Freelance Trash Haulers with debris blowing all over the freeway. Little Surprises left on the Freeway.

Stay out of the passing lane unless you are actually passing somebody or going to make the very next left turn. We all know you are doing speed limit but if you are too scared/dumb to pass the guy on the right then suck it up and get back over in the right lane.......sigh.

Actually driving along in the passing lane holding everyone behind you up is called passive aggressive and I really am concerned about you, you are giving yourself an ulcer and you aren't following the golden rule, want the rest of us to do this to you?

People who don't even do the speed limit. I followed a lady this morning in a 25mph area and she was barely doing 20 and not a road you can pass on.

Tailgaters.

People who try to merge into traffic while going way slower than the traffic flow.

Self proclaimed "cops" driving in the number one lane who refuse to move over while faster traffic stacks up behind them.

Drivers who don't understand "right on red" means stop, look and yield first.

Drivers who come to a dead stop before turning right into a driveway. No signals or show of intent. Just stop, wait(for what?) and finally complete the turn.

Rubberneckers.

"People who don't even do the speed limit. I followed a lady this morning in a 25mph area and she was barely doing 20 and not a road you can pass on."

The speed limit is the MAXIMUM speed for the road... not a suggested minimum!
Relax.. she was doing fine.

Overly aggressive drivers who ride your behind. Same who ride your behind, then pass you and get back into your lane right dead in front of you so they can make the next exit! Why don't they just wait the 2 seconds it takes for them to come up to the exit?!

People in a big hurry, weaving in and out of heavy morning traffic doing 85+ mph, nearly hitting you because they didn't leave their house early enough to get to work on time.

People who drive 45 in the passing lane, in a 55 or 70 mph zone, who block traffic by not moving over.

Aggressive drivers who turn their bright lights on, while riding your behind who could easily just go around you.

Don't even get me started.

My blood pressure goes up just thinking about it.

I want a chauffer...

People who decide to change lanes(into a lane that has no exit from the road) in bumper-to-bumper traffic...and just stop all traffic behind them, with their turn signal on until someone lets them in.

Nita, I try to think that the slow person in front of me may be saving me from an accident up ahead. It doesnt work, but at least I try :)

anette-with too many pet peeves to even get started

My dh's is: drivers who speed up to pass you [on a 4 lane highway] then pullover in front of you & slow down.. so then dh starts cussing & fuming... passes them... and it happens again.... Don't most cars have 'cruise control' anymore.... and lets still not visit the fact that most of these people are on their cells yaking it up...

People who don't use their blinkers.

People who don't drive the speed limit but as soon as the light turns yellow, they find the gas pedal.

People who talk on their cell phones while driving - you can pretty much pick them out.

People who can't drive and talk to other people in the car at the same time.

People who don't know where they are going and rather than pull over to let the line of traffic behind them go by, they just go slow until they figure out where they are going.

Drivers who barrel onto a highway when merging as if they have the right-of-way.

Drivers who don't use turn signals - how lazy can you be?

Drivers who think the roadway is the Indianapolis Speedway, weaving through traffic as if there's a big trophy waiting for them down the line.

Drivers who don't get into the lane they need to be in until the last possible moment and then they squeeze in suddenly causing everyone behind them to hit their breaks.

Drivers who pass you in no passing zones when you're going 5-10 miles over the posted speed limit.

Drivers who suddenly stop when there's no stop sign just because they think there should be one.

When a car pulls right out in front of you, causing you to slow down since they can't get up to speed right away, and you look in your rear view mirror and there are no cars as far as you can see. Why must they practically cut you off when there is no one behind you? The best is when that car never reaches the speed limit and crawls in front of you for miles and miles and miles.

My BIGGEST driving pet peeve is people driving through red lights. I see at least 20 cars each day drive through lights that have just turned red.

City drivers who totally ignore pedestrians in crosswalks.

Drivers who zip around the parking decks like it was a MatchBox track.

And my biggest one...interstate drivers who miss their exit, then pull onto the shoulder and back up for 1/2 mile or more to return to the correct exit.

Tailgaters!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mostly when the interstate traffic is flowing 70mhp and someone pulls out in front of you and pokes along causing everyone to slow down. If they are in a hurry to get on the interstate, why are they not in a hurry to get going? You would think they would get rear-ended!

People who poke along in the freeway passing lane.....

Drivers who don't pull up close enough to the intersection to trigger the light. Being behind one of them is very frustrating and can be time consuming.

Drivers who pull into the gas station and don't pull ahead to the furthest pump but stop at the first available one. DUH. That is such a no brainer.

Drivers who you are waiting for to pass you so you can get on the road behind them and they don't put their signal on that they're going to turn next to you until the very last second, making you wait when you could have entered the traffic flow much sooner if only you'd known what they were going to do.

And couples in pickup trucks (bench seats) that look like they glued together while he's driving. How can you safely drive if someone is in your lap and has her tongue in your ear? lolol

LOL Flamey. At least you know he's being distracted. Better that than her head in his lap.

If her head was in his lap, I'd just think he was a really lousy, solitary driver! rofl

People stopping at Yield signs when there is no traffic! As I learned it, Yield means just that, not stop. Drivers who wait until they are on top of where they want to turn and THEN turn on their signal as they are making the turn.

Lastly, the "leave the turn signal on because I'm going to turn eventually" folks.

People who let their pets "drive". I saw a guy last week in a pick up truck with his pet sitting on his lap...as if the pet was driving the truck. If an accident was to happen, the airbag would probably injure the dog; and if there were no airbag to deploy, the driver would crush the pet.
That's my driving pet peeve.
