driving carefully... in Israel - http://ktzat-ivrit.ulpan.com

זהירות

Driving conscientiously, defensively and carefully prevents car accidents (I think money should be spent developing an automated personal transport system - that would really save lives).

As an Israeli parts from his friend who has a drive ahead of him, he is likely to say to him, סַע בִּזְהִירוּת (sa biz-hee-ROOT), or travel carefully. To wish a woman the same, say, סְעִי בזהירות (s'ee biz-hee-ROOT).

The English-speaking population in Israel has tons to contribute. Patient driving habits is one thing... so סְעוּ בזהירות (s'oo - the plural)!
