Texas Ticket Dsmissal Facts and Tips:

Defensive Driving and the Physical Condition

There are numerous physical conditions of a driver that can contribute to unsafe driving – your responsibility is to prevent or compensate for them until you become a safe defensive driver. When you use out course for defensive driving we hope you will learn these tactics and behaviors.

Modern cars are comfortable and entertaining; air conditioning creates a cocoon-like relaxing atmosphere, there are radios and CD players and GPS devices and even TVs to entertain, cruise control limits your need to monitor your speed, there is the temptation to talk on your cell phone, etc. They may make driving more pleasant, but they also tend to let your attention wander away from your driving task and driving defensively. Never sacrifice your dring safety for a momentary diversion – if you can’t multitask then DON’T multitask..Also, most of us have a busy life-style and often do not get enough sleep. This is particularly true for young people. Defensive driving studies have shown they require more sleep than older adults, and that they actually get less sleep than older adults. Before you get on the road for a longer trip be sure you get plenty of rest the night before you leave.

Driver Safety and texas defensive driving

Texas Department of Public Safety web site has a lot to say about ‘Drowsy Driving:’ When Texas approved courses for defensive driving (defensive driving) drowsy driving and driver's safety were ade required topics.

Falling asleep at the wheel is known as the “silent killer” because it is under reported as the cause of fatal traffic crashes. Taking a course for defensive driving won't save you from that, but learing about the dangers and how it effects driver's safety will hopefully cause more drivers to pull over and rest instead of causing a collision. There is no accurate test to determine the level of sleepiness like there is to determine intoxication and there is little or no police training in identifying drowsiness crash factors.

Texas Defensive Driving tips to prevent a fall-asleep crash

Plan ahead and get plenty of sleep before hitting the road
If you start to feel tired, pull over
If you are not stopping for the night, find a safe, well-lit area and take a 15-20 minute nap.
Being well-rested or stopping when you feel tired are the best defenses against falling asleep at the wheel. Caffeine from coffee or energy drinks can promote short-term alertness, but it takes 30 minutes for it to enter the bloodstream. Blasting a radio, opening a window or other similar tricks to stay awake have not proven to be effective defenses against drowsiness. These will make you a better defensive driver and contribute to traffic safety in Texas.

It also prohibits the renewal of licenses electronically for drivers age 79 and older. This law and others relating to Texas Defensive Driving and Drivers Safety can be found on the TEA (Texas Education Ageny) 's website.
