Things on the Road That Make My Blood Boil

Cars and Transport
Driving is one of the common daily activities that people engage in. Driving back and forth from work, taking kids to school, shopping for groceries, going to the park, and travelling on the holidays are only some of the things people do on a regular basis in vehicles.
My van has all the best accessories - van roofracks, accessories, lighting and seating - these all make my job as comfortable as it can be, but there are many annoyances associated with driving.
One of the most common stressors that driver’s face is traffic jams. Traffic jams often result in some individuals feeling road rage so the enraged driver causes stress for himself on others on the road. Honking, Screaming, Cursing, and heavy footed application of gas and brake are common in instances of road rage. Tailgating is one of the common and dangerous things that happen when someone is affected by road rage. Following a car at an unsafe distance can lead to accidents. Maintaining a safe distance between vehicles is difficult on the interstate when there are angry drivers who assume every opening is made for them and they eliminate a safe driver’s safety cushion from the vehicle in front of them. Speeding is often made more of an issue by tailgating drivers who purposefully tale a vehicle with the intention of pushing them to greater speeds. This is a very dangerous game which is played on a regular basis. Another dangerous activity on the roads is driving without headlights, turn signals.
