Road bullying is one of the forms of bullying that has the highest risk of taking lives. Countless of innocent people have lost their lives due to the irresponsible actions of these road bullies. However, sad as the truth is, these road bullies are very hard to capture, because they speed away after commiting a crime. Therefore, how are we to drive with a sense of safety while knowing that they roam among our midst? The most popular mindset of citizens are that campaigns are the way to go, but in actual fact, how many road bullies will actually turn over a new leaf with a mere campaign? In my opinion, road bullies should not be granted the luxury of campaigns, but instead be doled out punishments, whether in monetary form or jailing.
Road bullying not only endangers their lives but also innocent lives. Driving recklessly may mean they have a death wish, but it is unfair to drag someone down with them just because of their selfish thoughts.
One of the causes of road bullying is the driver's impatientness during a traffic. In the spur of the moment, the driver tends to speed at the first chance he sees, whether it is legal or not, therefore risking the lives of other drivers.
Another cause is when a driver who is hot tempered rises to the bait of another road bully. The childish race between those two drivers will cause other cars to halt suddenly in an attempt to avoid colliding with the speeding cars. This in turn has a domino effect and a whole chain of cars would crash due to the sudden braking.
