Good advice (although the avoid-eye-contact suggestion seems like it might exacerbate some cases).
I would, however, like to see the research that led to the statistics at the end:
Aggressive driving plays a role in 66% of traffic fatalities
50% of people who encounter aggressive driving behavior respond in kind
A firearm is involved in 37% of aggressive driving incidents
Out of 10,000 road-rage incidents committed over a seven-year span, there were 218 deaths and 12,610 injuries recorded according to the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety
There seemed to have been more discussion on general gun control/ownership than on the incident which inspired this thread, so I've split those posts to a new thread HERE. If you see a post that should have been moved but wasn't, please let the mod team know.
