As an example of the driver’s art in the subtle use of reins and brake, here is the procedure for making a right turn. The team has been trotting along brickly, each horse feeling the freedom of movement in their loosely hitched harness. A cross road is coming up into which the jehu wishes to make a right turn. From 75 to 100 yards before reaching the corner he begins working the reins through his fingers, adjusting each line in relation to the others just as it should be at the exact time of making the turn.
