directions. You must know what traffic signs and road markings mean before you attempt
to drive on a public road. This section focuses on the signs that you as a driver will come
across most often. You must know and understand these signs and respond correctly when
you see them on the road.

ROAD TRAFFIC SIGNS


A. REGULATORY SIGNS 

 Signs that inform road users of traffic laws and regulations which, if disregarded will
constitute an offense.
 It is important to know that you must follow the rules that are displayed by the
regulatory signs because they are presenting you the traffic laws.

1. Priority Signs Stop Sign Driver must come to a complete stop at the limit line,
crosswalk, or before the intersection.

• Yield Sign You must slow and stop if necessary, and give the right of way to the
vehicles in the cross traffic path; proceed only when it is safe.

2. Direction Signs These signs indicate the only direction(s) in which the motorist is
obliged to follow.

• Keep Right Signs Indicate that the vehicles must keep to right side to avoid a divider
or an obstacle.

• Keep Left Signs Indicate that the vehicles must keep to left side to avoid a divider or
anobstacle.

One-Way Signs Marks a one-way street; arrow points in the direction that the traffic
flows
• . Two-way Sign A two-way street is a street that allows vehicles to travel in both
directions.

3. Prohibited/ Restriction Sign


• These sign indicates that the only direction(s) in which the motorist is obliged to
follow. Do Not Enter Sign Do not drive toward or past this sign because you will be
driving the wrong way into oncoming traffic.

4. Speed Limit Sign

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 7


• Tells you the maximum speed allowed by law on the highways or roadway that you
are driving on. Maximum Speed Restriction, End of Speed Restriction, Maximum
Speed.

5. Parking Signs 
• State who is allowed to park in the area and when, and may specify where parking is
never permitted. These signs may specifically advise where:
 You are permitted or not permitted to park.
 You are not permitted to park except on certain days or holidays.
 You are not permitted to park between certain hours.
 You are only permitted for a certain duration.
 You are only permitted if you have impaired mobility and have a valid
Disabled Person (DP) Parking Placard or DP License Plates.
 You are only permitted to park if you are a USPS driver that is delivering
mail.
 You are only permitted to park if you are making a delivery.
6. Miscellaneous Signs
• No Blowing of Horn Blowing your horn should be done only for a reasonable traffic
warning, and reasonable means to warn other road to keep them from doing
something dangerous, not to reprimand them for doing a dangerous act.
• No Parking Sign A "No Parking" sign means you can't park, but you can drop off or
pick up passengers or goods without leaving your vehicle (i.e. you must be within
three meters of your vehicle).
• Importance of Obeying Traffic Laws. Traffic laws are designed to protect you and
other drivers on the road. Why is road safety education important? Children and
young people are at significant risk on our roads. Road safety education plays an
important role in shaping the attitudes and behaviors of children and young people
– ensuring they become responsible drivers, passengers, pedestrians and cyclists.

Road Markings Road markings are a traffic sign in the form and design of a marking on the
surface of the road. They have the same standing as upright signs. Road users must obey
these road markings. The diagrams below show the most common types of road marking
and what they mean. ROAD MARKINGS Single or double continuous white lines along the
center of the road WHAT THEY MEAN All traffic must keep to the left of the line (except in
an emergency or for access).

Longer white lines / warning lines along the center of the road
 These warning lines alert drivers to hazards such as restricted vision, approach to a
junction, approach to a roundabout, a hill, crests, bends and continuous white line
ahead.
Short broken white lines along the center of the road

in to the hard shoulder briefly as long as no pedestrians or cyclists are already using
it and no junctions or entrances are nearby.

Different rules exist for hard shoulders on motorways ROAD MARKINGS

Learning Objectives:

After reading this Information Sheet, you should be able to:


1. Identify traffic rules and regulations and;
2. Explain each meaning to follow traffic rules and regulations in according with concerned
traffic authorities.

Introduction:
In the previous you learned, traffic rules and regulations with accordance in concerned
traffic authorities. Traffic violations and penalties. Proper attire for all PUV (Public Utility
Vehicle). And Defensive driving techniques Traffic rules and regulations are rules designed
to expedite the flow of traffic and prevent collisions. Traffic laws are the laws which govern
traffic and regulate vehicles, while rules of the road are both the laws and the informal
rules that may have developed over time to facilitate the orderly and timely flow of traffic.

