Stress from driving on the Beltway, Interstate 270, Interstate 66 and Interstate 95 can lead to road rage, but according to a survey of more than 3,000 people, traveling near congested shopping centers causes people to react with hidden hostility.
roads like Rockville Pike, which came in No. 7 on a national list of most passive-aggressive roads, triggers people to tailgate, break-check, lean on their horns and block other drivers from merging.
These commercial corridors packed with restaurant entrances, school traffic, malls and strip centers often have many red lights, stop signs, short merge lanes and a lot of bumper-to-bumper traffic.
The survey found many of the roads on the list aren鈥檛 chaotic or aggressive at all. Instead, they鈥檙e often in wealthier suburban areas where drivers show passive鈥慳ggressive behavior in small, subtle ways rather than of blowing up.

1. Ventura Boulevard, Los Angeles
2. U.S. 1 (Federal Highway), Fort Lauderdale, Florida
3. Central Avenue (Yonkers to White Plains Corridor), Westchester County, New York
