What annoys you most on the roads?

[Aardvark]

The other drivers. All of them.

Pedestrians who wear the invincible armour of stupidity and stray onto the roads because they don't see why they should spend the extra energy walking the 5 metres to the pedestrian crossing.

Scooters and Cyclists. Worthless little obnoxious twats, the bloody lot of them.

Motorcyclists are the only other road users, aside from me, that I can live with. They seem to realise that when faced with a ton or so of steel, they will always come off second best, so they behave in a manner conducive to a longer life. This is just fine by me.

 

[Xojins]

Old drivers, cops, and tailgaters.

 

[xitel]

People that slam on their brakes to stop tailgaters. Like that's a good idea.

It is. That way when they hit you they're at fault.

But your car is still messed up. And you can still get injured pretty badly.

 

[Bratzzzzzz]

People getting in my way whilst i am trying to drink coke, talk on my mobile and watch my 20" in car DVD player when driving. Inconsiderate bastards.

 

[Phase_9]

Other people.

 

[Puppeteer Putin]

People who don't use turn signals.

Tailgaters since they just can't accept the fact that I'm going to do the speed limit and I don't care if they like it.

People who don't use turn signals.

All of the above. Especially Tail-Gaters. Stop speeding! There's no point, you'll just get to the same pair of red lights about 30 seconds before I do. Congratulations, you just wasted fuel you toss-pot.

 

[PumpItUp]

People who don't stop at red lights or crosswalks, instead trying to make the yellow light and end up blazing through the red, nearly obliterating any pedestrians (me) at 80km/h. You'll think twice when you see my obituary in the morning paper.

 

[LewsTherin]

People who talk/text on their cellphones while driving.

YOU WON'T DIE IF YOU TURN THE FUCKING THING OFF, THE ANSWERING MACHINE WAS INVENTED FOR A REASON.

If being connected to the rest of your feeble mortal existence is so important, buy a bluetooth headset and do us all a favour.

[/vent]

 

[darkless]

People in sports cars who drive at day with there headlights on to draw attention to themselves.

 

[Rednog]

People who turn on their directional signal and a second later try to cut in front of you because they think their blinker is a magical GTFO of my way signal.

 

[cobra_ky]

people who don't brush snow off their roofs, so it freezes solid and blows off in chunks on the highway. people die from getting hit by ice off of trucks and it's such a stupid, pointless way to die.

 

[rabidkanid]

That my parents are usually with me.

 

[Drake the Dragonheart]

having cops following me.
jerks who have their headlights on when behind me and bbq my retinas when I look in the rear view mirror.
seeing other drivers at a traffic light digging in their noses like it was an archaelogical dig. to add to that, drivers who pick and flick, and topping that is drivers who pick and do exhaustive research.

 

[Lucane]

People who don't use turn signals.

Within a 36 hour period of time I've had one person turn without a signal followed by another who had a turn signal on so I figure I can enter the lane then she kept going straight ... and gave me a dirty look on top of it.

Also people who turn the otherway from a dual lane exit infront of or with the other side exiting.

 

[captain awesome 12]

Old people, and the traffic lights in California. In one of the towns I was driving in they have made ticketing a part of the local economy, so they have to make a certain amount of money through citations. Anyway they've made the traffic lights have really short yellows. I've ran a few red lights because they switch so fast.

Oh and people who don't use Turn Signals. That is the worst.

 

[JamminOz07]

The other drivers. All of them.

Agreed.

 

[Random Argument Man]

-Slow people.

-People who go in my lane from the opposite direction.

-Overcautious people.

-Idiots who races on the highway..

-Altough I don't support drunk driving, I hate those people who go apeshit on you for one sip of alchohol. You know, one friend comes and says "hey, have a taste". One time, a girl at a party stole my friends bottle of gin and dumped it down the toilet. I just had one sip. She still says "I saved your life".

 

[brtshstel]

I don't like riding in the passenger seat when I'm in the car with my girlfriend; she isn't the best driver even theough she thinks she's good. I'm a misogynist when it comes to motorists in general though. I wish automatic transmissions were never invented. That way you always have to have your hands free, and you have to know how to operate a car instead of just having an easy-to-get piece of plastic that says you can drive. It would also keep the women who don't know how to drive (i.e. MOST of them) as well as some dumb guys off the road. It would also keep people from driving with their cell-phones as well, or at least force the mto use bluetooth or some other hands-free system.

Also, living in Davenport, IA, you will hear Iowa drivers cursing at the Illinois drivers who venture over here, with shouted key phrases like "go back to Illinois!" I agree too. They cannot obey speed limits, yield, signal or merge worth a damn.

 

[Duck Sandwich]

Teenagers with sports cars in general. The ones I've seen usually drive way above the speed limit and make their tires squeal at every turn. Nevermind that they shouldn't even have the damn cars in the first place - pretty much any teenager who doesn't have mommy and daddy pay for insurance/gas has enough trouble paying for a normal car, let alone a sports car.

I've seen some of these people with big holes in their front bumper, still driving like morons.

Oh, and tailgaters can go fuck themselves, too.
