Best Choice tips for a safe driving trip

Drivers ed involves a group of students from different age groups participating in drivers ed classes in order to not only learn how to be prepared for the final drivers test at the motor vehicle administration. However, drivers ed takes pivotal roles through educating students to be safe drivers on the roadway through various lesson plans that span over the course of a couple weeks. These lessons serve to engrain critical information into students brains on how to be safer drivers for themselves and everyone else who is driving on the roadway.

The importance of drivers ed and the lessons it provides will help reduce the number of deaths on the roadway. For example a specific lesson that drivers ed emphasizes to be important on the roadway is the “signs” lesson. Stop signs, yield signs, signs on the interstate, neighborhood signs, signs near schools etc. The various types of signs mentioned ceases the confusion for drivers and ensures that all drivers are being safe. So, that all drivers get from point A to point B in the safest route possible. Steps to reduce the number of deaths related to driving is for students to generate a vivid acronym they will remember and that will make sense for students to avoid behavior that may cause a fatality on the roadway. For example my acronym is my first name Kevin. The steps I take are, K- keep, E- everything, V-valid, I-inside, N-namely. I noticed that the main causes of deaths for drivers is that they do not take the necessary precautions to ensure that when they get inside a vehicle that all distractions is out of view from drivers concentration on the roadway.

The acronym above ensures that when I enter my vehicle. I know that I will have all necessary items to ensure a safe trip to wherever I am going. Necessary items include driver’s license, insurance card, tools just in case my vehicle vehicle breaks down on the road, a bottle of oil. These examples here that I practice are a milestone different from the daily practices that most irresponsible drivers practice today. Since, most irresponsible drivers keep cellphones operating which is a distraction, irresponsible drivers text and drive which is a distraction, irresponsible drivers drink and drive which distorts their cognitive capabilities on the roadway which leads to a significant increase in deaths.

Since, I follow a strict acronym regimen everyday based on my first name I have never been into a car accident before. However, the boldness of my first name allows for me to not only ensure that Kevin will be safe on the roadway. More importantly, the acronym that I created allows for me to start a mental checklist in my brain. So, I know that every time I enter my vehicle I will repeat the same steps as my acronym. So, that Kevin and all drivers are safe on the roadway.
