Impacts
on Unsafe Driving


Have you or someone you know ever
been in a wreck because of someone not paying proper attention? This
common problem causes a lot people their lives. How do we reduce the
number of deaths? By stronger driver courses. This is very important
for many teenagers will be the majority in these courses. If
teenagers can be safer while driving, then it can be pass along to
all ages. How do we get these teenagers into these courses? One way
is to change the law, by changing laws to make it a requirement that
all teenagers ages 15 to 17 even 14 to take these courses. By getting
teenagers into these courses sooner they will be able to develop
safer habits for the road. Most accidents caused in the US are from
teenage drivers, but most schools do not make it a requirement to
take these courses. Have I ever been in an accident? Yes, I was in an
accident though very minor and no one was hurt, it could have been
avoided if I pay better attention to my surroundings. It made me
think of how irresponsible I was being and think of how little I was
paying attention while driving. Which made me realize that I could
have been involve in a more serious wreck. I could kill myself or
someone else. Since then I’ve been taking steps to better my
driving ability. One way is paying attention to everyone, I was not
paying much attention to everyone on the road and only those in front
of me. Now I pay more attention to everyone all around me. It has
made me a much better driver since. Some other steps I’ve taken to
be a safer driver has been to cut out distractions within my car.
I’ve cut out my phone by not using it and not allowing certain
people in my car. Another way I’ve learn to be a safer driver is to
keep my speed down and not to speed. How has this helped me? It has
kept me from going too fast to not notice people in front of me and
be able to keep an eye on all my surroundings. These ways have
helped me become much safer and better driver. We should all learn
from each other to become better drivers. Its sad how many people
lose their lives to people just not paying attention. If we all learn
to be safer drivers then we all can lower the death rate by cars in
the US, but for that to happen it means everyone needs to be a better
driver.
