2 Transportation Tuesday SAFE ATTITUDE … means never overtaking  a vehicle stopped at a pedestrian crossing  after a NO OVERTAKING sign (wait until you pass a sign canceling the restriction)  when you are not 100% safe, eg approaching  a corner or bend  a bridge or hill  a junction  on the shoulder (the Landcruiser lane is for losers)  if you will cause conflict with other road users  approaching road works (traffic cones are a good clue)  near a school (never pass a school bus surrounded by children)  queuing traffic (you can’t know what they’re queuing for) remember … if the slower lane beside you is empty... move into it and let other vehicles pass you

3 Transportation Tuesday AVOIDING COLLISIONS AT INTERSECTIONS Technically, you have the right of way, but the other driver does not yield. What do you do? A Ignore him. Proceed as planned. He needs to learn the rules of the road. B Let him pass. There is no point risking a crash to prove a point. SHOW YOUR FRIENDLY ATTITUDE hopefully this is you

4 Transportation Tuesday Remember the little guy... High in your truck or protected by your airbags you probably feel superior, safe and secure. So spare a thought for those on the road who are smaller than you … motorbike riders and cyclists have their rights too. HAVE A CONSIDERATE ATTITUDE
