Entire districts are paralvsed and the situation is driving some motorists crazy. Doctors say the stress is causing both physical and mental damage and is leading to more cases of road rage, including shoot-outs.
People who try to avoid the traffic jams by leaving home at 5 a.m. have been warned that they may suffer from lack of sleep, which will reduce productivity, make them irritable and have a negative effect on their family lives.
People are feeling more and more anxious and tense, Robert Lespinasse, the former head of the Venezuelan Society of Psychiatry, told the daily newspaper Ultimas Noticias. A psychologist, Heman D'Oliveira, said that the disruption in mental processes was making people less open to criticism.
