The National Safety
Council's 3 Step DDC Collision Prevention Formula
The National Safety Council suggests
a simple formula that can help you prevent vehicle collisions.
Recognize the hazard
- Scan the road ahead.
One block in urban areas.
To the next curve, hill or overpass in rural areas or on
expressways.
- Check your mirrors, inside
and out, every three to five seconds.
- Keep your attention focused
on driving.
Understanding the defense
- Know what to do.
- Use the "what-if" strategy
to help keep your attention focused on driving.
Act correctly, in time
- Do the right thing - before
the situation gets out of control.
- Avoid the hazard in time to
prevent the collision.
