Medium Term Treatments: Acknowledge that mood-altering chemicals were used as a primary coping mechanism to escape from stress or pain, and the resulting negative consequences. Seek treatment for chemical dependence. Start to identify and list examples of the loss of control of anger.

Dirt flies up from the ground like kids jumping on a trampoline. The red, white, and blue #19 Tobias Slingshot flies past the red #026. In anger of losing his position. #026 closes the distance between the two cars. Mere inches separate the two vehicles. They touch. Even though the touch is as light as a feather, it sends #19 hurtling towards the wall. The sound of a gunshot is heard as the car ricochets of the wall at a 90 degree angle. The driver looks at the night sky. The sky is beautiful with the stars twinkling like diamonds. But, the beautiful sight ends as the car crashes into the ground. The drivers hands shoot forward. "Snap!" As the red flag comes out, sirens are heard in the distance...

Nerenberg believes that road rage is a “mental disorder and social disease,” which involves evolution. He states that throughout history mankind has had a competitive spirit and tries to dominate others. Nerenberg defines road rage as “ basically a maladaptive reaction to an identifiable psycho-social stressor that interferes with social functioning,” or, more simply put, “one driver expressing anger at another driver ... at least twice a year.” John Larson, a psychiatrist at Yale University, believes road rage is a “vigilante behavior” and that different levels of road rage exist. Furthermore, Larson believes that road rage is caused by association with sports, saying that a road rager is an individual who is “strongly imbued with the sports model, either from high school, college or professional sports; and from identification with sports heroes who become introjected models for behavior.” Make and model of a car is also a determining factor in road rage, according to Larson.
