Unfortunately, I am a vehicular hypocrite. When I'm in a hurry, my biggest pet peeve is the slow people. When I'm on a leisurely stroll with nowhere to be (about once or twice a year), then I hate the Mario Andretti's. Then I'd have to say I hate the flying monkey ninja bats. Damn you flying monkey ninja bats!!!! *pumps fist at the sky*

As an Orthodox Pedestrian I must say that I absolutely love traffic jams- the thicker the better!! Cars and trucks backed up for blocks and blocks and blocks, sometimes for miles and miles. Impatient drivers honk honk honking their horns, screaming into their walkie-talkies, scowling at the pedestrians like me, strolling along, smiling, unsympathetic or simply oblivious--above it all.
Of course, we do have our own pet peeves in traffic jams, like when automobiles intrude into the sanctity of our Holy Crosswalks in their gridlock madness. I've been known to walk right across the bumpers or even the hoods of vehicles stopped within a crosswalk. The crosswalk is ours- Stay Out!!
Whenever possible I like to CREATE traffic jams. I never pass a crosswalk button without pushing it, even if I don't intend to cross there...it has the possibility of stopping cars for a moment or three, the frowning drivers with furrowed brows, wondering why the light is RED yet no cross traffic is seen.
There are even some very special, very very HOLY sites where one can push the button and watch the light immediately turn yellow. Yellow yellow YESSS!!!! There have been times when I have spent the better part of an afternoon just standing there at the button. I feel such control over the vehicles operated by drivers who, for the most part, care little about foot traffic or the environment. I will wait until a large group of automobiles is just about to reach the signal and then WHAM!! Like the hammer of God, my little finger brings tons and tons of belching metal and glass to a sudden, unexpected stop. I will wave at the drivers, smile even. Some have seen me there before, have caught on to my tricks, and will honk and flip me the bird, flail there arms as I laugh the afternoon away.
Some will say that by causing such buildup of traffic I am not helping the smog situation; good point, but I figure that pales in comparison to the discomfort caused to drivers. To make driving as inconvenient as possible is my charge. Far too many people drive two blocks to the inconvenience store, refuse to carpool, refuse public transit, refuse to walk. To WALK!!! God's great gift to us all- perambulation- the movement of one's self through creation, digging it all!!!

When people weave in and out on the freeway. It will be the commute hour and they are in such a hurry that they are in the left lane, then they cut into the lane on the right in front of other people, speed up then go back into the left lane. They end up only being ahead by 1 or 2 cars but somehow that makes them go faster. And in the end I catch up to them. Weaving will not get you there faster, in the end you are just causing stress for other drivers who almost hit you and the people that you pass will end up getting at the same exit 30 seconds after you.

i have three that give me road rage to the point of scaring myself!
1. left lane drivers!!! if people are whizzing by you on the right, move the f* over!! washington is Horribly full of these retards...
2. people who come to a complete stop to make a right hand turn. there is no need!!!
3. four way stops, and the retards who wait for everyone to come to a complete stop before going. they know it is their turn, but they stare at your tires until they are no longer moving and then go. grrr...stop your tires, and then go, you don't have to wait for me!!!!

Left lane drivers. You'd think they could figure out why they call it the passing lane. But there they are toodling along at the same speed as the car in the right lane. I HATE that!
