      I noticed when I was driving straight after I got licence, in my family's CRV I would tend to be too far to the left of the lane, so now I kinda just drive more to the right then I feel is normal, but it turns out to be in the centre Laughing

      haha no la.. right now i make sure the road markings is in line with the corner of the A pillar of the car while i drive. but at highspeeds its a little distracting to keep on checking the line alignment. thus wanna see how you guys do that

      2 ways to centralise your car in the lane..

      1. See your ERP device in yr car.. keep the ERP device inside the lane but near to the right line or the lane.. the car will fall perfectly centre in the lane..

      2. use side mirror.. ..see both side mirrors.. and be sure thelength of the (side of the car to the line on the floor) is equal on both side.. that will do the job..

      Haha nah, for some reason I had tendency to make my driving position (where I'm sitting) in the centre of the lane, and hence my car was too far to the left. But I corrected it Smile

      Concentrate, try to look far, dun always look at yr hand on the steering, dun talk while driving. Relax n dun hold too tight. steering may not be center, wheel alignment out- mostly towards left side.
