You may frequently hear of the term: defensive driving but do you fully understand what it is and why defensive driving course is so important?

Now, close your eyes and imagine: you’re driving properly on the road sticking exactly to driving lessons you’ve learnt at school. Suddenly, the car in front of you stops for no reason. Late reaction, then we have a rear-end collision with serious damages to your vehicles and perhaps to yourself.

While you maintain a good driving pattern, there’re many out there ignoring their lives and others’. These people may text, eat, read books or even watch films when driving, posing hazards to surrounding transports. In these situations, you must equip yourself with defensive driving skills to prepare and react to unexpected dangers from all sides on road.

Never underestimate the consequences of bad driving habits from others

Attending defensive driving courses, you’re supposed to observe potential threats, improve your situational awareness and quick responses to sudden cases. We’re sure instructors will introduce you all necessary tips but let us Naijauto brief here several things you must remember to drive defensively:

• Stay focused all the time while driving
• Never tailgate other vehicles: This ensures you have enough time to react in dangerous cases.
• Be aware of your exit: if crash is about to happen in seconds, where would you drive to save your life?
• Make your intentions clear to surrounding drivers: Remember to inform others of what you’re gonna do next. Last-minute maneuvers are often culprits of accidents.
