Explanation:
Road rage is aggressive or angry behavior exhibited by a driver of a road vehicle. These behaviors include rude and offensive gestures, verbal insults, physical threats or dangerous driving methods targeted toward another driver or non-drivers such as pedestrians or cyclists in an effort to intimidate or release frustration. Road rage can lead to altercations, assaults and collisions that result in serious physical injuries or even death. Strategies include long horn honks, swerving, tailgating, brake checking, and attempting to fight.
Road rage is alarmingly common, with an AAA report finding that nearly 80 percent of drivers experience some form of aggression behind the wheel.I use the word “experience” and not “enact” because as someone who can flare up in frustration at another driver’s action (or inaction), my road rage has felt more like a subjective happening than an intentional act. The “rage” feels like a reflex, rather than a choice, and one that is powerful enough to cause me to switch from a pleasant mood to a foul one in the blink of a turn signal light.

Driving can be dreadful, and not only because it’s teeming with risk (nearly 1.25 million people die every year in car accidents) and the roads are increasingly crowded (ASCE’s 2017 Infrastructure Report Card found that more than two out of every five miles of U.S interstates are congested, with traffic delays costing $160 billion in wasted fuel and time), but also because it can make us pretty angry.
I’m talking about road rage — and not just the dramatic potentially deadly blow-ups implied by the term (which fittingly was coined in Los Angeles, in the late ‘80s) — but also the more passive and subdued iterations of anger, petulance or just pure carelessness that can prove dangerous.
It's not just honking — even texting provokes road rage
A new survey from Farah and Farah, a personal injury law firm, identified 12 behaviors that drivers might interpret as road rage.
The list includes making rude gestures, honking, tailgating and texting while driving, among others.

How to tell if you're too tired to drive — and what to do if you are
“Texting while driving was an instance where we saw a high proportion, [nearly 60 percent] of people who considered it to be aggressive,” says Matt Gillespie, a project manager at the PR firm Fractl, who worked with Farah and Farah on the survey.
“Years ago, the term ‘road rage’ only centered on outlandish driving behaviors — like getting out of your car to fight — but there are many other types of behaviors that may not feel aggressive to the people doing them, but are felt as aggressive to others, and ultimately that’s dangerous,” says Gillespie. “We were interested in the whole aggregate of driving behaviors, specifically in how they correlate with accidents — whether they look like road rage or not.”
