On Road.........................
Every day in and out we come across so many instances and incidences of ACCIDENT on the road, but do we learn anything out of it. So many lives are lost or crushed on the road. This do happen because we never concern others on the road. Hardly any day passes without reporting ROAD ACCIDENT, consequent loss of precious human life, or injury, some times permanent disability.
As long as Casual, reckless, drunken, inexperienced, and driving by persons without obtaining proper license, is there , accidents will happen on the road.
Some drivers use the horns continuously, as if they think that roads will get automatically widened by hearing their blowing musical/air horns.
One of the reasons for accident is not applying the brake in time, reckless driving, showing the DRIVING SKILL on the road, and never keep in mind that roads are used by others too...
Some , not all vehicle users think that they are the ONLY USER in the road. Some use the roads for showing the DRIVING SKILL to others without knowing the consequences of the act.
Some young vehicle riders think that tomorrow they cannot drive fast, so they want to drive to day fast. Some times UNDER AGED persons also drive vehicles.
Some of the vehicle users give scant respect for others on the road, and for road rules for safety of self and others.
Some of the suggestions to reduce accidents on the roads are:
(1) Use vehicle signal light systems to inform your intention to others, so that they can drive accordingly.
(2) Respect road signals, and vehicle users signals and allow other road users, there by you will get the way to move on and on.
(3) Without allowing others to use the road, how one can expect others to allow you to give way.
(4) Always keep a safe distance while driving, cautiously driving can add half of the safe distance for emergency occasions.
(5) Overtake only when you surely want to overtake, no going back once decides, other wise it will make you involve in accident.
(6) Let SPEED of the vehicle is decided by the need.
(7) Normal driving, or rash driving the time saved is negligible, and the saved time is not used for useful purpose.
(8) Driving should not create scare to passengers in the vehicle.
(9) Always think that vehicle is also having a life to live in, do not short circuit it.
(10) Always keep in mind that you are following some vehicles, in the same way some other vehicle is following you. What you expect from the vehicle in front of you, you must show the concern to the vehicle following you.
(11) By driving slow( 4 letter word) you are saving a life (4 letter word) on the road, where as speed ( 5 letter word ) takes you near to death( 5 letter word)
(12) Strictly follow the TRAFFIC RULES, follow traffic signals. NEVER over shoot traffic signal.
(13) AVOID Usage of mobile phones while driving, an unpredictable hazard,
(14) DRIVING SKILL REQUIRES INSTANT DECISIONS, SIMULTANEOUS APPLICATION OF MIND, BODY, EYES, EARS, HANDS AND LEGS, AND FAST REFLEXES.
.
(15) AS A MATTER OF CAUTION, IT IS BETTER TO WEAR HELMET BY TWO WHEELER RIDERS, OTHER WISE YOU HAVE TO MEET THE HELL.
I thought of writing a few lines or tips for the road use, by seeing the scenes on the road every day, out of which some are reported through News paper every day.
