People that don't wave when you let them turn into your lane...

frick you. Any other road etiquette pet peeves? I'll start:

1-People that are not engaged with their surroundings. It should not take 5-8 seconds for you to put down your cell phone, notice the light turn has turned green and begin moving forward.

2-People who merge onto the interstate at 85 miles an hour and expect me to move out of the right lane. If you're entering the interstate, it is incumbent upon you to yield to traffic and not try and force me into the left lane.

3-Drivers that slow down to 5 mph and take 20 seconds to make a simple right hand turn.

What else you got?

I agree about the waving. If I just saved your arse, a thank you wave is in order.

People who don't use their turn signals when they're the only car coming and I'm waiting on them to pass by. Selfish, unaware pricks

I hate when people get angry when you honk. Sometimes you just need to give a friendly honk to communicate ... Yet they are offended and pissed

Letting the car in front of them get an 8 second head start before going after the light turns green, causing me to miss the light.

Also hate the numb nuts who maintain a ten car gap in crawling bumper to bumper traffic that allows everyone to change lanes in front of them

People who suspend the rules of the road, such as stopping in the middle of the road to let someone in (keep driving by, you idiot) or those who clearly have the right-of-way at a four-way intersection, and wave you through.

One might think they are being nice and courteous, but it's very dangerous.

My biggest pet peeve while driving is people who refuse to wait in line to get on the interstate/make a turn. They drive in the left lane then try to cut over last second. A few examples in Baton Rouge: the line to get on the interstate from Acadian after LSU let's out, people trying to turn on corporate from college, and people turning left onto college from corporate.

After living in the north and on the west coast, this no longer bothers me. I've been completely desensitized to it.

Cruising in the left lane.

I don't give a shite how fast you're going, if you're not passing someone, GTFO of the left lane.

Nothing worse than someone chilling at 73MPH in the left lane because the cars in the right lane are going 72.

If I'm at a red light and waiting for the light to turn green to make a left turn in a left turn option lane and the car directly across is doing the same, with no blinker.

i can't turn until I know you're turning but you don't signal because you don't gaf


I typically pull up enough to block the lane they would be turning into and then look at them like they're stupid

My biggest driving pet peeve is idiots who hold up traffic at red lights because they refuse to put down the fricking cellphone.

Legit who cares. I don't need confirmation from so and so in traffic. I legit don't even look for the wave.
