Using the Personality measurement Instrument, 16 PF-5, the results indicate the existence of common traits in frequent and non-frequent offending drivers, low levels of anxiety and emotional instability ( C-), low self-esteem and little interest in giving a good self's image ( MI-), extraversion low (EX-), distracted and with absence of practical sense (M+), suspicious, self-absorbed and calculators (N+), with difficulty in acting with others (Q2+) and inclined to be tense and impatient (Q4+). What is noted is the presence of personality traits that favor a generalized trend in drivers to the transgression of the transit code.
