What other drivers do to make you insane...

amiyesiam · 11-11-2010, 10:42 PM

I love to drive
I love to go the absolute correct speed limit
when the idiot behind me thinks getting closer will make me move faster
it won't
but it will tempt me to tap my breaks

I love to look at people who want to get out into traffic or change lanes
but fail to use their turn signal
I will fail to be nice
I have also found that a bit of weaving down the road
will get people off your tail (I drive home from work late at night)

When someone starts following too closely, i'll just take my foot off the gas and start coasting.

If they back off i'll continue on my way. If they don't, we'll both be going about 2 mph quickly.

A little tap on the brake works too

Signals are not a part of the *additional options package*... When driving in Denver using your signal only gives the other drivers cause to speed up... and let them know that you wish to be a willing participant in a game of bumper cars... Better yet, those people that think that they can just squeeze in when they have known for the last five fricken miles that the lane they are in is going to end...

changing lanes with out looking, checking their blind-spot and failing to signal - were the causes of my high speed rollover (& the demise of my favourite car).

Only the Southern ones? How do we know they are Southern? What if a Yankee old person borrows the car of a Southern old person and drives slow? What then....? lol.

What bugs me MOST is when vehicles fail to stop or at least slow down for a a funeral procession!

I should get the Nobel Stinking Peace prize for the crap I endure everyday, and haven't yanked some idiot out of their car and given them an old fashion Marine Corps ass whooping they would never forget !!!!!!

I would bump this thread like no other if I wrote half the stuff I see and have to tolerate. I will be writing for hours on this thread. In case you didn't know I drive for a living. I'll come back another time and post many many things. Kinda busy right now.

Swerve to keep from hitting something. Gosh that makes me insane. Hit the deer, dog, squirrel whatever it is but don't hit me head on or sideswipe me, please

Enchantress · 11-12-2010, 06:50 PM

Drive slowly.
Merge onto a freeway without increasing speed.
Get in front of me and drive 20 mph when I'm going 80.
Not stay within their own lane.
Not paying attention when a light turns green. Causing me to miss it (and honk loudly).

Drive when I'm on the road?

This is simply skimming the surface.

Just sayin'

Miss Scarlett · 11-12-2010, 08:19 PM

Highway drivers who miss their exit and rather than taking the next and turning back, they just back up on the highway!

Drivers who empty their ashtrays in the street at traffic lights or in parking lots.

NJFemmie · 12-24-2010, 04:55 AM

A-holes who speed up the moment you put your blinker on. They could be a mile behind you, but the moment you put on that blinker - it's like a race to make sure you aren't in front of them.

Billy · 12-24-2010, 06:56 AM

For some reason they like to tailgate behind the tahoe , if I can see your breakfast still in your teeth , your just to up My ass , and there is a trailer hitch on the back and I'm just sayin , if I stop real fast that steele bumper is going to be your new grill and I am not talking about on the hood of your car

bigbutchmistie · 12-26-2010, 12:20 AM

Oh Lordy

Ok, I hate it when people are driving less than the speed limit and they arent driving in the right hand side of the road...

I hate it when Im going the speed liimit and someone flies around me moves back in front of me and slams on their brakes to be an ass

When people change lanes to get in front of my car to go SLOWER than a turtle

People who dont use turn signals

Stupids who dont use seatbelts for their children

Blade · 12-26-2010, 05:42 AM

get out and drive in the snow for no apparent reason, except "I have front wheel drive" I just wanted to see how pretty it was

TickledPink · 12-26-2010, 10:24 AM

When someone pulls out in front of you IN THE RAIN! I mean, come on, are you REALLY gonna' get there any faster?

Someone applying mascara while driving. THIS scares me! There is NO way you are paying attention to the road!

Going slow in the fast/passing lane. Grrrrrr!

It might also get you a stop by the local police if one of those people behind you calls them to report a suspected drunk driver.
