[QUOTE="BigBeef42, post: 1330334, member: 41988"] So I noticed that a few things have changed so ill post them. Here is an updated list of DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE rules for PC Drivers. Maybe this will save a life or something.... Here in the Northwest its: 8 rules of backing: #1 plan ahead and avoid backing. #2 don't back unless necessary. #3 Back first upon arrival - when in doubt get out. #4 Z-Scan area you are backing into. #5 honk every 3-4 seconds. #6 use mirrors, listen, and look over shoulder. #7 drivers-side back. #8 no driveways. This may be different in your building. It went from 5 to 8 rules here in the NW. 5 SEEING HABITS: #1 AIM HIGH IN STEERING- a) imaginary target - bullseye. b) keeps u centered in lane and allows safe stops and corners. c) find a safe path well ahead #2 GET THEORY BIG PICTURE- a) how deep & wide is it? What's in it? Objects and ground. b) Avoids billboards & buys u time. c) Stay back and see it all. #3 KEEP YOU EYES MOVING- a) Look front 2 seconds & rear 5-8 seconds. b) keeps ur eyes forward and keeps u alive at intersections. c) Scan don't stare #4 LEAVE YOURSELF AN OUT- a) have an escape route. b) allows space on all 4 sides. c) expect the unexpecte - be prepared. #5 MAKE YOURSELF SEEN- a) communicate in traffic. Use horn, signals, and lights. b) establishes eye contact. c) Don't Gamble - Use Your horn, Signals, and lights. I'll post more tomorrow...... Sent using BrownCafe App [/QUOTE]
