July 2nd, 2008 QUESTION: New research says that you can tell just by looking at someone's car if they are prone to road rage...what will you see?

ANSWER: "A BUMPER STICKER"

That's what a recent study by William Szlemko and colleagues at Colorado State University concluded.

Szlemko argues that people who put bumper stickers, decals or personalized plates on their vehicles are most likely to act aggressively toward other drivers.

The social psychologist calls bumper stickers territorial markers, which signal that drivers view their space on the road as their personal area, similar to a home, and not as a public area to be shared. As a result, they defend their "territory" more aggressively.

Or it could be that they're just jerks!
