is furious while driving? The invisible key truth is exposed

The weather is hot, and drivers are easy to be impatient. Even though the driving recorder is becoming more and more popular, there are still many videos uploading online that force cars, fight for roads, and even fight on the road. "How come out of control. In the end, many people involved are gentlemen, but when the steering wheel is gripped or the accelerator is pressed, they become irritable, as if they have changed themselves.


If you are on the road, it is easy to get crazy, be careful, you may suffer from "road rage".


Out-of-control performance of road rage, how many do you have?

Modern people spend a lot of time driving and cycling. Road rage has attracted attention and research overseas. The California Motor Vehicle Administration released the "California Driving Manual" in 2015, which stipulates whether drivers have a tendency to "drive angry." 35 judging criteria, including a traffic jam or collision want to do it, will deliberately block others from entering their lane, curse and use passersby, the car in front will be unable to help but honking the horn when idling, and the lights will flash repeatedly. Or want to teach others with weapons, etc.


Taipei City United Hospital once announced the “2014 Taiwan Road Rage Survey” and found that about 50% of passersby in Taiwan were potential road rage people. Surprisingly, about 38% of Taiwan’s women had experienced road rage and 40% of men. , The full-time director of the psychiatric department , physician Liu Zongxian, said that there are three major indicators for judging whether you are a Lunu ethnic group, including affecting your own or other people's emotions, affecting other people's or personal safety, and affecting driving safety on the road. One match is a potential road Nu tribe, two matches are an obvious road Nu tribe, and three matches are a serious road Nu tribe.


is more sensitive to defense when driving. Xu Weixiong, the director of Xinyue Clinic in Taoyuan City,

, once analyzed that for driving safety, drivers will involuntarily stay alert when they are on the road, especially when driving at high speeds, so they will be more focused. Time is more "sensitive and defensive." The surrounding wind and grass will cause intuitive psychological reactions and physical reflex actions. At this time, people who are nervous and anxious are likely to overreact.


The unsatisfactory traffic environment promotes the chance of madness.

The traffic environment in Taiwan is not ideal. For example, traffic jams in the Greater Taipei area are the norm during commuting hours. Grabbing the green light makes people more anxious, and then encountering situations such as fighting for roads, jumping in line, chaotic cutting, turtle speed, etc., plus it is another hot day, of course, encountering the "three treasures" can easily trigger emotional warming, which will make people caught mad.

Gentlemen become cockfighters in a second. Locomotives are also very angry.

Road rage is actually a Chinese buzzword that refers to drivers who lose control of their emotions and vent their anger on other passersby, as if they were covered with mines on the road , Is a high-risk person on the road, but in the psychiatric category, it is a patient with paroxysmal rage .

Kaohsiung Chang Gung Memorial Hospital psychiatrist Cai Mengzhang said that road rage patients have pathological antisocial personality, poor self-cultivation, and become cynical as soon as they use a car. Seeing nothing is pleasing to the eye, and if they don’t go well, they get out of control and scold them. , But most people have no sense of illness. Even if they are wrong, they think that others are wrong. On the contrary, relatives and friends will see them change from gentleman to cockfight in a second.

Some "righteous demon" encounter other people's violation or not being courteous, and even the speed of the car in front of them affects smooth traffic and "causes themselves not to pass the green light" can also cause discomfort. Even if they are honked, they will go crazy and feel maliciously targeted. You have to honk the horn to choke.

Police said that road rage is not unique to motorists. Many motorcyclists have a temper, like a volcanic eruption, with vulgar gestures and vulgar words, some honking their horns, shouting loudly, madly following each other or "knocking off the car." The window opened and choked, and physical conflicts occurred.


z13, a type A personality road rage patient, Jian Jiazhang, director of the Jiazhang Clinic in Kaohsiung City, said that drivers who have a mania or medical type A personality are a large number of road rage patients. Type A people are quick-thinking, strive for perfection, vigorous and strong, and are aggressive in the workplaceFull, fast-paced, always trying to do more than two things at the same time, but relatively, easy to be irritable when things happen, not good at restraint, hot temper, especially in traffic jams, blocking the road, someone suddenly crossing the road, etc., like eating Explosives, let others become their interface of anger.

A heavy machine family surnamed Li complained that they were allowed to drive on the road in accordance with the law, but they were always regarded as enemies by the Lunu tribe, and they were forced to drive and overtake. However, there are also drivers who think that JJJ regards itself as a car but also likes to drill, and the sound is annoying, and as long as the car approaches, flashes the lights or honks the horn, it is regarded as a threat to JJJ’s safety, "and look back at you" , It is annoying. The

psychiatrist believes that the Lunu people do not distinguish between automobiles and motorcycles. It may be that the frontal lobe of the brain is not dysfunctional, which leads to poor emotional control. It is easy to dispute with others when on the road, which increases the probability of traffic accidents and becomes a safety concern.


slow down and stop calmly and avoid conflict. Dr.

suggested that drivers should play soothing music as much as possible, keep the air-conditioning cool, and stabilize their emotions, and it is best not to drive on an empty stomach to avoid low blood sugar and affect their mood, and then chew gum , With deep breathing, to relax the muscles and relieve tension. When encountering a situation, it can be more calm.

"Slow down or stop calmly and avoid conflicts." The police said that road rage is most afraid of causing accidents or angering others to evolve into conflicts. Cars also have body protection or isolation from each other who are in anger. "Iron" is prone to injury or head-on confrontation, so when the Cavaliers feel that they are about to explode, it is best to slow down and stay calm. After all, safety comes first. If

has been provoked, it is not the first time to defend yourself and fight for justice. You must also calmly think about whether it is worth the conflict. Even if you are right, you should avoid accusing the other party excessively and fuel your fire.


Drive safely. Don’t provoke or misunderstand.

Police advise that drivers with a tendency to road rage should always remind themselves to observe the safe driving interval, and do not force the car, fight for the road, flash the lights, or press the horn. Take it, and don’t provoke first, because in practice, as long as one party provokes first, it is easy to cause a counterattack, but as long as someone gives way first, it is not easy to conflict.

In addition, horns and flashing lights are reminders and defensive equipment for vehicles, but they should be used with caution and don’t make people misunderstand them. For example, the road traffic safety rules stipulate that a single sound is the principle, and it should not be pressed three times in a row, and each time should not exceed half a second. Basically, beyond this level, it is probably not considered goodwill. There are also customary "light language" between

vehicles, such as flashing far lights to remind the front or oncoming vehicles that the green light is not going, the road conditions ahead or the vehicle conditions are abnormal, and the far lights forgot to turn off, but the far lights are kept on for the vehicle in front Illumination or constant flashing of lights will of course cause dissatisfaction.
