Teaching Your Teen To Drive
January 11th, 2012
admin Teaching your teen to drive is an exciting and highly anticipated rite of passage that means greater independence lies ahead. It may also be a time of mixed emotions. Many parents look forward to the day when they won’t be their teen’s main source of transportation, but they may also feel anxious about how safe their teen will be behind the wheel.
New drivers copy driving behaviors they have witnessed for years as passengers. Since they have probably ridden most often with parents, those behaviors are the ones they will imitate. To some parents, this is a somewhat frightening prospect. To make matters worse, teens who integrate risky driving practices into their own behavior do so without the benefit of years of experience and highly developed skills. Before you begin teaching your teen to drive, consider your own driving habits and make a commitment to correct any careless or reckless behavior and model good defensive driving practices consistently.

Driving Tips
January 8th, 2012
admin Collisions (or accidents, as we like to call them) in most cases are caused by driver error. Wrong handling of the steering wheel is one of those errors. So many drivers lapse into lazy steering once they have passed their test. By lazy steering I mean driving with just one hand on the steering wheel instead of both. As any good driving instructor will confirm to you, you should always drive with both hands on the steering wheel, not with just one hand as so many drivers are prone to do.
To use just one hand for steering your car is just plain bad driving. Why is it bad? Because it is unsafe that’s why. Why is it unsafe? Because you are certainly not in total control of the vehicle, no matter how much you may think you are. If you have ever experienced a sudden blow out of a tyre whilst you are driving, you will know how difficult it is to control the steering in that event. You need both hands to do it. Even then, it takes some mastering. Learn and apply this rule every time you drive. Yours and other lives may depend on it. If you have never had the frightening experience of a blowout, talk to someone who has. You will learn a lot.

Drive carefully in the winters!
December 30th, 2011
admin Winter driving poses one great risk of skidding. While ice and snow are two different surfaces, they both come under winter driving. Snow that is falling hampers the visibility of drivers, causing accidents. On the other hand, there is ice that cannot be seen but makes its presence felt whenever there is a skid or spin out. Many driving schools teach the important principles of defensive driving.
Of them, the first main principle to be kept in mind is to drive slowly. The signs that say 65 mph speed limit do not apply when the roads are covered with ice or when it is snowing. During such times, these signs are changed temporarily to avoid accidents. If they are not, drivers should see to it that the driving speed should be kept lower than the speed limit.
