Learning To Drive (Again)

I'm working on obtaining my third driver's license. As I study for my Korean test, I found these rules a little funny.

1. Do not leave your vehicle on the road to engage in a quarrel or fight.
2. Do not let your passengers engage in disturbing behavior in your vehicle, like dancing, which my hinder safe driving.

Some other driving tips from the manual...
1. When drivers fell the following, it indicates they are tired - Continuous yawning, heavy eyelids, bloodshot or dim eyes, blurred vision or difficulty in maintaining lanes, feeling hungry or thirsty, wet palms, stiff necks or cramps in the hands, nervousness or difficulty in paying attention to driving, hallucinations, slowing down of reactions, HEARING SNORING SOUND, repetitive speeding up and slowing down unconsciously.
2. Most of all, drivers should not put themselves in dangerous situations. Leave cars at home when they have appointments to drink.
3. Driving attitudes reveal the driver's characters. Unnecessary use of horns, shameful intrusion, sudden passing, forcing the preceding vehicle to speed up by giving threatening signs or approaching too closely, making insulting remarks to the drivers who make mistakes, etc. REVEAL THEIR NARROW-MINDED OR TWISTED CHARACTERS. Drivers should try to make every driver's driving pleasant and comfortable through pre-planning, consideration and concession.
4. Some drivers pass other vehicles or speed up illegally due to a lack of understanding or patience. These attitudes break mutual trust and trigger competition, thus resulting in accidents.
5. The reason that night driving is more dangerous than day driving is because you can only see what your headlights display and your are less visible to other drivers.
