At highway speed, your right wheels drift off the pavement onto the shoulder. What should you do first?
A has its right wheels off the pavement on the shoulder while traveling along a two-way road.
Correct answer: Hold the wheel firmly, ease off the gas, and slow down on the shoulder.
Why
If your wheels run off the pavement, do not panic. Grip the steering wheel tightly, stay on the shoulder, ease off the accelerator, and brake gently until your speed is low. Then check traffic behind and ahead and turn firmly back onto the pavement. A sudden turn at high speed can send the car across the road.
