Do you think a certain age, race, gender, or location are more likely to be a bad driver?
Personally, I am annoyed with people who don't use turn signals and feel the need to pass me on the right when their lane is ending. Slow drivers in the passing lane also are annoying and I consider them hazards. People driving BMWs, Mercedes, Lexus, Cadillacs, Lincolns and white trucks also seem to be bad drivers. Just curious what your experience has been.

Not signaling.
Not pulling all the way into the right turn lane when turning right (therefore making it more difficult for people going straight)
Sitting in the fast lane when you are going slower than traffic.

People who drive or ride unrestrained, and or allow children to travel unrestrained. There is no worse sight than a car where no one has a seatbelt on and I still see mothers holding kids on laps/ in their arms. Have they not seen the crash tests where then dummies get slammed into the windscreen or go through it. Sheeeeh, that drives me insane

While you obviously cant change other peoples bad habits, you can however, if feasible, plan ahead to compensate. ie: giving x-tra clearance. Metro/urban areas have more of their fair share of drivers with licenses obtained from Cracker Jack boxes. STAY SAFE OUT THERE. --IC-- PS. Lexus suv's + cell phone = crunchhhhh!

You are right on your issues. I agree with you.
My experience with teaching people to drive...Filipinos are the most stubborn to listen and the hardest to train. I call them the "I KNOW GROUP" because no matter what I tell them to do...they already know it. LOL now that is annoying.
I asked them if you know why am I here? Then they tend to change alittle.

People in front of you with their blinker going for the last hour.
Old people pulling out without looking.
Guys in trucks that ride you *** and rev the engine in heavy traffic.

To me the biggest threat to auto safety are people that use cell phones while they are driving. It is too distracting and affects the way they drive.

I'm curious why you pay so much attention to others and not your own driving. My son in law is a state trooper and he tells me that no one can drive a car 1/4 mile without doing something that he could pull them over for if he wanted.
