Could improved driver education aid in lowering accidents, causalities, tickets, and road hazards? And could Manual cars assist in saving the day?

The United States of America has a lot of Drivers on it’s roads, but with all of these drivers, comes plenty of incidents. You could blame these incidents on a number of things, but in my eyes a lot of this comes from drivers education.

Having better driving schools can offer more comprehensive and up to date education. This can cover many important aspects such as defensive driving techniques, increased knowledge of road rules and signs, and improved ethical driving behavior. Better curriculums can equip new drivers with the necessary knowledge and skills to navigate complex traffic solutions, anticipate possible hazard, and make informed decisions on the road. The effect that improved curriculums can have on new drivers can help give them a better understanding on safer driving behavior, thus helping to reduce accidents.

Higher quality driving schools will recruit more skilled and experienced instructors who are very familiar with all current traffic laws and regulations. These instructors provide a better and learning experience to driving students by passing along their valuable knowledge and wisdom while being able to also keep these new drivers within the legal lines. This can effect will help students to become more more skilled and responsible drivers, which ultimately leads to safer driving behavior and a decrease in accidents.

Better driving schools will use more “Hands On” techniques. This approach allows for students to experience many situations first hand using critical thinking and developing muscle memory. This also helps students become familiar with how the vehicle operates, what defensive driving techniques work for them, and how to handle emergency situations. A lot of schools have started to introduce virtual driving Simulators to let students experience these things without the risks. This effects driver education by increasing real-world driving experience, causing to students develop confidence and competence on real roads.

Improved driving schools tend to emphasize defensive driving techniques. Students will learn to anticipate the actions of drivers, identify potential hazards, and react proactively to prevent accidents. Students with good defensive driving skills reduce the likelihood of accidents and causalities. This has a positive effect students and their ability to perform in tricky situations in order avoid dangerous situations.

An improved driving school will not only teach its students how to operate a vehicle, but they can also emphasize the importance of safe, responsible, and ethical driving behavior. This focus on driver ethics and the possible consequences of irresponsible behavior in order to discourage negative habits that lead to tickets and/or accidents. The results are effective in instilling ethical driving behaviors which can cause students to make more responsible choices on the road, which assists in reducing both tickets and accidents.

Through more intensive training programs, improved curriculum, and more dedicated instructors, these driving schools produce drivers who are better equipped to handle various situations. This, in turn, reduces the overall chances of drivers being inexperienced and posing more of a threat to other drivers. Effects include: Driving graduates are more skilled and less likely to cause accidents and we can prevent the drivers, who “Don’t care enough” about the importance of driving and the possible risks it can hold, from obtaining a license and getting on the road and causing more harm than good.

Many other countries still continue to teach all students to drive stick-shift cars as they can help drivers keep their attention on the road and their car, rather than on devices or other things. This is great as many incidents today are due to distracted drivers. Bringing back more Manual transmissions as a prerequisite to obtaining a drivers license could help sort through many drivers and also give a deeper understanding to the drivers car and how it operates.

The Conclusion: This evidence presented in this causal argument establishes the significant impact of better driving schools and how they should be able to lowering accidents, casualties, tickets, and inexperienced/unskilled drivers. This can also help reserve much needed police resources to more important matters like gun control and to keeping the community safe in other ways. Improved driver education can assist by acquisition of essential skills and knowledge, which can lead to safer driving behaviors and aids in reducing road hazards. Many foreign schools already implement many of these things into their curriculums, while increasing the hours spent behind the way by many multiples of what we request in the United States. Investing in enhanced driver education is an essential step towards creating safer roadways for everyone.
