Driving Defensively

DefensiveDriving.com has online driving safety courses for the state I live in.  The Defensive Driving course is about developing good driving habits.  There are road rage offenders, mis-maintained and distracted drivers on the road,  to name a few bad driving habits which have me a bit boxed in.

Road rage comes in many ranges of drivers, young, old, male and female that affect our ability to drive safely.  Our family and friends fall can display these not so pleasant characteristics.  If someone caused you to be you a near miss accident, how does being angry help?  I have heard of profanity, weapons, and even projectiles thrown from vehicles because someone got mad while driving.  With our defensive driving course you are taught to drive for yourself and others.  When children are in these vehicles in their little safety seats, any adult has to do all they can to protect a child.   I do my best to drive as if there were a child in each and every car.
Compassion and communication can go a long way when moving about our roadways.  Emotional driving is thoroughly discussed in our online defensive driving course.  You can pull over to calm down.  Your safety is so much more valuable than expressing to some other driver they are not that good of a driver.  In order to be in control, maintain relatively low levels of stress, it will positively influence your driving ability.
