In the age of fax machines, cellular phones, and the Internet, we do not like to wait for anything, and getting cut off or stuck in traffic makes us angry. Our objective is to increase the motoring public's awareness of aggressive driving behavior through self evaluations, public information and education, and enforcement to improve driving behavior. Police intend to take enforcement action, but it will take time and a combination of all of these actions to improve the situation. There is no one profile of an aggressive driver. Some have suggested that young, poorly educated males with histories of violence and criminal activity are more likely to engage in aggressive driving.
Aggressive drivers are determined to be first to get to a destination.
They overreact when challenged, fail to pay attention, tailgate, make frequent and unnecessary lane changes, run stop lights, and speed. Their unsafe and unlawful driving behavior shows a general disregard for public safety. When you come into contact with an aggressive driver zigzagging between lanes, tailgating, and creating a menace, do your best to stay out of this driver's way. Do not make eye contact or obscene gestures to provoke the other driver. If the other driver challenges you, take a deep breath and get out of the way.
