Ford invented the automobile so people can get to their destination
faster and easier. Although driving places can be so easy but it also
can be very dangerous so having a drivers ed is very
important. The purpose of having a drivers ed is to provide
you with knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed for vehicle safety
both as a driver and as a pedestrian. Study shows more than 150,000
teen drivers over the past eight years have found that driver’s
education reduces crashes and traffic violations among new drivers.
People who haven’t completed drivers ed are 75 percent more
likely to get a ticket and 24 percent more likely to be involved in a
fatal or injury accident. So having a drivers ed is very
important to reduce the numbers of deaths as a result of driving.
Some
steps to help reduce the number of deaths resulting in driving is
having a drivers ed this step should be the first step having
a drivers ed . Having a drivers ed will help you
learn more about the road. For example, you can learn about what
road signs, how to read speed limits , who have the right away and
etc. Another step to reduce the number of deaths is to not be
distracted and focus on the road by putting the phone down, reduce
the number of people you allow to get in your car especially if your
a new driver, for girls don’t do your makeup while your driving if
you feel the need to do so then simply pull over, and finally for
boys do not try to show off with your car by speed racing. The final
step to reduce the number of deaths is to be a defensive driver on
the road if you don’t know how there are online classes you can take
to learn how to be a defensive driver.
My
older cousin go into a really bad car accident where she was waiting
for the red light to turn green in the middle of the night , then out
of no where this big truck ran full speed into her car , think God my
cousin was okay but she did had to go to surgery. The truck driver
was driving irresponsible because he wasn’t looking at where he was
going he was either sleepy or looking on his phone. There was another
incident where my father was a teenager where he was going full speed
on this sharp turn and his car flip over three times , nobody stop to
check up on him until this old lady came to see if he was still alive
and called 911, he did make it through but he was pretty scratch up.
My father was driving irresponsible because he was driving too fast.
Some
steps i can take to better myself is to be a defensive driver, pay
attention to the road always pay attention to other people on the
road for example if you see someone driving crazy can simpling not
drive next to them so nothing wont happen to you. Also have
confidence because being nervous on the road can increase your chance
of getting into a car accident.
