Highway driving skills crafted for SUV owners!

Driving an SUV on the highway requires a blend of skills and awareness to ensure safety and efficiency. Here are some key skills to focus on:

  •  
    1. Smooth Acceleration and Braking: Gently accelerating and braking helps maintain a steady speed and reduces wear on your vehicle ensuring smooth driving experience. The chamfered shoulder blocks in CEAT SecuraDrive SUV helps reduce braking distance and provides confident cornering.
    2. Proper Lane Discipline: Stay in your lane and use your turn signals well in advance when changing lanes. On highways, it’s important to use the right lane for slower speeds and the left lane for overtaking.
    3. Defensive Driving: Keep a safe distance from the vehicle ahead. Be prepared to react to sudden changes.
    4. Use of Mirrors: Regularly check your mirrors to stay aware of vehicles in your blind spots. Adjust your mirrors to minimize blind spots and ensure you have a clear view of the road behind you.
    5. Effective Use of Cruise Control: On long highway stretches, cruise control can help maintain a consistent speed and improve fuel efficiency. Just be sure to stay alert and ready to take control if needed.
    6. Managing Vehicle Size: SUVs are generally larger than cars, so be mindful of their dimensions, especially when changing lanes or navigating tight spaces. Pay attention to your vehicle’s width and height.
    7. Highway Speed Management: Adhere to posted speed limits and adjust your speed based on traffic conditions. Remember that speeding can lead to reduced control and increased risk of accidents.
    8. Tyre and Vehicle Maintenance: Regularly check your tyre pressure and tread depth, as well as other vehicle maintenance aspects, to ensure safe driving conditions. Properly inflated tyres and well-maintained vehicles perform better on highways.
    9. Navigating Hills and Curves: Use engine braking (downshifting) when going downhill to maintain control and reduce brake wear. Take curves at safe speeds.
    10. Emergency Manoeuvring: Practice quick but controlled manoeuvres for emergency situations. This helps to handle skids or sudden obstacles safely. CEAT SecuraDrive SUV offers precise steering, which makes it easier to navigate narrow spaces and sharp turns
    11. Staying Focused and Alert: Avoid distractions, and take breaks if you're feeling tired. Staying alert is vital for making the right decision and reacting to potential hazards at the right time.

    Mastering these skills can help you drive an SUV safely and effectively on the highway.
