TIPS FOR DEFENSE DRIVING
FOLLOW THE
"3-SECOND RULE"
THE GREATEST CHANGE OF A COLLISION IS IN FRONT OF YOU.
MAINTAINING A SAFE OF THREE SECONDS BEHIND THE CAR.
WILL GIVE YOU ENOUGH TIME TO REACT IF THAT CAR IN FRONT OF YOU STOPS SUDDENLY.
SIGNAL YOUR INTENTIONS EARLY
USE TURN SIGNALS
DRIVERS KNOW WHAT ARE YOU GOINT TO DO BEFORE YOU DO IT.
DRIVING TOO FAST GIVES YOU LESS TIME TO REACT.
IF YOU INCREASE YOUR SPEED, YOUR CAR BECOME HARDER TO CONTROL.
IF YOU INCREASE YOUR SPEED, TAKES LONGER TO COME TO A STOP.
PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR SURROUNDINGS
BE AWARE OF WHAT IS HAPPENING ON THE ROAD.
CHECK YOUR REARVIEW AND SIDE VIEW MIRRORS FREQUENTLY
BEFORE CHANGING LANES, ALWAYS LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER

IF YOU ANGRY, CAN AFFECT YOUR OWN DRIVING AND LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.
WHEN OTHER DRIVERS SHOW SIGNS OF AGGRESSIVE DRIVING,
JUST SLOW DOWN
EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED
ASSUME THAT OTHER DRIVERS WILL MAKE MISTAKES.
PLAN AHEAD WHAT YOU WILL DO IF ANOTHER DRIVER BREAKS TRAFFIC LAW
