ROAD RAGE! What pisses you off most???

[OMG Jim]

I have lived in a large metropolitan area my whole driving life and have learned to put up with the congestion during certain parts of the day but no matter how calm I try to stay in traffic there are 2 things that ALWAYS set me off.

1. Slow ass driver in the left lane of the expressway or multi-lane road holding up multiple cars and causing dangerous passing.

2. People that don't use their blinkers. I hope they remember that when they get cut off the next time.

How about ya'll? What pisses you off the most when driving?

[Lycanthrope]

Slow drivers in the far left lane, tail-gaters (not the party at the stadium kind), and people with cell phones.

[G.A.F]

I can't stant slow cars that block all the street. The same with motorcycles when they go very slow in the middle of the street and you can't pass them anywhere.
In highways, same as you: anyone not using their blinkers and doing sudden movements.

That's exactly what I was going to say.

[jeffrey]

People that STOP in the merge lane... wtf how are you supposed to merge with traffic moving 110kmph when you fucking stop.

[baX]

Stupid blond whores in expensive cars talking on their cells. They don't give a fuck about other drivers. You can see from a 100 miles that they had to suck some cocks to get their driver licenses coz they have 0 driver skills and know shit about traffic signs and regulations.

[SykkBoy]

people who never learned where their blinker is located....
yesterday, I saw a *schoolbus* cut across 3 lanes with no blinker, nothing...

I think there is a law here in Vegas that blinkers are necessary only when you feel like it or something...and apparently, I was asleep when they announced the law...

[Tom_PM]

Everyone who thinks laws are optional when they're driving, but would apply them strictly to everyone who pisses them off.

Basically; idiots.

[OG LennyT]

Truckers who take 5 minutes to pass another 18-wheeler going 1 MPH slower, on a two-lane section of highway.

People going below the posted speed limit.

No blinkers, cell phone yackers...

[Anna_Miller]

- Definately people who go slow in the left lane!!

- People who think they aer being nice & give up they right of way to let traffic go. I saw someone yesterday stop in the middle of the road to left a car turn left - they almost caused an accident. I gues thought they were being nice by making up their own traffic rules. Dumbass!

[Redrob]

People who pull out into an inside traffic lane when there isn't enough room to access the lane they want. The result is that they block the outside lane with their lame ass car waiting for the inside lane to move forward.

[VikingMan]

People who tailgate the cars in front of them at at traffic light and then get stuck in the center of the intersection while cars from the other direction are blocked during their green light. Brainless

[sumvanilla]

It drives me crazy when there's a lot of traffic and there's always that one car that thinks there going somewhere so the chnge lanes about five time just to get......nowhere

It also drives me crazy when people don't use ther blinker or look before they get over.....last week I was almost hit twice by people just getting over and not looking

People that slow down to look at the accident on the other side of the freeway......thats annoying

Tailgaters....there the worst....they make me wanna go 35 miles an hour in a 65

[escorpio]

Cell phone yakkers! I came within an inch of getting broadsided by a cell phone yakker blowing through a red light yesterday. HANG UP AND DRIVE!!

[Brother Bilo]

#1 thing is going out of your way to let someone over into your lane and then not getting a courtesy wave. That's when I wish I had some kind of mental powers that I could just blow their car up right there.

#2 is when you have your blinker on, waiting for the car next to you to pass so you can get over and the guy coming up behind hauls ass to make sure you don't get in front of him.

Jebus, give me the mental powers to blow cars up. The roads would be so much better to drive on.

[Adam_OC3]

I'm OK with getting cut off or someone not seeing me and doing something stupid, because I've done the same many times...but I hate slow drivers who just want to sit in the left lane

You're welcome.

[Rand]

I'd like to nominate this as the best (non-business) "Thread of the Week"!

Can we get a sticky on this please?

[Horny Dude]

It pisses me off when a driver instead of waiting in line like all of us, they go to the very front and try and cut in, pretend like they didn't know the line of cars was for the exit ramp. Remember grammar school?? NO CUTS!

[Birdman33]

People who have there blinkers on since 1989 . Ohh yea and asian women

[dready]

People that don't keep right except to pass. This includes all the people that drive in the middle lane when the slow lane is wide open.

[Fireflye]

I hate people that do not use their blinker. What gives, I mean it's not like its very hard to reach over less than an inch and use it.

People blocking intersections when they come to a complete stop waiting on the light to change.

People weaving in and out of traffic trying to get ahead somewhere.

I also hate it when people fly through the red light, it happens alot here.

People that use the cell phone while driving.

Slow drivers

sitting in jail after you kill a few pedestrians ask brian surewood

[CherryLipsRosa]

This Thread is for me lolol
I hate everything Costa Rican drivers do.
1- Driving slow on the left lane and even if you flicker your lights , they will never move.
2- Motorcycles that come in front of you and drive like maniacs not allowing you to pass
3- buses that drive on the left lane even stopping on the left to pick up passengers (yes they do it here)
4- cab drivers who stop anywhere without even pulling to the side
5- Blinkers ?? What r those lol
6- when you are driving on a main road and a car decides to come out of a side road in front of you but take its time to accelerate forcing you to slam on the breaks.
7- when a car wants to make a turn onto a side road but almost stop before turning also forcing you to slam on the breaks

Ok i can go on and on lol This shows how much i hate driving here

[CurrentlySober]

I hate the moms who hold their children out of the window to go to the bathroom... I had it once where there was not only pee all down my car, but a lump of turd on the windshield...I tried to clean it wit h the wipers, but that just smeared it everywhere and caused me to hit a biker...

