Speeding/ aggressive driving

Aggressive driving behaviour takes many forms. Typical aggressive driving behaviours include speeding, driving too close to the car in front, not respecting traffic regulations, improper lane changing or weaving, etc. The list is long. Most people drive aggressively from time to time and many drivers are not even aware when they are doing it. Motor vehicle accidents (MVAs) are a leadin cause of accidental death and injury, and agressive driving has been identified as a risk factor for MVAs. Assesing psychiatric and behavioral disturbances in aggressive drivers is germane to the development of prevvention and intervention programs for this population.
