Driving in heavy city traffic and busy country roads is more like a race for lost time. Here we jump to the “yellow”, here we do not give way to another car, although we could well do this. And suddenly, in our opinion, there is also a slow car in front of us. Dragging after the snail, we literally begin to experience physical discomfort and sometimes commit completely inadequate actions.
Unfortunately, for the most part, the driver’s brothers react very nervously to the “renegades” who, instead of the “legal” speed limit of 20 km / h, drive even slower than the signs allow. Active gestures begin immediately, bouncing on the seat, attempts to overtake dangerously with mandatory cutting, “beeping”, flashing headlights, and so on. And very often an impatient “mate”, in a hurry with urgent matters, himself begins to delay his “offender”.
But before you start acting emotionally, think about why the car in front of you is driving so relaxed? What if his driver sees a problem and tries to figure out how to deal with it. It is possible that he is familiar with the logic of the traffic lights in this place and understands that there is no point in accelerating, since it will flash “red”. Or maybe the person was in an unfamiliar area, and his dialogue with the navigator does not lead to an understanding of where to go. Or just a novice motorist and your aggressive actions can lead to an accident. Don’t put someone who is already in trouble in a more difficult position.
It may also be that your “opponent” is on the phone so seriously that he is completely distracted from the road. This means that it can react completely illogically to actions on your part at any time. Therefore, by willpower, try to turn on the intellect and try to understand whether immediately catching up will bring you any benefit. And if it doesn’t happen, how much time do you spend on this? And is it worth the risk of creating a conflict situation with unknown consequences?
In addition, attackers can sometimes use this technique to force you to break the traffic rules and replace yourself for an accident planned by them. For example, you emotionally overtake, switch lanes to the oncoming lane, and get hit on the side at the end of the maneuver. By the way, the AvtoVzglyad portal told how to identify the car from car substitutes here.
True, there is a possibility that the slow motion of the car in front of you is caused by your previously committed incorrect action. In this case, do not escalate the conflict. Move calmly in the lane and try not to squeeze your opponent out of the way, blink and honk. You can even apologize by calling in the emergency gang. As a rule, this is enough for a colleague in the stream to return to normal behavior.
And overtaking only a slow car should be done, completely excluding the emotional component of the maneuver. To do this, it is worth considering the “adversary” not as an evil living being plotting intrigues, but as an inanimate natural phenomenon, which is useless to be offended and impossible to make us feel discontent. And even more so to force him to change his behavior. This is the professionalism that significantly increases the level of our overall safety on the road.
