particular skill or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally
recognized so you don't have to do the same training again. If you have a
qualification or Certificate of Competency from previous trainings, show it to
your trainer. If the skills you acquired are still current and relevant to the
unit/s of competency they may become part of the evidence you can present
for RPL. If you are not sure about the currency of your skills, discuss this
with your trainer.
This module was prepared to help you achieve the required
competency in DRIVING LIGHT VEHICLE. This will be the source of
information for you to acquire knowledge and skills in this particular trade
independently and at your own pace, with minimum supervision or help
from your instructor.

QUALIFICATION LEVEL : NC II
ASSESSMENT CRITERIA
I. Vehicle Lightning
A. Lights—the driver uses electric lightning to provide the
illumination or light needed to safely operate the vehicle. The
various lights provide vision and information to the driver,
convenience for passengers, and signals and warnings to
other drivers and pedestrians.
B. Light Bulbs
C. Headlamps
F. Turn-Signal Lights
J. Headlamp Aiming
C. Seat Belts
Seat Belts restrain the vehicle occupants if there is an
accident. After entering the car, the driver and passengers each
fasten a lap or lap-and-shoulder belt. The belt then helps hold that
person in the seat during a collision or rollover. Inertia-sensitive
retractors lock the belt in place when an impact occurs.
A passive restraint provides protection without requiring any
action by the driver or passenger. Two types of passive restraints
are air bags and motorized seat belts. These are front-seat shoulder
belts that move into position automatically. After entering the car
and closing the door, the driver turns on the ignition key. The
electric motor then pulls a cable or tape connected to the belt. The
belt travels forward and out of the way when the door opens. In
some cars with an air bag on only the driver’s side, the seatbelt for
the front-seat passenger automatically tightens in a crash. This
provides the passenger with additional protection.
C. Air bags
Caution:
Be careful when working on vehicles with air bags. You
could accidentally trigger thee system. A deploying air bag could
injure you if you are not belted in the normal seated position.
E. Windshield Wipers and Washers
Windshield wipers clean the windshield so the driver can
see clearly while driving in rain or snow. The wiper blades are
moved back and forth by linkage connected to a motor on the
firewall in the engine compartment. A switch on the steering
column or instrument pane connects the motor to the ignition
switch. The motor will run when the ignition key is in the ON or
ACC position.
The windshield-wiper switch has at least two or three
speeds. Many cars have intermittent windshield wipers. These
include an adjustable time delay between blade movements. The
wiper blades will move across and back. Pause, and then repeat
the action.
The windshield washer is a part of the windshield-wiper
system. When the driver presses a button, liquid windshield-
washer fluid squirts on the windshield. This allows the blades to
clean more effectively. Some cars have heated wind-shield
washer nozzles. This prevents ice from clogging the small holes
in cold weather.
The rear window in some cars has a similar wiper-and
washer-system. It works automatically when the windshield
washer operates.
B. Head-up Display
Images containing driving information are projected onto
the windshield. The information includes displays of vehicle
speed, turn-signal indicators, high-beam indicator, and low-fuel
warning. These images appear suspended in space near the
front bumper. The driver’s eyes do not need to move from the
road or refocus to view this information.
Only certain information from the instrument panel
appears in the head-up display. A warning CHECK GAUGES
messages appearing on the windshield alerts the driver that a
gauge on the instrument panel needs attention. Controls allow
adjustment of the head-up display brightness and vertical
location in the windshield.
D. Speed-Control System

