%X in the barcelona men's penitentiary centre, there has been a recent increase in offenders serving time for traffic offences. the objective of this research is to obtain a psychological profile of a sample of 115 inmates, to assess what the predictors of aggressive driving are and, finally, to compare the possible existence of different types, depending on the absence or presence of other offences with or without aggression. the results show that causes of, or states that cause, irritation, as well as a family history of aggressive driving and the presence of psychiatric disorders are all predictors of aggressive driving. they also show that physical aggression is a predictor of accidents. there are no differences in offenders who have committed other types of offence.
