Most people think they are an expert behind the wheel. It is always the other person who causes the accident.
Even when you are in the right, absolutely blameless, you can be just as dead, and so can the people driving with you. For example there are over 3,000 people killed in vehicle accidents each year, and not all were guilty of bad driving.
Being in the right is not enough to protect you from a vehicle accident. You have to drive DEFENSIVELY - drive so that you won’t be in an accident even if the other driver does the wrong thing.
A DEFENSIVE driver doesn’t care who is right or who is wrong. They just care only about preventing accidents. That no different to any other type of work or leisure activity.
You have to practice safe driving and give your full attention to other drivers every minute you’re behind the wheel.
Learn to spot unsafe acts of other drivers - avoid unsafe acts yourself. That’s defensive driving. If seat belts are fitted, make sure you and your passengers wear them. That’s defensive driving too.
It’s a good rule to drive as though every other driver on the road was completely incompetent. Think that they are going to do something stupid, that they don’t know the road rules, and that they are not paying attention, and that his brakes cannot stop him in time.
In other words, drive safely yourself, and allow for unsafe acts of the other driver. That’s defensive driving.
This course will exposure drivers to the reality and hazards associated to driving.
