Association Against Aggressive Driving.

Hello:

     Welcome to the Association Against Aggressive Drivers.

     It is unbelievable the way some people drive cutting people off, tailgating, passing on the right, speeding, running people off the road, and general harassment, and we developed this website to work towards changing these condition on our nation’s highways. These road violations amount to nothing more than drivers that are simply road terrorists, and this website was designed to voice the will of people who want this to stop. This website will promote better enforcement of existing traffic laws, and push for better laws from our elected officials to protect the public from the road terrorists. We will push for harsher sentences for the road terrorists, and mandatory prison sentences when convicted of these types of violations. These road terrorists are nothing more than common criminals, and should be treated like any other criminal that is serving time. We owe it to our families along with future generations to start to clean up our nation’s highways, and to set standards to protect our children starting today.
      We will also be promoting the use of car cameras to video record these road terrorists, and to use that video in the prosecution of them since the police cannot ignore video of these crimes. We will be promoting the use of any technology that will help fight road bullies, and any other traffic violations that the police may come across dealing with this problem. We will be looking into new ideas to develop new technologies to combat these offences, and we are looking for technology developers to begin to work on new technologies to make our roads safer. 
     We will also be promoting a United States traffic police department to be formed by the United States government, and that these police officers will do nothing but traffic stops to all those that will not obey the law. This means traffic only stops not stops for other crimes that will bog them down like the other police, and if they do come across other crime concealed in the cars that they have pulled over they are to handcuff the occupants to hold them for the local police. 
      We will be setting up donation links to take donations as soon as possible, because this will be very expensive to accomplish, but can we really afford to do nothing while the road terrorists kill our loved ones day after day? How many sons, daughters, mothers, fathers, and grand parents must be sacrificed before we demand change, and make this an issue that must be addressed by our law makers?
     I am able to get media coverage for any issue that I am supporting, and with the help of people that want change we can push this issue in the press. Sign up to make your voice heard by our law makers, and help to make real changes for a better more positive highway system without road terrorists.
     We do not want to preach hate or violence towards aggressive drivers, but we will call the situation as we see it. If someone admits that they have an aggressive driving problem we should find forgiveness for them, and get them the help that they need to stop this aggressive behavior. However, if someone will not admit that they have a problem then the full power of the law should be used to stop them before many people die on our roads, but for those who know that they have a problem we will be looking into treatment to help them including psychologists, psychiatrist, and support groups.
      After some research it has come to our attention that in 1997 as posted below over 27,000 people died from aggressive driving, and in 2005 the reported number of deaths from AIDS were 16,316 which is more than ten to eleven thousand people that died from aggressive driving, so we know that this is an issue that must be addressed even though it is not really being addressed the way it should be up until now. AIDS is an issue that most certainly needs to be supported in many ways, but aggressive driving is killing twice the amount of people than AIDS in the U.S.A. today, and we are here to make sure that this becomes a high priority to the public, government, and media.

There is a difference between agressive driving and road rage.

Aggressive driving pertains to traffic offenses such as speeding, unsafe lane changes, following too closely, failing to signal, and other negligent actions.

Road rage are the actions taken by an angry driver when they are upset by other drivers on the road.

Common traits of aggressive drivers who often suffer from road rage include tailgateing, making rude gestures, passing on the shoulder, pulling into a parking space someone else was waiting for, flashing high beams at the person in front of you, honking the horn, speeding, and driving through yellow lights that are turning red

More than 41,000 died in traffic accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The government agency says that two-thirds of those deaths were the result of road rage. July 18, 1997 Web posted at: 9:57 a.m. EDT (1357 GMT)

 If these articles do not make you cry you should be drummed out of the human race!

I do not think that this is a bad man, but it shows how people have the typical attitude that they should get to do whatever they want to on the roads with no penalties to pay no matter who they put in danger. You can clearly see how one car almost rear ended him, and if someone had died who would stand up for the victims. If you can’t do the time, then don’t do the crime. This guy knew that you have to stop completely at the stop light, and choose not do stop of his own free will, and now he wants a break because he cannot afford the tickets.

Give Me A Break!

Video of May 30th, 2008, hit and run of Angel Torres at 33 Park Street, Hartford.

This looks like a road rage/aggressive driving incident to me, and people are blaming the bystanders for poor response time, but I think many were just stunned by the whole thing. Lets put the blame where it belongs at the feet of the drivers, and we has a nation must start admitting that we have a serious problem.
