Safe Driving Tips 2 |
||
|
Don't talk on the phone: People who talk on cell phones while driving are much more likely to have accidents as a result of distraction. If you must use your cell phone when you drive, use a hands-free device. But if the conversation is complicated or emotional, pull off the road to a safe location to talk.
Don't eat or drink while driving: There are two problems with eating. First, it keeps you from using both hands. Second, you lose your ability to focus. Don't smoke: Like eating and using your cell phone, smoking limits your movement and thus your ability to operate a vehicle. Don't keep loose objects in your car: A messy car can make for a messy accident. Other objects could slide or roll under your brake pedal. Don't tailgate: Always stay at least one car length behind the vehicle in front of you. While driving, you should be able to see the back tires of the car in front of you. Don't assume that trucks drive like cars: It's never a good idea to cut in front of any vehicle, but when it's a truck, you're running a serious risk. Don't play loud music: Driving requires the use of your ears as well as your eyes. You should be able to hear the other cars and the traffic, especially sirens. With loud music on, you deprive yourself of a critical tool. |

Driving Practice
Leave early, plan to arrive 10 minutes before the appointed time. Speeding does not increase your ability to arrive on time, rather it only increases your chances of not arriving at all. |
