KNOW THE CAR YOU DRIVE

Lodgepole Pine
Behind tne wheel of a new
or strunye car, even a careful
driver can be a menace, says the
AAA driver training book,
“Sportsmanlike Driving.”
Workers make errors with
new machines. So do drivers
with strange cars.
An unfamiliar automobile can
interfere with your old driving
habits. Strange gadgets may
confuse you.
Your driving habits were
built around the mechanical set
up of your own old car. This is
especially true of motor skill
habits. Your muscles learned
through practice just what
force, direction, and time you
need to reach and use yqur
brakes, clutch, and gadgets.
With a new or strange car, the
same force, direction, and tim
ing can be all wrong. The car
goes haywire. In a split second,
you cause an accident!
Be extra careful when you
drive an unfamiliar car. Don’t
let your old habits fool you.
You have something new to
learn.
Be alert. You