The Importance of Obeying Traffic Laws Traffic laws are designed to protect you and other
drivers on the road. If we do not follow them, we are not only putting ourselves at risk but
also innocent bystanders and drivers. By knowing the rules of the road, practicing good
driving skills and generally taking care as a road user, you help play a vital role in
preventing a crash. You will also be making road safety policies more effective. Many
factors play a role in road safety including following the speed limits that are posted and
making sure safety equipment is properly installed and used.

 Traffic Rules and Regulations include: 

A. Road obstruction
B. Illegal terminal
C. Wearing of safety belts
D. Observing the Unified Vehicle Volume Reduction Scheme
E. Driving license/registration/franchise/Official receipt and certificate of
registration (ORCR)

It is an offence to obstruct the free passage of the highway. Street works,
roadworks, skips, scaffolds, hoardings, advertising boards and building
materials that block the pavement and road are all considered to be causing
an obstruction to pedestrians and motorists.

C. Wearing a safety Belt


Includes Public Utility Vehicles failure to post (Both the Driver and appropriate
signage’s instructing front seat passenger Operator are liable to pay to wear
seat-belts when inside the vehicle. the fine for every violation) WEARING OF
SAFETY BELTS Reasons to Wear a Seat Belt As you know, driver safety is very
important. When you're behind the wheel, your actions will affect you, others in
the car, and anyone else who happens to be on the road near you. One way to
promote safety is to always wear your seat belt when the car is in motion. If you
don’t like wearing a seat belt or don’t find the task to be very important, our list
of reasons to wear a seat belt may just change your mind.
A Safety As mentioned, seat belts promote safety. More specifically, seat belts
can aid in the following:
• Preventing you from hitting the windshield
• Preventing you from being thrown from the vehicle
• Preventing you from banging around the vehicle and hitting the steering wheel,
door, etc.
• Women who are pregnant are more protected when they're wearing a seat belt
• It's the Law
• That's right, wearing a seat belt is the law. If you're caught not wearing one, you
could find yourself facing expensive fines and consequences.

D.SAFE DRIVING OR DEFENSIVE DRIVING To drive without having a preventable accident


is the simplest way to describe defensive driving. A preventable accident is an accident in
which the driver could have prevented to get involved with. He failed to do anything to
prevent the accident or lack of alertness could be the cause of poor judgement. In
determining whether an accident is preventable, analyze carefully the causes, conditions
and actions which cause accident. To drive without having a preventable accident is the
main objective of defensive driving.

The formulated safety or defensive driving code are:


1. Safety driving or defensive driving requires the knowledge and observance of all traffic
rules and regulations applicable to the place or country in which the vehicle is being
operated.
2. Safety driving or defensive driving requires the knowledge to sudden change of driving
hazards or changing conditions in the mechanical functioning of the vehicle, road surface,
lightning and weather.
3. Safety driving or defensive driving requires the use of the right-way and give courtesy to
others whenever necessary to prevent accident.
4. Safety driving or defensive driving requires the alertness for driving errors of other
drivers and the ability to decide, adjust in driving so that this error of others will not be the
cause of the accident.
5. Safety driving or defensive driving requires a great confidence in one’s attitude that a
driver can drive without even having a preventable accident.

COMMON ERRORS IN DRIVING Travelling from one place to another without committing
any error and getting involved in an accident mean “perfect driving”. To achieve a good
record in efficient driving, here are some tips to avoid errors.
1. Traffic Violations Any traffic violation you committed, whether serious or not, do not try
to fix the traffic enforcer because this will make you immune to any traffic violations you
committed. One of the main cause of accident is disregarding traffic signs. Any traffic sign
installed to a particular place should be followed to avoid untoward incidents. To be able to
become a professional and responsible driver, you should know and learn to obey all traffic
signs. Always try to learn all the existing and new signs, rules, and regulations, especially
those signs installed on delicate areas.
2. Misuse of Vehicle Misuse of vehicle shorter its life. Some accidents are cause by misuse
of mechanical components. Checking of oil and tire pressure must be done before using the

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 24


vehicle. Improper idling, wrong gear and other misuse of the vehicle can cause mechanical
trouble which lessen the life of your vehicle
. 3. Trip schedule Plan your schedule carefully. Do not try to increase your speed for any
schedule delay, go on as it was planned. Maintain or adjust your driving to all conditions,
the kind of road, weather and traffic situation. To Avoid such delay, always start as early as
possible.
4. Courtesy to others When driving on the street, be sure to be courteous to others. It all
depends on your driving attitude if you will have friends or enemies. If driving is your
profession, you bad attitudes will create a bad image not only yourself but also to the
company where you work with. Proper practice courtesy on the road makes you a perfect
and good driver.

