Traffic pet peeve

My chauffeurs hate this as well.

"Student Drivers" not doing the needful

The left turn onto Highland at Old Perkins is wonkey. Double turn lane but going onto a three lane road because the interstate on ramp is right there.

Inside lane usually goes wide because the stripping is almost nonexistent. Careful here.

No lane change blinkers.

And this is at least about when I’m out walking, not only driving.

I get to intersection. 2 cars join me. Neither have their blinkers on. I then attempt to cross street (walking) in intersection to learn they are turning (coming at me).

Blinkers on and I don’t walk. No blinkers on, I assume no turn, and I walk. (No, this ain’t Manhattan with proper cross walk lights).

Don’t assume! Self absorbed drivers don’t care about anything outside of their world.

Asshats that pull out if front of you when there's no one behind you. Like that extra two second wait is gonna kill em

This and they proceed to make about 45-50 mph.

The existence of Altimas and chargers

People behind you who want to switch lanes like you do, and whenever you switch lanes at the same time, they lay on their horn

Turning on the blinker when two turns are nearby and you’re going to the second one. It’s common sense that if you have your blinker on, and someone is coming out of the closest road that you could technically be turning into, you may cause an accident. Just wait until you’re past the first turn and flip the blinker on if someone is waiting.

Seriously, it doesn't seem too bad when suburbia driving, but in the city I've seen someone in a crosswalk almost hit more than once because of this.

People being nice always screws up traffic flow. And not using a blinker. People just lay on their breaks and turn while on a busy street. It baffles me that they have no issue with not letting others know their intentions.
