Which defense mechanism is being described


Problem

Alfredo was only going a couple miles per hour over the speed limit when the police officer pulled him over. He was very angry at the officer for not letting him go without giving him a speeding ticket. He obviously could not direct that anger toward the police officer without risking getting himself into more trouble. Instead, the ego shifted that anger toward Alfredo's wife as he started yelling at her as soon as he walked in the door.