Information Sheet 3.3-1 Practice Courtesy “Courtesy Counts. Let’s Drive the message
home.” Considerate. Foresight. Patience. Respect. Space

Learning Objectives:

After reading this Information Sheet, you should be able to:

1. Identify various qualifications and attitudes of a driver, road courtesy, driver’s code of
ethics and;

2. Explain each meaning to perform driving of light vehicle in accordance with industry.

Introduction:

Driving etiquette relates to the general courtesy rules which communities expect the
operators of vehicles to follow while driving. Good driving etiquette typically involves
being courteous and staying alert which varies by vehicle, situation, and location (etiquette
for driving an F1 car involves different rules than etiquette for driving an RV). Failure to
adhere to this behavior can lead to increased risk of road collisions, trauma and road rage.
Driving etiquette can extend beyond in-vehicle actions. "When a courteous driver scrapes
the fender or inflicts minor damage to a parked car without its owner present, he leaves a
note giving his name, his telephone number, and the name of the insurance company. If the
owner is present, the courteous driver exchanges insurance information politely and
contacts the proper authorities right away without incident". Breaches in driving etiquette
can often be addressed amiably with a simple and immediate expression of apology. The
general guiding principle behind driver etiquette is "one good turn deserves another". It is
considered vital that everyone adheres to good driving etiquette. Speeding and aggressive
driving, both examples of poor driving etiquette, have been cited as negative factors related
to rural highways. Drivers need education about driving etiquette to prevent them getting
into accidents.

A. DIVING ATTITUDES Improving and maintaining good behaviors and attitudes to driving
are key components to enhancing the safety of our roads. As we become more and more
aware of our own driving behaviors, we can work on improving our attitudes, which, in
turn, will instill positive change in all the drivers in our driving community.

What are some good behavior traits/attitudes to adopt when driving?

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 30


Respect for other drivers – don’t tail gate other cars, allow cars to merge in front of you and
allow for people to make mistakes Awareness – use your mirrors and always be aware of
where cars are in relation to your vehicle and scan the road ahead for possible hazards
Share the road with other drivers Never take driving for granted – road conditions change
from moment to moment, so even if you drive down a street every day, always be alert for
new hazards Adopt the attitude, “I can make a difference to road safety by being a
responsible driver” Drive to conditions, not the posted speed limits

C. ROAD COURTESY 101 1. To Other Motorists: • Give proper signals to other


motorists. It is very vital to signal your intention of stopping, passing, turning, left or
right, or slowing down to warn other drivers. • When parking, wait for vacant
spaces and give consideration to those who came first. Park orderly to give enough
space to those incoming vehicles who would also be parking. • Extend assistance to
other drivers who happens to have vehicle trouble along the road. • Give way to
vehicles who would like to overtake your path, although you know that you have the
right-of-way. • Give proper courtesy to motorcyclists, bicyclists and other road
users. • Check your distance with other vehicles. Avoid tail-gating. 2. To Passengers:
• Driver’s should always be courteous and considerate to their passengers. • Be
careful while driving. Follow strictly traffic signs and signals to avoid delay once
apprehended. • Do not slam your brakes or press your pedals too hard. Your
passenger might not be able to hold on and may bump around inside the vehicle. •
Be sure your passengers have stepped-out of your vehicle safely before starting to
move. • To taxi drivers, be honest to your passengers. Do not drive with tampered
meters and always give them their exact change. • Do not smoke while driving. • To
public utility or for hire drivers, avoid cutting trips. The Role of Passengers:
Passengers should never do anything to interfere with the driver and as much as
possible do not distract him while he is driving. In looking for a street name or
address, the passenger must assist the driver and do the searching.
B. DEFENSIVE DRIVING TIPS Defensive driving is often defined as preventing crashes
before they occur… It is the demonstration of an attitude, awareness and driving
skills such asStaying alert and keeping your eyes moving so that you can keep track
of what is happening at all times. Looking for trouble spots developing around you.
Having a plan of action if the other driver does the wrong thing. Knowing that the
law requires drivers to protect each other from their own mistakes.

