Something to practise
Take enough time to read a new position. If a game has a timer, learn its controls first rather than searching for them during the round. Notice the feedback after each input.

Work through the instructions

Keyboard and screen controls
Pointer, arrow keys or held Left/Right. Start / pause and New round are available. On a smaller screen, keep the active part of the board within view. Look at the feedback after the action.
See how the rules apply
Choose an empty lane early rather than passing through a car. Compare this with the rule that governs the move. Look for the relevant detail.
A mistake to avoid
This is arcade avoidance, not 3D vehicle simulation. Compare the situation with the worked example. Locate the buttons and input area before beginning a long round. Use the on-screen labels to avoid an accidental restart.
