If you are traveling for the holidays, or any reason, this might be an important episode. Stay safe out there. Show Highlights: - Dr. Brown looks at the behaviors involved in road rage from a psychological perspective. - Minor driving aggression (what we all do) can progress into full rage. Road rage as on the most extreme side of the spectrum. - Anxious driving behavior, driver related stress, and other types of problematic driving behaviors. - The variables involved: dehydration and nutrition; what happens before one gets in a car; warm temperatures; neurology and impulse control (executive function); maturity level; population (more cars on the road); alexithymia; emotional intelligence; sleep deprivation. - Road Rage: What it is, and what it is not. The coining of the term sometime in the 1980s. -What is the intent, if there was one? Driven by rage. -What are the behaviors observed? Intimidation? Gestures of aggression, threats? - Triggering events: Slow driving; reckless driving behavior of others; discourtesy and disrespect by other drivers; time urgency; family troubles; driver distractions. - The personal nature of the automobile. How the car gives us so much autonomy, attention, respect and other benefits. The car as a second home or office - If you are in an automobile accident… How to act. What to do.
