Drivers are just realizing how a three-step ‘turning tip’ helps rescue stuck cars from ditches

A CAR expert has shown how easy it is to get a partially stuck car out of a ditch without damaging its undercarriage.

The auto enthusiast revealed how to complete his maneuver using his vehicle’s steering wheel, gear shifter, emergency brake, and gas pedal in a TikTok broadcast to his 2.6million followers.

Cong’s (@conggeshuoche) TikTok clip began with three men unsuccessfully trying to push a car’s stuck front-right wheel out of a ditch.

This gearhead interjected and explained to the three people that they can start to free their vehicle by turning its steering wheel in the direction of the stuck tire.

Next, Cong shifted into reverse gear and explained that they must press and hold the gas pedal until the car’s revolutions per minute (RPM) meter reached 2,000.

RPM measures how fast a vehicle is operating at a given time.

Cong explained that releasing the emergency brake when the RPM meter reaches 2,000 will result in the car jolting backward with enough force to free the wheel from its ditch.

One viewer commented on Cong’s TikTok driving tutorial: “Bro risked his car for a video.”

A second viewer wrote: “Today I learnt rev = revolution,” followed by a shocked emoji face.

Another TikTok user said: “I learned this in GTA [Grand Theft Auto].

But ditches aren’t the only time drivers should turn their steering wheel toward trouble to ironically avoid disaster.

Drivers who lose control of their vehicle will benefit from turning into their skid and laying off their accelerator.

Braking while skidding will worsen any sliding.
