Abstract:

Road traffic safety is a major problem and also an important factor which often causes traffic accidents on the road. Defined by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration（NHTSA） aggressive driving is a driving behavior which is harmful to the security of people and properties. In the meanwhile Type A Behavior Pattern (TABP) has a strong form of aggressiveness, which is not a single present mode of behavior or psychological questionnaire, but a set of behaviors or compound factors such as mood and emotion, based on personality. It can be divided into five different types: A、A-、M、B- and B. Based on reviewing domestic and overseas research，114 drivers including 75 males and 39 females participated in the study and answered the questionnaire of TABP and aggressive driving behavior. Based on that, this paper has analyzed the correlation between TABP and aggressive driving. Finally the authors found that there is a remarkable relationship between TABP in different dimensions and aggressive driving. This result has significant referential value for research on road traffic accidents.
