While everyone on the road has somewhere to go, it seems as if some drivers are more in a rush than others. Rather than being content to follow the rules of the road, including the speed limit, some drivers are aggressive and pose an increased risk to others. Another sign of an impatient or aggressive driver is the following distance. A recommended following distance exists to allow drivers the time necessary to come to a stop without hitting the other vehicle. When drivers are not following these safety precautions, they are more likely to cause a rear-end collision.
