Question

Wearing seat belts(安全带) is,of course,the first step to safe driving.These following measures might also save your life.

Count to three.Keeping up enough space between your car and others is certainly necessary.Jim Clark,a California driving instructor,suggests a following distance of at least three seconds.To figure this,pick an object on the roadside ahead.When the car in front of you passes it,start counting one-thousand-one,one-thousand-two,one-thousand-three.If you get to that object before you reach one-thousand-three,you don’t have three seconds of following time—time needed to keep away from accidents.

Let followers pass.“If someone’s driving after you,get out of his way.”Clark advises.“You’re better of being safe than right.”

Expect the worst.In a study,the Federal Highway Administration(联邦公路局) found that 68 percent of drivers do not come to a complete stop at stop signs.When you’re driving and see someone come near to a stop sign,don’t be too sure that the person is going to stop.And when you stop at a crossing and another car comes near with its turning light on,don’t take it true that the driver will turn.Instead,wait until he turns.He may have had the light on for miles.

Stay outside.In the busy traffic,drive in either the outside-left or outside-right lane(车道).As traffic expert Francis Kenel says,that allows you somewhere to go if a problem develops.
