Social Arts 2 (SOAR 2)

1. Explain/differentiate defensive driving from defensive walking.

 Defensive driving is a practice of drivers who consciously reduce the
dangers associated with driving. These techniques reduce the chances of road
collision or incident and can even save costs related to vehicle maintenance
and fuel consumption, by driving smoothly and steadily. On the other hand,
defensive walking is a technique that asks the pedestrian to take charge of
their own safety by being aware of the surroundings and anticipating the
actions of those around them. It also helps in anticipating or even preventing
different pedestrian accidents.

2. Cite more examples of traffic signs and have them presented to the class.

3. Enumerate and explain some helpful tips for road safety.

 Regularly check your car's condition. Make it an habit to ensure that your
car is road-worthy. Remember BLOWBAGETS whenever you will travel.
 Always put a seat belt on. Whenever you are travelling, always put your
seat belt on, as it is an effective way to protect you and your passengers.
 Always use signals when turning. Do have some consideration for others
behind you by letting them know your next move.
 Don’t text and drive. This is an obvious mistake for many drivers and it
could lead to very fatal consequences.
 Do not drive when you are under the influence of alcohol or when you
are feeling drowsy.
 Respect pedestrian lanes. Pedestrians have their own specialized lanes to
cross and stopping for them will not stop you from arriving at your
destination.
