  • Cutting off drivers and brake-checking
  • Repeatedly changing lanes and weaving back and forth
  • Tailgating drivers and engaging in other reckless acts
  • Running red lights and stop signs

Many drivers engage in these actions because they’re impatient and in a hurry to get to their destination. At other times, aggressive driving is closely associated with road rage.

Your Options for Compensation After an Accident

The costs for medical treatment following an aggressive driving accident can quickly skyrocket. Fortunately, a car accident lawyer can help you understand all of your options for securing maximum compensation. You may get the damages you deserve with:
