Healthy Driving Strategies:  Dealing with Road Rage

 

As a driver, it’s easy to get angry…

“Road rage” can be an unwelcome, but defining moment in the lives of many of us.  How drivers handle Road Rage has a big impact on how we fare on the highway, both today and tomorrow.

Drivers with “road rage” experience high levels of stress but demonstrate a lack of coping skills to deal with it.  When drivers explained why they became violent the reasons they gave were often incredibly trivial: “She wouldn’t let me pass,”  “They kept tailgating me,” or, as one driver accused of murder explained, “He practically ran me off the road—what was I supposed to do?”

The latest AAA Foundation study found that men and women of all ages and walks of life can develop “road rage” if they are in the wrong mood or circumstances.
