"IN" at the end of the sentence?

Hello

1 When riding double on a moped, the person behind needs to turn his body in the direction that the driver is turning (in) so as not to produce a counterweight by turning your body in the opposite direction.
2 When riding double on a moped, the person behind needs to turn his body in the direction in which the driver is turning.

How come in the first sentence the IN at the end of the sentence, in my opinion doesn't need to be there and in the second sentence there are 2 INs?

and can you use "so as to" like this?

Thank you
