Or when the driver stops clearly before you do, but waits til you come to a complete stop before they go.



Well, I would actually advise more people to do this... nearly been hit several times because of people not stopping.

People who stop to make a right hand turn into a parking lot or side street. I will never understand this!

People.who slow down for green lights in case it turns yellow.

People who don't use blinkers.

People who refuse to stop on the white line thus blocking my view so I can't make a right fricking turn.

They be stoppin'. They be turnin'.

Also, people driving below the speed limit in the left lane, which is about 90% of all texas drivers.

Whenever someone doesn't like the way I drive I just say "should have left 5 minutes earlier". Then they would have avoided me and my terrible driving etiquette. Really gets people mad

That issue does not affect me, but I really get frustrated with people driving 50 mph in the left lane on the highway when there is no traffic in the right lane. See it every day, and am constantly having to pass on the right.

And keep up with the car in front of you. Pisses me off when there are 3-car-length gaps in between left-turning cars. Instead of 7-8 cars making the light, only 3-4 make it through. WTF are those people doing?

Better question is, who makes these fricking lines. There is no standard for dimensions. Some places remind me of Neyland Stadium.





supply demand and space.

enough space? make em big (most walmarts). very little space with high demand? pack em in. get paid by the car. example: EVERY GODDAMN SPOT IN METRO NEW ORLEANS

They got there first. They have the right of way. I motioned to let them go first. They then decide to motion me ahead. Why do do that? We have rules for the road. They broke two of them. They had right of way and I motioned first. Those same types wait until there is literally no traffic to cross a four lane. Overly contious drivers flip me out.


I totally agree with this. My other pet peeve is when someone in front of me does not pull into an lighted intersection to make a left turn on an unprotected green light. they end up sitting through 3 cycles before they even move

People that dont use cruise control when they aren't getting ready to turn off the road anytime soon make me want to pulverize them.

I don't get it.
They'd rather let their speed fluctuate 10-20 mph than hit the little button on the left.

Back in the late 70s to early 80s when the CB craze was going on, many folks had a PA feature added. I have often wished I had one today.

I could really educate some folks with timely announcements on the road.
