“I had been interested and horrified by several newspaper reports on what people call 'road rage'”

“For our research we depended mainly on talking to individuals, asking them questions rather than using written questionnaires”

“Our respondents were both men and women, but the women were just slightly in the majority”

“but the main type of incident was being shouted at – 79% had experienced that”
