  • Driving etiquette refers to the general courtesy rules communities expect drivers to follow. The term dates back to the early 1900s and the use of horse-drawn carriages.Driving etiquette typically involves being courteous and staying alert, which varies by vehicle, situation and location (e.g., etiquette for driving an F1 racecar has different rules than for driving an RV). Failure to adhere to this behavior can cause increased risk of road collisions, trauma and road rage. Driving etiquette can extend beyond in-vehicle actions: "When a courteous driver scrapes the fender or inflicts minor damage to a parked car without its owner present, he leaves a note giving his name, his telephone number, and the name of the insurance company. If the owner is present, the courteous driver exchanges insurance information politely and contacts the proper authorities right away without incident". Breaches in driving etiquette can often be addressed amiably with a simple and immediate expression of apology. Its guiding principle is "one good turn deserves another", and is considered a vital part of responsible driving.Speeding and aggressive driving, examples of poor driving etiquette, have been cited as negative factors related to rural highways. Drivers need driving-etiquette education to lower the risk of their causing accidents. (en)
