Good Habits

1
Many people have many types of habits which are
both good, and detrimental.
2
By maintaining good driving habits such as
staying calm when under stress can help drivers
through tough times on the road.
3
Many people question if habits can really affect
their driving such as improving it.
4
I would like to explain how a few common healthy
driving habits can help you improve your everyday
driving which makes the roads safe for yourself,
your passengers, other drivers, and pedestrians.
5
These habits include wearing your seat belt,
keeping distractions to a minimum, and having a
positive attitude.
6
While a great deal of drivers perform these
actions like a second nature there is still a
high enough portion of drivers that do not follow
these simple safety tips while driving.
7
As a favor to society I would like to discuss
some beneficial habits to improve the way people
drive.
8
The first good habit is to try and keep a
positive attitude while behind the wheel.
9
A negative attitude can cause road rage and
possibly a collision.
10
If you are having a bad day, try to avoid
driving, if your destination is close, maybe try
walking instead to release some stress.
11
An angry driver on the road can be very dangerous.
12
Some people that get road rage let their emotions
take over while driving.
13
Usually they wont realize they made a mistake
until it is too late.
14
Next good habit is wearing your seat belt it is
against the law if you are not wearing your seat
belt in a moving vehicle.
15
The fact is a lot of drivers still do no wear
their seat belts on the road, based on the
information from CDC.gov.
16
Seat belt related accidents are one of the
leading causes of death.
17
More than two million people were taken to the
emergency room simply because they were not
wearing their seat belt during a collision.
18
These numbers could be significantly lowered if
more people wore their seat belts.
19
Another good habit is to avoid texting while
driving.
20
This includes answering phone calls or using any
electronic device at all.
21
Try to plan your route and drive ahead of time.
22
Most drivers are always in a rush to get to
places, usually causing traffic jams because
everyone is trying to get in front of each other.
23
It is best to plan a route beforehand to avoid
any unnecessary traffic.
24
These habits may seem simple, but they can impact
how a person drives tremendously.
