The simple things are the things you might not pick up on if you don’t learn them in drivers ed. Today in this day technology is a big issue leading to distractions. Also on this day a lot of people run late to things and now speeding rates are rising, this means there is a lot of reckless driving. There are mixes of young and old drivers that are considered to be the more dangerous drivers. Traffic accidents are from more reckless drivers and people failing to yield at yield signs or using stop signs as yield signs. My family is guilty of using their phones while driving, especially my brothers who are on social media; they believe they can text without looking but really every few seconds they look down just to proofread what they are reading. There have been some cases where they swerve a bit becasue they start truing the wheel without realizing it and it can be scary for those in the passenger seat. Even if you are the best and safest driver in the world you can not protect yourself from distracted drivers around you. Some ways you can be safer are to replace your olf windshield wipers, give space to vehicles ball around you, try not to use cruise when your driving, if you are hydroplaning do not hit the gas or hit the brakes, just let off the gas and slowly press the brake so you don’t slide more. Don’t take advantage of the technology that the car has such as maps or BlueTooth while you are driving, you should at least wait until you are at a stop to touch anything.
