You’re stuck in bumper-to-bumper rush hour traffic. Horns are blaring, the clock is ticking, your
jaw is clenched, and your knuckles are white from gripping the steering
wheel. We’re all guilty of letting road
rage get the best of us. Here are a few
easy tips for avoiding it:
-Find alternate routes. Traffic jams and construction cause your commute to be more stressful
than it has to be. Map out a few back-up
plans.
-Eliminate distractions.
Don’t text, talk on the phone, eat, or let other activities take your
attention from the road. If you’re
focused on your driving, you’ll avoid being caught off-guard by other drivers.
-Maintain a calm environment. You can’t control the speed limit, traffic
lights, or other drivers—but you can keep your cool by jamming out to relaxing
or upbeat music.
-Plan ahead and leave early.
One of the primary causes of road rage is running late for something. Make sure to allow yourself plenty of time to
arrive at your destination.
In our opinion, the best way to avoid road rage is by
driving a car you love. Check out our extensive inventory of new vehicles and schedule a test drive today!
