Comment

If you drive on the motorway in a strong crosswind from the right, the crosswind constantly pushes the car to the left. You have to countersteer to the right to stay in the lane. If you overtake a truck, expect that the pressure from the crosswind is gone immediately as you enter the slipstream of the truck. If you continue to countersteer, there is a risk that you drive against the truck. Since the crosswind comes from the right, the front vehicle could be pushed to the left.
