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 :shakes head:

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

m4a1mustang 06-30-2009 03:39 PM

Ricers.

phelan 06-30-2009 03:42 PM

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

Crash 06-30-2009 03:57 PM

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!

smurfblu13 06-30-2009 04:02 PM

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.

webgirl 06-30-2009 04:04 PM

When people wash their f*$@!^# windshields in front of you.

Crash 06-30-2009 04:07 PM

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.

xiven 06-30-2009 04:13 PM

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.

I kid you not, it happened to me on the way home from washing the car last week. I almost lost it.

Crash 06-30-2009 05:03 PM

^^^ 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!

zZSportZz 06-30-2009 05:36 PM

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.

:iagree:

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!)

didymus 06-30-2009 05:46 PM

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.

m4a1mustang 06-30-2009 06:28 PM

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.

BanningZ 06-30-2009 06:28 PM

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. :D

The thing with that is you are supposed to merge at the merge point. I hate it when people in an on-ramp cross the SOLID WHITE LINE to get onto the highway. Especially in traffic... it just focks everything up.

You are supposed to go to the end and merge there.

frost 06-30-2009 09:05 PM

everyone else on the road.

CrownR426 07-02-2009 12:40 PM

When people stick on your ***!
Relax, I understand it's a new car and all but keep some space at least!
On my way home the other night this girl in her 5 series kept sticking so damn close to me throughout this one town I through. I'm scurrrrrred

nogoodname 07-02-2009 12:44 PM

Other drivers annoy me...lol

just take a vacation here and I dare you to cross the roads...lol

ZzzZz 07-02-2009 12:54 PM

1. When there's no traffic, people driving in a car pool lane going slower than everyone else in the "normal" lanes.

2. When there's hardly any traffic but drivers form a "wall" of cars by all driving the same exact speed leaving no openings and clogging all lanes.

nogoodname 07-02-2009 12:57 PM

I hate ppl who drive right behind you and then pass you and then take the highway exit, all in 100 meters....lol..... I don't get that
I usually speed up and they miss the exit.

When entering onto the highway, ppl change into the right lane where I'm trying to merge into..... Damn stupid to do.
I end up on the shoulder and then pass and cut them off.

xiven 07-02-2009 01:01 PM

is there a survey somewhere of what the ratio of smart to dumb drivers is? i would guess ... to be nice... around 1 in 10

TX_370 07-02-2009 01:02 PM

Crash pretty much has it covered.

Additions:

When people doing 10 mph UNDER the speed limit occupy all lanes on the freeway and won't move out of the way (For those of you in Houston, I am refering the Westpark Tollway) :shakes head:

When that sweet parking spot in front of you is open and you can pull out, instead of backing out. Then BAM! someone pulls in. :icon14:

People that sit at lights revving their motors.

People coming onto the freeway assuming they are the Gods of the road and you must yield to them.

People that ride their F*@&ing brakes!!

nogoodname 07-02-2009 01:02 PM

More like 1 in 500 over here.


I also hate the ppl who block the ways, like trying to get into my parking before I leave.

xiven 07-02-2009 01:04 PM

that would mean there would be wrecks everywhere all the time

GMZ 07-02-2009 01:08 PM

Tourists who drive slow as **** craning their necks to see wtf they are. Go back to (insert state here) or wherever you fags are from.

Minivans

Diesels who are either: A: So loud I cant hear my radio and/or B: Belching black smoke, both of which force me to roll up my windows on nice days.

Crash 07-02-2009 04:43 PM

RUBBER NECKERS!!! OMFG!!! When there's an accident or flashing lights or whatever, people gotta slow all the way down to a snail's crawl to see what happened, instead of getting a f*cking move on. Seriously?! Do you have so little to do in your pitiful life that you have to see a couple of cars that decided to mate on the freeway?! There's 1000 cars behind you that need to be somewhere and you think it's perfectly fine to take their time so you can look. GO, MOFO! GET THE F*CK OUT OF THE WAY! I GOT SH!T TO DO!

And it's even worse when they're on the other side of the F*cking freeway! Give me a f*cking break! There's no reason to slow down. Your road is open. There's no accident on your side. Why are you slowing down? To see an accident?! Again... GO, MOTHER F*CKER! GET THE F*CK OUT OF THE WAY! I GOT SH!T TO DO!

LiquidZ 07-02-2009 11:16 PM

Women on cell phones.

TX_370 07-08-2009 03:59 PM

People who drive trucks and stop for every damn crack and bump in the road. I mean they might scratch their tire or something. :mad:

nogoodname 07-08-2009 04:03 PM

there's a set of dead train tracks that were only used in the last world war and trucks and buses still stop to check...slows everyone down


the crossing bars are even gone......lol...track is all rusty....ha

chubbs 07-08-2009 05:08 PM

Other vehicles.

Crash 07-08-2009 05:10 PM

LOL! Yeah, we have that too. Pretty annoying.

I also hate when people are so old, they're heads practically hang OVER the steering wheel. And they drive like 30MPH on the freeway. You know they can't see crap or hear anything. They're really dangerous on the road. And you know them driving is no different from a DUI, but somehow they're allowed to drive.

semtex 07-09-2009 02:30 PM

People who cut corners when turning and nearly hit you head-on as you come to the intersection, then have the audacity to glare at you like you're in THEIR way!

xiven 07-09-2009 02:47 PM

People who wait to turn right at a light when they have a their own lane that starts at the light which was put there so that traffic wouldn't back up from the exit ramp (which it does because of these stupid people). Its like that lane doesn't exist to them. I've even seen "Keep Moving" signs at some exit ramp merges and yet people still stop and wait. I think I have every right to lay on my horn to hopefully make these people realize that they need to KEEP MOVING and stop holding up traffic.

nogoodname 07-09-2009 02:50 PM

People who beep the horn when the light just turned green, not even one second wait.... Wth ??

xiven 07-09-2009 02:51 PM

I count to 3 before honking.:bowrofl:

nogoodname 07-09-2009 02:54 PM

Blow the horn as soon as it turns green and I'm going to block you.....lol

theDreamer 07-09-2009 02:57 PM

I am a pretty calm driver but someone finally got me mad yesterday.
I was exiting off of I10 and the car in front of me got over to the exit lane, a steady line of cars was coming up from the on ramp so I let one over and had my blinker on to get over. The pick up truck raced up and blocked me, so I started to slow down just thinking he really wanted over, fine, but no he slows down. I ride even for a bit and then quickly speed up...he guns it and slams hard on his breaks almost hitting the guy in front of him. I am about out of exit room so I just start to slide over, he lays on the horn for about three seconds straight jumps over the lane onto the freeway and then guns it. Almost hits another car as he guns it getting over and speeding up.

Moral: Just because you have a big RED pick up does not make you a god of the road.

nogoodname 07-09-2009 03:02 PM

This one time my friends and I met up somewhere and decided to go somewhere. We were three cars... Lol

one guy toot his horn,we blocked him til it turned yellow and then gunned it.
Pretty mean now that I think of it.
