To make a more responsible and safer driver, a driver can put their phone on silent or airplane mode. They can let their friends and family know that will not answer the phone when they are driving. If they need to answer the phone, they can pull over safely to the side of the road and make the call if they are able to. A driver should keep both hands on the wheel, keep their eyes on the road and be aware of their surroundings. The driver should be comfortable in the car that will allow them to safely and efficiently drive their vehicle. If the driver is not sure that they can operate their vehicle, the driver should not drive. Drivers should leave with more than enough time from their current destination to make it to their new destination to avoid rushing and causing an accident. In addition, the driver should not try to multitask in the vehicle, instead they should focus on getting to their destination.
Fortunately, I have not experienced a car accident. Although, I have seen some of my family members drive irresponsibly and have learned from their mistakes, so I do not repeat the same mistakes they made. There was something to take away from seeing my family members driving incorrectly. There was a new lesson learned each time I was in the vehicle, such as not messing with the radio or eating food while driving. A few things I can do to be a better driver are not getting distracted while driving and limit distractions around me. I can continue to practice safe driving techniques and educate others around me the importance of being a safe driver. I can correctly demonstrate the driving techniques that I have been taught and give tips to new drivers about what situations they can prevent from occurring. I can also provide driving school recommendations to the drivers, so they can get the proper education from a school. Furthermore, they can have the instructors that have more experience with driving, correctly teach them how to be a safer and better driver. I could also provide my assistance to drivers that might have some questions since I have completed driving school. The more people that are more knowledgeable about safe driving, the less possible accidents can occur. Therefore, more people can be educated, and more lives can be saved.
