Having a drivers license proves legality, not longevity

You are legally allowed to drive on public roads.

It does not mean you are finished learning.
It does not mean you are skilled for every situation.
It does not mean you are prepared for everything the road will throw at you over the next 40 or 50 years.

Real driving happens in the years that follow.

Longevity on the road comes from things the driving license test cannot measure.

Judgement.
Anticipation.
Self-control.
Humility.
The ability to recognise risk early and back off before it becomes drama.

Most serious mistakes are not made by learners.
They are made by confident drivers who stopped questioning their habits.

Driving well is not about proving you can pass.
It is about proving you can arrive safely, again and again, without relying on luck.

The licence gives you permission.
Longevity comes from how you choose to use it.

Master these overtaking rules. In Zambia most of the RTAs on the highway are due to improper overtaking.

Do NOT overtake on the following

1) ON A BRIDGE

Avoid overtaking on bridges, bridges are dangerous places to overtake as you don't have other places to go than inside water or collide with opposing cars if other cars suddenly appear as you try to overtake.

2) ON A BEND

When there is a bend, please don't overtake no matter how clear you think the road is,it is very dangerous as you can't see the front, another car may be coming.

3) ON A MOUNTAIN

Like in a bend, mountains, hills are wrong places to overtake you can't see the front clearly and you may not be able to speed enough to overtake and avoid colliding with traffic from the opposite direction.

4) SHARP SLOPES

It is also dangerous to overtake as your brake system may not work the way you predict.

5) WHEN THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOU SIGNAL IT WANT TO TURN THE RIGHT

Slow down allow it to turn or safely pass it to the left if the road allows

6) WHEN YOU CAN NOT SEE THE FRONT CLEARLY

If you cannot see the front clearly for any reason please don't overtake.

7) WHEN IT IS RAINING

When it rains heavily don't overtake because the road may be slippery and your visibility may be impaired

8) WHEN YOU ARE FOLLOWING CONVOY OF FAST MOVING CARS

Avoid overtaking fast moving cars in convoy it will be dangerous to do that.

9) WHEN THE ROAD IS TOO NARROW:

Some roads are too narrow to take two vehicles at the same time, avoid overtaking in these kinds of roads.

10) WHEN THE ROAD IS SLIPPERY:

Rain, water, Slipped oil, swampy areas are known to be slippery, be cautious about overtaking in these kinds of areas.

11) AGGRESSIVE DRIVERS:

Avoid overtaking aggressive drivers. These are drivers who increase their speed whenever you try to overtake them so as to prevent you from overtaking. These kinds of drivers sees the road as a race track, they are dangerous drivers and can easily cause road mishap.
