What would a lightness in the steering MOST likely indicate?
- A Gravelled surface.
- B Icy surface.
- C Smooth surface.
- D Wet surface.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: Icy surface..
Lightness in steering indicates a loss of traction. This generally happens when the road surface is icy. Ice provides a harder; smoother surface than rain; or snow so it is difficult to avoid skidding and drivers should allow up to 10 times the normal braking distance in order to stop safely.
