When you drive defensively, you are aware of your surroundings and prepared for anything that may occur. 

You are cautious, yet willing to act to avoid putting your fate in the hands of other drivers.

Here are key secrets of super driving:

Safety:

First and foremost, consider safety. Avoiding aggressive and inattentive driving behaviors will put you in a better position to deal with the terrible driving of others. 

Allow plenty of space between yourself and the vehicle in front of you. Always lock your doors and wear your seatbelt to avoid being ejected from the vehicle in the event of a collision.

Pay attention:

Pay attention to your surroundings and be aware of them. Check your mirrors often and check the circumstances 20 to 30 seconds ahead of you. 

Continue to move your eyes. Slow down or pull over if a vehicle shows indicators of aggressive driving. 

If the driver is driving dangerously, try to quit the road by turning right or taking the next exit if it's safe to do so. Keep an eye out for pedestrians, bikers, and pets on the road.

Speed:

Maintain a slow speed. The specified speed limits are for ideal conditions. You must ensure that your speed is appropriate for the conditions. 

Furthermore, greater speeds make handling your car more difficult if something goes wrong. You must regulate your speed to preserve control of your car.

Don't rely on other drivers

Don't rely on other drivers. Be respectful of others while keeping your own needs in mind. Don't expect another vehicle to move out of the way or enable you to merge.

Assume that drivers will disregard red lights and stop signs and be ready to react. Plan your movements to account for the worst-case situation.

Car safety is important whether you are pregnant or not. But pregnant women choose to drive for many different reasons. These include convenience and security to comfort and freedom. However, driving is always risky and especially so for a pregnant woman.

Here are some safety precautions and tips for driving a car while pregnant:

Prepare for breakdowns and emergencies

You should always be prepared on the road, but especially so during pregnancy.

It’s a good idea to purchase an emergency and first aid kit for the car and to have things such as a rechargeable battery charger (to ensure you can call help), flashlight, a blanket for staying warm during a breakdown, and some snacks and water to ensure you don’t start feeling too out of energy if you need to wait for repairs.

Plan frequent breaks

When you’re pregnant, your body will behave differently and you need to adjust to these changes, especially when driving.

If you’ll be in the car for several hours, stop, stretch and walk a bit. You’ll get the blood moving, feel more alert and reduce the potential for swelling.

It’s important to ensure you prepare for these and leave more room for breaks than you might normally. Add at least ten to 15 minutes to your shorter journeys, more time for long road trips.

Position yourself far back from the steering wheel and/or airbag

When you have to be the driver, move your seat as far back as is comfortable.

Try to position yourself so that your breastbone is at least 10 inches from the steering wheel.

You can use after-market pedal extenders to put yourself in a position further away from the steering wheel.

It’s just three inches, but that’s a lot of distance in an accident. Make sure to adjust your mirrors for your new seating position too.

Gauge how you feel

The increase in accidents for pregnant women is likely due to fatigue, nausea, lack of focus, etc.

So before you leave, check-in with how you feel. And if you feel any of those things, ask someone else to drive or postpone your trip until you are feeling better.

Eat a snack, drink some water, take a rest and see how you feel after that.

Remove extra layers

Coats and jackets could interfere with the placement of the seat belt. Plus it could make you uncomfortable and distracted if you get too warm.

Coats also can restrict your ability to move freely behind the wheel. So it’s better your remove the extra layers of your clothes while driving.