5. A
B. Turning Tools
1. Screwdrivers—Use the proper screwdriver to drive or turn
screw. Screwdrivers are made in a variety of sizes, shapes, and
special purpose designs. The most common type has a single
flat blade for driving screws with slotted heads There are also
Torx-head and Phillips-head screws.
Always select a screw driver of the proper types and size for the
job. When using a single-blade screwdriver, the blade should
completely fill the screw slot. This helps prevent damage to the
screw head.
2. Wrenches—long-handled tool with fixed or adjustable jaws. You
use a wrench to turn bolts, nuts, and screws To work on both
USC, and metric fasteners, you need both USC and metric
wrenches. A 3/8- to 1-inch USC set and a 6- to 119-mm metric
set will handle most jobs. You need these sizes in sets of open-
end, box, and combination wrenches.
a. Open-end wrench— usually has a jaw opening at a 15
degree angle to a handle.Turn the bolt or nut as far as the
space permits. Then flip the wrench over for further turning
of the fastener.
C. Gripping tools
1. Pliers—Pliers are hand tools with a pair of adjustable pivoted
jaws for cutting or gripping .There are many styles and sizes of
pliers. Combination slip-joint pliers may have cutting edges at
the back of the jaws for wire cutting. Tongue-and-groove or
groove-and-land pliers such as Channellock pliers have the
tongues or lands to different grooves changes the distance the
jaws can open. The jaws remain parallel at any setting.
D. Cutting Tools
Cutting tools remove metal. They include chisels, hacksaws, files,
punches. Drills, taps, and dies are also cutting tools. Power cutting
tools include grinders, hones, lathes, and boring machine.
1. Chisels— The chisel is a cutting tool with a single cutting
edge. There are various sizes and shapes of chisels. Striking
the chisel with a hammer makes the chisel cut metal.Hold
the chisel with one hand and the hammer in the other. Hit
the end of the chisel squarely.. Holding the chisel in a chisel
holder or smooth-jaw locking pliers will protect your hand.
Caution:
Always wear eye protection when using a chisel.
Never use a chisel with a mushroomed head. When the
hammer strikes the head, a piece could fly off. The flying
metal could cut you or injure an unprotected eye.
2. Hacksaw—is basically an adjustable metal frame that holds
a steel saw blade .The blade is replaceable and has from14 to
32 teeth per inch. Cutting occurs on the forward stroke as
you push the blade across the metal. The teeth act like tiny
chisels and cut off fine shavings or chips.
3. Files— are used for cutting and shaping metal. They have
many cutting edges or teeth.
When the cuts are far apart, there are only a few per inch.
This is rough- or coarse-cut file. When the cuts are close
together, the file is a smooth or dead-smooth file. A single-cut
file has a series of sharp blades. A double-cut file has a
second series cut at an angle to the first. This creates a
series of sharp teeth. Various sizes and cuts of round, half-
round, flat, and triangular files are used during automotive
service work.
Always use a handle with a file. Tapping the end of the
handle on the bench tightens the file in the handle. Keep the
file teeth clean with a file card. It has short stiff-wire
bristles that remove chips and dirt from the teeth.

Tire Service
Why is it important?
Tires may wear differently depending on their position on the vehicle, your
driving style and the condition of your suspension. Regularly rotating your
tires can evenly distribute their wear—helping you get the most miles out of
your tires while maximizing traction on all four wheels.
What is the service?
Changing the position of the tires on your vehicle is according to your
vehicle and tire manufacturers’ recommended rotation pattern.
Benefit to you:
Tire Rotation Service – Helps maximize the life span of your tires.

11. Follow other cars at a safe distance. Allow at least one car
length interval for every 15 km. speed. If your speed is 30 km per
hour, your distance from the vehicle in front of should be 2 cars or 12
meters etc. In short we should always keep our distance from the
vehicle we are following. As we increase our speed our distance to the
vehicle to the vehicle we are following should be wider.
13. Make right or left turn only at correct turning lanes, right turn
from lane nearest to the curb; left turn from the lane next to the

Road Rage: How to Manage Road Rage to Stay Healthier and Safe
With more and more people in the world and in the workforce, roads are
becoming increasingly crowded. Inside our metal boxes, we’re not always as
polite as we would be to one another face-to-face, and when we’re all
frustrated with traffic, sometimes people make mistakes or pull impolite
driving maneuvers, which can lead to anger from other frustrated drivers. This
often results in road rage, which can pose a significant threat to health and
safety for everyone on the road.
People experiencing road rage may be face increased health risks that come
from high levels of stress, tension and anger. These episodes of acute stress
may become chronic stress, which leads to many negative health outcomes.
In addition to the toll stress takes on the "rager's" body, the increased risk of a
car accident due to road rage puts all drivers at risk.
By being a courteous and defensive driver, you can cut down the level of
frustration you might cause other drivers, doing your part in keeping road
rage at bay. But if you yourself experience road rage, here are some
techniques you can use to stay calm in the car:
Breathe: Breathing exercises can help you cleanse your body of stagnant
air and stale energy, getting your blood more oxygenated and, of course,
releasing tension. Focusing on your breathing brings your attention inward
and makes frustrations seem more removed, without taking your focus too
far away from the road.
Listen: Listen to music or audio books. Music can subtly color your
experiences, adding an exciting soundtrack to your commute. Audio books
can supply you with a mild distraction that can make your drive enjoyable
enough that you find annoying drivers and bumper-to-bumper traffic less
frustrating.

