Abstract
Purpose: To put the clear and broader picture of driving impatience across the various considered demographics. Methodology: In the present study, cross sectional research was adopted for the study; the research area was Mehran University of engineering and technology, Jamshoro. 140 valid responses were collected from the location by using the questionnaire of Dr. Larson. The questionnaire was based on five sections i.e. demographics (gender, age and driving experience), driving anger, driving impatience, competing while driving and punishing while driving. In scope of the present paper, driving impatience was included and rest of the factors is covered in the paper. The data was analyzed in the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) version 22. Frequency distribution and mean+SD were used for the analysis across all the demographic characteristics. Findings: The male drivers from the age group of (18-22) years were found to be more impatient and at the same time, female drivers from the same age group were also found to be the same. Moreover, with increasing experience, female drivers were observed to be more impatient because the females from the driving experience group i.e. (11-15) were found to be the most impatient among all the respondents. Importance: Research evidence from the literature indicates that driving anger is closely associated with driving impatience thus, it was necessary to analyze the driving impatience so that the useful conclusion could be drawn for the greater good of the society. Implications: Data for the present research paper was collected at the university level and it was collected at the canteens from students and at offices from the teachers but if the data is collected instantly after the drivers drive off through the traffic; it would be helpful in recording the more accurate response than it was collected for the present research. The more accurate data will yield the more accurate results. Limitations: More demographic characteristics were not included in the present research and the sample size was also small. Both points are considered to be the major limitations of the present research.
