However if you are reading this, hopefully it means that you are serious about doing what it takes to survive in a world full of very dangerous drivers.
I have put together 10 tips that could seriously save your life on the road, check them out here:
1.Keep your eyes on the road and know what's happening around you at all times.
2.Check your blind spots regularly.
3.Drive with your hands in the 9 and 3 o'clock position on the steering wheel.
