I have been off from work over the holidays and noticed this morning while driving on my way to the doctor that most people are in way too big of a hurry. My goodness, I was going the speed limit and cars were passing me like crazy.
People are in way too big of a hurry today. In a hurry to get to now it looks. Each of us is so caught up in the day to day grind we forget to be safe. I noticed drivers were pulling along side of me then swerving right in front of me because I was in their way. I was not going fast enough for them in other words.
The legal limit did not seem to matter to them, the people who got up late and were trying to make up time by rushing to work as fast as their vehicles would take them.
There are some simple solutions that may help avoid having accidents. The first is pretty simple, just call your place of employment or destination and let the people there know that your going to be running late. This way you do not have to speed and risk getting a ticket or killing yourself or someone else.
The second thing you could do is always plan ahead. Make sure to get enough sleep the night before and also set your alarm to get you up early enough so that you can get where your going on time without driving like a race car driver.
Each year in the United States thousands of people are killed on the highways. And most of these accidents if not all of them could have been invented if the people had just practiced safe driving methods. One of which is to go the legal speed limit. So, the next time your driving somewhere, please try and go the legal limit. You never know, it just may a life by doing so.
