and Answers
R - Answer-Recognize hazards: Scan and Communicate
E - Answer-Eliminate distractions: Keep Your Focus and See It All
P - Answer-Plan ahead: Expect the Unexpected
S - Answer-Seek Space: Eyes on Path, Know Your Limits
Starting up at Intersection - Answer-Look left, right, and left
When Stopped in Traffic - Answer-When stopped in traffic, a car length of space is
required from the vehicle ahead. This will allow enough space to pull your car around
the vehicle ahead if it should stall and will give you an instant cushion if it should make a
turn
Count 1-2-3 After Vehicle Ahead Has Started to Move - Answer-This step is to be
followed when stopped at an intersection behind another vehicle.
4-6 Seconds Following Time for Speeds Under 30 mph, 6-8 Seconds for Speeds Over
30 mph - Answer-This is to keep you from getting a fixation on the car ahead and to
allow time to obtain and hold the proper eye-lead time.
8-15 Seconds Eye-Lead Time - Answer-This is the best way to keep your eyes ahead of
your wheels and is the depth at which your eyes should be focused most of the time.
Scan Steering Wheels - Answer-Look and see whether or not cars at the curb are
occupied. This is the only time they are a threat. If they are occupied the driver is
probably about to exit from the car or pull out from the curb.
Stale Green Lights - Answer-The point of decision is an imaginary line that you set up
between your vehicle and the crosswalk when you are approaching an intersection with
a stale green light. Since you are not sure of the light, you must be sure of the point
behind which you will stop if the light should start to change. This helps you get the big
picture.
Eye Contact - Answer-When you must depend on anyone along the edge of your driving
path to stay put until you are past the danger point, it is imperative that you get their
attention. The horn and lights are your communication tools where you do not have eye
contact. Only when you have eye contact can you expect the other person to act in a
reasonably predictable manner to avoid a dangerous situation.
