Default Things that irritate you on the road.

What are things that irritate you on the road?

1. When slower cars hog the left lane, so it causes you to go into right lane and then proceed to go into correct lane, while they still remain in the left lane

2. When people ride your ***, its so dumb on the highway.

3. When people stare, at you like you have 30 heads for no reason...

hmmm

Single drivers in the carpool lane. Not only is it irritating, it's illegal! Hooray for CA and everybody thinking "FREE LANE!" -_-

People that deliberately go faster to get in front of you and then slow down to a speed SLOWER than what you were going.

People that are going slower than you on the highway and then just before you're about to pass them, they merge over into your lane for absolutely no reason and maintain their slower speed.

People that weave in heavy traffic in front of you because you know they're going to cause an accident and die and you're going to be stuck their waiting for cops to clear their bodies off the road... Inconsiderate!

People that merge into lanes VERY SLOWLY... As if the slower they merge over, the faster they're actually going. "Waters fine, dive in."

People that drive on the shoulder while you're stuck in bumper-to-bumper traffic.

People that cut me off with very little room in front of them killing my space bubble and making me think they're about to rear-end the car I was originally behind.

Jerks that have their music so loud that even with my windows up and stereo loud I can still hear their crappy music.

Ricers and M3 drivers... They seem to think they have the fastest cars on the road.

People who don't signal before turning right when you're turning left. You could have made your turn, but you thought they were going straight, so you wait, and then last minute they make a right turn.

People who signal AFTER they've merged into your lane in front of you.

People who think that just because their signal is on, they've got the all clear to just come on over, forcing you to slam on your brakes because they're impatient.

Mercedes drivers... They think the road belongs to them because they over paid for a Chrysler or 'other' rebranded POS car.

People that just HAVE to rev their motors at every damn light. Seriously. I heard it at the light before and I wasn't impressed then either. Douche bag.

Those people that drive exactly the speed limit on the streets, and they just HAVE to be driving next to someone else doing exactly the speed limit and there's absolutely no way around these two ding dongs with out going into the median. STAGGER AND GET THE F*CK OUT OF MY WAY!

the thing i hate most is huge SUVS or any other car for that matter that feels the need to go at the MOST 25mph on backroads where the speed limit is 40 or higher. Believe me they can make it.

OH!!! You just reminded me!

TRUCKS and SUVs that go really slow over tiny speed bumps. Hell, I drive faster over them in my sports cars!!! It's a F*cking truck? WTF are going so slow for? WHY'D YOU BUY THAT POS IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?!

People that think it's time critical to run their window washers on the freeway and it sprays all over everyone behind them... Now you have a moment of blindness and because I was behind you, now I have run my wipers too! Thank's, you d!ck. I just washed my car.

people are patiently waiting to get on the interstate yet at least 20 douche bags think are better than everyone else waiting in line and cuts off someone at the front of the line just so they don't have to wait.

i see it just about everyday i go to work. different people everyday, same place.

^^^ SERIOUSLY! It happens to me all the time. I used to wash my Trans Am every morning. I waxed it every 2 months. I clayed it every 4 months. I kept that car as shiny and clean as possible. And then I'd get on the freeway and BAM! Window washer crap all over my car.



Also hate when I'm in a protected left turn lane and the jerk in front of the line isn't paying any attention. Then the light turns green for us and he's sitting there with his thumb up his butt. You honk and honk, but by the time they realize you're honking at them, the light has turned yellow and he goes like a bat out of hell leaving everyone behind him at the light. If people are behind you, you have an OBLIGATION to pay attention, let alone you should be paying attention anyway!

Also hate when people get into an really small accident on the freeway, and instead of pulling over to the shoulder where they're NOT blocking traffic.

Or those totally clueless people that get stuck in a lane on the road because their car is dead, but forgot they have NEUTRAL to move their car out of the way instead of just leaving the car there with the hazards on. Seriously? Would it hurt you any to push your f*cking bucket the hell out of everyone else's way? Or do you prefer to advertise that your bucket is busted?

I also hate those people in the left hand turning lane that don't move up all the way in front of the cross walk when the light turns green. Then I'm behind them and have to sit just behind the cross walk so when the light turns red, I'm stuck in the crosswalk because the cross traffic has already started to go since the guy that was in front of me had to make such a long timely left turn. That's the dipsh*t I honk at!

I hate MOFOs that hurry up and cut you off only to stop traffic and turn off the road they just cut you off on 1000 feet later. Especially when there is not even a car behind you. I want to beat these people.

Edit: Also hate people that pull up and block an intersection when they know the light in front of them will go red...blocking the people that now have a green light...causing a mass clusterfook.

Since I ride a motorcycle the majority of the time, I'd like to add

People that think the only vehicles on the road are large ones and therefore do not need to look or share the road with us smaller guys. We must not exist. (I get cut off WAY too much!)

The people on the interstate who can clearly see several lanes of very slow traffic to their left and yet go all the way up to the end of the right lane (which is closed for whatever) and then try to merge, slowing traffic even further. Nothing makes me madder than these people who can't wait in line like everyone else.

A douchebag in a yellow Evo reminded me of another thing that pisses me off.

When two lanes merge into one, you ALTERNATE cars. Left lane, right lane, left lane, right lane.

Not left lane, left lane you FOKKING JERKOFF.

When you are driving a G3500 GMC 23 foot cargo carrier (today) and a 90's Dodge neon cuts you off only to slam on the brakes at a red light shortly after. YOU ****ING MORON! My Van could crush you into pulp from something like that. Do you realize that it takes quite a bit of room to stop a loaded cargo carrier?

It would have been part of the *Can you identify this wreck* thread, and while he is being scraped out of his car and off the street I will walk away without a scratch and go buy a coffee.

Sorry about the rant.
