What is the control rating for coasting around turns?

Coasting around turns is deemed to have a "Bad" control rating because it signifies a lack of active steering and braking control when maneuvering through a curve. When a driver coasts, it typically means they are allowing the vehicle to glide without applying the necessary inputs to maintain optimum control. This can lead to a number of unsafe scenarios, such as reduced traction and the inability to effectively respond to sudden changes in road conditions or obstacles in the path.

Effective turning requires a driver to manage speed and steering inputs actively to ensure stability and grip. By coasting, the vehicle may not be positioned correctly for the turn, leading to potential understeering or oversteering situations. This control rating is vital because it highlights the importance of maintaining appropriate engagement with the vehicle’s controls to ensure safe navigation around turns.
