FOUR QUALITIES OF A GOOD DRIVER:
A good driver should have skill, knowledge, awareness, and respect for others.
1.Skill: Drive smoothly by steering, braking, changing gears, and accelerating properly. Use defensive driving and anticipate possible dangers before they happen.
2. Awareness: Stay vigilant and look for warning signs such as pedestrians, children, animals, obstacles, or water on the road.
3. Knowledge: Understand the causes of accidents, such as distraction, fatigue, and daydreaming. Know your own limitations and understand your vehicle’s abilities, including its brakes and safety systems.
4. Responsibility: Follow traffic laws and road rules, respect other road users, and avoid selfish or dangerous behaviour.
In short: A good driver is not necessarily the fastest or most skilful person, but someone who drives safely, responsibly, proactively, and respectfully.
