This book delves into the psychological, social, and economic factors influencing aggressive driving behavior among commercial bus drivers in North Central Nigeria. It examines how personality traits, stress, and external pressures contribute to aggressive driving, road rage, and risky behaviors on the road. The book explores how personality traits-such as openness, aggression, and emotional instability-affect driving behavior. It discusses how certain traits predispose drivers to engage in high-risk behaviors, including speeding, overtaking dangerously, and confronting other road users. Long hours, financial pressures, poor road conditions, and interactions with law enforcement create a high stress environment for commercial drivers. The book investigates how these stressors lead to frustration, fatigue, and aggressive reactions behind the wheel. Many commercial bus drivers in North Central Nigeria operate in a challenging economic landscape, where daily earnings depend on the number of trips completed. The book highlights how competition, fuel prices, and vehicle maintenance costs push drivers to adopt aggressive driving strategies to maximize profits.
