I spend a lot of my time traveling but that does not prevent me from connecting and posting whatever’s going on with my life through blogging. There had been many instances that one has engaged in dangerous driving. It could even be your mother, brother, father and heck it could even be you. I have to admit that I probably violated a lot of traffic rules ever since I started learning how to drive.

But then again, I changed and figured that my life expectancy can be further prolonged if I drop this dangerous habit. What are the signs that may tell you that you’re a dangerous/reckless driver? Here’s a list that I came up with and maybe you can tell whether you’ve been acting like a bozo on the road.
Ominous Sign No. 1

How many times did you opt not to stop when the sign says “stop”. Some people would rather “roll” rather than hitting the breaks when they see the red light. You’re probably nodding your head right now but jut slowing down instead of completely halting would have disastrous consequences. You may not have experienced it right now, but never take chances when on the road.

Ominous Sign No. 2

Numbers never lie and according to a poll 30% of car crashes that resulted to death happened because of over-speeding. Everyone’s on the road to get to their respective destinations not to dethrone Schumacher or Alonso’s racing speed records. So before you pretend to be the next big thing in racing, think about it first.

Ominous Sign No. 3

Being too slow does not necessarily mean that what you’re doing is safe. If you’re driving on a busy highway where every automobile is speeding up, be part of the traffic flow by following it.

Ominous Sign No. 4

Almost everyone is busy while they’re on the road. It’s either they’re talking through the phone, gobbling their breakfast or even listening to the radio. I know, driving is boring but multitasking while driving is only permitted if you moderate doing these things.

Ominous Sign No. 5

Right after office hours it’s pretty hard to pull yourself up and still manage to drive back home after all the stress. If you can’t drive because you’re tired then don’t force it. Before you start pushing the pedal next day make sure you’re alert and that you’ve got plenty of sleep.

So there, I know you guys can still come up with an even longer list but I’d leave that for you. The road is basically an accident waiting to happen so don’t be another road accident statistic by thinking about safety all the time.
