You can't help but get upset while you’re stuck in bumper-to-bumper rush hour traffic in the heart of San Diego for what seems like forever! Here are a few
easy tips to help your road rage:
- Find alternate routes. Traffic jams and construction cause your commute to be more stressful than it has to be. Map out a few back-up plans.
- Eliminate distractions. Don’t text, talk on the phone, eat, or let other activities take your attention from the road. If you’re focused on your driving, you’ll avoid being caught off-guard by other drivers.
- Maintain a calm environment. You can’t control the speed limit, traffic lights, or other drivers—but you can keep your cool by jamming out to relaxing or upbeat music.
- Plan ahead and leave early. One of the primary causes of road rage is running late for something. Make sure to allow yourself plenty of time to arrive at your destination.
