before starting a trip.

an accident which may occur when you
are sleepy or tired.

Night time driving
1) Drive more slowly at night than in the
daytime, for the visual range
restricted at night.
2) Don't overtake other vehicles at night.
Darkness bothers your sense of speed
and hinders your judgement on the
vehicle-to-vehicle distance.
3) Don't use the high headlight beam
unless its use is inevitable. Its dazzle
may blitz the driver of the oncoming
vehicle, thus causing an accident.
4) Always keep the window glasses clean.
Don't operate the windshield wiper
when the windshield glass is dry or the
wiper blade and glass may get dam-
aged.

your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
• Don't force yourself to overtake other
vehicles.
• Don't make quick start, hard steering or
sudden stops.
• Allow an ample time in the driving
schedule.
• Observe traffic rules and regulations.
