Speeding Tailgaters. It's dangerous and agressive.
The same as you - those who don't move over when they are clearly able to and are obviously holding up other traffic.
People who swerve in and out of other cars in a dangerous fashion.
When EVERYONE is waiting in line and one guy drives on the shoulder or refuses to get in line and goes up to the front and forces his way in - it just makes the problem worse.

There are so many things...
People who have to slow down to 10 MPH in order to make a turn and you're just trapped behind them waiting.
Cell phones don't bother me that much, but the texting does... Figure out where the letters are so you don't have to look!!!
The person in the car pool lane who goes 50 MPH. It's illegal for you to exit the lane, but the "regulator dude" up ahead is making the lane go slower than normal traffic!
When I see little kids without seat belts wandering around the car... What kind of parents are these?
My favorite thing is when a bad driver has personalized license plates and then I know who to direct my anger towards, like " Screw you Sunny01!!!! Move over Sunny!!!"
"Hey BOB909, Buckle up your freaking kids!!!" LOL

Pet peeve?
Entitlement and (this goes with "entitlement") self-absorption. The "I'm the only one on the road" or "I'm the most important one on the road" attitude that so many people hold is downright scary, especially when most of the streets have 45-50mph speed limits.
People refuse to signal, stay in their lanes, look before crossing over lanes or pulling out of driveways, acknowledge anyone else on the road, and most importantly - they refuse to put down the darn cell phone to drive.
You're (general "You," not you personally) driving a huge metal death machine, but you can't pay attention because you're so important you need to be on the phone 24/7? Right. And when you get into an accident, you probably have no insurance, too. Or, it'll be the other person's fault.
I can't stand driving.
Another pet peeve - tailgating. It's not funny, it won't make me go faster, and it will only make everyone miserable because I *will* slow down (If you're going to hit me, it's better to do it at 20mph than 50).
Ah.
Glad to get that rant off my chest.

It's a close call between the one you mentioned and: When you're coming to a point where two lanes converge into one, and the right lane is backed up, and people decide to drive to the front of the line, in the left lane, and cut in. Because apparently they and where they're going are more important than anyone else. And sometimes I'll pull my car into the center of the two lanes, at the back of the line. To kind of say, "See? This is a line. Remember the manners you should have learned in first grade. Don't be douchebag, wait like the rest of us." And some people will try to get around me anyway.

I do not like drivers that drive under the speed limit.
Drivers that block the passing lane.
Drivers that stay on the right lane and block ppl behind from turning right.
Drivers that don't pay attention to the lights and don't move until 10 second have passed after the light turns green.
Driver's that don't use blinkers and expect you to slow down when they turn.
I could think of a lot more but those are the ones that come to mind now.

Biggest pet peeve about drivers: People who think they OWN the road. It can be by cutting you off or by driving 15 in a 30mph zone when there's a huge line behind them. You can always spot people like that. And if you happen to pull up beside them after all is said and done, then they give YOU the look of death, like you were the one causing the problems!

I agree with you about the people that drive in the fast lane indefinitely, for no apparent reason, and hold up traffic. Have you ever noticed that when some of these drivers actually do move over, they tend to drive faster in the slow lane than they did in the fast lane? It baffles me to no end. They are so completely inconsiderate and should be sent back to driver's ed. I also can't stand folks that stop in front of you to turn, but can't seem to find the turn signal...inexcusable laziness.

As we all make mistakes and we all have our bad days, we need to be tolerant. That doesn't mean things don't annoy me. I just don't know which is my biggest "pet peeve". Usually our biggest is the one we just had to deal with. In my case, today, I was stopped at a red light behind a car, and just when the light turned green, a hand reached out the driver's window with a lot of garbage, tossed it onto the pavement, and drove off. I honked, and at the next slow down, I drove up alongside, saw they were two girls (or women, not sure which) and yelled that their behaviour was kind of piggish. So I probably fulfilled someone else's pet peeve!

Jerks who need to A) Go on the freeway who then B)Get in the fast lane and do 55 the whole time, that or when cars are driving below the speed limit and have room for about 4 cars to fit in between them and the people there behind but they won't go any faster. Then they wonder why people get pissed witch lanes cut them off and accidents happen!!!!!!!

People who don't know how to merge properly. If you are going up a ramp, don't stop at the end!!! How are you going to get up to the 60 miles per hour in like 10 feet! Also people who are merging into traffic don't even look and gun it to beat you. If you go the speed limit everyone should be able merge properly. Also people who think they own the right lane, just let people merge, don't be an a$$. I also hate women drivers in an Suv, talking on the cell phone, yelling at their kids and drinking a Starbucks all at the same while turning with no blinkers. This is a daily occurence I see. There is multi-tasking and then there is WTF.........

That one falls under the "if you can't run with the big dogs, stay on the porch" rule!..*lol* Seriously, mine would have to be people passing in the right hand lane. I have went to switch lanes and almost smashed into several people for not using the designated passing lane.
