Practice question

How should a driving instructor address aggressive driving behavior (e.g. tailgating, flashing lights, horn honking in annoyance) in a learner driver?

  1. Encourage the student to be more aggressive to earn respect on the road
  2. Ignore it because aggression is a natural driving style
  3. Interrupt the behavior immediately, analyze the emotional trigger (e.g. impatience, ego), explain the legal and safety consequences, and teach tactical de-escalation and emotional self-regulation strategies
  4. Tell the student to honk twice as loud

Answer: C — Interrupt the behavior immediately, analyze the emotional trigger (e.g. impatience, ego), explain the legal and safety consequences, and teach tactical de-escalation and emotional self-regulation strategies
