What should you avoid applying while turning your vehicle?

When turning your vehicle, it's important to avoid applying the brakes too hard. Sudden or excessive braking while turning can cause loss of traction, potentially leading to skidding or losing control of the vehicle.

Turning puts the vehicle's weight onto the outer tires, and if brakes are suddenly applied during this process, it can shift the balance in a way that makes it difficult for the tires to maintain grip on the road. Proper technique involves slowing down before entering the turn and then smoothly navigating through it without abrupt braking.

Using the steering wheel is obviously necessary to guide the vehicle, while the gas pedal can help in maintaining a steady speed or accelerating out of the turn. The clutch is specific to manual transmission vehicles, and its use may be appropriate in certain situations but is not directly related to the question of avoiding braking during a turn.
