Road Rage PowerPoint Training

Road Rage, Power & Control: Evidence-Based Training Program

Professional Road Rage Prevention & Intervention Training

This comprehensive 72-slide training program delivers a psychologically grounded approach to understanding and preventing road rage. Designed for courts, probation departments, employers, driving schools, and therapeutic settings, this presentation goes beyond surface-level anger management to address the core psychological mechanisms driving aggressive behavior behind the wheel.

What Makes This Training Different

Unlike traditional anger management courses, this program uses a power and control framework to help participants understand that road rage isn't just about anger—it's about ego, identity threats, and the illusion of control. This deeper psychological approach creates lasting behavioral change by addressing root causes rather than symptoms.