A Defensive Driver Must Be able to keep a safe driving record. Have a positive

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 31


attitude on road safety. Be physically and mentally fit to drive. Have received proper
training before driving

FACTORS THAT AFFECT DRIVING:

1. Attitude A defensive driver must develop and demonstrate an attitude that road
users. Recognizes that other road users will make mistakes. Knows no journey is so
urgent that a safe speed can be maintained. Driving is a skill which requires the
application of good techniques. Believes that safe driving requires an alert mind at all
times.

2. Behavior An ideal defensive driver: Always wear a seat-belt. Keeps within the
advisory speed limit. Constantly scans the road for potential hazard. Signals his
intentions at all times. Shows courtesy at all times.The factors affecting the behavior of
the driver are the following alcohol, drugs, and fatigue.

Right Mental Attitude A defensive driver always maintains a safe caution of distance in
front and behind his vehicles by:

1. Observing the four-second rule.

2. Adopting a positive and skilled mental approachSearch – The road seen ahead,
around and rear of the vehicles. Identify – The potential and immediate hazard on the
road. Predict – The actions of other road users. Decide – What to do to avoid an unsafe
situation.

D. KEYS TO EFFECTIVE DEFENSIVE DRIVING

1. Concentration • Standard of vision, hearing and health all have a bearing on the
amount of concentration. • The driver must adjust the speed of his vehicle on the
degree of concentration he is able to apply.

2. Driving Plans and Decisions • Driving plans should be made on the correct
assessment of the changing scene both ahead or to the rear of the vehicle. • Driving
plans should enable the driver to make decisions in a methodical manner. • Plans and
decisions are combination of what can be seen, what cannot be seen circumstances
which are expected to rise, allowances for the mistakes of other road users.

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 32


3. View from the Vehicle • The driver must aim to have the best possible view of the
area around the vehicle. • Windows and windshield must be clean. 

E. CODE OF ETHICS FOR DRIVER

CHECK VEHICLE REGULARLY. MAINTAIN FIT FOR USE. KEEP YOUSELF IN GOOD
HEALTH PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY. SHOW CARE, COURTESYFOR OTHER ROAD
USERS. WHILE DRIVING USE SEAT BELTS BE ALERT ABOUT THE ERRORS OF OTHER
DRIVERS. NEVER MIX DRINKING AND DRIVING. START EARLY, DRIVE SLOWLY, REACH
SAFELY. DO NOT OVER SPEED OR OVER LOAD YOUR VEHICLE. GIVE SIGNAL BEFORE
TURNING, BRAKING & STOPPI NG. SLOW DOWN WHILE NEARISNG TURNINGS,
JUNCTIONS AND CROSS ROADS. DO NOT PARK VEHICLE IN PROHIBITED AND NO
PARKING AREAS DO NOT OVER TAKE DANGEROUSLY. AT NIGHT DIP YOUR LIGHTS TO
ON COMING, FRINTT GOING VEHICLE. DO NOT HORN UNNECESSARILY. NEVER HORN
IN SILENT ZONES. KEEP SAFE FOLLOWING DISTANCE. ‘MORE SPEED MORE GAP’. IN
ROUND ABOUTS GIVE WAY FOR VEHICLES IN YOUR RIGHT. RESPECT SIGNALS. NEVER
JUMP TRAFFIC SIGNALS. ALWAYS KEEP THE REQUIRED DOCUMENTS WITH YOU. GIVE
WAY TO AMBULANCE, FIRE ENGINES & VIP CARRIAGES. DURING ACCIDENT DO NOT
RUN AWAY, INFORM POLICE KEEP YOURSELF CALM HAPPY WHILE DRIVING

Philippines Drivers Hand Book Roundabouts.

1. When approaching a roundabout aim in whichever direction you want to go and


pray. It is essential you jam your bumper into any tiny gap and add as much
additional confusion to the situation as possible while continually beeping the horn.
If God wants you to survive you will make it out the other side.

Overtaking 2.Firstly, ignore any oncoming traffic as it is your right to drive on the
wrong side of the road once you have flashed your lights (if they work). Next swerve
out quickly to ensure you surprise anyone arrogant enough to be trying to overtake you
at the time. If this method fails due to too much oncoming traffic simply revert to
overtaking on curb side.

