A traffic accident occurs once every six seconds, most leading to property damage, injury, and/or death. Most of these accidents are preventable, and are caused purely by carelessness, impatience, inattention, and/or recklessness in not following basic driving rules. The basic tenets of driving include knowing the physics of movement, and knowing one's own limitations in a vehicle, which may differ in different road situations.
