Answers
Father, mother, son, daughter, they all have their own ways of getting mad. Some slam on the brakes, jump out of their cars, open the trunks and grab anything that they get their hands on. Others use baseball bats, knives, mace, pepper spray, fists, or some simply pull out a pistol and start firing away. Why are these drivers turning their anger and frustrations into road rage and what solutions can we find to stop this road rage?
Some say that one of the main causes of aggressive driving which usually leads to road rage is highway congestion. The road construction on the major interstates adds to
lane closures and distractions to motorists. A motorist is driving the speed limit and then immediately has to slam on their brakes because another motorist sees the lane closures and decides to cut in front of them. This type of driving makes motorists mad becausethey know that the driver that has just cut in front of them has seen the construction signs and were well aware of the lane closures. But they still decided to wait to the last minute to get over.

Vehicles were invented for the convenience of man, but see their travesty; they
have become a nuisance and a source of so much inconvenience for him! You must
be wondering whether vehicles have gone amok. No! It is the foolish man who has
gone berserk! Vehicles on their own don't knock anyone down. It is the
careless, indifferent man behind the wheel that makes the vehicles behave
violently. Driving without care for others' safety is the sole cause of
accidents. Added to it is the poor implementation of the traffic rules by the
incompetent traffic control department. As a result hundreds of people either
get killed or maimed.
The teenagers can be seen zapping motor bikes, and cars on crowded roads. They neither have the driving sense, nor any care for others’ safety, which often results in accidents. Most of the news on media about accidents show teenagers fault. According to Road Accident Statistics India 1214 road crashes occur every day in India. 20 children under the age of 14 die every day due to road crashes in the country. One serious road accident in the country occurs every minute and 16 people die on Indian roads every hour.
Keeping in mind the shocking statistics, it becomes imperative to introduce learning road safety measures at schools. Schools must make road safety measures an integral part of curriculum. The traffic police must give training of road safety measures to students. They can be taken to road safety learning parks and trained there.
Parents must be included in the road safety programmes. They must be taught not to give vehicles to their children. The traffic police must organize vehicle training sessions in schools. The students must be given demonstrations on safe driving skills. The government must take stricter actions against the defaulters. People also, while driving must be more vigilant and ensure they follow all the safety rules meticulously.
