6 simple driving tips to keep accidents at bay

INTRODUCTION
You cannot predict an accident they can happen
anywhere, anytime but you can take steps to
reduce the likelihood of one. The following tips
will help you stay safe on the roads
3
Focus on the road
This is the most obvious point of all. Always
keep your eyes on the road when driving and avoid
distractions. Remember, the car is not the place
for multi-tasking so stay focussed on the road.
4
AVOID USING MOBILE PHONES
Mobile phones are distractions and are often the
cause of accidents. If you must use your phone,
use the hands-free function, but please note that
this isnt entirely safe either. Better to put
the phone away completely and concentrate on the
road.
5
STAY WITHIN THE SPEED LIMIT
Different roads have different speed limits for a
reason. You should drive the local roads at the
same speed as you would the motorway! Respect the
speed limit and you help to reduce the chances of
an accident.
6
DONT DRINK AND DRIVE
Driving under the influence of alcohol is one of
the major causes of accidents. DO NOT DRINK AND
DRIVE. It is a serious crime with potentially
life-changing consequences.
7
Report aggressive drivers
If you encounter an aggressive driver on the road
it is best to take safe evasive measures. For
example, slow down to the side of the road if
possible. If you can, note the drivers
registration number and report them to the
authorities. Aggressive and dangerous drivers are
one of the main causes of accidents.
8
DRIVE BY THE RULES
Last, but not least always follow the rules of
the road. If you are approaching a red light,
slow down with plenty of time to stop. Give way
to traffic when you are supposed to. Breaking the
rules for the sake of your own convenience can
cause accidents which would have otherwise been
easily avoided. BE SENSIBLE AND STAY SAFE!
