Experts told, what in any case should not make the driver behind the wheel.
All of us in one degree or another sinful. And in the process of driving, our “bad deeds” will disappear, and just transformirovalsya. The one significant caveat — “high risk” in a car can easily kill someone or maim.
Throwing garbage
A trifle, you say. And will be partly right. Well, what if I throw a cigarette butt on the go? The probability that he will get somewhere, where something can catch fire, is vanishingly small. Besides fly ash, the remnants of tobacco, paper and filter of cellulose acetate — substances that are without any consequences being developed and decomposed by nature.
About the same once and I talked. Yes, was in this sense a sinner, I confess. And smoke be sure to quit in the near future. But my car has long been settled half-liter plastic jar with a sealed lid — these are usually dispensed various drinks. And the remnants of my bad habits for a long time not out the window, and placed in this jar, where prudent and pre-filled water. As for the other garbage small things that does not exudes stench, it has long remained in the pocket of the driver’s door. And about once a week (or even more often) I have this empty pocket — once to remember it being next to the dumpster.
And, by the way, hot dry summers damage from not extinguished cigarette the not so ephemeral as a cigarette butt may fall on dry grass with very bad consequences in the form of a forest fire.
But even that is not important. Throwing cigarette butts and other debris from the car — this is a sophisticated way to mark your worthless and petty disregard for the surrounding world and other people. When you see that someone else does it — aren’t you disgusted? And when they themselves?
Try to force myself not to throw garbage. And literally within 2-3 days you catch yourself thinking that your hand reaches for the jar or package. And you will be horrified to remember that once calmly threw everything in the open window.
The use of gadgets
The paragraph of traffic Rules forbids us the following: “to use during movement by phone, not equipped with the technical device, allowing to carry on negotiations without use of hands.” Like almost any other legal wording, this does not possess the uniqueness. So, we both would prohibit conversations. And typing a text message or in any other Messager? And to not use a phone, a tablet or a laptop? Or, for example, the latest smart watch?
For the sane person it is clear that to gain any text while driving is even more dangerous than to carry on a conversation, pressing the phone to your ear. Since, typing the text, we constantly have to monitor the quality of his set, clearly distracted from the road.
Yes, there are times when you need to answer immediately. But, firstly, such situations occur very rarely. And, secondly, in the vast number of modern smartphones is the possibility of voice dialling/text entry. Don’t know about this? Find out. Behind the wheel — a very useful thing, which almost does not distract from driving. But better, of course, when management is nothing at all distracting. In the end, you can wait for stopping at the next traffic light and only then to respond to the message.
Another gadget that can introduce confusion into the process control of the car Navigator. Especially when it is long time no updated maps. Since the organization of traffic on the streets — the process variable. For example, some streets, even familiar, suddenly can not be unilateral. Even the latest maps may not be aware of such changes. So, as they say, the Navigator helps those who help themselves. The more that navigators are usually a few hundred meters I warn you about the required maneuver. That gives us a head start for a detailed study of the signs and markings in the center of the next intersection or exit.
And now about the main thing.
“Forced” traffic violations
As you know, our lives are often regulated as a moral imperative: “When you can not, but really want (or really need) — it is possible”. Looking at the faces of drivers that rod at the edges or overtake the second-third row, then to try to settle down for a turn or exit, I often notice that these people seem so normal, not openly brazen in their cars are also good-looking children or the older generation. But they still climb and over, and second or third on the next turn or exit. And many of them, when our eyes meet, was a shame.
In the supermarket, they quietly stand in line to checkout while on the road still climb. It’s some kind of mass insanity, or just “everybody does it”? But if someone, say, starts to walk to relieve himself in the main square, you will be as well to do? No, not because it is bad and wrong. But to go on the shoulder is also bad and wrong, moreover, expressly prohibited in the law under the name of SDA. Or when we’re in the car — we are “in the house”?
Besides, long ago mathematically proven that at even stuck in traffic in your lane the entire flow is moving faster than when he is forced to pass in a “objectof”.
But here arises a problem of a different order. In our do not end up having lost passionarity ethnos there will always be those who still blatantly go on an empty roadside, despite the potential of the camera or the potential crews of GAI. As some continue to climb and on the lanes for public transport, and to exceed the speed limit, despite the abundance of cameras. But these “heroes” still few in number, and when you debugged the punitive system, ensuring the inevitability of punishment, these “heroes” will be less and less.
But all the others, who climb not on their deliberate arrogance, but because “so do all”, generate a number of violations, which will never fail no punitive system. Real and incorrigible and insolent and all will go with it.
Therefore, one of the most effective ways of restoring order on the roads is, no matter how corny it sounds, “start with yourself”. After all, most of us — normal, and potentially with respect to each other people. If we stop impudent, and a few other “fundamental” jerks will catch much easier.
