How to drive safely and responsibly
Never drink and drive
Everyone knows that they shouldn't drive after drinking, but it's worth repeating. At a minimum, drinking impairs your judgment and slows your reaction time. At worst, it causes blurred vision and loss of consciousness.
In the Czech Republic, any driver with a blood alcohol level of 0.01 or higher is considered to be alcohol-impaired in the eyes of the law and if you are caught, you may be arrested or forced to pay a fine. You may, of course, lose your driving licence and get a restriction to drive motor vehicles for a long time.
Avoid distractions
Being distracted while driving is a bad idea, as you can't give your full attention to the road and your reaction time becomes slower as a result.
Using cell phones while driving -- whether you're making a call, texting or doing something else -- is seriously detrimental in terms of its effect on your attention to driving. If you need to make a call, pull over and stop the car first.
Aside from using cell phones, a distraction counts as anything that takes your full attention off the road, whether it's fiddling with the radio, checking or applying make-up, or eating food. All of these things should be avoided.
Fasten your seatbelts
Wearing a seat belt prevents the occupants of a car from being thrown around the vehicle or being propelled through the windshield during a crash, thus helping to prevent broken bones, severe head trauma, lacerations and the possibility of being run over by another vehicle.
Although you sometimes hear frightening stories about people who become trapped in their car as a result of wearing their seat belt, this is an anomaly and only counts for a tiny percentage of accidents. In the vast majority of accidents, the seat belt will work in your favor.
Speed limits
It may seem obvious, but observing the speed limit is a vital part of safe driving. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration "speeding was a contributing factor in 30 percent of all fatal crashes" in the year 2017.
Remember that the higher the speed, the less time you have to react to the traffic around you, and collisions are far more likely to be serious if they occur at speed.
