On-Road Driving Tips

Utility vehicles have higher ground clearance and a
narrower track to make them capable of performing in a
wide variety of off-road applications. Specific design charac-
teristics give them a higher center of gravity than conven-
tional passenger cars.
An advantage of the higher ground clearance is a better view
of the road, allowing you to anticipate problems. They are
not designed for cornering at the same speeds as conven-
tional passenger cars any more than low-slung sports cars
are designed to perform satisfactorily in off-road conditions.
Avoid sharp turns or abrupt maneuvers. As with other vehi-
cles of this type, failure to operate this vehicle correctly may
result in loss of control or vehicle rollover.
