Impatient People

United States
January 2, 2017 2:11pm CST
I am sitting in my living room and we have the blinds up for the windows. It has been raining all day and nasty all day. Well, there is a sweet potato farm across the street from me and there is the van that comes and goes from there a lot. It was returning today and had to stop before it turned because of other cars were coming. This, of course, means the yellow truck behind him stopped and normally the car behind them would also stop but not this time. The car behind the yellow truck went off the side of the road and started driving around the yellow truck. By this time the van has turned and the yellow truck has continued to drive. The silver car almost collided into the side of the yellow truck before it sped in front of the yellow truck to get back on the road. These are the kinds of people that don't need to be driving. They are the ones who cause wrecks on the roads even if they aren't involved in the wreck. I never understood the people who do things like that or ride your bumper and then speed around you when they get the chance even if it isn't a passing area. Or those people who ride your bumper when you are already going over the speed limit and still rush past you like they are in ab big hurry. Another big pet peeve of mine is when there is road working going on and there are road signs telling drivers to merge and there are always drivers that just don't get over when told to. They always want to wait till last minute to get over trying to cut in front of other drivers still causing others to wreck. Why are some drivers just so impatient and always think they are in a big hurry or going somewhere important?

Just the same as the people in the supermarket or at the post office who ask if they can pass in front of you because they 'only have two items' and are in a hurry. I never understand why they think their time is more important than everyone elses

We have those drivers here. Very annoying. And the ones who just have to roar past just to slow down and turn at the next intersection!?

@CaseyRoss9966 Yes, all they are achieving is needing a brake job sooner.

A good question but I have no answer for it.

There are drivers like that everywhere. Those are some of mine pet peeves too. Also the people who have road rage and are yelling out the window, giving the finger, etc. Nobody is in the big of a hurry or they should be to be so inconsiderate of others and to cause accidents. They just don't care.

Exactly and it makes me so mad because they could kill someone and it seems like they wouldn't care. I feel that a lot of them would just keep driving if the cars behind them got into a wreck that they caused. No one can be in that big of a hurry that they would want to risk other's lives but them again I feel like people should care more about not texting/drinking & driving to because they can affect other's lives.

@CaseyRoss9966 I totally agree with you and there is no doubt in my mind that they would keep going and never look back or even care.
