Please startwith a very important safety device in your Oldsmobile: Buckle up. (See "Safety Belts" in the Index.) Defensive driving really means "be ready for anything." On city streets, ruralroads or freeways, it means "always expect the unexpected." Assume that pedestrians or other drivers are going to be careless and make mistakes. Anticipate what they might do. Be ready for their mistakes. Rear-end collisions are about the most preventable of accidents. Yet they are common. Allow enough following distance.
