Safe Driving
- Be courteous, friendly and help other road users
- Make sure everyone in the car is properly buckled up
- Don't rush, keep within the speed limit
- Start a long trip after a good night's sleep and don't travel at times you would normally be sleeping
- Take a break every two hours on a long trip
- If you plan to drink, don't plan to drive - catch a cab or travel with a non-drinking driver
- Always set a good example for young children by wearing your helmet when cycling
- Check your car's tyres and brakes regularly
- Always use your indicator well before you change lanes or turn
- If you find yourself driving along a road directly into the sun, pull over and wait whenever you are able; if you must continue driving, reduce your speed, use your sun visor and scan carefully for other road users (especially pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists).
