Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Defensive Driving
The best advice anyone can give about driving is:
Drive defensively.
Please start
with a very important safety device in your
vehicle: Buckle
up.. (See “Safety Belts” in the Index.)
Defensive driving- really me.ans “be ready €or anything.”\

On city streets, rural roads or freeways, it means
“alw.ays expect the unexpected.’’
Assume that pedestrians or o,ther drivers are going to
be
careless and make mistakes. Anticipate what .they might
do. Be ready for their mistakes.
Rear-end collisions are about the
most preventable of-
accidents. Yet they,are common. Allow enough
following distance. It’s the best defensive driving
maneuver,
in both city and-rural driving. You never
know when the vehicle
in front of you. is going to brake
.or turn suddenly.
