Playing it Safe on the Roads at Christmas
The end up the year is creeping up with Christmas and New Year celebrations just waiting to get into full swing. For many, this can involve a lot of driving and attention to pay on the roads.
These days, we have GPS to help us get from A to B and other tools that warn us about fixed speed cameras, frequent spots where the police may lurk. There are also other deterrents such as breath test units, highway patrols and double demerits. While technology may seem like it can be one or two steps ahead of the local authorities there’s no substitute for playing it safe and obeying the rules.
So please:
- take it easy on the roads and drive at a safe and legal speed,
- appoint a designated driver,
- pull over if you need to muck around with gadgets,
- have a nap or swap drivers if you feel drowsy.
As much as technology can warn you about certain things it can also be used against you if you are caught doing the wrong thing. There’s no substitute for being consistently safe and sensible particularly at this time of year.

In 2012, I obtained my Masters of Science in Information Technology through the University of New South Wales @ The Australia Defence Force Academy (UNSW@ADFA).
I was also part of an online community known as the Panasonic Insider Crew in the capacity of “Insider Guru” for Panasonic Australia where I interacted with other tech enthusiasts and find out more about Panasonic's latest gadgets.
I love technology, gadgets, and the Internet and maintain a keen interest in these areas locally, nationally, and globally. I hope by sharing my views on these topics that people will receive an honest point of view from someone with a genuine interest in these topics.
