How can we drive safely ?

Written by : Eric

Do you like driving a car? We need a car in California. I don't have a car, so I feel stuck in your room. How can I get an agreement from my father buying a car? I explained many reasons why I need a car to my father. However, he always says I don't need a car now. I thought the reason that my father doesn’t allow me to buy a car is too dangerous. Because of danger, I thought about how we can drive more safely. In order to drive more safely, follow these steps.

First, we must fasten our seatbelt. If you fasten your seatbelt when you have a traffic accident, you are safer than without seatbelt. Almost all reason that people die when they get accident is fastening seatbelt. Before you start driving, fasten your seatbelt!

Second, keep the speed limit. Keeping the speed limit is important. It is too dangerous to drive too fast. Even though you drive well and faster than speed limit, you arrive at destination 5 minutes faster. Driving over speed is the faster way to die. Driving too fast is suicidal. Whenever you should be in hurry, don’t drive too fast.

Third, keep a safe distance away. When you keep a safe distance, even if some problems happen in front of you, you can stop or avoid them. You don’t know what are going to happen.

Next, always keep close watch such as forward, backward, lest side, and right side. Also, keep close watch about situations, pedestrians, and animals. I think that pedestrians are the most important among those things above. We cannot see every direction when we drive. There are some spaces we cannot see. That’s why we have to keep close watch. In addition, when you turn a corner or drive in the countryside, you should always be careful.

Then, traffic signals are the most important promise. If you don't follow traffic signals, there is a heavy traffic jam and accident. Also, there will be an accident, if you don’t follow. You have to understand all kinds of traffic signals include the direction board.

Finally, we should do no drunk driving and no drowsy driving. Driving while drowsy or drunk can cause a severe traffic accident because you can't see clearly. It is a shorter way to death.

Every step is important. If you don’t follow one of these things, you can put you in grave situation. In short, if you follow these directions, you can drive more safely.