[abyss_al]

when the car behind me gets really really close.. I wanna stop, get out, and kill them! I usually slam on the breaks to scare the shit out of them muahahahaha

[farkedup]

when I'm passing a truck (2 lanes everywhere here) and doing the speed limit (70) while the truck is doing 60-65 and they sit there up my ass honking, swerving and blinking their lights.

What does that tell me? I pace myself with that truck that I WAS passing and let the fucker sit. I don't mind if somebody doing 80 ends up up my ass while slowing down and then backs off. If you resort to honking or blinking you get your ass stuck!

I drive a civic hybrid and drive the speed LIMIT everywhere to conserve fuel. if I'm doing the speed LIMIT back the fuck off!

This has got to be the best post in the thread

Do you live in the rural South? This sounds just like something the good ole boy's baby's momma would do.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGG GGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

[Antonio]

fucking stupid pedestrians

[papill0n]

Being a rider of a bike there are too many things to list. Everytime I hit the bitumen some idiot tries to kill me.

[Pornwolf]

I have gotten out of my car with one end of "The Club" in hand and ran up to the car in front of me to bash his fucking head in for cutting me off in a foul manner and damn near causing an accident.

If you are gonna do something dirty don't stop at the red light while the victim is behind you.

[Slick]

I have to agree about people not using blinkers. The other thing that really pisses me off is when you're on a 2 lane road and there's a car in each lane, side by side, going slow and the same exact speed, so there's no way to get around them.

[Spunky]

People who are concentrating on their phone call instead of the road

The passing lane is for passing - blockading is illegal. I've seen police in New Jersey pull people over for hogging the passing lane, even at the speed limit. NJ is among the few states where the drive right, pass left law is actively enforced.

Blockading is very dangerous - not just for you, but also dangerous for the driver aside of you that may no idea that you're purposedly blocking traffic flow - they can potentially find themselves in a crash caused by you enraging others.

With that said, tapping the break a bit can sometimes help others back off, but a better way is to be aware of cars coming up behind you and adjust your passing speed accordingly so you're out of their way in a timely manner.

I drive a civic hybrid and drive the speed LIMIT everywhere to conserve fuel. if I'm doing the speed LIMIT back the fuck off!

Driving the speed limit doesn't always conserve fuel - for one, the optimal fuel efficient speed will in many instances be lower (or sometimes higher) than the posted speed limit.

Hope you're not one of those folks who drives 50 or so in a 65 zone (seeing that a lot more these days) ... 50 can be very efficient, but a sure way to get rear-ended eventually, assuming one isn't pulled over first for impeding traffic.

[tony286]

no blinkers and people talking on cellphone without a headset not paying attention at all to what they are doing.

Amen to that! Cops should enforce that law everywhere.

Everything else you said was exactly on target as well

I'm very aware of this, I simply drive the speed limit which here is 70MPH. I save at least 5MPG doing 70 instead of 80 although 70 does burn considerably more gas than driving 50-55 I simply don't want to be that kind of a road hazard.

The only time I blockade a car is like I said when they're flashing at me and just being pushy about it. Any accident coming from the idiot trying to unsafely go around is in no possible way any fault mine. If they would have just waited a lil bit I would have safely been around.

Why the hell should I speed up because somebody flies up behind me? If I'm at the posted speed LIMIT somebody flying up behind me is driving at an unsafe speed and they need to be prepared to slow the fuck down. it is not in any way my responsibility to speed so that people can get around me.

[TidalWave]

- people who switch lanes for no damn reason, no traffic in front of them
- people going slow in the left lanes, if you want to go slow or EVEN THE SPEED LIMIT then GET OVER with the rest of your flakey buddies.

the left side of the road is for going faster and passing. If you are going slower than the guy coming up behind you, then YOURE IN THE WRONG LANE. Plain and Simple.

People who are unaware that there are really fast cars on the road and looking once then moving a few seconds later will get them into an accident. They need to look multiple times and very frequently to be sure the lane is still empty.
My car is a lot faster than yours, in the time it took for you to check the first time then finally come over (without a blinker) I could already be right along side of you.

Then why are you in that lane to begin with? If you want to go slow, stay out of the fast lane or speed up to make sure you get out of it as quickly as possible since you dont belong there.

[Spunky]

People cutting me off. usually in SUV's

No you fucking moron, the fault would be with the person deliberately blocking traffic on a highway.

Because it's the passing lane, otherwise known as the fast lane. Now why the fuck do you suppose it's called that, so penny pinching idiots like you can putter along at the "posted speed limit" or for people to quickly and efficiently pass slower moving vehicles?

[The Judge]

most tailgaters are stupid females in minivans and suv;s, you look at their faces and see that brainless expression, you are in the right lane driving the speed limit and the bitches still tailgate
