Follow these 6 rules to be an excellent defensive driver
Benjamin Zhang/Business Insider
But it's even harder to be a good defensive driver.
You all know what defensive driving is: it's based on the notion that the roadways are inherently dangerous places and you as the mindful driver must be vigilant about threats, so that you can avoid trouble.
It used to be easier to embrace defensive driving. We had far fewer technological distractions in our cars, and vehicles were less isolating. You could feel the road, the engine, the brakes. The actual physics that you were exposed to - operating a shell of metal and glass, carrying a tankful of a highly explosive and flammable substance for fuel, hurtling down a freeway at 60 miles per hour - were in your face.
Advancements in the automobile, from noise-isolation to airbags, have made it easier to tune out.
But defensive driving hasn't gone away. Here are five good ways to get better at it.
