Driving

Driving in the winter compared to driving in the summer is a broad aspect. Some people have different views and opinions about each but one this for sure, driving in the summer definitely trumps driving in the winter, or at least that's my opinion. In the summer time, driving can be a peaceful feeling. The windows are down, the music is up, and the sun is shining. While in the winter time, it is frigid cold, ice is on the windshield, and your driving is usually limitied due to snow and hazardous conditions. Driving in the summer is not always peaches and cream though. With summer being the season following spring, it tends to have more rain. The heat plus the moisture gives way to slick roads and driving in the rain makes it hard to see sometimes.…

Is there ever a time when driving and you get a text message or a notification on your phone and you have to know who it is from, or what it is for? You can look at it for what feels like a second, but in all reality it was more like a minute or two; then there is the urge to reply, so you do. By the time you look back up you've gone as far as a football field and you hardly realize it. But what you do realize is that you passed McDonalds to get those french fries; so you turn around and get…

Comparing on how people drive in the summer and winter they both have their good and down side. Driving the summer has a good and bad side in driving because of not having to worry about slippery roads, but also having to keep in mind of your car overheating. Something for winters but just the opposite. IN this short essay I will get into detail on their pros and cons. First I will start with summer. Summer has been proving scientifically that people intend to drive more, that’s why gas prices…

Survey Two hundred and thirty two people participated in the survey. Based on answers obtained, 80% of the participants reported text driving for more than 3 years, 13% with 1 to 3 years of texting experience; and the rest with less than 1 year. Moreover, 30% of participant’s vehicles have an integrated hands-free feature for smartphones. Approximately, the half of them admitted using hand-held texting while driving, 40% have used both forms of texting, and the rest have used hands-free texting…

In Queensland, current driving regulations ban the use of hand-held mobile phones, but permit the use of hands-free devices. Such distinction reflects an obvious belief that the impairment to safe-driving ability that occurs when using a hand-held device is caused solely by the distraction of the associated motor and visual demands. It is not disputed that sustained driver attention is critical to safe driving (Leung, Croft, Jackson, Howard, & McKenzie, 2012), and there is compelling evidence to…

Introduction On a particularly dreary Thursday afternoon, I was driving down a well-known street. One that I drive very often in my many travels. As I was driving down the well-worn road, I came up to a stoplight and prepared to make my right turn, as any good civilian driver would. I set my cell phone down and glanced quickly to my left, decided that my way was clear, and proceeded with my turn. All of a sudden, I hear the sound of an obnoxiously loud car horn, drowning out my music. I quickly…

Driving in the winter and driving in the summer are two very different types of driving. They have very basic similarities, such as basic driving skills and how I conduct yourself on the road. In either season I still need to watch the road, follow all the rules, and be watchful of other cars on the roads. The main variable that makes driving in the different seasons is the road conditions. Summertime driving is safer than it is to drive in the winter. Driving in the summer is just like normal…

When people think about the most likely places where they will have an auto accident, they often conjure up images of long road trips during the holidays. If not this, then they may involve unfamiliar situations that are far removed from their normal daily routine. However, from a statistical standpoint, you are more likely to have an accident where you do most of your driving. Those routine routes that you take several times a week expose you to a wide variety of weather and traffic conditions…

Many people support a ban on driving while using a handheld cell phone. Driving while using a handheld cell phone should be made illegal immediately; handheld cell phones act as a distraction while driving, driving while using a cell phone is more dangerous than driving while under the influence, other individual’s lives are at risk, and using them decreases the individuals’ reaction time. Handheld cellphones are a physical distraction as well as an emotional distraction. Emotional and physical…

Driving in the winter and driving in the summer are definitely different ways of driving but they do share some similarities. You could probably already list a few differences off the bat. In the paragraphs that follow you’ll learn what driving in these two seasons do and don’t have in common. When driving in these two seasons you will either come across accidents, see one occur, or be in one yourself. Car accidents happen all year round; nearly every minute a car crashes worldwide.…
