Staying Centered in Your Lane When Driving - Judging Your Road Position

Learn how to stop weaving all over the place and stay centered in your lane.

One of the most difficult things for new drivers is to judge where your car is on the road. This is because when you actively start to think about it, it feels like the car is too big for the lane. This is all because of your perspective. The car is not actually too big for the lane. It only feels like it. Nonetheless, it's a huge issue for learner drivers.

Furthermore, the people that are most concerned about staying centered in their lane have the most difficulties with it. Just because of this reason.

So, you need to learn how to judge where your car is so you can effortlessly stay centered in your lane. But how? Jacqueline (the wonderful woman in this video) is a driving instructor, and she has seen many students struggle with this exact problem. She knows all of the common problems students face and how to fix them.

There are mainly two reasons why beginner drivers drift in and out of their lanes:

1- They're not looking at the right place
2- They are not holding the wheel the right way.

So if you're looking to learn about staying centered in your lane - this driving lesson will be perfect for you!

How do you know wether to go left or right on the detour road?

[wagihanas]

Excuse me, I have some difficulty estimating the distance between my car and relatively close objects especially near to the right side of my car. I cannot tell I may hit them or not….. can you suggest a solution like a reference point or so.
Thnx
