I found an article from Cracked.com that looked at driving tips. It has what they called “6 little known tips” that saved lives. I figured it was worth spending time this month looking at these 6 and what other ones I thought needed to be added.
Drive with your headlights on. Many modern cars have made this easier. I appreciate that my car actually turns off it’s lights because I often forget and I remember being awed as a child by a local businessman who just walked away with his lights on and said “It takes care of it” when I pointed it out. The real benefit is it makes you easier to see. It is something that motorcyclists have done for years.
Beyond my usual trio of seatbelts, no drinking/texting and driving, and slow down, my hope is that these tips will teach my readers in the same way it has taught me. Most of all, I hope it helps make the roads safer.
