A traffic light is a signaling device positioned at road intersections, pedestrian crossings, and other locations to control flows of traffic. It typically consists of red, yellow, and green lights, each with specific meanings. In the video script, traffic lights are mentioned in various contexts, such as 'prepare to stop' for yellow lights and 'dangerous right curve ahead' for red lights, indicating the importance of understanding traffic light signals for safe driving.

💡Rest Stops

Rest stops are designated areas along highways where drivers can pull over to rest, stretch, use restrooms, or get food and drink. The script emphasizes the need for planning rest stops during long trips to avoid mental and physical fatigue, which can impair driving ability. This highlights the importance of rest stops in maintaining driver alertness and road safety.

💡R.A. 10666

R.A. 10666, also known as the 'Children's Safety on Motorcycles Act', is a Philippine law that mandates safety requirements for children riding motorcycles. The script mentions this law in the context of a child's proper seating position and the necessity of wearing a standard protective helmet. This keyword is crucial as it reflects the video's focus on legal compliance and child safety in traffic.

💡Rumble Strips

Rumble strips are a series of intermittent, rough, and noisy road surface patterns designed to alert drivers that they are drifting out of their lane or off the road. The script mentions rumble strips as a way to make drivers alert and aware of their speed, illustrating their role in enhancing road safety by preventing accidents caused by inattention or drowsiness.

💡Engine Oil Level

Checking the engine oil level is a routine maintenance task for vehicle owners. The script advises checking the oil level when the engine is cold, which is the proper time to ensure an accurate reading. This keyword is relevant to the video's theme as it underscores the importance of regular vehicle maintenance for safe and efficient driving.

💡Yellow Box Pavement Marking

A yellow box pavement marking is a traffic sign painted within intersections to indicate areas where vehicles are not allowed to stop. The script uses this keyword to explain what drivers should do if they are already within the intersection when the light turns yellow, emphasizing the need to follow traffic rules to prevent congestion and accidents.

💡Student Driver's Permit

A student driver's permit is an authorization granted by the Land Transportation Office (LTO) to individuals who wish to learn to operate a motor vehicle. The script mentions that this permit is valid for a period of one year, which is a key concept for new drivers as it sets the timeframe within which they must acquire driving skills and pass the necessary tests.

Potholes are depressions or holes that form in roads, often due to weathering or wear and tear. The script advises drivers to decrease speed when driving on a highway with many potholes to avoid damage to their vehicle or loss of control. This keyword is relevant as it highlights the need for adaptability and caution when encountering road conditions that can compromise safety.

💡Center Stand

A center stand is a type of motorcycle stand that supports the bike's center of gravity, allowing it to be parked upright without the need for a side stand. The script mentions using a center stand when parking overnight, which is an important tip for motorcycle owners to prevent theft and ensure the bike's stability.

💡Flashing Yellow Light

A flashing yellow light on a vehicle indicates that it is a slow-moving vehicle, such as a road maintenance truck or a vehicle with a malfunctioning brake system.
