City
Driving
Here are ways to increase your safety
in
city driving:
Know the best way to get to where you are
going. Get
a
city map and plan your trip into an
unknown part of the city just as you would for a
cross-country trip.
Try to use the freeways that
rim
and crisscross most
large cities. You’ll save time and energy. (See the
next part, “Freeway Driving.”)
One
of
the biggest problems with city streets is the
amount
of
traffic on them. You’ll want to watch out
for
what the other drivers
are
doing and pay attention to
traffic signals.
Treat
a
green light as a warning signal.
A
traffic
light is there because the comer 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.
