Safety Driving is the Key

The importance of driving education is to help the driver understand that you are in control of your actions. Any little distraction can not only put you at risk but also others. It helps students prepare and learn about the basic and knowledgeable facts about driving. Providing useful information before driving.

The steps that can be taken to reduce the numbers of death is to be cautious of your surroundings. Making sure everything is in order before starting and proceeding to drive,  which is adjusting your mirrors and putting your seatbelt on. When you notice there is a problem with your car make sure you put your caution lights on and pull over to the side. 

I have been in a car accident twice the first me was when I was younger my family and I was on our way home I was taking a nap until i was awoken by a jolt and a loud noise I didn’t understand what was happening until I got out of the car and saw what happen, my dad said the other driver was trying to get into the lane without putting the turn signal on. The second car accident I was in high school on the bus. We were just on our way to school as usual and this car came driving past the bus trying to get in front but instead the classmate’s car collided with the bus.

The steps I can take to be a better and safer driver is to be aware of my surroundings. Whenever I need to check up on anything always make sure no cars are coming or pull off on the side on the road. This includes checking the phone or changing station to make sure it has done before you start driving. When driving, always put a safe distance between you and the car in front of you. During bad weather always make sure you go the speed limit or less depending on how bad the weather is. Check on your tires and always have a spare tire in the back with jumper cables just in case. Turn on your light always during the night time, when it’s raining also. When it’s foggy on, turn on the low beams not high because it may cause a blinding light to other drivers in the opposite lane. Always have your mirrors checked and seat belt on and properly. Always come to a complete stop and look both ways if pedestrians are walking or a car is walking by and also, make sure to use your turn signals. If a person is walking on the side of the road slow down and yield around them. When you start driving just focus on what you’re doing and remember you are in control of the vehicle and what you do is what the car is going to do. It’s mostly mental but you can do it. There will be mistakes but you will get better each time when driving.
