DRIVING TIPS
5) When overtaking other vehicles, watch
out for oncoming vehicles and carefully
ensure safety.
6) Don't attempt zigzag driving as it will
hinder your control over the vehicle and
may cause an accident.
7) Avoid reckless high speed driving and
try to drive at a safe speed suitable for
the road conditions while maintaining a
constant speed.
8) The higher the speed, the narrower the
driver's visual range becomes. In such
a state, it is difficult to anticipate any
hazard and the driver feels fatigued.

9) Do not attempt sharp handling during
high speed driving. You may lose your
control over your vehicle.
10)When overtaking or changing lanes
while driving at a high speed, keep
ample vehicle-to-vehicle distance.

Braking
EXAMPLE
64MM04006
1) Use the parking brake when parking
your vehicle and shift the gear shift
lever into the first gear or reverse gear
position for the sake of safety.
2) Don't
use
hand-braking
unless
unavoidable. It causes the vehicle to
skid and a collision may occur. It is
especially dangerous when the tyres
are worn out as they skid more.
EXAMPLE
64MM04007
Use foot brake in three stages
1. Warn the vehicle behind you.
2. Gradually apply the brake.
3. Bring the vehicle to a halt.
3) When driving downhill, try not to apply
the brake but use the engine brake
effectively. Overuse of the foot-brake
may result in reduction of brake effec-
tiveness.
Long Distance Driving
1) Be sure to perform safety checks
before starting a trip.
2) Take rest at regular intervals to prevent
accidents which may occur due to feel-
ing sleepy or tired.
