Drive defensively which means you recognize hazards before something goes wrong. You pay attention to what it is happening around you, you have a plan and use practical driving procedures to avoid or diminish driving hazards. A defensive driver is an alert driver always ready to respond to adverse driving conditions. To determine if you follow too closely apply the 3 second rule. The front of your vehicle should not reach the marker before you finish counting. To prevent accidents increase you’re following distance to 4 or more seconds.
