Preventing Road Rage, UK

Figures from the British Institute for Anger Management reveal that the UK already has the worst road rage figures of any European nation, with 80% of drivers saying they"ve been involved in an incident and 1 in 4 admitting to committing an act of road rage themselves. Men are three times more likely to commit an act of aggression than women and over 60% of drivers say they have been intimidated by aggressive tailgating. Whilst road rage levels peak during the rush hour, if this summer proves to be a bumper year for British tourism, there is likely to be an increase of incidents regardless of the time of day, particularly if travelling with excitable children when stress levels inside the car can boil over for the driver. Road rage is generally brought on by stress and anxiety. If you are prone to suffering with stress when behind the wheel, diffusing relaxing essential oils in the car can help combat stress and maintain calm.
