  anything related to drivers and other road users
  that may contribute to a collision. Examples
  include driver behavior, visual and auditory
  acuity, decision-making ability, and reaction
  speed.

  of hours driving might increase the risk of an
  accident.

Distraction

• Research suggests that the driver's attention is
  affected by distracting sounds such as
  conversations and Operating a mobile phone while
  driving . Many jurisdictions now restrict or
  outlaw the use of some types of phone within the
  car. Recent research conducted by British
  scientists suggests that music can also have an
  effect.

Motor vehicle speed

• The evidence shows the risk of having a crash is
  increased both for vehicles traveling slower than
  the average speed, and for those traveling above
  the average speed.
• The risk of being injured increases exponentially
  with speeds much faster than the medium speed.
• Most crashes related to speed involve speed too
  fast for the conditions.
• More research is needed to determine the
  effectiveness of traffic calming.

Physical impairment

• Poor Eyesight  and physical impairment, with many

  requiring appropriate vehicle modifications
  before being allowed to drive.

Avoidance

• A collision avoidance system also known as a
  pre-crash system, forward collision warning
  system, or collision mitigation system, is
  an advanced driver-assistance system designed to
  prevent or reduce the severity of a collision.
  ... Pedestrian detection can also be a feature of
  these types of systems.

Pull into traffic slowly

•  Stop, Look, Listen. Be aware of blind spots,
  including those in rear view mirrors and behind
  windshield pillars or highway road signs. Also,
  when at an intersection making a right-hand turn,
  look both directions at least twice before
  proceeding. Vehicles can appear almost out of
  nowhere very quickly, so exercise caution when
  pulling into a busy intersection.

Look backwards when backing out

•  Fender benders in parking lots are all too
  common, so look out for cars leaving parking
  spaces. Don't depend on mirrors alone --
  physically look over your right shoulder while
  steering to alleviate blind spots mirrors can
  create.

Watch for red light runners

•  Count to three before entering an intersection
  on a green light. Look both ways and be sure no
  one is trying to speed through a yellow light.
  Exercise caution when passing semis. Truck
  drivers have a large blind spot on their
  right-hand side, so be especially careful when
  driving next to an 18-wheeler. If you cannot see
  the truck's side mirrors, the truck driver cannot
  see you.

22
Do not Tailgate

•  Leave a three-second cushion between you and the
  car in front of you and begin your journey early
  enough so you don't speed to make up time. As
  tempting as it may be when in a hurry, tailgating
  is a major cause of accidents.
