations on page 5-3.

Steering in Emergencies

There are times when steering can be more effective

than braking. For example, you come over a hill and ﬁnd

a truck stopped in your lane, or a car suddenly pulls

out from nowhere, or a child darts out from between

parked cars and stops right in front of you. You

can avoid these problems by braking — if you can stop

in time. But sometimes you cannot; there is not room.

That is the time for evasive action — steering around the

problem.

Your vehicle can perform very well in emergencies like

these. First apply the brakes. See Braking on

page 4-4. It is better to remove as much speed as you

can from a possible collision. Then steer around the

problem, to the left or right depending on the space

available.
