Driving Tips for New Learners

A variety of things are to be kept in mind while you are learning how to drive. These include a deal of things that are to be incorporated and kept at mind. There are a lot of people willing to drive, but they usually miss out on the basics of driving skills. For beginners here we bring a list of dos and don'ts.
1.   Getting familiar
You need to get familiar with all the tips and tricks of learning how to dive your new car. One has to first get familiar with the type of car that he or she has purchased. You need to know it in theory too, to practice it in actuality. Understanding the clutch and the gear arrangements in practicality is altogether different. You need to know the gear shifting techniques at high speed and techniques of reversing the gear.
2.   Seat adjustment
Lack of comfort and control usually leads to lack of control which simultaneously results in accident probabilities. Your seat should be such that you are able to view around easily and comfortably. The height of your eyes should exactly be at half the height of the windshield. Your knees must be stretched too far when pedalling. Do not stoop forward while you driving and sit upright all the time.
3.   Distraction avoiding
Adjust the mirrors, get attentive and recollect all the rules of the road, Be attention focussed every single minute of the time that you are on the driver's seat. New drivers must also avoid high volume music and deep conversations with the co-passenger. Keep your cell phone away from you.
4.   Reach the pedals
Make sure your feet reach the pedals, while you are at it. Your knees must be bent at 120 degrees while you try to reach the pedals of your car.
5.   Steering wheel position
The 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock is the best positions of holding a steering wheel the correct way. This helps in having the best control of the steering and thus turns the car easily.
6.   Use turn Signals
Make sure you have majored all the turn signals before you start on the driving. The incorrect use of these symbols can get you to a lot of trouble and may result in major accidents.
7.   Don't over-speed
Remember you are new at driving and now is not the time to hit the accelerator. That can always be done when you have mastered the art. However, Tempting it might seem, avoid over speeding
