Keep your speed under the limit and safe for roadway conditions.
Maintain a safe distance - Stay at least 1 car length behind the vehicle in front of you for every 10 miles per hour you are driving.
When turning left, be alert and yield to any oncoming cars.
Look carefully before turning onto a major street from a residential neighborhood, and leave plenty of time to accelerate. This is one of the most common causes of collisions.
Always wear a seatbelt, even if you are just driving down the street for groceries.
When stopped at a red light, pause and look both ways when the light turns green. It only takes a second.
Avoid driving while distracted by another activity. Do not use your cell phone or eat while driving.
