City
Driving
One ofthe biggest problems with city
streets is the arnount of trafl'ic
on
them.
You'll want
to
watch out for
what
the
other drivers are doing and pay attention
to traffic signals.
Here are ways to increase
your
safety
in
city driving:

Know the best way to get
to
where
you are going. Get
a
city
rnap
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 rlrn and
crisscross tnost large cities.
You'll
save time and energy. (See the next
section, "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.
