From 1969 to 1990 the number of women licensed to drive increased 84 percent. Between 1970 and 1987, the number of cars on the road more than doubled. The peak moment for aggressive driving seems to come not during gridlock but just before, when traffic density is high but cars are still moving briskly, James said. That's when cutting someone off or forcing someone out of a lane can seem to make the difference between being on time and being late. It's like the less time we spend commuting the more points we give ourselves.
Women are more seethers.
But road rage also can be passive-aggressive. They know how mad it makes the other drivers and that's why it's a hostile action. Driving is a group activity. Come up swinging positive. If you make a mistake like cutting another driver off, act apologetically.
