What are the 10 easy tricks they don’t want you to know about driving?
Sierra Knowles, I drive on a daily basis
In most states, you’re allowed to turn right at a red light after coming to a complete stop. Just make sure your way is clear every time.
It’s likely there’s a small leeway with the amount of speeding you can get away with.[1] My suggestion is to go the speed of the others around you, or otherwise don’t exceed the limit by over 7mph.
Be careful, though. Cops can and will pull over more than one person at once (See the answers here: Can a cop pull over 2 or more cars at once?)
Driving with your hands in the 9- and 3-o’clock position on the steering wheel may actually be better than the alternatives 10 and 2, and even 8 and 4[2] (See picture below). It might feel foreign to some, but the additional safety might be worth it.
Ever seen someone flash their headlights? They’re probably trying to tell someone something - and there’s a good chance it’s you. Whether you need to turn your own headlights on, or someone is aiming to pass you, or warning you that there is a speed trap ahead, take note and pay attention.
Increase your following distance. Seriously. It’s said that a safe following distance from the vehicle in front of you is two seconds, in ideal conditions.[3] Always increase that when needed - e.g. in traffic and bad weather.
When in doubt, use your blinker. Please.It only takes a few seconds and letting other drivers know what you’re going to do will benefit you, and them, and everyone’s safety.[4] Also, your hand should always stay on the wheel when you turn on your blinkers.
Know your vehicle. Being familiar with the vehicle you’re driving and knowing your way around the controls will help you out, I promise.
Stop caring about what other drivers think of you. When the situation calls for it, it’s always better to slow down and be safe than risk an accident, even if you potentially piss off other (bad) drivers.
On that note, nobody cares how fast your windshield wipers are going. Stop feeling self-conscious about it and use them for what they were made for.
And lastly, for some final advice: Use your common sense. Wear your seat-belt, pay attention, and be safe.
Keep in mind I wrote this answer relevant to driving in the United States.
