- Slow down before entering a curve and avoid braking in the curve.
- If you do enter a curve too fast, don’t jam on the brakes. Instead, apply them carefully to keep control.
- When entering a left-hand curve, steer toward, but not over, the centre of the road.
- When entering a right-hand curve, steer toward the right side of the road.
- Beware of drivers who may have strayed into part of your lane.
- Decide well in advance where you are going to turn and move into the appropriate lane, following the correct lane-change rules.
- Once you are in the proper lane, signal at least 30 metres before the turn. Outside cities, towns or villages, signal at least 150 metres before turning.
- For cars with manual transmissions, shift to the proper gear before turning.
