Anticipation
Defensive drivers anticipate what may or may not happen, and they take action to avoid many problems. They anticipate potential hazards from other motorists, pedestrians, weather and equipment and take steps to minimize the risk.

They don’t try to pass unless it’s safe and they look for alternatives to any traffic
situation.
Skill
Good defensive drivers have the technical skills to operate the vehicle safely through traffic without endangering anyone else on the road. They can handle the vehicle even in hazardous conditions. |
