13. Truck Driving Tips – Be Careful Of Other Drivers
I know many will argue at what is the biggest concern on the road today. Is it all the crazy ever changing regulations? What about the revenue hungry enforcement agencies? Is it the weather or wild animals?
No. Though some of those can be stressful and you should be well aware of. The biggest threat is the other drivers ‘sharing’ the road. Driving too slow can be more dangerous than going to fast sometimes. Then you have holiday traffic, rush hour, the party crowd, inexperienced drivers, or even worse: the overly confident drivers.
