Practice these 5 things and you'll be a better driver:
1. Look far ahead of your direction.
2. Be wary of the whole surrounding around you.
3. Keep looking around and always remember No. 1 above.
4. Have a wide space between you and other vehicles, like try not to clutter up with them.
5. Use your signals and horn to make sure others see you, too.
I got these from a Mr. Smith.
