Drifting
| Probability = 50% |
Drifting is a straight-like
movement of the vehicle at a slight angle to the roadway. As the driver
approaches a marker or boundary (lane marker, center line, edge of the
roadway), the direction of drift might change. As shown in the
illustration,
the vehicle drifts across the lane marker into another lane, then the
driver
makes a correction and the vehicle drifts back across the lane marker.
Drifting might be observed within:
- a single lane,
- across lanes,
- across the center lane,
- onto the shoulder,
from lane to lane.
