Many people drive their cars, trucks, or other types of vehicles without following road safety procedures, instead engaging in unsafe activities that jeopardize their lives and the lives of other road users.
So, in this article on EKO HOT BLOG we would be looking at dangerous habits drivers must avoid.
1. Driving At Excessive Speed
Some people enjoy driving at high speeds in order to get to their destination as quickly as possible, and this behavior can threaten their lives as well as the lives of many other people who drive cars on the same road or walk by as pedestrians. You should try to avoid driving at excessive speeds, especially on a route with just one lane.
2. Making Phone Calls
Another dangerous habit that some people engage in while driving is using their cell phones. Making or receiving phone conversations or sending text messages while driving can cause you to get distracted, and if your attention is diverted from the road, you may collide with other vehicles or become involved in an accident.
3. Eating On The Road
If you feel like eating or have snacks in your car while driving, it is best to pull over and consume them. Eating in the car while driving is a poor habit that is risky since you want to be able to concentrate on the road while still holding the steering wheel and shifting gears.
4. Not using your light signals at turns
Some people enjoy turning on the road and changing lanes without using their turn signals to alert other road users.
