Question Pet peeves about other drivers

I'm doing some research about bad driving habits and road rage, so tell me what your pet peeves are.

- What makes you irritated?
- How do they **** you off?
- Are you a road rager?

Anything would help.

Thanks.

Ok, here I go:

Changing lanes without signaling.
Switching into my line then driving slower.
Double parkers.
Changing lanes without looking.
Swerving in and out on the freeway.
People that dont give the right of way at a four way stop.
Redlight runners.
Stop sign rollers/runners.
Peolpe that take up two parking spaces.
People that park in the handicap stall and aren't really handicapped.

Thats all for now. Writing this makes me angry. Haha

No signal lane changes
Braking for no reason right in front of me
People who drive slow
Cell phone drivers who can't multi-task
People who act like they are the sh*t cause of their phat system on a ghetto ride
When drivers can't make up their mind where they want to go, as if lost
People who act like they know how to drive fast ect.. but are just being unsafe
Not letting you in a lane even when you NEED to get over, like offramps ect..
Anyone not driving a Subaru...lol.. jk

Driving in the fast(passing) lane and staying there even though they should be over at least 1 lane.

Trucks driving 70+ MPH 15 feet from other trucks driving 70+

Idiots who cant stay in their lane when traffic is merging/idiot who cant merge at the speed of traffic.

Driving like an idiot in congested traffic ie. switching from far left to far right and back again within a 1/10 mile span.

Indecision and ignornace of other drivers on the road. Pretty much covers everything.

But Id say specificly not using signals, making me pass your crusty *** on the right while youre in the fast lane on a completely deserted 3lane highway, and...oh yea, waiting at an intersection until I get really close AND THEN pull out in front of me; thats a good one.

The people that don't understand how to merge (like a zipper)
People that don't use their turn signals
People that don't move to the number two lane after passing a car, or sit in in for miles on end (try that in Europe)
People that cheat the carpool lane

I've written all of my pet peeves in other threads. If I stop being lazy maybe they'll make in here, but this is the most I can think of now.
