Focus on Driving the Vehicle.

1. Stay alert. While driving, keep your eyes on the road and pay attention to items like directional signs, speed limit signs, and signals. Check your mirrors from time to time to ensure you have a complete view of your car.

2. Avoid distractions. Keep your focus on one thing: driving the vehicle. Eliminate distractions such as cell phones, conversations with passengers, and the radio. Put your phone away and turn the radio down.

3. Look down the road. Instead of focusing on what’s right in front of you, make sure that you scan farther down the road. Professional race drivers use a method called High Eyes driving. They focus on the horizon ahead of them instead of the car immediately in front of them.
