SAFE Driving Tip – Plan Ahead. Take some time to gather information on where you are going. This will relax your nerves so you can enjoy the journey. This also involves planning your route and plotting possible motorable diverts you can take, using your GPS or maps; figure out where you can stop for refills, food, and resting spots along the way; check the weather reports to know what to expect on the road; and also keep in touch with someone at your destination so they know where you are at all times.

SAFE Driving Tip – Don’t be Distracted. Taking your attention off the road to fiddle with the radio, text, or dine is endangering not just yourself and your passengers, but other road users too. Your reaction time after a tiring day at school or work will be greatly reduced. Taking your eyes off the road even for a split second is inviting trouble.
