Are you a considerate driver?  email this discussion to a friend?

Do you think you are a considerate driver, why or why not? Do you ever get road rage?
Also, do you use your turn signals appropriately (to indicate where you are turning with ample time to alert the other drivers around you, but NOT 2 miles ahead of where you're planning to turn!)? Do you leave space at intersections, driveways, etc when driving as most state laws indicate you should, such as at the entrance to parking lots, gas stations, other roads, etc?

I like to think I am very considerate. It generally gets me steam rolled over by the aggressive drivers who don't give a toss about any one else on the roads except themselves, and yes, that makes me mad, but I let it go rather than "rage" about it. Road Rage kills and maims innocent people every day.

I agree. I used to have major road rage. The fact is, is that it's stupid, pointless, and dangerous. You never know how others may act, especially during times of anger and aggression. Best to just let it go and get to your destination rather than fretting over something so trivial.

I have not been able to drive for almost 3 years now Bethany (medical reasons) and I really hate not having my own transport! I always tried to be considerate when I was driving and thought of the comfort and safety of everyone and don't see the point of making things harder for anyone! xxx

I am, but the rest of the world is out to lunch! I call cars that don't know how to drive dolts with idiot interior.

I am 54 years old and I do not know how to drive. I never learned, I was always too afraid, because I get very nervous and I figured with being nervous and having bad eye site I would be a wreck at the wheel.

I will say only one thing that you are not a good no best driver until you have'nt been in an accident or you neerly died there. it depends country to country, in our country there is such rules and if there is than nobody follows it regularly. i think you should be active and follow laws of traffic to be a good driver. I am not a good driver as for as my country laws are concerned.

I like to think that I'm a considerate driver. At least I try to be. I let people go first if I have the chance. I'm usually not in any hurry so I don't mind waiting. I don't think road rage solves anything. I don't understand why people do that. It doesn't get them anywhere but maybe hurt or in jail. And, I always use my turning signals.

I am considerate when I drive. Sometimes I do get mad at crazy drivers but I control myself and calm down and concentrate on my driving.

I try my best to be a considerate driver. However, if someone cuts me off I tend to honk at them. Which has gotten me in trouble more than once before. I have tried to let it slide since then, but it can be difficult when there are some idiot drivers out there that act like they own the road. thumbdown
