Discuss an experience that made you re-assess how you drive.
Twice in the same day, at two different intersections, I was stopped at a red light and a car ran his red light, right after my light turned green. I learned that even though your traffic light turns green, don't start forward until you have looked to the right and left to ensure all is clear to proceed safely!

Be attentive to others all the time - no distractions on cell phones, etc. Someone ran a stop sign at the intersection I was approaching. They did not slow down, didn't know 4-way stop existed. Watch out for the other guy.

Do you feel safe driving on the roads of Delaware?
For the most part, yes; however, this does not mean we can read billboard signs, pay attention to other traffic, etc. Delaware drivers should always stay focused on their driving, not on other things!

It is my opinion that Delaware does a great job with our highway maintenance and police protection. I'm happy about the new cell phone law!
