driving reality: Most adult
drivers have not taken a driving
safety test or a refresher driving class since
they were 16. The good news is that the
majority of the driving public is safe and
competent. However, many of us have
developed some bad driving habits or have
just forgotten some of the most basic but
important driving safety skills. The fact is
that 90% of all traffic accidents are caused
by human error.
As a safety reminder for drivers,
Intercontinental Road Safety Probe
Confederation has prepared this “quick
read” driver’s pledge tip sheet. This
pledge sheet can be copied or downloaded
as needed from
www.roadsafetyprobe.org/pledge and extra
driver’s pledge cards and posters can be
ordered for free from IRSPC. We
encourage you to provide these helpful
materials to your employees as paycheck
attachments or as part of driving safety
reminder training.
1. I will keep my vehicle in peak
operating and safe condition.
Proper maintenance of tires, brakes,
headlights, turn signals, mirrors, windshield
wipers and seat belts are your first priority
for driving safety.
2. I will not drive drunk, high on drugs,
or drowsy.
Impaired driving is a leading cause of
driving fatalities. For your safety but just as
important for the safety of others, you must
never drive while impaired.
3. I will not drive aggressively or when
angry or emotionally upset.
Safe driving requires your full time and
attention at all times. You should be calm,
confident and focused on driving. Getting
emotionally upset at life’s problems or
becoming angry with other drivers while
you are behind the wheel can make you an
unsafe and unfocused driver. I will give
myself plenty of time to get where I need to
go. Rushing and running late can cause me
to lose focus on driving safely.
windows and mirrors of frost,
condensation, dust and snow before
driving.
Driving safely requires that your view of the
road and traffic are unobstructed. One-fog
covered side mirror or window may cause a
blind spot just as you want to change lanes in
front of that tractor-trailer. On bright sunny
days, that glazed windshield you were hoping
the defroster could melt can quickly become a
dangerous and blinding glare for the driver.
