Common road hazards
Hazards appear in many forms. Expect them, especially in unfamiliar areas.
- Debris, potholes, and loose gravel.
- Work zones with shifting lanes and reduced speeds.
- Animals near rural roads at dawn and dusk.
- Vehicles merging or stopping without warning.
Distracted driving prevention
Phones, food, navigation adjustments, and passengers all pull attention from the road. Set navigation and audio before you move, and place your phone out of reach or in a do not disturb mode.
Responding to aggressive drivers
Do not engage. Let them pass, avoid eye contact, and keep a steady speed. If you feel unsafe, drive to a public, well lit place.
