    Study Notes

    The 4 R's

    • The 4 R's stand for Read, Right, Reduce, and Ride, primarily used to avoid potential head-on collisions.

    Application of the 4 R's

    • Implement the 4 R's when avoiding head-on collisions, which includes scenarios such as following too closely, approaching intersections, and making safe, legal passes.

    Delayed Acceleration Technique

    • Use the delayed acceleration technique at intersections with traffic lights to ensure the intersection is clear before entering.

    Right of Way

    • The law does not explicitly define which driver has the right of way; it is subject to interpretation and context.

    Collision Statistics

    • The highest chances of a collision statistically occur at intersections compared to other locations like parking lots, expressways, and rural roads.

    Roundabouts

    • The circular design of roundabouts is effective in reducing the likelihood of head-on collisions, promoting safer driving conditions.
