Sadly, RED can\u2019t force other drivers to be responsible on the roads, but \u2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We do <\/em>want to reduce stressful driving situations by encouraging awareness and patience on the roads!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why RED will be introducing a fleet of drones to help tackle the harassment of learner drivers on the road. They will follow learners during their lessons to monitor for other drivers expressing \u2018road rage\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ian McIntosh, CEO of Red Driving School says \u201cUnfortunately, road rage seems to be on the increase and broadly it seems people are noticing that drivers are getting ruder on the roads.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

In general, the distinctive branding on RED Driving School cars lets other motorists know that the driver is learning and to be patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, in some rare cases this seems to incite stress in drivers \u2013 who refuse to give learners the time and space they require. To help ensure this doesn\u2019t result in too stressful a situation for leaners, all our Driving Instructors are trained to help diffuse any difficult situation and their focus is always on safeguarding people in the vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being\u00a0stressed\u00a0or being\u00a0in a rush<\/a>\u00a0are top causes of road rage, which\u00a08 out of 10 drivers admit to<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ian\u2019s top tip for combatting road rage when you feel it creeping up is to \u201ckeep a bag of chocolate buttons in the car which you can tuck into when you feel yourself getting impatient! It\u2019s not a perfect formula but anything that helps keep our roads safe \u2013 and moving is a good thing.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully, our new anti road-rage drones will help combat this by reporting aggression from other drivers, and help learners feel more comfortable on the roads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re always thinking about how we can improve the experience for learners and drivers and we\u2019re confident that better monitoring \u2013 via drones or otherwise \u2013 could improve driving conditions. Everyone on the road is trying to get somewhere \u2013 play nice!<\/strong><\/em>\u201d <\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