Responsibility. 3. In these examples under normal conditions the blue car would most
likely be responsible for the collision but there are special circumstances, if the person
driving the green car happens to be a foreigner then unquestionably the responsibility
relies entirely on the green car. If questioned as to how this could be possible simply
reply "If you were not in my country I would not have crashed into you."

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

Jeepney Pickups. 5. Jeepneys are required to stop for excessive amounts of time and
right across intersections to pick up customers as to not only block following traffic but
also any vehicles coming from side streets. This is to maximize potential customers; it is
also important to remain ignorant to any sense of urgency from the people already
onboard. This will also give everyone the opportunity to marvel at your vehicles
decorations.

Foreign Relations. 6. If you are in car B. and a foreigner is driving car A. this is the
perfect opportunity to make some cash. Once car A. enters the intersection drive into it
ensuring moderate damage to both vehicles. Once the driving exits his vehicle begin
yelling about how badly damaged it is and quote him a repair price many times what is
required. For the most profit aim for the expensive vehicles to maximize the potential
quote.

Road Crossings. 7. In this situation the driver of the blue car should slow but not stop to
ensure the pedestrian has an extra incentive to move quickly and as for the driver of the
green car he should accelerate to get past the pedestrian and not get stuck in the same
situation the blue car is in.

First Come First Served. 8. Giving way is a sign of weakness so at every possible chance
ensure you make it through the intersection with aggressive driving. Additionally, this
will ensure you get to where you are going allowing for more time to be spent doing
absolutely nothing.

Parking. 9. When parking we encourage creative thinking, treat it like a puzzle. Try to
insert as many vehicles in an area as possible and if necessary mount the curb or park
in an intersection.

Parking. 10. These lines were the only way we could convince foreigners it was safe to
cross the road but feel free to park over them and ignore them completely when
driving.

Driving Test. 11. In the Philippines we have discovered a way to streamline the process
of getting a full license and everyone seems happy with the results. Really we can't see
any down side to the new process.

Signs. 12. Originally these read "Local's parking only" and "No foreigner parking" but
these were decided to be controversial and were replaced with the same effect.

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 34


Stop. 13. More of a recommendation than a rule.

Give Way. 14. Feel free to completely ignore this sign it is simply to confuse stupid
foreigners.

Speed Hump. 15. Originally used to warn of approaching speed bumps but it was
decided to discontinue its use after discovering the sheer volume required.

Lost. 16. If you see this sign on the side of the road you have clearly taken a wrong turn.

Heavy vehicles Crossing. 17. Warning this area has frequent carabao traffic both
crossing the road and as a mode of transportation. Be prepared to spend a great deal of
time blocked by one while you pointlessly honk your horn.

Rest Area. 18. Keep your eyes out for this sign; they are a great location for family
holidays and get-togethers. They are also good for new bamboo housing areas as CR’s
and furniture are already supplied.

Road Work. 19. Road works ahead so begin slowing down now. As you get closer slow
to an absolute crawl so you can get a better view of all the workers doing nothing. If the
work is particularly interesting feel free to stop in the middle of the road and exit your
vehicle for an optimal view.

Additional Driving Requirements

Cell Phones. 20. All drivers must be well trained in the art of texting on mobile phones
while driving.

Seat Belts. 21 Seat belts should never be worn and if possible even removed.

Drink Driving. 22. Studies have found drunk drivers get to their location quicker. We
recommend a bottle of red horse before driving to assist with traffic flow.

Over Loading. 23. To help keep traffic to a minimum we recommend putting as many
people into one vehicle as possible. Roofs and bumpers are also another good location
for stacking passengers.

owing. 24. When towing another vehicle use an old piece of rope that is guaranteed to
break and never add a ‘vehicle in tow’ sign so as to give your fellow motorist a pleasant
surprise when overtaking.

Speeding. 25. Speed limits are determined by your paint job and muffler. The fancier
your paint work and louder your exhaust the faster you can go. Disclaimer All preceding
rules are pure speculation as no LTO officer could be found that had learned to drive or
would agree to follow any set down rules.

E. Managing difficult passengers Drivers may encounter difficult or aggressive


passengers during the course of their duties. These passengers have the potential to
distract and distress the driver. This page provides guidance for bus operators about
how to manage the risks posed by disruptive passengers. The driver's main priority and
safety duty to the passengers is to concentrate on driving safely. If a passenger's
conduct distracts the driver it may be unsafe to continue the journey. Passengers may
exhibit behaviors including: Being disruptive and non-cooperative Verbal threats,
intimidation or harassment Physical assault and spitting Throwing objects and
projectiles Damaging property on the bus Intoxication - drinking, smoking or drug use
Bullying and violence.

