You have to start early. If you do it at the taper someone will run out of lane and have to stop. Then the flow is fricked.

When I approach a backed up construction zone, get over, and people still pass by trying to get up further. I usually position my vehicle in the middle so they can't go around and frick everyone else.

Not using blinker


This, and it's not close.

I rarely get upset on the road, but not using your blinker when turning off the road while I'm trying to get onto the road will do the trick.

It's people driving in the left lane and although they're going well above the speed limit, when they go to pass a large semi they slow down and take forever to pass. WTF people, speed past those trucks. Thank you.

I commute about 60 miles on the interstate each way to work. Number one is people who have no concept of using cruise control. Without fail at least three people will pass me then get over and slow down when going uphill. 90 down hill then 70 uphill. Just fricking set it and go.

When a hot chick in the car next to me won’t look over at me. If she’d only look at me she’d want me.

My biggest pet peeve is when drivers try to police inconsiderate drivers and put people in danger in the process. 18 wheeler drivers are the worst about this.

A distant second is when I’m going 85 in th left lane with no one behind me for a mile, coming up on a couple cars in the right lane and the trailing car waits until I’m a couple car lengths back to change into my lane going 65 and causing me to take evasive action instead of waiting 1.5 second and changing lanes after I’m past them. 18 wheelers are also he worst about this, but I’m pretty sure it’s entertainment for them.

People in the lane next to you a few cars lengths back who speed up when they see you put on your blinker.

People that don’t go the speed limit or don’t at least go the speed of the traffic around them. fricking makes me lose my mind and I’m not a guy that speeds typically but it still infuriates me.

People who go 20 on St. Charles
People who go 30 on Highland Rd
People who stop at yield signs
People who stop at roundabouts
Green lights that last less than 5 seconds
People who pull out slow at said lights
People who block the intersection

People who fly up on me in the right lane, tailgate me as I'm decelerating without my brakes for an upcoming speed drop, jump around me, move in front of me... Then slam on their brakes when they notice the speed limit change.

People who don't understand when lights are timed. Lead foot idiots race ahead to a red light and stop traffic causing compression effect congestion. These morons actually think they are better drivers because they are faster, when in actuality they are the cause of the congestion.

People who are looking for a particular street and stop at every single street until they find the right one.

You’re assuming that somebody synced the lights to work in conjunction with each other. This area does not have that.

Don't live in BTR anymore, but there are timed lights. They actually use to have signs that told you.
