Over the years, a subtle shift has occurred on our roads. Not only in the number of vehicles we see or the technology we use, but in the mindset of the people behind the wheel.
There was a time when road safety was a personal matter. When the Highway Code mattered. When courtesy was expected, and when slowing down for others wasn’t seen as an inconvenience but as a duty.
Today, things feel different.
More drivers are skipping the basics. Tailgating, speeding, phone distractions, drifting between lanes, and ignoring red lights have become so common that many no longer recognise them as dangerous. Indicators are forgotten. Amber lights are misread as invitations to hurry. And the horn, once a warning tool, is now used to release frustration.
– Impatience has become normal
– Impatience with learners,
– Impatience with cyclists,
– Impatience with anyone driving safely instead of recklessly.
Visible policing has faded. And with it, the discipline it once brought. In its place is a culture where risky behaviour is shrugged off as “just how people drive now.” But normal does not mean acceptable. And it definitely does not mean safe.
As we head into the Christmas season — a time when roads are busier, emotions are higher, and families are travelling — every driver has a choice.
- A choice to set the tone.
- To make calm the standard, not the exception.
- To choose patience instead of pressure.
- Awareness instead of assumption.
- Courtesy instead of conflict.
Real confidence on the road doesn’t come from matching the chaos around you. It comes from resisting it.
- From sticking to the rules.
- From planning your journeys.
- From keeping a level head when others don’t.
- From being the driver your family trusts.
Confidence can be rebuilt through better habits, through self-discipline, and through setting an example for the next generation of road users. Yes, the roads have changed. But our standards don’t have to.
So this Christmas:
- Be the driver who slows down when others speed up.
- Be the calm in the noise.
- Be the reason someone gets home safely.
And if your vehicle lets you down along the way…
