Is Aggressive Driving a Problem That Can be Avoided in Pennsylvania?

This summer Route 15 in Cumberland and York Counties, Pennsylvania was the subject of a study on aggressive driving. Now that the summer is over and the study is complete, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) has some tips for divers who are seeking to avoid aggressive driving accidents, injuries, and deaths.

According to PennDOT, it is important to take a deep breath when you feel tense behind the wheel. It is also important to make sure that you are:

• Obeying the speed limit.
• Not following another car too closely.
• Abiding by all of the traffic rules.
• Only passing when it is legal and safe to do so.

Of course, you can only control your own behavior. If another driver injured you in an aggressive driving accident then it is important to contact an experienced Pennsylvania lawyer for injury victims to discuss your rights and possible recovery.
