Safety Tip from Throttle - Target Fixation

Return to tip of the week

Concentrate where you want to go not necessarily on the danger. When scanning, if you perceive a danger, acknowledge the danger and immediately focus on where you need to go and what you need to do to avoid the danger. Focus on surviving not dying.

Concentrate on surviving not colliding!

For questions, comments, or suggestions on safety tips please contact Rob 'Throttle' Capozzi.
