Question

I have trouble driving straight on the road and following the tracks, what is a way to drive straight ??

Answer 1

Look further ahead down the road.  If you keep your focus or attention on the nearest section of the road. You will have a tendency to wagle about. Two tricks when using your eyes in driving all ways look at where you want to go not where the vehicle is heading to. Your body will follow where your eyes are looking naturally. If you stare at the lines just in front of the vehicle you will not be able to correct the path you are heading to in a nice easy manor.  

  So just look further ahead. Keep your tire pressure even. And if your shocks or struts are good you will be going straight between the lines.

Driving takes patience.

You can't be an expert driver in a day.

Your driving will improve as you spend more time out in the roads soaking up experience.

What does experience buy you?

On a trivial level, it teaches you to remember your most frequented routes.

But, more seriously, it allows you to build up a collection of reactions for certain situations.

There are so many driving situations you could be in during the course of your commute to work or school: the highway on ramp, the exit ramp, the fast lane, the slow lane, driving at night, driving in the rain, driving in the snow, etc.

The more times you've had to experience each situation, the better you will be able to anticipate what you need to do.

Answer 3

When learning to drive, most people grab the wheel too hard which causes them to go off to the left or right or weave. Everybody also needs to be aware of their dominant hand, because this will cause you to use one hand more than the other to steer.

The best thing to do is to practice driving straight ahead, looking well up the center of your lane (not at the lines or the curbs or other vehicles), and use the thumb and forefinger of each hand positioned at 3 and 9 oclock on your steering wheel. This will eventually teach you to relax and not grab the wheel with such a hard grip.

Your hands and your feet follow your eyes. This is the way your brain works.

When you walk through a doorway, you look through the space in the doorway, right? You don't look at the frame of the door. Do the same when driving along a street.......look through your space......up the middle of your lane. Be patient, it takes time to learn to steer properly. The eyes have it!

Good Luck

Answer 4

line up the center of your hood with the white line on the side of the road.......this will ensure you stay in your lane...when you are sitting in the drivers seat the center of your hood will line up in your line of sight with the white line on the right side of the road........

ooh and a note to cool there......try getting your cars alignment checked...that is usually why they pull to the side!!!

Answer 7

See this question below, in the USA people must use their left hand on the steering wheel a lot because the steering wheel is on the left. This has been shown to be difficult and even dangerous for the right handed  majority

Answer 8

If any of your tyres are not inflated to the correct pressure this will pull your car to one side.

Answer 9

You are looking too close in front of the car. It's like dancing while looking at your feet - you WILL fall over.

You need to look far ahead, and then you'll be driving straight.

Answer 10

Just follow the lane the best you can with the steering wheel. Also, most cars, trucks, suvs, vans, etc. (if not all of them, and by them I mean all motor vehicles in general) tend to pull to one side, either left or right, so you have to keep correcting the car with the steering wheel to keep it going straight.

Answer 11

Hang up the cell phone, put out the cigarette & drop the beer can.

Answer 12

The important question is .... .Why do you have this problem?

Possible solutions include...

you need more rest

you need your eyes checked

you need blood pressure meds

you need to quit buying your meds on a street corner

you need to put the bottle down

you need to put the phone down

you need to have the front end of your car checked

you just need to pay freakin' attention when behind the wheel

or,   you may not be qualified to drive and giving you a license was a drastic mistake.
