On which three basic principles are defensive driving techniques based?

Question

DentroTest · Accepted Answer

Preventive (or defensive) driving allows a driver to avoid accidents despite the mistakes of others or adverse conditions. It is based on a safety triangle formed by three inseparable pillars: 1) Vision: Looking far ahead, to the sides, and checking mirrors to gather maximum information, rather than just staring at the bumper in front. 2) Anticipation: Analyzing the gathered information to predict the movements of others and acting before a risk materializes. 3) Space Management: Maintaining adequate safety distances (front and side) to ensure an escape zone and braking time. 'Time management' is related to route planning, not immediate driving safety.
