Which of the following actions should we take to correct deviations caused by side wind?
Safe driving
Explanation
Driving with **crosswind** can be dangerous, as it may cause the vehicle to lose control, overturn, or veer off the road. To handle this situation safely, it is important to **hold the steering wheel firmly**. This helps maintain control of the vehicle and counteract the force of the wind trying to deflect it.
- **Holding the steering wheel firmly** allows the driver to react appropriately to wind gusts, especially when the wind blows from the side.
- It is crucial to keep the steering wheel in the **opposite direction to the wind** to prevent the vehicle from deviating from its path.
- Additionally, driving more slowly and keeping the windows closed are additional measures that help improve vehicle stability in strong wind conditions.
These precautions are essential to ensure safety when driving in crosswind conditions.
