It is important to observe all driving laws and road conditions. If you see a dangerous vehicle or driver, keep your distance. If you notice a vehicle weaving in and out of the lanes, following too closely, or traveling at a higher rate of speed, move over a few lanes and get out of their way.

Drive defensively to ensure surrounding vehicles’ safety and avoid traffic accidents.
