These bad driving behaviors became clear to me while I took on the role of Being a Driving Buddy for my first Traffic Psychology report. In this experiment I saw many of my own driving behaviors manifested in that of my friend. This type of modeling that I saw led me to realize I needed a change as well. Traffic Psychology can serve to educate all drivers. Through this discipline, drivers can become enlightened on aspects of their own driving behavior as well as those of others.
Traffic psychology can serve to further sensitize even the most hardened aggressive drivers.
Relearning can then occur, in which various bad driving behaviors modeled on such mediums as television and the movies, can then be scrutiinized and disuaded from ever reappearing in real-life situations. In this modern society, almost every individual will in some way become a part of the traffic situation. It is important to stress that Traffic Psychology is not solely for motorists, but also bicyclists, moped riders, and pedestrians. Due to this fact, I would encourage all to familiarize themselves with the concepts and principles that make up the discipline of Traffic Psychology. Our road ways will be safer if everyone would do this.
