Learn the Unwritten Rules of the Road

Go to http://www.icbc.com/drivesmart and check out the "unwritten rules of the road." This rule book may be lighthearted and whimsical, but there is a lot of truth to every word of it.

From tips to how to curb road rage to preventing break-ins, this guide gives us a fairytale-esque view of driving.

One of the most important lessons is to "treat your vehicle like you treat your friends." Routine check-ups help to prevent you from getting into a sticky situation on the road. No one likes a flat tire! In the long run you save money from unnecessary fix-ups and gas usage. As the book states, a vehicle that is not well maintained consumes up to 15% more gas which isn't any good for the environment or your wallet.

The main moral of the story: be aware of what driving entails, and don't hit the road unless you are willing to be a safe, conscientious, and courteous driver.
