If so, a friendly wave or a mouthed &#8216;sorry&#8217; can go a long way to de-escalate a situation. Remember that the primary goal is your survival, not to prove you&#8217;re right.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Being the victim of road rage can be a life-threatening event.
