LEARNING TO DRIVE

How do I keep the car in the correct lane position?

Decision Maker → Learner Driver

QUICK ANSWER

Keep the vehicle safely positioned in its lane by looking ahead and using lane markings and surrounding space as references.

WHAT THAT MEANS

Good lane position comes from understanding the vehicle’s path, not staring at one edge of the car.

SUPPORTING ANSWER SECTIONS

Center your view
Look where the lane is going.

Use road markers
Lane lines, curbs, parked cars, and roadway edges provide reference.

Correct early
Small corrections are easier than recovering after a large drift.

DRIVEx WAY OF THINKING

Notice where the vehicle sits. Recheck whether it is moving closer to either side. Decide on a small correction.
