You might be and not know it! ! Do you -- Drive up to a junction /island and brake hard Cause other drivers to brake sharply Think a car parked on the other side of the road gives you priority over oncoming traffic so always keep going Accelerate quickly from junctions Arrive late frequently after journeys Get angry while driving Blame other drivers Think going faster gets you there quicker ? If you answer yes to most of the above then you probably are a aggressive driver, not only are you more likely to have a accident you are probably using a lot more fuel than you need to and causing extra wear to your vehicle. Part of a truck drivers course i went on recently thought i would share
2 of them for me, But if a car is parked on the other side of the road it is my right of way, if i had to draw it for an insurance claim the 1st thing i would point out is who is on the right side of the white line, and i drive a company van so its always my right of way unless a company van coming the other way is dirtier older and bigger than mine and i'm sure its something to with physics that the faster you go the quicker you get there
Mh driving faster in a straight race yes around town not always quicker over all and quite often slower.
Most of it is about having a chilled state of mind while driving which helps you make fewer rash decision, like giving way to oncoming traffic when its clearly your right of way ie vehicle parked on other side of road, it isn't about your legal rights or one upmanship.
after years of commuting im quite happy to do none of the above ... ) [except when im on the 1200 bandit... ;D] i drive like miss daisy these days tbh... today i took my lad to the station to go to london village, it was around 8.30 and alot of people were driving like cants.... :- major q's onto roundabout everyone blocking the junctions and speeding into every one elses path it was comical.. im glad i leave it until after 9.30 before i venture anywhere near the roads these days... 8)
