Rule 7: Avoid Distractions!
When we presume our driving duties, the most significant one is that we are accountable for all the involved actions and the results that follow. In every collision or accident, person in driving seat is most responsible; it is their indifferent nature towards surrounding situations that cause irreparable damage. Lame excuses such as, “I haven’t seen him”, and “It is not my fault” are common and numerous. But the question is why don’t they see others? It is only because of their diverted attention collision or opportunity of accident can easily be avoided by concentrating on their duties. So, it is better to stay focused before risking anyone’s life.
It has been seen that eating, drinking or conversing on mobile, changing CD disk, dealing with the disobedient child are most common reasons for road accidents. Drivers should be careful about driving speed (means where it has to be slowed down), signals and road intersections at the time of diversions which will undoubtedly reduce the chances of collisions or accidents.
It is the driver who can make the road safer for himself or herself by maintaining the driving rules and focusing on one particular duty. Don’t let other insignificant matters distract your attention which will help you minimize or avoid accidents.
