Driving Tips to LIVE-BY

  • Keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front. In good conditions, leave a two-second gap. In bad conditions, leave double the distance.
  • At intersections and freeway on/off ramps and merging sections, don’t be pressured into moving before you feel it is safe. Give yourself time to take in the whole scene. As well as other vehicles, watch out for pedestrians and cyclists.
  • Give turn signals in time for others to see and react. Don’t forget to cancel the indicator afterwards. Remember, not everyone uses their turn signals. Watch for these offenders.
  • Look ahead and anticipate, especially in urban areas where things can change quickly. Research shows that older drivers tend to have problems when turning left, entering a major road from a minor one, making U turns and reversing, so take extra care with these people.
  • Before setting out, make sure all mirrors adjusted. Side mirrors are excellent safety features, but remember also to look backward to check the blind spot.
  • Above all, expect the unexpected. Never rely on other road users to do the right thing. Be prepared to make allowances for the mistakes of others.  Watch their head and eyes if possible because they may give you a clue that this person is about to do something.

If the weather is tell you think you to think again!

Maybe you should… THINK AGAIN
