The Wrong Thing To Do: Tailgating
• Tailgating is following too closely being the vehicle directly in front.
• Tailgating is dangerous because it decreases a driver’s time to react.
![Page 21: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Tailgating

Why is it important to keep a safe following distance?
• The space provides motorists with time to react in case of an emergency or sudden shift in traffic flow.
• Increased reaction time helps drivers avoid accidents.
![Page 23: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
There are two methods drivers can use to determine a safe
following distance.
![Page 24: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
One Car-Length Method
• Keep at least one car length (about 20 feet) for each ten miles per hour of speed
• During bad weather or at higher speeds, increase following distance
![Page 25: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Speed: 30 mph
Road Condition: Ideal
3 Car Lengths (about 60 feet)

How to:
1. Choose a fixed object such as a sign or a tree, ahead of the car directly in front of you.
2. Make sure the object does not cause any distraction
3. At least two seconds should elapse between the two cars passing the sign or tree.

Two-Second Rule
• This rule takes into account the traveling speeds of the two cars.
• It can help develop good judgment for proper following distances.
• During bad weather, the two second rule should be increased to four or more seconds.
![Page 31: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

SPACE CUSHION• Space between your car and
others on all sides.
• The space between you and other vehicles gives you time to
react in emergencies.Space cushion between desks?
![Page 33: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Here are the steps for making a lane change: 1. Check mirrors for a space in traffic where you
can enter safely. 2. Check blind spot by looking over your shoulder
in the direction of the lane change. Signal that you want to move left or right.
3. Check again to make sure the way is clear and that no one is coming too fast from behind or from two lanes over on a multi-lane road.
4. Steer gradually into the new lane. Do not slow down - maintain the same speed or gently increase it.
Changing Lanes
![Page 34: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Passing on the Left
Your lane has a solid yellow center line.
You cannot safely return to the right lane before reaching a solid yellow centerline for the right line.
You cannot safely return to the right lane before any approaching vehicle comes within 200 feet of you.
You are approaching a curve or the crest of a hill on a two-way road and cannot see around or over it.
You are within 100 feet of a railroad crossing on a two-way roadway.
You are within 100 feet of a bridge or tunnel on a two-way road and your view is
obstructed.
Passing will interfere with oncoming traffic.
DO NOT Pass if…

What is the best thing to do in bad weather?
• It is best not to drive!
• =
But if you have too…
![Page 36: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
When driving in the rain…
• Turn on windshield wipers.
WIPERS ON, LIGHTS ON!
• Allow additional stopping distance.• http://www.youtube.com/watch?

• During the first few minutes of rainfall, road surfaces are the most slippery.
• Hydroplaning– 35 mph and up- contact with road surface is like a
windshield wiper– Like water skiing– At about 55mph the tire will lose control with the
road.– No friction to brake
![Page 38: 1906 sysstem 3 account bsh nsm vavv](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022042620/5eec2b47852fda58ff680cc8/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Before driving in cold weather (snow)…• http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=5XzIcGr4S2Q&playnext=1&list=PL61BBA0BBFD412110&index=10• Let the vehicle warm up
• Remove all snow and ice from the car (including the roof).
• Always make sure the vehicle has windshield wiper fluid.
• In New Jersey, motorists are liable if ice flies from a vehicle and causes death, injury, or property damage.
• Use studded snow tires for better traction from Nov 15th – April 1st.

When driving in fog…
• Slow down in patches of fog
• Turn on your low beam headlights or fog lights… why?
• Turn on your defroster and windshield wipers
• Be alert for surrounding traffic
• In heavy fog, roll all your windows down (one can hear cars before you see them)

Night Driving• 90% of driving decisions are made based on
observations…..At night vision is reduced• Slow down• Be sure you can stop within the distance you can
see ahead• Drive within the range of headlights
– 500 feet-- high beams– 350 feet-- low beams

Stats• Traffic death rates are 3X as high at night
than during the day• 50 yr. old drivers need twice as much
light to see as well as a 30 yr. old driver• When smoking, the nicotine and carbon
monoxide hamper night vision• On average, 45% of all car accidents with
fatalities were the result of drunk driving
