Drivers!! What is it that annoys you about other drivers?

Question

For me it 2 things. 1, when drivers are so busy on their cell phone, they have no idea they are about to side swipe, or run into the back of another driver. and 2 this is the big one I hate the most, when people tailgate. You driving up my as* isn't going to make me move any faster, or get you where you're going any quicker. why should I drive faster and risk getting a ticket because you're in a hurry? What about you guys?

Answer 1

Mine is people going waaaay under the speed limit
I live just off of a road that is 80kms...Ive been stuck behind many many people doing 50-60kms! Drives me up the wall
Oh and people who drive in the middle or right fast lane on a freeway and go under the speed limit. Stick to the left people!

Answer 2

It is more than likely the person is on the cell phone while driving if:
1. You avoided a head-on collision or were in one.
2. Looked in your rear view mirror and see your life flash before your eyes, because it looks like this person in the SUV does not see you stopped at a stop sign or red light.
3. Passed up the street to turn on, because if you slow up to turn you will get hit in the back, because some fool is going way too fast to slow down.
4. At a stop sign and waiting for what seems like hours for the person to turn, because he/she has the right-away.
5. Almost get hit or have gotten hit by a car while crossing the street.
Yes you guessed it, using the cell phone while driving is not only an annoyance, but it could be fatal. So morons, if you need to talk on the phone, do not operate heavy machinery.

Answer 3

The elderly! I have much love and respect for my own grandmother but I sure would not want to be driving behind her. She would go way too slow and go over the lines on the road and just be plain dangerous. So many times I have had to dodge an elderly person because their eye sight is so bad that they are legally blind and their reflexes are very slow. So many stories in the paper about wrecks and deaths of innocent people due to a very elderly driver making a fatal mistake. I believe that the DMV should check into people after they reach a certain age to make sure that they are still safe behind the wheel. One day I will be elderly and when the day comes that I become unsafe I hope my children will tell me it's time for me to be a permanent passenger.

Answer 4

Yes, yes, YES! I totally agree about the tailgating. What makes someone think that's going to encourage anyone to drive faster??

I really don't like the fact that so many drivers seem to be completely inconsiderate and disrespectful... as if they are the only person in the world. It's so arrogant - we all have lives, places to get to, things to do, families to drive home safely to, and children in the car - just like the guy/girl next to you (or speeding passed you). It's just not necessary. Slow down (get there alive, save gas, etc...), use a signal, change lanes with at least a FEW inches between cars, get off the phone, and let someone merge once in a while - it actually feels good to be nice!

Wow. Thanks for letting me vent. (: Didn't even realize I needed to!!

Answer 5

Drivers THAT DRIVE BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT in the middle of the road and won`t move over to let faster traffic through.
and
Drivers that do every thing else but watch the road while driving, such as phones,make up,hair, reading etc
and
Drivers THAT nearly wipe you out or nearly hit you and then give a stupid sorry wave and drive on as though nothing happened

Answer 6

1. Tailgating for sure.
2. drivers you move to let on interstate getting right up beside you so you can't get back over.
3. Idiots that pull right in front of a 18 wheeler and slam on their brakes. You know the type can't wait two more seconds to get to off ramp. They swing out pass the 18 slam on their brakes right in front of him where they can get off.
4. Morons that get right in a 18 wheeler's blind spot and sit there.
5. Morons that get right in rearview mirrors with their brights now and follow for miles blinding you.
6. Idiots that get up beside a 18 wheelers tandems and sit there like they have a death wish and are waiting for a tire to blow out and take the top of their car and their heads off.
7. People that follow just far enough back that you can not pass them and the car ahead of them at the same time. But, too close that you can't pass just them with out forcing them to hit their brakes.
8. Women putting make up driving especially passing or being passed by a 18 wheeler. Don't you ladies know the back wash is going to suck you right into the 18 wheeler if you are not paying attention.
9. Idiots talking on the cell phone and reading the paper while driving.
10. DRUNK DRIVERS.!
and the list goes on. Ask anyone who has ever drove a 18 wheeler.

Answer 7

I'm with you. I hate drivers who tailgate and once I notice, I slow down on purpose just to frustrate them more. And it's not like I drive that slow; I'm generally OVER the speed limit myself.

People running the red light make me angry too.

Answer 8

tailgaters and people who are too lazy to lift a finger to put on a turn signal, and people who litter their drug habits (tobacco) all over the road and hit other cars in the process with their butts. the only thing i will say is that if you want to follow too close to an 18-wheeler, that's your business, you're only hurting yourself, unless you have other people in the car with you, then you shouldn't do it. but if you just want to kill yourself, drive on the 18-wheeler's bumper, i won't care at all.

Answer 9

Dumb 17 year old BOY As@holes who think that driving well means speeding at 50mph on a 10mph street at night, screeching around corners and double parking while playing ignorant music to impress ignorant friends.

Answer 10

People with loose dogs in the car. Nothing annoys me more than when someone has their dog in their lap. They pay more attention to the dog than the road. Especially if the dog slides off the lap and down to the floorboards.
