What should you do if you encounter an aggressive driver?

When encountering an aggressive driver, remaining calm, avoiding eye contact, and allowing them to pass is the best course of action. This approach helps to de-escalate the situation and minimizes the risk of confrontation or hostile interactions. Aggressive drivers may be experiencing a range of emotions that can cloud their judgment, and engaging with them could provoke further aggression.

By staying calm and not engaging, you prevent adding fuel to the fire and ensure your own safety as well as the safety of others on the road. Allowing the aggressive driver to pass reduces potential conflict and gives you the opportunity to focus on your own driving, thereby maintaining a safer driving environment.
