What is instinctive driving?
Instinctive driving is what we use everyday of our lives when driving to and from work on a daily basis. You don’t look and think about changing and selecting gears because it happens instinctively. When driving a 4 wheel drive vehicle, you cannot rely on instinctive driving – you have to think about what you’re doing and also think about which gear to select and when and how to apply brakes and when to accelerate.
