There is a special caste of drivers - lovers of an extreme ride, but for most residents of megacols, the movement of off-road is a real stress. Testing for strength, both machines and character. Naturally, difficult road conditions should be prepared in advance if you have a trip for the city, by a bad road, or the weather conditions unexpectedly worsened.

Your car should always be ready for any road conditions: tires place in accordance with the season and weather. In the trunk, you must have a jack, a cable, anti-slip chains, a shovel, an ax or a saw. It also does not hurt the stock of water.

Quite often, drivers have to deal with soil stony roads. In such sites, it is important to comply with high-speed mode, as well as keep a significant distance from other cars. The stone flying from under the wheels can completely break the windshield. If the stones on the road are large, then they need to go around so that they do not fall under the bottom of the car. If there are too much stones and it is impossible to drive around, try not to skip them under the wheels, but move right on them. It is more likely to damage not the units installed under the bottom of the car or the wheels themselves - since their side parts are much vulnerable tread.

The same primer, which you easily drove the halter, can turn into an impassible swamp after the protracted rains. Clay and earth, splashing, become piety, deep ruts are formed on the road, and it becomes extremely difficult for travel. This road should be either going around, or overcome on reduced transmission - exactly, without sharp movements, not gas and not braking. King skip between the wheels. If you still stripped in a ripple, and the car snapped, it is better to immediately use the services of a tractor. If there is no such possibility, then use arsenal, seized in the trunk - lift the car on the jack, put the cuttered branches and bits under the wheels, boards or rubber mats from cars.

Another common phenomenon on Russian roads is snow and ice. In order to get into the snow skid, even from the city is not necessary. Particularly dangerous areas with loose wet snow, which hides under him the ice or substachable snowy "porridge". In addition, wet snow sticks to the bottom of the car, reduces its clearance, and then, falling off, becomes also an additional obstacle. In overcoming these obstacles, anti-slip chains will help you on the wheels. Also, keep smooth high-speed mode, not to make sharp driving movements in order to avoid driving, especially attentive be in the descents and shorts reamed by snow. Keep the steering wheel as if possible - because if you put the wheels with sideways, then the area that will rest in the snow will increase.

Sometimes you have to face the overcoming of the water barrier - after long rains, spring floods, even small streams turn into violent robes. Such obstacles are made in themselves danger - on the bottom there can be sharp stones that can be easily damaged both wheels and aggregates under the bottom of the car, and water can fall inside the car, pour the salon and the hood along with all the contents. The greatest danger, if the water level will be above the air intake - in this case, the river forcing is better to postpone - otherwise you have every chance to get stuck in the middle. Before rushing into the pool, do not be lazy to go through the obstacle on foot, or at least check the depth of the stick. You need to overcome the aqueous space at one speed, quickly, clearly, neatly. After you got into land, several times sharply slow down - so you dry the brake pads.

Sand roads come across Russian drivers not so often as ground, but if such a plot still met you on the way, turn on the reduced gear in advance. You can slide a slightly pressure in the wheels to increase the clutch with the road. Avoid gates, since in it the sand is already loose, and you have a big chance of "grief". Move smoothly, at one speed, without making sudden driving movements. The movement in the sand is similar to the movement in the snow - do not gas themselves sharply, if you feel that the car started to bury up, on the contrary, it is necessary to slow down a little to increase the grip of the wheels with the road. If you failed to cope, and the car Zabuxed, stop, every movement of the wheels, and you buried deeper. Get out of the car, dig the wheels and put on them mats, boards or other materials that you will succeed. And try to go to the hard road along the shortest path.
Off-road many people, unites them one - under the wheels there can be anything, except asphalt - clay and dirt, snow and ice, stones, water or sand. The main rule for the driver is to overcome the complex areas of the road confidently and does not hurry. Of course, it is necessary to reasonably evaluate the strength and opportunities - their own and car.
