ARE YOU ONE?
GOOD DRIVERS POINTS l The six qualifications for good drivers are:— 1. The good driver has a high degree of self-control at all times, this control manifesting itself in various ways. 2. The good driver always maintains his car in such shape that it responds easily and quickly, thus assuring control of the car so far as the purely mechanical equation is concerned. 3. The good driver regulates his speed in accord with the conditions of the road over which he is travelling, and never travels at such a rate that he cannot stop it within the “clear course ” ahead. 4. The good driver invariably exercises due regard for the rights of others and always applies the simple axioms of courteous behaviour. 5. The good driver accepts the safety of the pedestrian as a primary consideration. 6. The good driver keeps his mind on the road ahead, as day-dreaming or chattering at the wheel cause many more accidents than any caused by stings of bees.
