Red x
Don’t drive in this lane
26
White diamond
Reserve lane
27
Do not park within 5m of a yield, stop or marked sign
Yellow speed limit indicates max speed recommended
28
SMITH / SIPDE
``` Search scan Identify Predict Decide Execute ```
29
SMITH
``` Big picture system for sipde •aim high in steering •big picture •leave yourself an out •make sure they see you ```
30
Check back of car (stop turn slow)
Check mirrors gauges and speedometer
31
Following distance
Two seconds on ideal road 2-3secs Less ideal= increase
32
Merge
No right of way •cooperation •accelerate to posted speed •adjust I’m acceleration lane
33
High occupancy lanes
Buses bikes or taxis
34
Reversible lanes
Lane control signals (x or arrow)
35
Shared left turn
30m distance until entering ability
36
Controlled intersections
Controller intersections exist where 2 or more roads controlled come together •crosswalk •stop line •3m stopping
37
Uncontrolled intersections
Two+ roads come together with no traffic control signs | •driving on right has right of way
38
Zones versus areas
ZONE : speed limit and sign ARES: just sign School zone: 8:00-9:00 and 11:30-1:30 3:00-4:30 8:30pm - 1h after sunset
39
MSSSM
``` Mirror Shoulder Signal Shoulder Move ```
40
Left turns
DO NOT ENTER the intersection of vehicles cannot completely clear intersection •ensure you can turn into inside left lane Risk= potentially hit car turning right
41
Right turns
Stay within 1 m of the curb when turning right •check blind spot and turn from curb to curb
42
Free flow lanes
DRIVERS do not stop or slow down too quickly when using free flow lanes •2 roads meet
43
Turn signal
10 seasons urban | 20-30 rural
44
Angle parking
Between 30 to 60 degrees angle to the curb usually 45 degree angle
45
Fire hydrant/crosswalk
5m
46
Sharing road
Pedestrians: have ROW always yield to them Animals wildlife: brake/swerve to avoid if can be downe and reduce speed Bikes/cyclists: some disregard traffic do change lanes to allow space Motorcycles: lack control, always change lanes when passing Large vehicles: huge blind spot. Don’t try to drive along ride side if they are turning. 60m behind Trains: 5to15m, very sever impact School buses: reduce speed of amber lights. Stop completely without passing if red 20m behind. Emergency vehicles: move right or left to curb and stop till passed. 60km/h reduce speed
47
Reduced visibility
Overdriving headlights: driving at high speed where you cannot stop within light distance Line of sight Field of view
48
Weave zone
Speed change lane is used as both acceleration and deceleration lane
49
Zipper merge
Maximize road space by 40% if done correctly
50
3 proactive driving characteristics
Knowledge Skill Right attitude
51
Speed
``` Construction: posted Primary highway: 100 Secondary highway: 80 School playground: 30 Urban road: 50/40 Parking: 15 ```
52
Friction
Resistance to motion of tires and road
53
Gravity
Pull object toward centre of earth
54
Inertia
No day at rest stays at rest Body in motion will go in straight line (skidding) TRACTION > effect of inertia
55
Force of impact
Moving vehicle collided with other object or moving vehicle
56
Traction affected
First min of rain (hydroplaning) due to slickness
57
Traffic circle
Enter left signal (enter left lane) | Exit right signal (exist left lane)
58
Daytime running lights
NOT BRIGHT ENOUGH for night driving
59
Drinking behaviour
``` 1: affect behaviour 1-2: caution reason and memory 3-4: self control and judgement 5-6: vision 7-8: coordination and balance 9+: vital organs (badddd) ```
60
Drivers alcohol allowance
``` Full driver: 0.05 alcohol level Learner/class 5: none ```
61
Impairment or fatigue crashes
25- or younger
62

63

Stop to take breaks or power naps
64

Time Food Rate of consumption
65
