Question: 1 / 400

If you encounter an aggressive driver, what should you do?

Engage with the driver

Remain calm, avoid eye contact, and do not engage

When encountering an aggressive driver, remaining calm, avoiding eye contact, and refraining from engagement is the best approach. Aggressive drivers are often unpredictable and may escalate their behavior if provoked. By staying calm, you can reduce the likelihood of escalating the situation further. Avoiding eye contact helps to minimize any perceived challenge or confrontation, which can be important in de-escalating aggressive behavior.

In addition, disengaging from the situation ensures that you maintain control over your own emotional state and driving actions. Engaging with the aggressive driver could lead to confrontations that can be dangerous for both parties involved and may impair your ability to respond safely to the road and other drivers.

Other approaches like following closely undermine safety measures and may provoke the aggressive driver further, while ignoring them entirely may not be practical if their actions can directly impact your safety on the road. So, maintaining a calm demeanor and steering clear of engagement is the most prudent strategy.
