Constable Mark Herman's Tips for Avoiding Road Rage Conflict
CONSTABLE MARK HERMAN'S SAFETY TIPS TO AVOID ROAD RAGE CONFLICT
Constable Mark Herman and his team want to make sure you do not become a victim of Road Rage. Road Rage incidents have already increased this month, and we would like to give the following recommendations if you are exposed to a road rage incident:
• Move over if someone is tailgating you
• Use an “I’m sorry” gesture (e.g. wave) to attempt to defuse the situation
• Plan ahead; allow time for delays during your journey
• Consider whether you’ve done something to annoy the other driver and adjust your driving accordingly
• Listen to music you enjoy
• Use your horn sparingly
• Avoid eye contact with angry drivers and give them plenty of room
