We often joke about Road Rage, but it is a serious problem. Road Rage can result in collisions, assault, altercations, injuries and even death. If people drive responsibly, they can help make our roads safer from road rage. Here are a few tips to help you combat the signs of road rage…

Leave your problems at home or at work … don’t let them consume you while you’re driving.

Plan your route ahead of time so there is little frustration with directions.

Make several stops to re-focus on long drives.

Be courteous in busy intersections.

Don’t get mad or retaliate towards other driver’s mistakes.

Be safe out there…and remember, if you think you’re being followed, don’t drive home-go to the nearest Police station or busy public place.
