Aggressive driving might be responsible for up to two-thirds of all U.S. traffic accidents that involve injuries.This is the first time I ever read this. I believe it to be true. I've always thought that the obsession with drunk driving overlooks the larger cause of fatalities: aggressive driving.
Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying legalize drunk driving. For the record, I don't even drink.
What I am saying is that sometimes I get the idea that drunk driving and parking tickets are the sum total of traffic enforcement in some jurisdictions.
Meanwhile, aggressive drivers are out there killing people.
Often the aggressive driver whips through so fast, they aren't even a part of the accident they caused.
