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.
