According to the New York Daily News, on Tuesday, a Brooklyn driver was shot and killed during a heated road-rage argument. According to police sources, he had literally asked for it, getting fatally shot after daring his adversary to open fire. However, Brooklyn accident attorneys know that murder is murder regardless of the circumstances.

After being hit, the fatally injured driver managed to step on the gas and drive away from the shooting scene. His SUV came to a stop after slamming into a parked car.

In a new survey that ranks 25 major U.S. cities by having the most aggressive drivers, New York, as auto accident attorneys know, ranks number one.

David Perecman of New York, an auto accident attorney, wants to remind people that a report by the AAA Foundation found that there are about 1200 incidents of road rage every year in the US and this translates into an average of 300 injuries and fatalities.
