City Driving - Oldsmobile AURORA 2003 Owner's Manual

City Driving
One of the biggest problems with city streets is the
what the other drivers are doing and pay attention
to traffic signals.

Here are ways to increase your safety in city driving:
Know the best way to get to where you are
going. Get a city map and plan your trip into
an unknown part of the city just as you would for a
cross-country trip.
Try to use the freeways that rim and crisscross
most large cities. You'll save time and energy.
See the next part, "Freeway Driving."

Treat a green light as a warning signal. A traffic
light is there because the corner is busy enough
to need it. When a light turns green, and just before
you start to move, check both ways for vehicles
that have not cleared the intersection or may
be running the red light.
