it's strange but true. Apparently there are 'small car syndrome'. People who experience it mostly uses a small car that makes it more likely to commit traffic violations than other types of cars.

About three-quarters of all small car owners surveyed confessed 'sometimes driving in danger' than other categories of automobile owners. In addition, 46 percent of small car drivers claim to show rudeness to other motorists than 36 percent of drivers 'big car' which does the same thing.

In a study involving 3740 people also revealed that it was more unique syndrome experienced by many young women with ages between 18-24 years. The driver of this type is said to be aggressive and reckless drivers.

"The driver of a small car is significantly more likely to give a rough and verbal abuse against the other driver, and they are also significantly more likely to be more rugged than a larger car driver," the official said AAMI David Skapinker.

"Regardless of what size or type of car you drive, road rules apply to everyone. We all have a responsibility to stay safe on the road," he said.
