Unless You're Wearing A Badge My Driving Is My Own Business
Well, they say learning to drive should result in you becoming a good driver. How well you end up driving is a good question. It all depends. Most people learn to operate a motor vehicle, also known as driving, without the help of professionals. Sound advice is that a spouse should never be your driving instructor. However, teens realize driving is their first taste of real freedom. Thus, it is common for this learning curve and skill to be accomplished in the early years.
"Rules of the Road" is the name driving manuals come to be known by. It is the bible of the driver both young and old. At first, such instructions as: "driver on the right yield right of way to driver on the left" make no sense. At an all way stop intersection if the other driver is on your right he/she should go first is what they mean.
Speeding on public highways isn't legal but today it is more complex than it used to be. There are general speed restrictions and specific speed limits. Nobody can drive so slow that they hold up the normal flow of traffic. Other factors cause more crashes than speeding but death comes to visit at least eight times more often in crashes at high speed. Going a mile a minute or higher gets you there but tosses into the mix some bad probability.
New drivers are especially at risk. They haven't acquired the skills and reflexes needed for the long haul of a lifetime of driving. A disproportionate number of accidents are caused by them. Every generation has had to bury certain of their numbers.
Having paid attention in science classes in school will keep you in touch with the forces a heavy vehicle traveling at high speed is subject to. Centrifugal force, for instance, experienced going around a curve requires the driver to enter the curve and then speed up getting out of it. This will be uncomfortable at first but then become second nature.
When you pick up a magazine written for car enthusiasts one of the first things mentioned for each model is acceleration. Much more important to the novice driver is stopping ability. "What goes up must come down" used to always be true. Much more the case is if you can't stop it you may have had your next to last ride. The hearse is last.
Air bags, seat belts, steering columns that collapse and don't impale drivers have all added to driving safety. However, the biggest safety feature in highway travel has always been the driver. Recently use of cell phone and even texting while driving has created the so-called perfect storm.
Yes, learning to drive is about a whole lot more than just operating a motor vehicle. It is the beginning of trust with an expensive asset of the family and the potential to be on your own. Actually it is not alone at all. It is sharing a public road with women and babies and trucks and buses carrying commerce and people to keep the nation running. - 21396
