Who goes first can often lead to uncertainty, especially at narrow places or intersections. Turning may also seem easy at first glance, but it requires a keen eye and quick thinking. The order may vary depending on whether you are turning left or right and the specific traffic rules and signs. Good communication with other road users by signaling and signaling in good time is crucial.
Another challenge in traffic is merging, especially when the road narrows. Here it is important to understand the so-called zipper technique, where drivers take turns to merge into the same lane. Signaling and keeping an eye on blind spots are essential to ensure a safe and accident-free journey.
Finally, interaction with pedestrians is an important aspect of safe driving. Particular attention must be paid to pedestrian crossings, traffic lights and intersections. Understanding the right-of-way rules and knowing how to react in different situations is crucial for the safety of all road users.
