Mental Conditions That Affect Driving Ability
Anger.
Psychologists tell us that anger is a "secondary emotion." In
other words, it grows out of some other emotion that is working
on us - such as disappointment, pride or suspicion. Once we
identify the primary emotion, it is easier to control the
secondary emotion.
Stress.
Another mental condition dangerous to our driving safety and
that of those around us is stress. Sure, modern life and
obligations are stressed, but smart drivers remember that a
collision or traffic violation is only going to compound their
stress.
