What grinds your gears while driving?

[Wolfie605]

For me it's the people out there with their LED head lights on bright like little miniature suns right about sun set. Blinding and just absolutely dangerous especially when it gets dark.

Coming at you head on bright as the sun then your eyes have to readjust before you can see again. I have thought about getting reflecting tape and putting it on certain spots of my car to reflect the brightness back at them. Instead I have gotten rather good at using my mirrors, adjusting them to what I call asshole mode.

What grinds your gears?

Slow pokes in the left lane.

People who drive like the rules don’t apply to them. (Unless it’s an open expressway at a weird time of day and you get to go fast. Then you can break that rule.)

Inattentive drivers

Slower traffic always on the right. The gate keeping in the far left lane is horrible.

Like just distracted drivers?

 

[dirk2024]

People darting lanes back and forth, like they're in a bloody race, barely missing my front or back bumper. (while I'm driving the speed limit or 5 mph faster)

I'm guilty of that. I am speeder for sure if I'm on the highway, I'm going 85-90. I do make sure I atleast see pavement between the car behind me and myself before I change lanes though.

Sort of, or people so wrapped up in their own world they dont see what is on the road ahead of them…

Yeah. I see what your saying like where they are going is more important

Driving up your arse.
Overtaking for the hell of it.
Not using indicators.
Stupid stickers and signs like Baby On Board.
Selfish parking.

Yes. Yes. Yes! YES!

 

[CuriousRick]

Idiots who stop in the merge lane. It’s a merge not a yield!

 

[SevenMuse]

When people don't yield for emergency vehicles or they wait for one to pass attempting to use it to for speed.

Nothing, my car is a one-speed

LOL, my old car used to do zero-to-sixty...eventually.

 

[pinkparkhorse]

People who don’t know how to use a four way stop.

I had to be in California a couple years ago. Driving from the airport in Ontario some fuck tried to ram past me and I was driving a large SUV. Sped up just enough to tap his rear bumper and his shit went right into the divider.

I kept going and the minor ding on the SUV bumper was covered by the add-on insurance.

The driver of the other car? Fuck him.

 

[razor33a]

People who see the construction saying their lane is closing but they just jam on at speed then want to push into the through lane and everyone gets to play stop and go because of these f*tards.

 

[Chernosoth]

The necessity of spending so much time on the road in cars, especially when I am sharing the road with semi-competent drivers. Driving was first a novelty, then luxury, then convenience, and now it's a necessity for many people in suburbia.

 

[Rj_Gallos]

As time has passed I am less tolerant of other people on the road when I am..

Can’t they all wait until I’m at my destination?’

Know one seems to be mind readers and do what I want them to be doing. They would fail if they attended my driving school!

 

[Wolfie605]

Your stick shift, baby

Anytime love

Oh I could rant about this as I have a lengthy commute to work.

People who can't figure out how to merge from an on ramp. FLOOR IT people. This isn't a side street and I don't want to get rear ended when I'm behind your ass and you're still doing 40 after a quarter mile. The car will go faster.

Signaling to change lanes. I'm not a mind reader, but I'm getting exceptional at guessing what someone is going to do based on everything my little database in my head of previous things that people have done.

Stop waiting to the last second to cross five lanes to ext.

Stop being jerks to people who are signaling to get over and let them in already. You aren't getting anywhere anyway and one more car ain't gonna make a difference.

People who weave through traffic going 80 or more like we're a bunch of idiots just trying to be in their way.

Slow pokes in the #1 who aren't keeping pace with everyone in that lane. Keep up, or move over.

People who can't master the art of whose turn it is at a four way stop. Adjust your arrival time if it's that confusing if someone else is going to arrive at the same time.

 

[sweepthefloor]

people that do not merge, or allow mergers to merge. get out of the right lane and let people onto the highway. instead the highway comes to a full stop.

following too close behind me on the country roads with known deer. if i have to stop or swerve to avoid a total deer crash but then you hit me from behind, we are screwed.

phantom traffic jams are real!
