traffic report by the World Health Organization (WHO) has recorded that there are about 1.2 million people killed on road accidents annually. And more than half of the total roadaccidents that occur are with drivers ages between fifteen and forty-four, and 73% of them are male drivers.
So for an active and impulsive drivers – the below are tips for safe driving:
  • First check your car or vehicle to make sure it is ready for hot and rainy weather.
  • Get a tune-up and make sure the wipers work and the tires are in good condition.

  • Make sure the wind shield is clear – inside and out.
  • Be well rested before setting off on journey.
  • Be sure to sit-up straight.
  • Adjust your seat so that you are able to press the pedals firmly.

  • Be sure rear view mirrors are set correctly.
  • Keep your eyes moving ahead, to the mirrors, to the sides. They will give you advance warning of potential emergencies.

  • Watch the car ahead of you and the car ahead of that one to give yourself extra time to stop.
  • Learn to anticipate potential accidents.
  • Use your horn whenever you are not sure the other fellow driver sees you.
