Abstract. The current paper has considered some issues of investigating road traffic accidents (hereinafter referred to as RTAs) caused by dangerous (aggressive) driving. There have been described the factors that negatively affect both the efficiency of individual investigative actions and the investigation. There have been identified the existing shortcomings of investigating the RTA scene, the features and difficulties to obtain objective information about the event occurred, etc. There have been presented convincing statistics and opinions of scientists, confirming the increased danger of dangerous (aggressive) driving and the severity of consequences of the RTA committed under such circumstances. There have been considered some legal aspects of dangerous (aggressive) driving and problems associated with recording this type of offense and proving it. There has been paid a particular attention to the work of the legislative bodies of the Russian Federation to combat dangerous driving. There has been proposed specific measures aimed at eliminating problems arising when investigating road traffic accidents caused by dangerous (aggressive) driving, as well as measures to combat this type of violation of the Traffic Rules.
