It’s about understanding things early, and understanding what’s going on within our space
For more than 21 years, Fremlin has worked as an instructor with Young Drivers of Canada, teaching people of all ages how to stay safe when behind the wheel.
“These types of courses are often called defensive driving, but we want to create a situation where students are recognizing problems well before they get to them. The first thing he tells students is to only do one thing at a time, which means no distractions like cell phones or other electronic devices.
Half a block back, check your mirror to see who is behind you and “understand if we get to the intersection and the road is slippery then we’ve slowed down plenty early.“If we can avoid stopping at red lights by adjusting our speed early so we can continue through at a reasonable speed, we save energy, we save exhaust fumes and we save ourselves from getting hit from behind or us getting in too close with someone in front.
“It’s more important that you know what’s ahead of you and around you. We try to drive with space around us at all times.
