Drivers who consider their car an extension of their identity are more likely to behave aggressively behind the wheel and break the laws of the road, a new study finds. The study, which examines how personality, attitude and values contribute to aggressive driving behaviors, was published in the Journal of Psychology & Marketing and conducted by Ayalla Ruvio, a professor in Temple's Fox School of Business. Ruvio found that drivers with compulsive tendencies are more likely to drive aggressively with disregard for possible consequences.
