How to avoid road rage
How to avoid road rageRoad Rage is a growing problem all over the country and no one is
immune from it. It is an incident when one driver does something that
sets off another one and makes them angry. It doesn't take much. Anyone who spends any time on the road has and will continue to experience a form of Road Rage. But it is not the type that ends up with someone shot or in the hospital.

We wouldn't just give the person the middle finger or curse at them if we were face to face with them, so why would we do so if we are in a car?
Second of all you want to use your change lanes signal whenever you are about to do so. That could trigger most people if they get cut off, you want to give the person or persons in the other lanes as much time as possible to anticipate you moving in front of them.
Next, if you see someone that is tailgating you in your mirror move the right lane, if you are in the fast lane, so that they can pass you and you are not going to get hit by the person, and also do not tailgate others....
