Here are ways to increase your safety
in
city driving:
Freeway
Driving
Treat
a
green light as a warning signal.
A
traffic light
is there because the corner is busy enough
to
need it.
When a light turns green, and just before you start to
move, check both ways for vehicles that have not
cleared the intersection or may be running the red
light.
Mile for mile, freeways (also called thruways, parkways,
expressways, turnpikes, or superhighways) are the safest
of all roads. But they have their own special rules.
The most important advice on freeway driving
is:
Keep
up
with
traffic and keep to the right. Drive at the same
speed most
of
the other drivers are driving. Too-fast
or
too-slow driving breaks a smooth traffic
flow.
Treat the
left lane
on
a freeway as a passing lane.
