Here's what they all mean:

AWARENESS

Situation

Hazards

Perceiving any hazards in a timely manner that require a braking or steering response. (Hazard perception time, the time it takes to perceive hazards, directly relates to crash risk).

Rules

Knowing and applying traffic rules in all traffic situations.

Others make mistakes

Applying defensive driving strategies that allow other drivers to make mistakes without putting them at risk. (For example: Keeping a safe following distance).

Our mistakes

Being aware of our mistakes (e.g., incorrect signaling in roundabouts) and trying to avoid making them in the future.

RISK MANAGEMENT

Fatigue

Being aware of signs of driver fatigue and knowing how to counteract them.

Road Conditions

Being aware of challenging road conditions (e.g., heavy rain) and how to respond to them (e.g., slowing down, headlights on).

Distraction

Being aware of any distractions (e.g., ringing of mobile phone, mind wandering) and how to get back of being focused (e.g., mindful driving, switch off mobile phone)

Hazard Anticipation

Being able to ‘read the road’ and to anticipate what potential hazards might become immediate hazards requiring some driving manoeuvers (braking or steering away from the hazard).

Attitude

Applying a mind-set of being a responsible, attentive, mindful, and cautious driver.
