Weakness in driving

Philippines

I love to drive and travel to somewhere. However, as driver, I admit that I had also weaknesses when it comes to driving. One of my weaknesses is driving in the dark. Also, I hate driving during hot weather. Even my car has air condition; going out of the car during hot weather gives me severe headache. How about you mylotters, what are your weaknesses when it comes to driving?

Driving in hot weather really makes me feels sick or ill as well. But it's when air conditioning become quite handy. I think I'd never drive without turn air condition on.

Same here. There are cases especially summer that even there I turn aircondition on, the heat was still prevailing. This gives me a bad headache.

I do not know driving. But I can understand how you feel about driving in the dark; it is better to be safe than sorry.

Yes, it is really hard to drive with such circumstances so better look for the safety side before making the drive.

Hi, I was a driver once but when my license expired, I never bothered to renew it. I feel I don't want to drive anymore. Like you, I hate the hot weather and night driving especially when in heavy rains. I prefer to take a taxi or a public transport where I can relax on the way, another person shall do the work of driving. In due time, when I shall have to buy my own car, I would hire a driver to do the driving while I can sit back and enjoy the trip.

That is one of my weakness too during heavy rains especially in the expressways where the visibility is really poor. This reminds me that I should renew my licensed since it will be expire today.

Just like you I want to overcome those weaknesses. One thing I did is to travel in the morning or late afternoon so that the heat is not that extreme. Also, I tried to drive not at night but at dawn.

I can not drive at all My boyfriend asking me to sign in driving school but I don't feel like to do it. Driving scare me eventhough sometimes I find it must be so cool if I can drive around and have short trip with my boyfriend if he come to visit me again. I remember a year ago one of my friend have car crash, not bad crash. She said it because she was dehydrated, she used to take water with her while if she will drive her car but she forgot to bring or buy mineral water that day and dehydrate caused her loosing consentration.

That is another rare situation. Just by becoming dehydration, you will loose control in driving. In my case, even I am a bit sleepy, I still manage to control my driving.

Hello friend..., I am not a driver and I cannot drive a car. But I can give you a little advice for you. If you don't like driving in the dark try to go in the day and avoid to go in the night or make sure your lamp help you watch the way. If you hate driving in the hot weather, try to provide cool drinking to help your body from the hot weather. I hope these can help you...thank.

Thanks for the tips. What really makes me weak in the dark is that there are many things that might cross the road including running people along the road or vehicles that has no light like bicycle and motorcycles. You will surprised that they are already in front of you. When it comes to water, I always have water on my side when driving.
