Aggressive driving
What are 5 examples of aggressive driving?
Aggressive driving behaviors include a range of actions that stem from anger and impatience.
These behaviors include:
Excessive speeding
Driving well above the posted speed limits or too fast for road and traffic conditions can lead to reduced vehicle control and decreased reaction times.
Tailgating
Following other vehicles too closely with minimal space between them, is dangerous because it limits the reaction time available to both drivers.
Erratic lane changing
Frequent and abrupt lane changes without signaling or checking blind spots can startle other drivers, causing them to react hastily.
Running red lights/stop signs
Disregarding traffic signals and stop signs is a severe violation of road rules. It can result in T-bone accidents at intersections, where vehicles collide at high speeds and with significant force.
Road rage
Engaging in aggressive or confrontational behavior towards other drivers, such as shouting, gesturing, or intentionally blocking their path, escalates tensions and can lead to collisions or physical altercations.
