"Hi this is Casey Atkinson from Willie Driving School here in Logan, Utah. I'm going to talk to you a bit about just basic driving rules when you first start driving. First things first, here in America, this ain't jolly England we stay on the right side of the road. Now let's talk about stop signs. When you pull up to a stop sign make sure you signal, if you are going to turn make sure you signal about two seconds before you get there. That way cars behind you don't have to read your mind they'll know where you are going and avoid an accident that way. Watch out for pedestrians, manslaughter charges don't look good on any record. Also for yield signs pull up slowly check for traffic and go when it's safe. Main thing with driving is follow the laws, all the rules of the road you know don't speed, don't do anything stupid and pay attention to the road and you'll be alright. There's things you always want to do when driving that is signal, check your blind spot and check your mirrors. So when, lets say you are pulling into an intersection and you are turning right, check your, you want to signal right first, then look over your right shoulder to check your blind spot, that's a place to the side of your car you can't see with your mirrors. Once you know nothing is there then you can start turning. Also check your mirrors, look behind you, make sure no one is following too close. Basically when you are driving always know what's around your car and that way you'll be safe."
