You are so right on, JT...braking before using a signal drives me nuts. You never know what's going on.
Cell phone in their ear, oblivious to all around them.
Failure to yield to faster traffic ("lead, follow, or get out of the way!")
PEOPLE WHO SPEED UP WHEN YOU PASS THEM!!! This is huge because of how dangerous it is. I would say that at least 25% of the people I pass, whether on a two-lane highway or an interstate, speed up as soon as I pull near them. IT'S INSANE!! Jim
: Highly dislike when someone is turning, R or L, puts on their brakes, and THEN puts on their turn signal about 10 feet before the actual apex of the turn.
: Cars w/o cats that smell bad causing me to have to go to reccirculate mode on the vents.
: The fact that my wife always finds a better, in her mind, parking space RIGHT after I commit to one.
: People who hang their front end out into the lane of oncoming traffic. Just once I want to buy a $300 car and drive around the city taking these peoples front clips off.
: I drive relatively fast, but tailgaters drive me insane. I usually wait until they are right on my bumper and nudge the brake pedal just enough to put the lights on. They get the hint after 2 or 3 repititions.
: "That's all I have to say about thaaat."
