City
Driving
One of
the
biggest problems with city streets
is
the
amount of traffic
on
them.
You’ll
want
to
watch out for
what the other drivers are doing and pay attention
to
traffic signals.
Here are ways
to
increase your safety in city driving:
Know the best way to get to where you are going.
Get
a
city map and plan your trip into an unknown
part
of the city just as you would for a cross-country
trip,
Try to use the freeways that rim and crisscross most
large cities. You’ll save time and energy. (See the
next part, “Freeway Driving.”)
Treat
a
green light as
a
warning signal.
A
traffic light
is there because the corner is busy enough
to
need it.
When a light turns green, and just before you start to
move, check both ways for vehicles that have not
cleared the intersection or may be running the red
light.
