Driving techniques

[Philthy]

I just found this in my hours of aimless surfing, and thought it would be useful to a few here, as none of this is covered at any stage of license testing
Braking techniques guide

Feel free to post up any other 'advanced' driving tips

Sit on the speed limit. Don't back off, go faster, back off, go faster.

Use the right hand lane for over taking only.

If you are talking track, I really couldn't say.

I like what you said about the license test. They should put people on an auto cross to show people what it is like to spin out and all the other advances in driving. Not send them out into the streets because they can turn the steering wheel or change gears correctly.

We used to use cadence braking for Emergency Driving in F100s--works a charm and modifying it for normal driving means gentle pressure on an off as you approach a stopping point means you don't have to brake hard, e.g. coming up to lights. Makes you pads and rotors last that little bit longer.
