Vehicle Balance Considerations
![Page 11: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Vehicle Balance
Vehicle Balance: the distribution of the weight of the vehicle on the tires as they meet the ground
A driver uses the feeling of motion consistently to judge acceleration, deceleration, and the loss of traction
![Page 12: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Requirements for Maintaining Vehicle Balance Precise steering movements Smooth acceleration Controlled braking Body position,
– allows the feet, legs, and hands to maintain a stable seat position
![Page 13: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Controlling Vehicle BalanceControlling Vehicle Balance
3 Vehicle Balance Types:
– Roll: vehicle moves side to side
– Pitch: vehicle moves forward or
backward
– Yaw: vehicle moves left or right
– Best balance is at rest with no
movement or stationary
![Page 14: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

Seating Position
Adjust the seat height so that the top of the steering wheel is in line with the top of the shoulders.
Proper distance from the steering can be determined by extending the arm straight forward and adjusting the seat until the top of the wheel is in line with the wrist joint.
![Page 19: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

Steering Wheel
Always turn steering wheel in
direction of desired movement
whether moving forward or moving
backward.
![Page 21: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Hand Position
Hand position should be 8
and 4 O’clock
Should be adjusted toward
your chest
The 8 and 4 position also facilitates keeping both hands on the steering wheel and reduces upper and lower back pain
![Page 22: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
4 Types of Steering
Hand to Hand Steering (Push-Pull-Feed)
• Allows minor to more involved steering while keeping both hands on the steering wheel
• Best for maintaining vehicle balance
Hand Over Hand Steering• Effective when steering movement needs to be
made quickly and in limited space.
![Page 23: Section 2 Day 2 Virginia Driver Responsibilities: Preparing to Operate a Vehicle.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022070413/5697bfab1a28abf838c9ab9a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
4 Types of Steering cont…
Limited Evasive Steering– Making a quick turn to perform an evasive
maneuver which causes a quick shift of weight or center of mass to the left or right of the vehicle
One Hand Steering– Only recommended for backing
maneuvers
