Aggressive Driving in Colorado Springs
Were You Injured by an Aggressive Driver?
Over half of the motorists who responded to a survey by the National Highway Traffic Administration in 1997 admitted to engaging in aggressive driving behaviors. The general consensus is that such behaviors have only increased in prevalence in the last decade and a half. Aggressive driving is a traffic violation and can be a precursor to road rage, which is a criminal offense. Additionally, road rage and other forms of aggressive driving are a common cause of car accidents and related injuries.
Aggressive drivers may do the following:
- Cut other drivers off
- Drive at speeds over the posted speed limits
- Honk their horns
- Make aggressive gestures at other motorists
- Use the shoulder to pass
- Weave in and out of traffic
If you are on the road and witness aggressive driving, then you are encouraged throughout the state to dial *277 (CSP) and report the vehicle. This program, implemented by the Colorado State Patrol in 1998, plays a crucial role in curbing such actions before they escalate and lead to an accident. It is also important to your safety that you not respond to aggressive drivers in kind. Give the aggressive driver plenty of space and avoid eye contact so as to avoid making matters worse.
Taking Action Against Aggressive Drivers
When a driver engages in aggressive behavior, the road becomes a less safe place for everyone on it.
