How should she respond?
We need more frequent attention to the engine. Then we have to choose or if already teranjur buy a car, a car equipped with safety features that fit your budget.
Safety features such as what is your ideal?

How do we maintain a safe distance when driving?
Keep a safe distance from the car in front of you as far as "two seconds". If the car in front passes a 'boundary marker' or stakes, count 2 seconds (1.2.) And you also have to pass the limit sign or marker. If you pass the marker before you finish counting 2 seconds then you are driving a distance too close to the car in front of you. In case of rain or mengendarakan large vehicles, we use a count of 4 seconds (1.2.3.4.), Because the car needs more time to stop.
When driving at night?
First, Use the headlights with a state of full, so the driver can see the road ahead as far as possible. Second, do not drive a vehicle at high speed so that if there is something to be avoided we can react quickly to avoid it. And third, be wary of people or animals crossing.
How to hold the wheel?
The steering wheel like the dots hour. Align your hands. The left hand is positioned parallel to the 9 o'clock and right hand parallel to the 3 o'clock. So that our hands will not prevent the airbag inflates. Try to always look ahead as far as possible. And if we know there is a potential danger or accident situations, always trying to quickly find loopholes in order to avoid accidents. Do not ever focused on vehicles that disturb and threaten our car.
There's the last thing to say?
Enjoy it while driving. The car is something beautiful and give us freedom, but we realize it or not, the car can also have external power (potential) to harm us.