Joycelyn M. Tolvo
Relax: Practice Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) and Deep Muscle
Relaxation (DMR). When you’re frustrated, you store the tension in your
body. These techniques will help you learn to quickly release the tension
you’re carrying, even as you sit in the car, which will help you feel more
physically and emotionally relaxed.
Play: Use cognitive-behavioral interventions like Counting Idiots.
Basically, if you accept that a certain amount of people are going to make
fools of themselves on the road, and decide to make a game out of
counting them, you can cut down on the stress you feel in response to their
rude maneuvers.
Plan: Manage your time wisely. Often, when we’re frustrated on the road,
it’s because we’re in a hurry and can’t get there quickly enough because
of traffic. Organizing your schedule so you can leave earlier, and planning
for traffic, can leave you feeling more relaxed because it really won’t
matter as much if the trip takes a few extra minutes.

Objective: After reading the information sheet, the trainee, should be able
to enumerate fatigue management techniques.
Driver Fatigue
One of the ironies of drowsy driving is that the driver may be too tired to
determine his or her own level of fatigue. The problem, therefore, is often
ignored. Here are some warning signs of driver fatigue:
There are certain times of the day and night when our energy levels
naturally dip. These circadian rhythms are part of a normal sleep/wake
Effective driver fatigue management is essential. Here are some tips you
can use to make sure you get where you need to go safely.
If you or someone you love is feeling the physical and emotional effects of
sleep deprivation. See a physical or sleep specialist for professional
diagnosis and treatment.
Enumeration
Instruction: Enumerate the following.
Objective: After reading the information sheet, the trainee should be able to
identify a defensive Driver
A. Defensive Driving
Whether you are a person who travels to work everyday on your own or
whether you are a person who uses public transport on a daily basis,
what you need to know are the basic rules of defensive driving. Today
there are a lot of driving schools that teach you these techniques apart
from the actual driving classes that they hold. These techniques not only
help you become a good driver, but it also teaches you how to be a
responsible one as well.
These are some of the rules of defensive driving that can make driving a
pleasure both for you and for the rest the travellers on the road:
• If there is a speed limit on the road that you are travelling on, make sure
that you observe the limit. There is no fun in speeding along on a fast lane
just because you think you are going to be late for the meeting with your
boss.
• Make sure you know all the traffic signs completely. You cannot claim
ignorance of the rules, when you make a mistake.
• Respect the laws of the land in which you travel. Of course, there are
countries like Burma or India, were rules are made, so that they can be
broken as quickly as possible. Though the law tries to enforce the rule in
these places, corruption levels are so high that it is very easy to breeze
through traffic signals without stopping at a red light, because you know
there will be a cop at the other end who would let you go in return for a
small bribe.
• Respect the other drivers on the road and remember that they also have
a job to do. Nobody is driving just for the heck of it. Most of us have a job to
go to or a home to reach. Most of us are also in a hurry to get to where we
want to. Nevertheless, it is better that we respect each other and the traffic
rules as well so that driving is a more pleasurable experience.
• Do not horn or keep honking just for the sake of honking. It is very
irritating and unnerving to have a driver honking behind you. Remember he

is doing it because he is in a hurry. So, if you are in his place, you might be
tempted to do the same thing. Believe me; it does not help to keep honking.
Traffic will move at its own pace and no amount of honking is going to help.
ATTITUDE
A Defensive driver must develop and demonstrate an attitude that;
Shows concerns for other road users
Recognizes that other road users will make mistakes
Knows no journey is so urgent that a safe speed can be
maintained
Driving is a skill which requires the application of good techniques
Believes that safe driving requires an alert mind at all times
BEHAVIOR
An ideal defensive driver;
Always clean a seatbelts
Keeps within the advisory limit
Constantly scans the road for potential hazard
Signal intentions at all times

3. Here are some techniques you can use to stay calm in the car:
Breathe: Breathing exercises can help you cleanse your body of stagnant
air and stale energy, getting your blood more oxygenated and, of course,
releasing tension. Focusing on your breathing brings your attention
inward and makes frustrations seem more removed, without taking your
focus too far away from the road.
Listen: Listen to music or audio books. Music can subtly color your
experiences, adding an exciting soundtrack to your commute. Audio
books can supply you with a mild distraction that can make your drive
enjoyable enough that you find annoying drivers and bumper-to-bumper
traffic less frustrating.
Relax: Practice Progressive Muscle Relaxation (PMR) and Deep Muscle
Relaxation (DMR). When you’re frustrated, you store the tension in your
body. These techniques will help you learn to quickly release the tension
you’re carrying, even as you sit in the car, which will help you feel more
physically and emotionally relaxed.
Play: Use cognitive-behavioral interventions like Counting Idiots.

their rude maneuvers.
Plan: Manage your time wisely. Often, when we’re frustrated on the road,
it’s because we’re in a hurry and can’t get there quickly enough because
of traffic. Organizing your schedule so you can leave earlier, and
planning for traffic, can leave you feeling more relaxed because it really
won’t matter as much if the trip takes a few extra minutes.
