Traffic law to punish tailgating to go into effect Tuesday

TOKYO- A new law that imposes harsher penalties for road rage incidents will go into effect in Japan on Tuesday. The Diet enacted the law earlier this month in the wake of several high-profile fatal accidents caused by road rage.

I know a guy, calm and sweet as anything, but once in a car he changes into a crazy guy. Can't understand such a dramatic change once he's in the car. Speeding, shouting and swearing at other drivers, getting out of the car to start a fight, tailgating, the list goes on. That's what I call road rage and yes, his licence should be taken away from him before he does any damage.
