What is S.P.I.D.E.R. ?
S.P.I.D.E.R. , before being delved into as a method, can be visualized as a verb that defines a series of actions or behaviors aimed at promoting safety. Just as spiders skillfully and anticipatorily weave their webs to trap prey and deter predators, using the SPIDER method as a verb means to:
• Scan your surroundings actively.
• Predict potential hazards.
• Identify risks in real-time.
• Decide the best course of action.
• Execute your decision effectively.
• Review the outcome and adapt accordingly.
By implementing SPIDER as an active process, drivers can work towards creating a culture of driving where safety is the priority.
