Describe the procedures for safe off-road recovery.

What will be an ideal response?


When you plan to leave the road, slow down as much as possible. Brake, and keep one set of tires on the pavement, if possible. Turn as little as possible on the roadside and maintain as straight a course as possible. Do not try to return to the highway too quickly. Stay on the roadside and allow the engine compression to stop the rig. Put on the brakes only when you have slowed enough to stop safely. Signal and check your mirrors before returning to the highway.
