Road rage is aggressive behaviour by drivers on the road.  It has become so common that some psychologists say it is a mental disorder. Many things can cause road rage. Some driving experts think that road rage occurs because people watch chase scenes on TV. Others watch Formula One races and want to copy their favourite driver. Road rage results in accidents, which can lead to serious injuries or the death of other road participants.

In today’s world, driving is a very stressful and risky activity. A driver must be alert at all times and not get distracted by other things, like phone calls or fellow drivers. When a motorist becomes angry they often do wrong things, which lead to aggressive behaviour. Drivers tend to change lanes frequently or increase their speed to overtake another car because they are not patient enough. Others flash their lights all the time to show their impatience. Road rage also includes gestures or shouting towards other drivers, bad language or threatening others.

Speaking exercise

I think I am impatient to my parents, maybe they ask me to teach them how to use this app, I teach them and they always can’t, so I always impatient. Someone say people always to the people they  are close to you/ love you. If to a child, I’m very patient, I can teach them something one more time, and play with them. Because children always do the same thing again and again, and I always play with them again and again, and never impatient.

Revised

I think I am impatient with my parents, sometimes they ask me to teach them how to use certain app, when they can’t understand, so I become impatient. there is a saying that “ people are always impatient to their loved ones”. If to a child, I’m very patient with children, I can teach them something many times, and play with them. Because children always do the same things again and again, and I always play with them again and again, and I am never impatient with them.Â
