At times we all get angry when we are driving. It might be because we are stuck in a traffic jam or behind a very slow driver. It might be because we think another driver has done something very stupid and dangerous. Whatever the reason is, it seems that getting angry in a car is something that happens more and more often and there  is now a special term for it—road rage. Some experts even think it is a kind of mental illness! How can we recognize (识别) this “illness” of road rage?

There are two kinds of road rage: aggressive (侵略的) driving and aggressive reactions(反应) to the way other people are driving. Aggressive driving can take different forms:

●Driving much faster than the speed limit.

●Increasing your speed very quickly.

●Changing driving ways very suddenly and blocking another car.

●Moving into a parking space where another car is trying to park.

There are also different reactions to the way other people are driving. These include:

●Making rude signs at others.

●Shouting at others and threatening them.

●Driving into another person’s car on purpose.

●Hitting somebody.

Road rage is certainly not a joke. There have been incidents (严重事件) because of road rage which have led to serious injuries (重伤) and even deaths.

Experts think that one reason for road rage is that films show a lot of examples of fast and aggressive driving such as car chases. Experts also think that the punishments for dangerous driving are not serious enough. In the UK in the last 30 years, the police have been quite successful in reducing the number of people who drink and drive. They are now working to stop people using mobile phones when they are driving. Let’s hope they can have the same success with the road rage.
