Aggressive driving is a way of driving any type of vehicle or affecting any type of maneuver on a vehicle in which the driver deliberately behaves in such a manner as to increase the risk of a road accident. An aggressive driver may in some instances drive so recklessly and imprudently as to injure or kill a person or an animal or cause material harm to the property of another person/s. He/she is also subject to cause bodily harm to himself/herself. Aggressive driving has been associated to serious crimes, such as involuntary homicide by imprudence. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) defines aggressive driving as a progression of unlawful driving actions such as: * Speeding – exceeding the posted limit or driving too fast for conditions * Improper signalling and lane changing – failing to signal intent, using an emergency lane to pass, or passing on the shoulder, cutting into another car's path * Tailgating – driving near the back of another's car at too close of a range * Driving in improper lane - travelling too slow in passing lane (typically the left lane of 'every' road) and ignoring 'keep right except to pass' rule causing other drivers to perform more frequent lane changes ==References and links== * National Highway Traffic Safety Administration * (Smooth Operator – a public safety initiative ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Aggressive driving」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
