Driving under fire, mostly from this habit

I think it's okay on my own, but it's often seen as a rude and cheeky behavior from the perspective of others. It's not just a mistake, it's a habit that can threaten public safety on the road. What are some typical driving habits that cause stress from drivers around you without realizing it.
1. Without a turn signal, come in 'Flick'
Drivers who change lanes without blinking buy the most resentment on the road. Unannounced intervention is likely to cause a sudden break in the back car and lead to an accident. In particular, on busy city roads, this behavior completely interferes with the flow of surrounding vehicles.
Let's make a habit of turning on the turn signal when changing lanes. It's a minor habit, but it can prevent traffic accidents.
2. Running too slow in a constant-speed lane
In particular, a driver who runs much slower than the speed limit in the first lane is called 'obstruction on the road'. Yield driving is also important, but excessively slow speeds can disrupt flow and cause accidents. The risk of collision increases while the follow-up vehicle attempts to overtake.
It is important to maintain a speed similar to that of surrounding vehicles. It is fundamental to understand the role of the driving lane and choose a lane that fits the speed.
3. To make a sudden stop or repeat a sudden start
The habit of jumping out as soon as the signal changes or stepping on a sudden brake even if the car in front of you stops a little makes the driver of the back car nervous. The driving habit of sudden stops and sudden starts can be misunderstood as 'beginner'Yamche'. This pattern not only wastes fuel efficiency but also creates inconvenience for passengers. Soft deceleration and acceleration are fundamental to safe driving.
5. Change from highway to car just before exit
Drivers who suddenly cross several lanes ahead of a rest stop or exit are also criticized. In this case, it is difficult to see it as a simple mistake because the following vehicles have to be suddenly stopped or the risk of accidents increases.
You need to check your destination in advance and change lanes leisurely. Let's check the road color guidance carefully.
6. an unnecessary honking
The habit of excessive honking in minor situations can stimulate drivers around them and distract the other driver, increasing the risk. A horn is a means of informing the danger of an accident. However, frequent honking of horns leads to noise pollution and amplifies stress. This behavior, especially in residential areas, leads to social condemnation.
7. Driving while using your phone
Fiddling with a smartphone while driving reduces concentration and maximizes the risk of accidents. It is easy to miss the movement of nearby vehicles if your eyes are distracted by text messages or calls. This habit, which is also legally prohibited, is a serious problem that threatens the lives of not only oneself but also others.
8. Use washer fluid while driving
If you suddenly spray washer fluid while driving, the washer fluid can splatter on the car behind or next to the wind. You may not be aware of it at all, but it can be a factor that causes irritation to drivers around you.
If you need to use the washer fluid for visibility, it is recommended to spray the washer fluid when stopped for a while. You need the habit of checking the rear situation through the mirror.
Driving is not an action alone. The habit of not knowing can be an unpleasant experience for others. From today on, when you're behind the wheel, let's take care of the mindset of 'Consideration'. It is important to start with small changes to create a safe road environment.
