In fact 90% of accidents is due to drivers not checking blind spots, very hard to turn the head cause it is stuck? Even I check blind spots twice to make sure no jokers try to do some stunts.
MANY motorcycle like to cut infront and your left side in a filter lane. take note of them, if you are stopping anbd checking your right side to see if you can move, dont accelerate as they might be stopping on your left while you are looking at your right side.
they ALWAYS do so.
Found out that 25% of motor incidents actually involve teens! Here are some defensive driving tips for new drivers, hope it helps any of you guys!
1. NEVER use your phone while driving (Even a GPS could be risky)
2. Pay attention to ALL traffic lights
3. NEVER drive too closely behind another vehicle
4. Learn to drive in all wet conditions
5. Give others the right of way
Don't drive behind big vehicles as you cannot see beyond.
Try to drive while looking not at the vehicle in front of you only, but the vehicle (s) further in front.
This way, unless the front vehicle wanna delibrately sabo u, you will have more reaction time by looking at the movement of the vehicles further down
Most important is to stay focused on your surroundings and anticipate other drivers' intentions. So many drivers don't signal or start drifting into your lane unintentionally.
Having smart phones in your view, especially on those stick-on holders is one way to distract you, even if it is not illegal.
Peripheral vision and regular checking of mirrors and blind spots can get you out of an accident which you can avoid, even if you are not directly involved.
Especially to check for motorcyclists, many change lane but never see me beside them

I'll put my palm on the horn, ready to sound when the lane is crossed.
It takes me just 2 seconds to determine if a driver is bad through the way he/she drives, and I wlll try to steer clear from them.