F. Drivers Attitude Behavior If the driver remains calm and respectful toward the
difficult passenger it may de-escalate the situation and reduce the risk of physical and
verbal assaults.

G. 4 interpersonal skills all vehicle drivers should develop:

1. Self-awareness Self-awareness is an essential soft skill that acts as a foundation to


emotional intelligence. If drivers are self-aware, they know their strengths,
opportunities for growth, triggers, values, drivers, and everything in between. This
knowledge enables people to utilize assets to their advantage, exert caution at the times
when they may be triggered, and develop in the areas that they need it most. Self-
awareness is best developed through self-reflection and feedback.

2. Empathy While understanding one’s self is a critical interpersonal skill, an equally


important one is empathy – the ability to understand others’ feelings. Having empathy
helps drivers build better relationships and address the needs of those around them,
because they are attuned to what’s important to them. Empathy also enables people to
better recognize the impact they are having on others. Armed with the ability to gauge

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 36


how they are coming across, drivers can adjust their approach accordingly, and ensure
they are communicating with impact.

3. Managing emotions Life can be stressful. On the work front, ambitious goals,
disagreements with colleagues, and large workloads can create pressure. On the home
front, stresses from relationship challenges, financial strains, and work-life balance
issues can often trickle over into the workplace. The best drivers are those who have
learned how to manage these stresses and any negative emotional displays that may
come as a result of them. While self-awareness enables them to recognize when they
are irritable, anxious, or feeling threatened, for example, their ability to regulate these
emotions helps them to maintain their composure, and prevent any behaviors they
might later regret.

4. Listening skills Drivers, who despite these challenges, exhibit strong listening skills
have a number of advantages. They can be more efficient, because they are better able
to absorb and utilize the information to which they are exposed. They can develop
greater empathy, because by being receptive to what others are saying, they are better
able to understand what’s important to them. They build stronger relationships,
because others respond positively when they feel they are being heard.

Learning Objectives:

After reading this Information Sheet, you should be able to:

1. Identify traffic violations in connections of licensing and;

2. Practice knowledge and skills on how to respect traffic enforcers.

Introduction: In this previous lesson, you learned different job responsibilities of a traffic
enforcers and how to practice knowledge and skills on how to respect traffic enforcers by
giving a situation in terms of violation in connection to license. A traffic enforcer is
someone who enforcers traffic rules and safety standards. At times they may also be called
highway patrol officer. They detailed within neighborhoods or local police station or any
nearby posts. These days, there are even imaginative and creative traffic enforcers who do
different gimmicks to catch the attention of the people on the road and make them follow
rules and traffic regulations cheerfully as with the dancing traffic police. It may also be a
way to ease the stress and tension while on the road especially during traffic and rush
hours. Respect Treating people in a positive manner that acknowledges them for who they
are and/or what they are doing. Being treated or treating an individual in a dignified
manner. Respect is earned and is never just given. BUT, you must give respect to receive
respect. Meaning when you interact with an individual you treat them with dignity and in a
respectful manner as this shows your character as a person. And the respect will be
reciprocated. You must always behave in a respectful manner as this reflects on you, your
character, integrity and values of who you are as a person. No one owes you respect until
you have earned it, so there is no such thing as I will give it after they give it to me first.
That attitude is a disrespectful action to anyone you interact with as it insinuates that you
do not trust them to act accordingly, and implies that they "owe" you respect before you
will give it. That will cause people to LOSE respect for you or never gain it in the first place.
When you first meet someone, everyone is given the benefit of the doubt that they are a
respectable individual. Questioning their integrity(respect) before you have even met them

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 42


and "expecting" respect to be given without giving it yourself is insulting and
condescending to that person and is judging them in a negative light when you know
absolutely nothing about them. Thus, To get respect, you must give it. So respectful
behavior should just be part of how you act as a person 100% of the time. Everyone
deserves a basic amount of respect as an individual until proven otherwise. So respect
authority and the rule of law. Give respect and pay courtesy to our traffic enforcers because
“they are just doing their jobs.”

HOW TO AVOID TRAFFIC TICKET?

Tens of millions of traffic tickets are issued each year, raking in big revenue for state and
local coffers. For the motorist, even one speeding ticket can raise your insurance premiums
for several years, and multiple violations can push your rates through the roof. Fortunately,
many tickets can be avoided with by following a few simple guidelines.

