This is a common aha moment when working with new drivers. In fact, I work with many experienced drivers from other countries and I was very surprised when I asked them what percentage of the signs they read. Most answered with the exact same response…


Oh I only read the important ones.


WOW!


How do you know which ones are the unimp[ortant ones when you don’t read them?


40% was the most common result once I showed them what I wanted them to read. After several exercises and clients taking home the homework assignment (SHHH secret)


they all came back and said to me…


WOW! IT REALLY HELPS WHEN YOU READ THE SIGNS!

“Yes, a key part of my training is helping drivers notice the obvious—things that are right in front of them but may be overlooked. It reminds me of a specialist I waited eight months to see. He found a bone fragment in my shoulder that five other doctors had missed. The expert went back to the basics, carefully re-examining the X-ray, and together we saw the white bone splinters that had been overlooked by others.”


EXPERTS DO THE BASICS EVERY TIME OVER AND OVER AGAIN

A COOPER OPINION


Experiencing a sense of overwhelm while driving brings a heightened awareness of the formidable forces and potential risks in your surroundings. This feeling is a result of acknowledging the substantial mass and speed at play, emphasizing the significant responsibility and danger associated with operating a vehicle.


Driving is a complex interplay of physics, momentum, and speed, and this complexity contributes to the potentially fatal outcomes of accidents. The sensation of being overwhelmed signifies a profound awareness of the inherent dangers in driving, a realization that many people might overlook in their daily routines.


This overwhelming feeling may subconsciously underscore the recognition of the responsibility and delicate balance one must maintain while navigating through traffic. Your perspective appreciates the powerful and potentially hazardous nature of the machinery involved in driving.


The question now becomes, what do you do next?

Develop the practice of thoroughly reading signs and road markings while driving. Numerous clients who adopt this habit often express their surprise, exclaiming, “It’s much easier and more comfortable when you pay attention to all the signs!”


This uncomplicated solution involves a smart habit that, surprisingly, many people overlook. The process of cultivating this habit is straightforward and yields significant benefits. Give it a try. Starting now, as you walk anywhere, make a conscious effort to read every sign you encounter, including all paint markings on the ground and overhead signage. After just one day, assess and compare the percentage of signs you now read with what you used to read before coming across this post.


As emphasized by COOPER, driving comprises an interconnected system of habits. Altering one habit can subtly influence and transform many others.
