The Environmental Transport Assocation (ETA) this week revealed the UK’s hotspots for the angriest drivers, showing that drivers in the Midlands and Wales were found to be the most stressed drivers in the country, although more drivers in London have had their cars deliberately rammed into than anywhere else in the country. Drivers in Scotland were the least stressed drivers, and those in Northern England were least likely to be involved in a road range accident.
However, the ETA discovered that although driver stress differed around the country, motorists from every region were found to be in need of “green driving techniques” to help them stay calm. Aggressive driving not only increases danger on the roads but also lowers fuel efficiency.
In order to become a safer driver and improve fuel consumption you should avoid harsh acceleration and braking to save fuel, reduce wear and tear and feel more relaxed, and look as far up the road as possible
