Websites aim at taking down aggressive drivers
USA Today reports on two websites that actively track aggressive drivers. Drivers can
report an aggressive driver in Arizona and Washington state via the Internet and give details on the vehicle, where it
was, when and even the license plate number. It's possible that the offending driver may even get a visit from the
highway patrol or a letter in the mail but mostly the new systems will highlight "hotspots" of aggressive driving so
these road ragers can be caught in the act.
