ROAD RAGE
Road rage is real. Anger and driving don't mix. Behind the wheel is no place for aggression. But more and more people are letting their emotions get the best of them. One report states that during the first six years of the 90's, over 10,000 incidents of road rage were reported. People zigzagging in and out of traffic. Someone cutting some else off. Tailgating for long distances. All of these can lead to collisions, disputes, even death. Impatience is one of the prime causes. It leads to risk-taking, which can lead to discourteous driving, which can lead to disputes. Being more patient behind the wheel will go a long way toward keeping you out of the way of road rage.
