Safety on the Road: Other Cars

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.

Know where other cars are on the road. My other Grandfather used to cover up the mirror and say how many cars are behind you. If you were wrong, you had to pull over and give up the wheel. It has helped me many times to not be surprised by what was coming up the road.

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.
