Erica Linzey founded Linzey Dog Grooming in 2012 with the aim of
providing a quality service to people in Davis, California. In addition
to working with the dogs she is asked to groom, she also takes
responsibility for driving them to and from different locations. This
means that she needs to avoid many of the common mistakes that drivers
tend to make, which include all of the below.
Poor Seat Positioning
It is remarkable how much of a difference the position of your seat can make to your driving. Being too far back may result in you stretching for the wheel or pedals, which means that you have less control over the vehicle. As such, you need to take the time to find the right seat position so that you can drive safely at all times.
Not Checking Blind Spots
Every vehicle has a blind spot that can’t be checked by looking in your mirrors. This means that it is important that you check it yourself before you pull away. This should usually be as simple as a quick glance over your shoulder to make sure nothing is coming, but failure to check could result in an accident being caused.
Poor Signals
As a road user, Erica Linzey understands how important it is for the drivers around her to understand what she is doing, so that they can react accordingly. Many drivers, even those with a lot of experience, will often fail to use their signals correctly, which confuses other road users and increases the chances of accidents happening.
