Aggressive driving includes speeding, tailgating, erratic lane changes, failing to yield, and other reckless behaviors. Indiana law prohibits aggressive driving because it endangers everyone on the road.

Tips for responding safely:

  • Do not engage: Avoid eye contact, gestures, or any behavior that could escalate the situation.

  • Stay calm: Take a deep breath and maintain your composure.

  • Allow space: Let the aggressive driver pass you or move away from your vehicle.

  • Do not speed up or block their path: Your goal is to safely separate from the aggressive driver.

  • If you feel threatened, drive to a safe, public place and contact law enforcement.

Defensive driving means protecting yourself, even when others behave irresponsibly.
