Road rage and aggressive driving may be reduced by:
- Allowing extra travel time.
- Obeying posted speed limits.
- Using proper turn signals.
- All of the above. ✓
Answer: D. All of the above.
All of the above: allowing extra travel time, obeying posted speed limits, and using proper turn signals are habits that help reduce road rage and aggressive driving.
Why this is the answer
The Texas handbook's road-rage tips tell drivers to plan ahead and allow extra time, and to signal lane changes properly. It also says aggressive driving happens when a driver gets angry and stops following the rules of the road, while another chapter says you must always obey the speed limit. Together, those listed habits support calmer driving and remove common triggers for aggression.
Why the other answers are wrong
- A. Allowing extra travel time. — Allowing extra travel time is only one of the handbook's calm-driving tips; by itself it does not cover obeying the speed limit or signaling properly.
- B. Obeying posted speed limits. — Obeying posted speed limits is a required safe practice, but choosing it alone leaves out the planning and signaling steps the handbook also lists.
- C. Using proper turn signals. — Using proper turn signals is one listed habit, but by itself it does not include allowing extra time or obeying the speed limit.
Remember it
Give yourself time, follow the posted limit, and signal your moves; calm driving leaves less room for rage.
