What annoys you about drivers on the road?

hi happy, Don't you hate it when you're on a highway and you're trying to pass lanes and ok obviously "speed demon" won't let you pass, but neither will slow poke who drives soooo slow and suddenly speeds up because they can't bear to have someone in front of them. Yes, I will let anyone in front of me, except someone who I've seen is driving incredibly slow. They can stay behind me.

Hello danieltorres08, Oh the people talking on cell phones yes. I mean if you really want to talk on a cell phone, why not pull over or buy one of those hand's free ones where you can talk with out holding it. Isn't that supposed to be illegal everywhere soon? I know where I live they've proposed making it illegal but the law hasn't come into effect yet. Should be interesting to see what happens when it does.

Hello Krajibg, How do you like the long list so far? Probably enough information here to write a book...people take note of that here ;) Well, I personally always honk at people when they don't signal before changing lanes, because really how hard is it to signal when you're changing lanes?

Hi joye68, Well, I think we have enough material here in this conversation to write a book about it!! Drinkers yes they shouldn't even be driving and endangering others. People don't own the road!! Oh I agree with you on the road rage thing because it's become so prevalent on the roads. I once had an issue with that, that is I was driving along somewhere on these narrow roads where 2 lanes merge into one. Well, there was no-one coming along behind me so I continued driving. At the last second, this driver zoomed out so fast that I had to slam on my breaks. He got out of the car, walked over to my car and starting screaming at me, saying that I almost hit him! Huh? He was the reckless driver and I always hit him? Well, it didn't end there. He walked back to his car, and a moment later walked back to me thinking he'd forgotten something. He was screaming again and pounding on my window for me to open it. I don't think so. I screamed at him to leave me alone, or I'd phone the police with cell phone, but I was so shaken up after that that I had to pull over to the side to regain my composure. I really thought that he was going to smash my windows or something.

Hi lhsy2k, I think just about everyone here is annoyed by that one: the drivers changing lanes without signaling. I always make it a point to honk at someone when they do that. Oh well i don't see too many Harley's driving around so that's not really a problem for me, but I could see how it could be for you. Can I ask, but what is rubbernecking? I can't say that I'm familiar with that term? I don't know how anyone can be so stupid and selfish to drive while intoxicated?

Hi bluedandelion, Oh I agree, being cutting off by those speed demons is one of my top pet peeves, because I just think that's so ignorant and inconsiderate. Oh yes, those people that zig-zag back and forth are just as irritating, because they can cause so many accidents. I guess some people just think they own the roads...:(

Hi youless, I've never been to China so I wouldn't know, but do you have the green light sign for pedestrian only-where there's a picture of someone walking? Or when the light turns green, it's green for EVERYONE? So, I'm guessing that you can't turn right on a red light, well you can in most places here in Canada. On the rare time that you can't there will be a easily marked sign. Oh yeah, another country, where the drivers don't yield to the pedestrian...

Hi dlr297, Oh the phone thing yeah...I agree with you there because I've noticed there are mostly 2 kinds of phone users: the kind that drive carelessly that can't do 2 things at once, or the kind that drives incredibly slow in their lane. I make sure when my phone rings to pull off the highway, or side road, plus I think that soon the law will come to effect where I live, where we can't talk on cell phones.

Hey bhargavoza, Oh I see, I had to think for a moment what you were saying there. Do you mean when someone drives from the wrong side of a lane or something, or goes down a one way street?

Hi seanbryan, Oh wow you're all the way in the UAE! Yes, yes, yes! That's so rude & annoying when other's wont let you in, especially if you're always nice about letting others in, that's just well, karma because they're supposed to be letting you in! Do you ever notice that when you look at those people that won't let you in that they won't meet your eyes? They'll usually look straight ahead and pretend they don't see you. Well, I've noticed that. Oh I know I don't like being cut off by drivers either, because it's so easy to get into an accident that way too.

Hi webearn99, I like the terms you used: Zip, Zap Zoomers, cutters and sputters :) Yeah well I'm amazed sometime when I see some of those people just quickly zip in and out of traffic, parking spots as if their life depended on it. Maybe that's their "karma" getting back to them by having them stall in the parking lots? ;)

Hi nijolechu, I agree. I hate all of the above but especially when someone drives really slow in front of me, or especially if they drive without using their turn signals. Now, that's just plain laziness if you ask me. Actually, I always honk if someone either cuts me off, or if they turn in front of me without using their turn signals. I get really frustrated driving with my husband though, because he never honks when one of those morons cut him off or not signal in front of him that I secretly want to kick him.

Hi again Sehlers, :) See I think those things are just plain rude and inconsiderate, I mean really do these people honestly think they own the road?! You know I'll honk at people that do these things, and it's funny but they usually just look straight ahead and refuse to meet your eye. Oh yeah that's so dangerous to be driving on the freeway, and be cut-off by a moron who's driving below the speed limit. If the police were to see them they could get a ticket for that. I call those people the "road hogs" that drive like turtles, and won't let anyone pass them.

Hi karissakho, Oh by overtaking I'm guessing that you mean what we say "cutting off"? You know when you're driving along and someone, cuts you off in front of you so you have to slam on your breaks. I hate that too.

Hey roniroxas! Long time no talk! ;) You know I think that's terrible that there are people like that driving on the road, that well, are only on the road because they bribed someone for their drivers license! We have too many careless drivers as it is, never mind the ones that don't know how to drive. I don't blame you for not feeling safe enough to not want to drive in your country, because I think that if I were you, I'd feel the same.

Hello lelin, I agree with everything you've said!!! That's true that probably early Sun or SAt mornings are the best time to be on the road, because I know that the rest of the weekend you have the "holiday drivers", that is people who are taking their time looking at scenery and pretty much driving much slower than they normally do. Well, I know for myself when I'm driving I pretty much observe people and how they drive, and I'm good about letting people in as long as they're not the turtle drivers. If I see someone driving really slow, and next wants to get in front of me I won't let them, but everyone else is fine. One of my biggest gripes has to be about the lazy, selfish drivers who don't signal.

Hey phoenix! Long time no hear! :) Oh I forgot to mention the tailgaters, yes I would agree about that. Although what do you do when you have someone driving too slow in front of you? Will you tail gate them back or what will you do? I'll try to pass them somehow even if it's somewhere you're not really supposed to pass because I've said it before, I just don't like being slowed down by a TURTLE! Oh now that's another ignorant thing that some people do: the slow turtles that will automatically speed up so that you can't pass them. Now that is very ignorant! :(
