2020 Drivers Education

Driver’s educations plays a huge importance when it comes to reducing the number of deaths. Studies actually show that teens that do take drivers education are more likely to not be involved in car crashes during those first two years that the driver will be driving. It is even known and a proven fact that crashes are most likely to happen at the ages of 16-18. This is why you should really take consideration into driver’s education program and what they do and how much of a difference it can make. Especially if you have a kid barely starting to drive and you cannot always be there holding their hand so know that they are extremely good hands if they have gone through the Drivers Ed.

There are many steps that can be taken to reduce the number of deaths related to driving. For example a lot of the crashes or wrecks that do occur are most likely because someone is not paying attention as they should be. I highly believe that phones should not be able to function during a car unless it is for an emergency. Many people keep their eyes off of the road because of their phone. As well as drinking and driving you should always have to take a sobriety test as if you were on probation to drive. You are not only putting yourself in danger but other people’s loves as well.

One major experience I have has is being in a car crash with me and my family. We were on our way back from the movies and a drunk driver crashed into us. I thank god every day that me and my family all got to walk away from that night alive. This is why I try my best to make it well known to not drink and drive. If you feel like you can drive it is just better to not drive at all you are not just putting yourself in harm’s way but others as well.

Some steps that can be taken to be a better and safer driver is to always keep your eyes on the road and always pay attention. Do not answer or be on your phone and if you absolutely have to make sure you pull over on the side of the road and do what you need to do. Always wear your seatbelt as well you can never be too sure and you can never know when another person has crash into you without it being your fault.
