Abstract
This paper has explored aberrant behaviours of drivers in Pakistan with the help of extended violation scale of the modified Manchester Driver Behaviour Questionnaire. Principal component analysis with promax rotation reveals that the drivers in the country have four discrete behavioural dimensions including aggressive driving, unlawful driving, risky driving, and egoistic driving. Further, univariate descriptive indicate that the study's drivers engage in risky overtaking and close following more than drunk driving or speeding. The results also demonstrate that the behaviour of drivers is attributable to their personal characteristics and being young, affluent or separated/divorced can negatively influence it.
