(pedestrians, bicyclists, and
other drivers) are going to be
careless and make mistakes.
Anticipate what they might do

between you and the driver in
front of you.
.Focus on the task of driving.
Drunk Driving

after drinking.
Do not drink and drive or ride with
a driver who has been drinking.
Ride home in a cab; or if you are
with a group, designate a driver
