Helpful Conversations, Life, Safe Driving

Preview of my next book

When I started Blogging fourteen years ago. My first Blog was written about Safe driving. Doesn’t surprise me that fourteen years later I would be writing a Book about Safe travels.
When I started Blogging,I promised myself that every Blog would be better than the one before. It’s also my attitude with writing and publishing Books. On my Tax return I list myself as “Publisher” Here are excerpts from my next Book #4

Safe Travels: Driving to Live
To most people, coming upon an accident doesn’t strike a note or nerve; they drive the same way until it’s their turn to be carried away in a body bag. Your job is to avoid people like that by driving as if you are the only one out there who knows what you are doing. There are far too many suicide drivers for you not to take your driving seriously.

The Reality of Dangerous Drivers
Dangerous drivers are a constant presence on the roads. These “suicide drivers” are reckless, inattentive, or overly aggressive, creating hazardous conditions for everyone around them. To stay safe, you must:

Stay Alert: Always be aware of your surroundings. Watch for erratic behavior from other drivers and anticipate their moves.

Avoid High-Risk Drivers: If you spot someone driving dangerously, do your best to distance yourself from them. Change lanes, slow down, or take an alternate route if necessary.

Maintain Control: Keep a firm grip on the steering wheel and stay in control of your vehicle at all times. Be prepared to make quick, defensive maneuvers if needed.

Quality Time on the Road
For me, my commute is quality time. I’m surrounded by fine leather, a Bose stereo system, and a console that prompts me to listen to my text messages or dismiss them. Driving is more than just getting from point A to point B; it’s an experience to be enjoyed. But it’s also a responsibility to be taken seriously.

The Tool of the Road
My car can do 170 MPH. To some, that is a weapon; to me, it’s a tool to avoid mindless drivers setting up accidents. Speed and power are not about showing off; they are about having the capability to maneuver out of dangerous situations when necessary.

Use Speed Wisely: While having a powerful car can be beneficial, it’s essential to use that power wisely. Speed should be used strategically to avoid accidents, not to create them.

Understand Your Vehicle: Know your car’s capabilities and limitations. Familiarize yourself with how it handles in different conditions, so you can make informed decisions when driving.

Drive Responsibly: Always obey traffic laws and speed limits. Use your vehicle’s power to enhance your safety, not to endanger others.

Driving to Live
I am an enthusiast, but most importantly, I drive to live. Safe driving is not just about protecting yourself but also about respecting the lives of others on the road. Here’s how you can adopt this mindset:

Respect the Road: Understand that driving is a privilege, not a right. Respect the road and those who share it with you.

Stay Focused: Eliminate distractions and stay focused on driving. Your car’s features, like a stereo system or text message prompts, should enhance your experience without taking your attention away from the road.

Be Prepared: Always be ready for the unexpected. Keep your vehicle well-maintained and ensure you are physically and mentally prepared for the demands of driving.

Conclusion
Safe travels require a commitment to vigilance, responsibility, and respect. By driving as if you are the only one who knows what you are doing, you can navigate the roads safely, avoiding the recklessness of others. Embrace the joy of driving, but never forget the seriousness of the responsibility that comes with it.

Drive to live, and make every journey a testament to your dedication to safety and enjoyment. Let your vehicle be a tool for good, helping you navigate the dangers of the road while enhancing your driving experience.
