The petition
To our respected lawmakers:
This petition is to promote a United States Traffic Police Department to be formed by the United States government, and that these police officers will do nothing but traffic stops to all those that will not obey the law. This means traffic only stops not stops for other crimes that will bog them down like the other police, and if they do come across other crime concealed in the cars that they have pulled over they are to handcuff the occupants to hold them for the local police. This should also give local police more time to enforce laws that are not traffic related, and will help communities that small budgets for traffic enforcement.
Thank You,

Definitions:
There is a difference between aggressive driving and road rage.
Aggressive driving pertains to traffic offenses such as speeding, unsafe lane changes, following too closely, failing to signal, and other negligent actions.
Road rage are the actions taken by an angry driver when they are upset by other drivers on the road.
Common traits of aggressive drivers who often suffer from road rage include tailgating, making rude gestures, passing on the shoulder, pulling into a parking space someone else was waiting for, flashing high beams at the person in front of you, honking the horn, speeding, and driving through yellow lights that are turning red http://www.caraccidentattorney...
More than 41,000 died in traffic accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). The government agency says that two-thirds of those deaths were the result of road rage. July 18, 1997 Web posted at: 9:57 a.m. EDT (1357 GMT) http://www.cnn.com/US/9707/18/...
