Section # 2 Objectives Explain how social, physical and mental skills work together in your driving task Name the four steps in the IPDE process
The driving task includes all the social, physical, and mental skills required to drive. To perform the driving task with low-risk results, you must develop habits for • Using knowledge and visual skills • Obeying traffic laws • Judging time and space • Anticipating how your car will respond under normal and emergency conditions
Social Skills • Like other social tasks, driving requires you to interact successfully with people. Be courteous • Without courtesy and cooperation, low-risk driving is impossible.
Physical Skills • You must learn the physical skills of driving so well that they become natural habits. Please practice
Mental Skills • Safe, low-risk driving is primarily a mental task that involves decision making.
The IPDE Process • The IPDE process is a process of seeing, thinking, and responding. The four steps of this process are • Identify: Look ahead 12-15 sec • Predict: when and where possible points of conflict will develop • Decide: when, where, and how to communicate, adjust speed, and/or change position to avoid conflict • Execute: the right action to prevent conflict.
