aggressive driving

Aggressive driving behavior: the overt, instrumental act of using the vehicle to intimidate, impede, or punish other road users — tailgating, hostile lane changes, cutting off, horn/light aggression, deliberate blocking, retaliatory maneuvers. The observable behavior itself, distinct from anger_road_rage, which is the emotional state that drives it, from risk_taking, which is risk acceptance without hostile intent toward others, and from sensation_seeking, which is the arousal-seeking trait.
