Common Causes of Car Accidents #19: Impatient Drivers.

We’ve all been there: you’re sitting at a red light waiting to turn right, or yielding on an off ramp as you wait to safely merge, and the person behind you starts beeping to move your vehicle. Maybe they even lay into the horn or attempt to drive around you. Never let impatient drivers pressure you into acting against your better judgment.

You are not responsible for another driver’s decisions on the road. Drivers who are impatient or in a rush can make reckless choices such as unsafe lane changes, weaving through traffic, speeding, or failing to stop at a red light or stop sign. Impatient or aggressive driving is a large contributor to serious car crashes, including those with fatalities.

Stay aware of an impatient driver and be prepared to act appropriately to protect yourself and others on the road.
