Review
"...the definitive book on the aggressive driving epidemic..." -- Palo Alto Daily News, November 4, 2000
Product Description
Do you want to keep your cool in the age of rage? Do you try to get where you're going in the shortest possible time? Do you cuss at or retaliate against "pushy" drivers? Do you ever feel like giving a tailgater a "brake job"? Do you regularly take risks and exceed speed limits?
Drivers inherit the seeds of aggressiveness and territoriality from parents and the media. Road Rage and Aggressive Driving examines the psycho-legal context of a growing social epidemic and provides instructions for putting the brakes on highway aggression by restoring civility and safety to our roads.
