How bout the dude that races up the open lane that is closed ahead to cut in right before
He runs out of lane. I have traded paint once with a BMW to keep them from cutting in,

1.Me driving on a 2 lane road at the speed limit and a jackass tailgating so close that I can count the hairs in her nostrils.
2.Folks refusing to dim their brights.
3.Folks with brights so intense that I get a radiation burn on my face.

Mine is the shoulder thing. People apparently are not supposed to do this in Louisiana. It is very common and strongly encouraged in Texas. You use the shoulder to let others pass you or use it as a turning lane.

Nobody knows, because Germans keep the left lane clear

People who only very gradually merge into the next lane in slower traffic for a turn, thus causing a big line of cars to aggregate behind them when their arse is half in/out the lane. The proper technique is a sharp turn of the wheel (sometimes even causing the front of the car to go to partially through the other side of the new lane) so that the car exits the old lane ASAP.

I passed someone while they were trying to turn left across traffic on highway 61 in st Francisville. I waited what seemed like a eternity, pulled around them on the shoulder. Local deputy gave me a ticket for driving on the shoulder. I wasn’t driving I was passing.
I was so pissed I put a X on the ticket where you should sign. He refused to accept the X.
I mailed them a check to cover the fine, they mailed it stating that it needed to be cashier check etc.
I never got around to it.

Trailers without lights and turn signals.
Especially at night.

Pulling out in front of me on a two lane road then going 35mph in a 45 zone. Add to the fact that there are zero cars behind me at the time.

I feel like all of my gripes have been discussed enough in this thread already.

My addition is people who use their high beams on foggy nights. It doesn't help anything, all it does is illuminate the fog even more and blinds other drivers.

Try having someone from the right lane narrowly escaping traffic on a 6 lane road to make a left turn.

That's the one for me.

Because you didn't know where you were going, you decide to inconvenience everyone else and place them in danger by speed around them, turning into their lane, then slamming on your brakes to make a turn when you can easily just pass up the the turn, make a Uturn at the light 300 feet away and be at your spot 2 minutes later.

People that slow down before they get in the deceleration lane.

People that stop on on-ramps.

People that signal after they've already changed lanes.

People that stop at yield signs and yield at stop signs.

People that when making left turns swing all the way out to the outside lane, while technically not illegal it is f'n douchey.

Assholes who drive in heavy fog in the morning time especially without their lights on. Or during a heavy thunderstorm. You can't see those bastards
