4. DO: this could be You! INCREASE YOUR POPULARITY. Listen to an extra dose of informative Radio on your way to/from work—nothing screams “cool coworker” like someone who is always in the loop! www.gillmanins.com

5. DO: BREATHE. You may be thinking, “I’m pretty sure this is something I do almost every ride anyway.” BUT we encourage you to use your extra car-time to relax—do breathing exercises, listen to calming music and scent your car with eucalyptus. You’ll arrive to work revived and refreshed! Bye, bye under-eye circles! www.gillmanins.com

6. DO: TAKE TIME TO just THINK! Turn off all music and eliminate non-driving related distractions. In our busy, busy world, we don’t have many moments alone. We’re always being beckoned this way or that way… but not when we’re stuck in traffic! Look at your next traffic jam from the angel of your gas-tank half full! Make it a time to just think and stay tuned with your inner voice! www.gillmanins.com

8. DON’T: Do NOT put on Makeup! We know it’s tempting when you look in your rear-view and see mascara-less eyelashes. But, dark lashes aren’t worth the increased risks of having an accident.

We promise, looking good is the last thing you’ll be worrying about when you’ve lost your focus on the road. www.gillmanins.com

9. DON’T: DON’T CATCH UP ON READING! This one is simple—you can’t have your eyes in two places at once. Don’t try to catch a break while driving to finish reading an article or look over a paper.