1. Drive Safely

2. Obey the rules of the road.


• Don’t break traffic laws, and you won’t get ticketed. Ignorance is no excuse. Traffic laws
also vary from state to state and even from town to town, so do some research if you’re
driving away from home.

3. Practice defensive driving.


• Aggressive or erratic driving can irritate other drivers and put both of you in danger.
Even if you’re not breaking any laws, weaving in and out of lanes and stopping or
accelerating quickly can bring you unwanted attention from police. Consider taking a
defensive driving course.

4..Wear your seat belt.

• It's the law pretty much everywhere, and an iron-clad excuse for a sharp-eyed officer to
pull you over.
When catching cops and in getting Pulled Over:

1. Be polite and know the protocol.


• If you do get pulled over, you may still be able to get away with a warning if you’re
courteous.
• When the officer comes to your window, greet him or her with respectful words, such as
"Good evening, officer.”
• Don’t start arguments or act irritated or belligerent, and don’t make dumb excuses.
• Be nice and you may get some pity. If you’ve already broken a traffic law, you can’t make
things any better by being a jerk.
• Make the police officer feel safe if you get pulled over. Police officers have a dangerous
job, and they know that any routine traffic stop can turn lifethreatening. If you can put an
officer at ease, it makes his or her job a little less stressful and he or she may thank you for
it by letting you off with a warning.
• Pull over when you see the police officer signal for you to pull over. Look for a safe area
where the officer can stand beside your car and not risk his own life with passing traffic.
• Pull into a parking lot if you can; but always signal to the officer to show that you aren't
avoiding him. This can be accomplished by flipping on your right blinker. If you must pull
over to the side of the road, the right shoulder is almost always safer for both you and the
officer.
• Park your vehicle so that you cannot drive forward. For example, pull right up to a wall.
Then the officer can park right behind you without worrying that you will try to drive away
and escape.
• Turn off your car, and possibly remove the keys from the ignition.
• If it is nighttime, turn on as many interior lights as possible.
• Remain in the car. Do not move to leave the car at any time during the stop unless you
are asked to do so.

2. Avoid admissions of guilt (or don't). • When the officer asks you if you know why you
were pulled over, never admit to anything if you intend to later fight the ticket. If you do
get a ticket, your admission can be used against you in court. • If you think you might get
away with a warning, you can try being completely honest. The officer may appreciate your
honesty and be more likely to let you off with a warning. It’s a tough choice to make, but do
your best to analyze the situation and the officer’s demeanor, and hopefully you’ll make the
right decision.

3. Contest a ticket. • If you can’t avoid a ticket, consider fighting it through the legal
system. Sometimes, just showing up indicates you are more responsible than other
motorists. Dress well, and be prepared to argue your side of the case without emotion and
with as much supporting material as you can provide. Depending on the judge and the

CBLMs on Driving NC II OBEY and OBSERVE TRAFFIC RULES AND REGULATIONS

Date Developed: JUNE 2021

COMPILED BY: ROBERT A. DELFIN Page 45


jurisdiction, the judge may give you some leniency. 4. Don't think that the cop will be
unlikely to appear in court if you challenge your ticket. • Many jurisdictions pay overtime
or more for time spent in court. In some circumstances since the officer is being paid
overtime for being in court, he or she may act in your favor for dismissal of the ticket - that
is, if you were polite and respectful when receiving the citation. Tips Don't lie. Police
officers do this many times every day and your body language will probably give you away.
Don’t come up with any lame excuses; the police officer has heard them all, and some of
those 'excuses' can easily turn into additional tickets. For instance, claiming you were
"only" coasting down a hill is actually an additional infraction in many jurisdictions.
"Distracted driving" is also a growing new category of potential bonus-offenses.

Warnings

Be careful with trying to flirt your way out of a ticket. Some officers will play along, while
others will be offended and come down harsher on you for this gamble. Being rude,
obnoxious or demanding never helps. Be respectful. Try to chat with the officer and be
polite. The best way to avoid getting a ticket is to drive within the law. Do not threaten the
police officer with comments such as "I’ll see you in court." Be aware that in most
jurisdictions, going 15 mph (24 km/h) over the speed limit not only counts as speeding,
but qualifies you for a significantly more expensive reckless driving citation.
