Things that piss me off!

Quick list of things other drivers do that pist me off:

1) Stopping on Yield Sign causing back ups
2) Not using Turns signal
3) Leaving the turn signal on
4) Going slow in the left lane
5) Being a slow moving island in the middle lane

I am sure I am not the only one, but depending on my mood, these things really tick me off.

I agree with all the above, but my biggest gripes are with people just not paying attention. I mean they're supposed to be driving yet they're dialing a phone, reading a map, rubbernecking, spanking the kids, etc.

Oh, and what's with people that miss an exit and still cut across the median to make it? Laziness I guess.

(2) I found old ppl are guilty at this all them time ... they are stupid and nut ... never use signal and cut anytime they feel like ... I got cut 5 times (no signal) in traffic by an old lady in 15min. I got so mad that I was about to stop, walk over to her car, and break a f-ing window.

I wanna add one more
6. reverse lights are wired into driving lights.

I just high beam any stupid guy who does it all the way 'till they move out of the way or I make a turn.

#4+5 get me f in nuts. i wish i had a military laser to blast the stupid bastards off the face of the planet.
it is a matter of poor training for new drivers. "keep right except to pass"
i never heard of a cop issuing a ticket for this, but they will get you for passing on the right, the m/f's.
whew, i just got pissed and i am at my computer, watch out for me on the road tonite going home from work.

"ROAD CRAZED"

I agree on all except for #1. Sometimes you have to stop at a yield sign.

All of those deserve a special applause in their own right. The one that really gets me off, is the guy stopping traffic to let some 'jackoff' pull out (ie. of a gas staion) into oncoming traffic. Ugh....I almost got blasted by some fuck that pulled out in a cloud of tire smoke, missing my front fucking grill by a pubics' hair length. I would have first tore out his throat and then the dick-face that let him in!!!!!!! UGH.....that really pisses me off!!!! I would have broken some spines if shit would have gone down.

in my area, people are infatuated with pulling over and stopping on the shoulder of the expressway. It annoys me because its dangerous, and it causes traffic to slow.

Also, there are tons of exits, why don't people take an exit if they need to stop?

ONE of the things that totally pisses me off is #2, and of course I move to a city that seems to be plagued with the non-use of turn signals. It's so bad that I'm starting to wonder if they teach the non-use of turn signals in drivers training. However, the thing that drives me up the freakin' wall is when someone pulls out in front of me and accelerates (slowly I might add) to half my speed.

that's funny, 'cuz when i was on assignment in chattanooga, it was exactly the same. i would be the one speeding on the freeway, passing everyone (in the right lane), and then look at my speedo and realize i'm doing the speed limit and everyone else is driving like 5 less!

i think they teach you to drive slow in the left lane AND the right lane on the highway in TN.

now i'm in a little redneck town, chanute, ks, and we have a joke going...how do you know if someone is from chanute or just here for the project? whether they use their turn signals or not.
