The Perfect 10 Driving Tips
- Be alert at all times while making a variety of maneuvers.
- Be adept at speeding up, slowing down, changing lanes, turning and stopping under varying conditions.
- Be aware of other motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, road signs, road hazards and road and weather conditions.
- Exercise good driving judgment at all times so that decisions are timely and sound.
- Pay attention your body, don't take the wheel if you are tired or feeling sick and NEVER, EVER take the wheel if impaired by drugs, legal, illegal or over the counter, or alcohol.
- Manage your driving environment -- this includes your passengers -- to minimize unnecessary distractions and devote your full attention to the task at hand.
- Maintain the appropriate driving attitude -- don't be aggressive, emotionally distracted, or rushed when you take the wheel. The wrong attitude can be devastating.
- Maintain your vehicle. You wouldn't leave the house without brushing your teeth, that's personal hygiene. Adopt an attitude of good vehicle "hygiene" keep your car clean, fueled, and check things like tire inflation, light operation, fluid levels and investigate promptly any unusual sounds or warning signals -- it's your car's way of telling you something's unsafe.
- Practice defensive driving. Defensive driving simply means anticipating danger to avoid accidents.
- Make sure you and your passengers ALWAYS wear your seatbelts. Take a moment to check, it could save lives.
