What's your biggest pet peeve while driving?

Question

Mine is when I'm going down the highway at about 60mph and there's no one in front of me or behind me, but some moron will pull out from a side street right in front of me, go ONE BLOCK and then TURN!! most times without even using a turn signal. Could they not have waited 2 seconds to pull out behind me?

Answer 1

It's a toss up between cyclists using bad habits (riding too close to the lane, swerving around cars w/o looking, cutting across in front of me) and dolts focused more on their phone call than the critical timing involved in navigating a vehicle.

Answer 2

People who talk on their cell phones! The are usually either going slow or they are pulling out in front of people without turning signals almost causing accidents left and right. I agree with the laws that say that cell phones shouldn't be used while driving unless in an act which requires 911 emergency assistance.

Answer 3

People on cell phones. Majority of people who drive and use cell phones are young females, and these are very dangerous people to be around when driving. There have been many close calls because of females driving and talking on cell phones simoultaneously. Try to pull over and talk. Cell phones in general are dangerous, whether you are a good driver or not! On another note, when you drive near a semi or large truck, don't speed up and pull in front of a truck and slow down, this is very dangerous!! Trucks take a lot longer to brake, and the drivers have several brakes and gears they have to shift just to slow down, not to mention the momentum of the truck itself.

Answer 4

Impatient drivers, and people on cell phones. The road is not a race track, driving is not a game, and cars are not toys. Pay attention and quit trying to drive all over everyone else. We're all going somewhere, and we'd all rather be there sooner than later. But I'd prefer being there alive and in one piece.

Answer 5

When the sign says "Right lane, Right turn ONLY" and people in that lane just keep driving straight making everyone else behind them wait until the light is green. While as the light was red, people could have turned. I always yell " LEARN TO READ!!"

Answer 6

I could write a book on this. I get so angry when I drive, I'm glad I don't carry weapons in the car. I think I get most angry when people won't allow me to merge - Seattle's roads are poorly designed and not equipped to deal with all of the traffic, so during rush hour, you have to rely on people being nice and allowing you to merge. Most of the time, people will completely ignore you, scream obscenities or flip you off. They don't realize that not allowing people in, only backs up traffic even worse.

Answer 10

I hate when I pull out onto a main road and some jerk who has been traveling on that road feels they have some unnatural right to it and gets mad at me. I mean really, I just going up one block and turning. I gotta get my signal fixed.
