Why talk about rhythm? Because rhythm itself is an art, and the rhythm of driving is an art subject in driving safely or driving a "fast car". Racers are very particular about the rhythm in the race. In the track race, every lap and every turn is repeated, how to drive faster, how not to make mistakes, and how to keep oneself when disturbed by the following car or chasing the preceding car. Invincible, it's all about rhythm. In rallying, the track is unpredictable, and the navigator's road book is not enough to dominate everything. What the driver needs to do is still to find a suitable rhythm. Even more so during the grueling and long Dakar Rally.

Many different rhythms

We usually drive, we must first consider the rhythm of the vehicle, the rhythm of the vehicle is the state of the vehicle. For example, when the cold car is just started, the water temperature has not yet come up, and the lubricating oil of the mechanical parts has not been fully lubricated. At this time, the vehicle is not suitable for strenuous exercise, so it is necessary to drive at a leisurely rhythm until the vehicle is fully warmed up. Don't let go for a run until you're done, otherwise it's easy to damage the engine and accelerate the aging of the vehicle.

In addition, after driving for a long time in a row, or the condition of the vehicle has deteriorated for a long time, or it has not been maintained for a long time, or the tires have become old, an appropriate rhythm should be adopted according to the state of the vehicle. go drive. Only by understanding the condition of the vehicle can it give full play to its performance, and the vehicle will drive more smoothly. As for how to understand, it's a lot of feeling, and one of the tricks is to always think of the car as fragile, so you can more easily establish communication with it.

Cars must be driven on the road. There are no two identical roads in the world, and different roads have different rhythms. Therefore, the rhythm of the road is also an important factor. Fast, even if it is fast, it will definitely feel uncomfortable, and the passengers will feel uncomfortable and even scared. Every road will always have its own rhythm, smooth or bumpy, uphill or downhill, curved or straight, sharp or big, bright or dark, you must first find this rhythm. In unfamiliar roads, before you can't find its rhythm, don't recklessly speeding. There are no high-speed, national or provincial roads here, nor is it the size of the speed limit, but the psychological ability to bear the speed . And the influence of the weather, such as rainy days, nights, etc., the rhythm of the road will change accordingly, and the rhythm of driving should also be changed in time, otherwise it is easy to make a big mistake. In other words, on a familiar road section, at a corner where you can close your eyes and turn, you can naturally do whatever you want, just like the little brother Fujiwara, who can drift on the Qiu Ming Mountain Road half asleep and half awake, precisely because he is interested in that road. The rhythm of the road is familiar enough.

Unfamiliar rhythm

When you first arrive in an unfamiliar place, after you can grasp the rhythm of the local road, the rhythm of the local car may also be unfamiliar. For example, in Wuhan, the bus is very crazy; in Chongqing, the taxi speed is very fast; in Shanghai, the vehicle starts very fast at the traffic light; in Beijing, the drivers are very disciplined and will not change lines randomly; and Drivers in Guangzhou will cross left and right; Shenzhen has a large traffic flow, drivers are generally impetuous, and there will be cars overtaking from your left or right at any time... Before you understand the habits of local cars, don't do anything wrong.

When you really want to cut through the traffic flow, you have to consider how to let others know your intentions, understand your rhythm, you can use the lights as signals, including turn signals and headlights, plus Control the distance to the car in front, the car behind, the car left and right, the car around you, and the speed of braking, to tell the surrounding drivers at what pace you are overtaking.

Driving according to the rhythm is an intuition, an instinctive response of the body, not a momentary rush to hurry. Your own rhythm should be mastered by yourself, but there are many times when the rhythm will be affected, such as your physical condition at the time, including your health, mental state, etc., such as lack of sleep, or internal urgency. And the passengers in the car will also affect your driving. If the car is full of people dozing off, the drowsiness is easy to infect you; if the passengers keep nagging in your ear, then you are likely to Upset. The music played in the car is also very particular, the rock is still sad, which will affect your mood, and it will also affect your rhythm. To be sure, listening to rock music and "disco" is much more likely to be involved in an accident than soft music. In short, many different crashes have been attributed to the driver's rhythm errors at the moment.

In addition, driving requires learning to control the rhythm of others. When driving at medium and slow speed for a long time, if the car behind you is too close to you, you are afraid that he will kiss your PP, what should you do? It's very simple, as long as you brake slowly and accelerate slowly, he will not hit you anyway, because this will give the opponent enough time to react. If you are afraid of others jumping in the queue, use a very fast rhythm, and suddenly put on gas and brake suddenly, then he is afraid that others will do the same thing as you when you jump in the queue. Once your braking is better than his, or he is a little distracted, then your PP suffers, who is to blame? Not to blame yourself.

In short, you must master the rhythm of driving, so that your car will be very smooth and stable, and the speed of the car will be fast and the passengers will not be nervous. It is really a high state, if you are interested, you can take it slowly. Feel it.
