When I first arrived into New York from North Carolina, or rather- even when I drove over the New Jersey border from Delaware, I knew that I was going to have to put on my "other" driving cap because I knew that the drivers were going to be much more aggressive than what I had grown accustomed to in North Carolina.

Angry drivers are everywhere, and whether they want to admit to it or not, all that they do is make driving situations significantly worse for the rest of us drivers. I say that they make things worse because when someone is driving while angry, their driving is unpredictable. Often, they do not signal when they are changing lanes and the follow other drivers at a dangerously close distance. All of this driving behavior makes other drivers nervous and due to their nervousness, other drivers may attempt to get out of the way of drivers who are upset.
