The Hazards of Driving
Many people take for granted their ability to drive. When we drive, we are putting ourselves in dangerous situations. At some point, one small mistake in judgement can cause serious injury or even death to another person. This is a power no human should yield. The only reason that driving is necessary is to better our lives and to make things much simpler and easier to do. Driving is a task that requires concentration, when that concentration is broken, the possibility for disaster much higher than it was before.
No one ever knows when an accident will occur, which is why it still happens. This should influence people enough to take their time while driving. Statistics show that teenagers drive entirely too fast and reckless, while on the other hand elderly people drive very slow and usually more cautious. This difference in driving types cause a dangerous driving situation.
When driving a motor vehicle there can be a lot hazards everywhere, which everyone should be ready for at all times. Some of these hazards include: bad weather, drunk driving, road construction, unaware drivers, car troubles and many many more. A lot of the hazards can be very dangerous to all drivers, but most can very easily be avoided. Driving is everyone's responsibility and it is very important for everyone to pay attention while doing so. Here are some examples:
There are many uncontrollable conditions in the weather such as rain, snow, sun, fog and sometimes even the wind can be a factor to hazardous driving . When its raining, the car may hydroplane, and the driver may lose control of the car which could cause an accident. Rain can also make it hard to see through your windshield. This hazard may be solved by simply not driving in these weather conditions, which is the safest. However, if you really have somewhere to go, the only answer is to slow down to a speed
