If your engine dies as you pull around a corner, the best thing you should do is:

• A. Maintain speed and pull through
• B. Accelerate to restart the engine
• C. Steer to the right side of the road and stop
• D. Turn the steering wheel rapidly

Answer: (C)

When the engine dies while you’re in a turn, you lose power-assisted steering and brakes, so the priority is to regain control and get the vehicle safely stopped. Steer smoothly toward the right side of the road and pull over to a safe location, like the shoulder. Once you’re stopped, turn on your hazard lights and try to restart if you can do so safely. Continuing at speed isn’t safe because you won’t have proper steering or braking, and aggressively revving or turning the wheel rapidly can make you lose control. This approach gives you time to handle the situation with minimal risk.
