WHY DO TRAFFICCOLLISIONS HAPPEN?

2. NOT ENOUGH TIME
3. NOT ENOUGH SPACE
4. NOT ALLOWING FOR THE MISTAKES OF OTHER DRIVERS
5. NOT ENOUGH TRAINING
6. FAILURE TO ADJUST FOR CONDITIONS
7. ATTITUDE
8. DRIVER IMPAIRMENT
9. VEHICLE FAILURE

What do these “Common Causes”tend to have in common?
Study after study shows that human error
Causes 90 to 95 percent of all traffic accidents
HUMAN ERROR

AIM HIGH IN STEERING
We’re used to driving at HIGHWAY SPEEDS (55-70mph) but our brains are designed to process information at the speed we WALK (3 TO 4 MPH)!
Consider this…

LEAVE YOURSELF AN OUT
Your “out” is your space cushion
which works as a buffer zone
Against conflict.
Without that “out” you are often
At the mercy of those around you.

SEAT BELTS
THERE WILL BE ABOUT 30,000 COLLISIONS TODAY
ABOUT 50,000 PEOPLE WILL BE INVOLVED
IF YOU WERE ONE OF THESE PEOPLE,
WOULD YOU BE WEARING A SEAT BELT?
![Page 48: ADVANCE DRIVING SAFETY SEMINAR COURSE OBJECTIVE Improve driving skills in an effort to avoid accidents, prevent injuries, save lives and reduce property](https://reader030.vdocuments.mx/reader030/viewer/2022032722/56649f435503460f94c6341d/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
MOST COMMON REASONSFOR NOT USING SEATBELTS
REASON 1: “I’M MORE LIKELY TO SURVIVE THE
ACCIDENT IF I’M THROWN FROM THE VEHICLE”
REASON 2: “SEAT BELTS ARE UNCOMFORTABLE.”
REASON 3: “DURING HIGH SPEED TRAVEL, I USE BELTS. ON
SHORT TRIPS OR WHEN I AM DRIVING SLOWLY. I DON’T THINK
I NEED THEM.”
REASON 4: “SEAT BELTS MAY TRAP ME IN A VEHICLE.”

MOST COMMON REASONSFOR NOT USING SEATBELTS
REASON 5: “I HAVE DRIVEN FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS AND
HAVE YET TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT. SEAT BELTS HAVE NEVER
SAVED ME BEFORE, SO WHAT’S CHANGED?”
REASON 6: “I RESENT LAWS THAT TELL ME THAT I HAVE TO
WEAR MY SEAT BELT. I THINK I CAN DECIDE EHAT IS BEST
FOR ME AND I DON’T WANT TO WEAR MY BELT.”
REASON 7: “I GET IN AND OUT OF MY VEHICLE ALL DAY. IF I
TAKE THE TIME TO BUCKLE AND UNBUCKLE THAT MANY
TIMES, IT WILL PUT ME BEHIND SCHEDULE.”

THE MOST COMMON COLLISION
DO
YOU
KNOW?
1. The first plan of attack is to try not to back
2. For your vehicle’s survival, plan for your departure upon your arrival
3. The closest space isn’t always the best space
4. Know what’s near before you put it in gear
5. Keep scanning as you roll, or a sudden change may take its toll.
6. Back slowly. Take your time, prepare to stop on a dime.
7. To know where danger hides, don’t forget the front or the sides
8. Find a place with plenty of space
9. Don’t leave it to trust, back no further than you must.
10. Control your fate, communicate.
