How To Drive A Car In Reverse
My name is Kevin Woods on behalf of expertvillage.com; phone number (314) 584-0116. Moving a car backwards is just as important as driving frontwards. First thing you are going to do is put your left hand in the center of the wheel and nice and relaxed; you don't want to be gripping the wheel. Next thing you are going to get the back up position which means putting your right hand on the right head rest and you look back. At that point, you slowly allow the car to move back and you go back. Then next thing they do is ask you to stop and make sure you stop the car and then turn back around. They definitely don't want to see you moving back and they say stop and you turn around and the car is still moving backwards. If you are backing up and the car starts going off to the right, you move the wheel to the left and then straighten her back up. If you are backing up and a car starts going off to the left, you move the wheel to the right and then you straighten her back up.
