As known, many drivers aren’t aware of the scary factors of driving and it’s important that one is always being a safe and educated driver. Drivers ed reduces the number of driving related deaths by informing the people about the dangers of driving and how it can become really unsafe very quickly. Making drivers ed beyond important because some people may feel what they don't know won't hurt them, which is not the case. The steps that can be taken to reduce the number of deaths related to driving are improving road signage, implement better roadway lighting, and redesign bad intersections. I have personally never experienced a car accident but I have seen my family members drive irresponsibly. Engaging in activities like texting, eating, and changing the radio station while driving. The steps that can be taken to be a better and safer driver as well as help others become safer on the road are paying attention to your surroundings, waiting to text someone back at a complete stop, and even being cautious of what’s ahead.
