Exercise patience with other road users, recognizing that not everyone adheres strictly to the rules. Strive to remain calm and tolerant, even in challenging situations. For example, if a vehicle pulls out in front of you at a junction, slow down and refrain from becoming frustrated.
Self-reflection: Recall a time when driving provoked impatience or anger. How did you respond? Did you contemplate engaging in risky behavior? Consider the potential impact on your loved ones if your actions led to a serious incident. Is it worth taking such risks?
Only utilize your horn in situations of imminent danger when you need to alert others to your presence. Avoid honking out of impatience.
During nighttime driving, avoid dazzling other drivers. Dip your headlights when:
- Following another vehicle
- Approaching an oncoming vehicle
When queuing in traffic at night, engage your parking brake (handbrake) instead of keeping your foot on the brake pedal, as this could cause glare for drivers behind you.
