Night time driving
1. Drive more slowly at night than in thedaytime, for the visual range is restricted
at night.
2. Don’t overtake other vehicles at night. Darkness bothers your sense of speed
and hinders your judgement on the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
3. Don’t use the high headlight beam unless its use is inevitable. Its dazzle
may blitz the driver of the oncoming
vehicle, thus causing an accident.
4. Always keep the window glasses clean. Don’t operate the windshield wiper when
the windshield glass is dry or the wiper
blade and glass may get damaged.8-5DRIVING TIPS AND SAFE DRIVING

other drivers. For that, observe the
following.
Drive at a safe speed.
Maintain a sufficient distance between
your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Don’t force yourself to overtake other vehicles.
Don’t make quick start, hard steering or sudden stops.
Allow an ample time in the driving
schedule.
Observe traffic rules and regulations.
CONCLUSION
A perfect driver does not exist. The
endeavour of every motorist should be to
strive for perfection. Safety consciousness
not only ensures your safety and the safety
of other road users, it also helps reduce the
wear and tear on your vehicle, prolongs its
life, gives more mileage and ensures a
comfortable driving experience.
Follow the do’s and don’ts listed, and
driving will never be the same again.
