‘Road Rage’ affects people

According to Kyoko Altman (July 18, 1997) in this article, “‘Road Rage’ runs rampant in high-stress U.S. society” these days more over 41,000 people died because of a traffic accident. Over half of these people have died because of road rage. Brenda Fraser said the drivers should have more deference for other drivers. The road rage is a kind of a mental disease and they should recognize that the problems are caused by themselves. Many other states have resolute management and give punishment to road ragers. To make road rage disappear we need to give consideration, make traffic regulations stronger, and figure out how we can reduce the number of cars.

First, the drivers should have more deference for other drivers. There are accidents when they do not have consideration. For example, when you drive somewhere, you should think about other drivers, because if you do not have consideration, you will get in a accident. For that reason, they should think about other driver because it will protect them.

Next, we need to make traffic regulations stronger, because some people do not keep to the law. For example, a reckless driver makes an accident. If there is weak punishment, it will happen frequently. So the law should have more strength. It will reduce the number of reckless drivers.

Finally, reducing the number of cars will get rid of road rage. It happens because many families have cars. For example, in some families two, three or more have cars. It makes traffic jams. If you have an expensive tax, maybe this will cause us to have a small number. In this way, we can reduce the number of cars.

In conclusion, road rage causes accidents and makes stress. We want road rage to disappear, so we need to have consideration, make traffic regulations stronger, and reduce the number of cars. If we always think about these ways, it will reduce road rage. So many drivers have to know each other, because if you think about other drivers, you do not make road rage or accidents.
