So I'm driving, responsibly and reasonably with traffic, and the lane to my right had a old van just barely moving faster then I was on the freeway. So this woman with a SUV (I think it was a road ranger or something like that) and she was straight up just having a conversation on the phone, tailgated the van, honked and swerved around.

What pissed me off is that we are all doing fine until this ***** comes along chatting with her friends and not paying attention to the road. I mean you can even see her flapping her hands in reaction to what she is talking about or hearing. I just wanted to wait till we come to a stop light (cause the freeway ends with a stop light) and yell at her to get off her cell phone. I did that with a couple of women already (cause that's all I've been catching, I'm not sexist) and yell at them until they finally get off the phone. It's better me yellin at them instead of getting a ticket with a huge fine on it, but they'll get what they deserve.

But seriously, I really wanted to curse this girl out, cause she was first, acting stupid by talking on her cell phone and endangering people around her, treated the person in the van like **** and sped away. I maybe a bit of a hypocrite myself, but talking on my cell phone with speaker activated or bluetooth headset, but the only time I will talk on the cell phone is if I forgot something or will be called with an update of information of where I need to go or do. Again, I'm talking on speaker phone with my phone in my cup holder or my bluetooth headset, not phone to ear and holding a stupid gossip conversation.

The po po's need to enforce the law a lot harder, cause I'm getting tired of being caught for something, yet these people are getting away with murder.

OOOH I just want to get a bumper sticker that says "you're an effin moron!" and slap it on their windshield...

What pisses me off: People staying in the overtaking lane and they're going slower than the speed limit. Oh god how that annoys me.trentman7

You just described my mom. God I hate her driving.

One time I was at a bad intersection near my house actually this was like last week and I let some guy go and he flipped me off.GeForce2187

I hate people who talk on their cell phones or put on makeup while driving. btw, I heard that it doesn't matter if you're using blutooth or speakerphone or not, talking on the cell phone is more dangerous than drunk driving. Can't link it, I read it a long time ago. ;)the_foreign_guy

Ever since I've moved to California I almost get into an accident on a daily basis. I don't understand why people wouldn't think that paying attention to the damn road isn't important when your driving. I've driven in a lot of different states and California takes the cake for worst drivers by far. ( No offense if you live in California, I think California is great, just not the driving ;)modernsapien

The thing I hate is when you're getting off the freeway and some idiot suddenly remembers that this is where he needs to get off so he zooms like 4 lanes over and cuts you off.

I sometimes think about getting into accidents with people just to spite them. Please tell me I am not alone in this.

Old drivers. That's it, mostly. Other drivers annoy me in various ways, but that is just an annoyance. Old drivers, on the other hand, really have absolutely no ****ing idea what the hell is going on, and that is a LOT worse. Furthermore, at least young drunk drivers have SOME incentive to not die in a car crash. They still have their entire lives ahead of them. But with old drivers, what do they care? They KNOW that they could already wake up dead any day now. They've accepted the fact that they have a good chance of dying tomorrow. They spend every day EXPECTING to die, so they have absolutely no problem driving a car when they KNOW that they are no longer competent. They simply don't care. Because they are old, and will probably be dead tomorrow anyway.

no way is it worse than drink driving but it is still really bad.

Haha yeah the old people who switch lanes without a blinker who drive 15 miles an hour under the speed limit and 30 on the interstate or highways.

What pisses me off: People staying in the overtaking lane and they're going slower than the speed limit. Oh god how that annoys me.trentman7

I don't even mind that all that much. At least then, you can switch to the right lane, use that to pass the car, and then get back in the left lane.

What annoys me much more or the people who see a slow ass car in the right lane. They then get into the left lane, get right next to that slow ass car, and then match speed so that NO ONE can pass ANYONE.

And a lot of these people do that on purpose. It's not an accident. They're just trying to be ****s. These are the same sort of people who drive 15 miles below the speed limit on a one lane street, just to piss off everyone behind them. You can TELL that they are doing that **** on purpose, because they immediately start to speed up once the one-lane street divides into two lanes. Once it becomes a two lane street, they can no longer block traffic because now people can just drive past them. This makes ultra-slow driving futile, and there's no longer ANY reason to drive so slow. So they then speed up dramatically as soon as the one-lane road becomes a two-lane road.

And that is how you can tell that they are jackasses.

Yeah, but before he got THAT senile, there was probably a point at which he realized that he was starting to become too senile to drive.

In that way, it's sort of like drunk driving. Both senility and drunkeness impair people's ability to make sound judgements and to drive well. But when you run over a baby because you had too many drinks, it doesn't go over very well when you say "sorry, it wasn't my fault. I was drunk!"

Same thing with senility. It's an EXPLANATION for why people are dead, but it should be an EXCUSE. At some point, the drunk driver should have REALIZED that they were becoming too drunk to drive, and should have stopped driving just to play it safe. At some point, the senile driver had to have seen signs that they were becoming senile, and should have stopped driving THEN.

I had 2 incidents recently that really pissed the living hell out of me. I was driving on the highway and it was one of those traffic jam situations. Anyways, as my lane was starting to move foward, this guy thinks he can shave a few minutes off of his ride (because he obviously thinks the rest of us like being stuck in traffic...) by cutting me off and jumping into my lane. Now I was pissed off, but then the guy has the audacity to stick his head out and turn his head back to look at me and start yelling :| I was about to get out of my car and beat him into submission :x After that he did the same thing to 3 more people and he yelled at them all.

Second incident was when I was driving and this woman just randomly turns into my lane in front of me. No signaling or anything. Normally it would just be a minor annoyance but then I looked at her car and saw that she had folded her side mirror and was just driving without even caring about the drivers at her sides :| Moronic drivers....

Another incident but this isn't recent, when I visit my parents in Africa and I'm driving some people will just stop. I mean they will just stop dead in the middle of the street, get out of their car and walk into the nearest shop :| I was freaking shocked. I should start keying their cars :evil:

you're story was way to long for me to read but i would like to let you know that i clicked on it because i kind of cared for a split second but then again i didn't really care i just wanted to get a one thousandth post and i did so now i have one thousand which is a lot it's pretty much the beginning of four digits and im typing this to see if you'll read all of this or just skip it like i did yours even though i will truly never actually find out if you read mine or not but then again what's with airline peanuts? are they peas that fly or nuts that fly? oh em gee my peepee is growing from thinking about you reading this message and i hope you enjoy it to the fullest and you get turned on enough to touch others innapropriately. GOOD DAY SIR! UNI3OM3ER

What. The. ****?
