New driver’s simple instructions to make life better for all on the roads

It’s not a long time, but long enough to know the driving habits. In this one year I’ve never been tailgated, although I am driving every day. In my opinion the problem is that drivers don’t keep right, they prefer driving in the left lanes, blocking the way of other vehicles. My advice to all: 1. Even if you are driving at the speed limit, don’t stay in the leftmost lane, use it for overtaking. 2. Measure your speed, and choose the appropriate (rightmost) lane for your speed, so nobody will be flashing at you or overtaking from the right. 3. Use the mirror in the proper way, observe the car’s speed before you pull in front of it, maybe the speed difference is more than 20kph, and you will make him slow down for no reason. And the advantages of keeping this simple rules? It means a less stressed driving environment, less pollution (using harsh brake and accelerating etc, smoother traffic flow, safer roads). Please consider these simple things, you will make your (and other people’s) life easier. Be safe always!
