Top 10 annoying drivers - Blu-ray Forum

Uniquely · 01-12-2009, 10:27 PM

10. That driver that turns their hazzard lights on just because it is raining hard. To me..... from a distance that looks more like a vehicle that has pulled over to the side of the road to wait it out.

9. That driver that rides your tail, even though they can clearly see there is another car right in front of you. "Hey buddy..... I can't go any faster than the dude in front of me."

8. That driver that is going 15 MPH below the speed limit on the interstate. "Dude... if you or your car can't go interstate speed... don't get on the interstate."

7. That left lane driver who makes you pass him on the right.... then as soon as you go to pass him on the right..... he speeds up and tries to keep you from passing.

6. That person who doesn't pay attention to when the light turns green and just sits there.

5. That person who runs the 4-way stop by snugging up right behind the guy whose turn it really was.

4. The cell phone talker/texter who can't do two things at once and keeps coming out of his lane and/or slowing down.

3. That person who is riding the left lane not passing a thing.... and so you politely give him the double headlight flash... you know... flash flash.... and he takes it as a personal afront and slams his breaks and slows way down.

2. People who are too lazy to use their turn signals. Let's face it.... laziness is the only real excuse to not use one's turn signals when changing lanes or turning.

and the number one most annoying driver on the road is........

The Left Lane Driver!

The left lane is the proper passing lane for a reason. The driver is seated on the left side of the vehicle... so he has a much greater field of vision to his left. If you're not actively passing another vehicle... or do not have an imminent left hand turn..... there is NO REASON to be in the left hand lane.

What annoys you on the roads?

SHines-IT · 01-12-2009, 10:33 PM

All of the above... I rarely talk on the phone when driving, but I do when needed. I been looking into Blue Tooth head sets.

BruceWayne · 01-12-2009, 10:34 PM

People who don't recognize or use acceleration lanes... I had an older lady stop at the end of an on-ramp to the highway and wait until there was an opening. It's not only stupid, it's dangerous.

I'm sure I will think of more...

Marquoz · 01-12-2009, 10:38 PM

The person who goes from the far left lane crosses 3 lanes of traffic and makes a right hand turn.

The person when you have a left hand turn and a right hand turn off right after the turn that turns from the left hand lane cutting you off RIGHT at the acceleration point so they can make the right hand turn.

Idiots that don't know how to merge when passing, speed up to pass you, get in front, then slow down. If you are going to cut me off, MOVE.

People who drive RIGHT next to a car on a bridge and don't pass the person forming a block where nobody can pass.

Idiots in trucks that don't know how to install headlights and have them facing directly ahead and up a little instead of down and to the right. They sit right in your mirror so you can't see anything.

Crim122 · 01-12-2009, 10:38 PM

When you are driving and there is a sign that says "Merge in ____ miles", and the group of people who go ALL the way to the end of the lane before merging then expecting people to let them in? Gets on my ****ing nerves.

The other night it was really windy and a big tree fell in the road, so the cop had the right lane closed off...this fool DRIVES up behind the cop blocking the lane off to turn into the left lane so he didnt have to wait in the line...I wanted to go up to him and bash his windows in. THEN THEN he was trying to force his way into the lane? **** you!

SHines-IT · 01-12-2009, 10:39 PM

Should give her a bump, lol. I also hate people who throw shit out the window. The idiots on crunch rockets who weave in between traffic. Also the moron who cuts in front of you then slams on there brakes.

Oh I hate that. There's one turning lane on Veterans here, and it's a pretty long lane, and backs up quick. People constantly try to get in front of everybody slowing the back of the lane up. I get very aggressive in those lanes and don't let people in. I've had people honk and curse at me, I roll down my window and tell them the line starts in the back not the middle.

A lot of times I will pull half-way in between my lane and the one that is supposed to merge, that way they are at least behind me.

Crim122 · 01-12-2009, 10:55 PM

I had to pick someone up at the air port once, and yeah the line was long...it was 2 days after Christmas...and this dude tried it THERE, I was not going to let him in and he was trying to speed in front of me...if he would have hit me I would have probably got into some trouble. lol

jsteinhauer · 01-12-2009, 11:01 PM

Those who blow off stop signs to get in front of you and drive slow, despite the fact that no one else was behind you.

Regulators who drive slow on the left on purpose, because you ought to be driving the speed limit.

NOW

Driving on the left is fine, if you are driving faster than 95% of the other drivers. I almost always move over promptly for faster drivers (unless they're idiots, which will take too long to explain).

Speed limits have no moral or ethical value, by the way. Just so you know.

petenad · 01-12-2009, 11:04 PM

All the above are real road raging events in my book. But don't forget the combos.
The people who can't just speed of other vehicles for example....Your in the passing lane doing 120+kms coming up on slower traffic who are traveling at just the speed limit of 110Kms then just as you pass they cut you off to pass the guy who's traveling 90kms in a 110 zone waiting for some dumbass to rear end him almost promoting a certain pileup.

Ahh but see...... you are still slowing down the faster driver just by being in the left hand lane to begin with. He doesn't know if you are one of the very few who will actually get over these days. He has to assume that you are one of the majority who will just drive there endlessly..... and adjust his speed accordingly before he ever gets to you.

OMG I HATE THIS. i do 4+ hour drives all the time. and wide open highways with no cars..and there's still some idiot strolling along in the PASSING lane. it doesn't matter if you're going 100mph or the speed limit. stay in the right lane unless youre passing!

Blu-Benny · 01-12-2009, 11:14 PM

the people that don't move up into the intersection and turn when the light goes yellow!!! b/c i'm fast enough to follow you through if you'd actually go but now i'm stuck @ another red light b/c u're not smart enough to realize what's going on!!!

yeah i love that. hey lets wait until the light is red..that way i stop traffic going the other way and nobody else can follow me!

Uniquely · 01-12-2009, 11:18 PM

That reminded me of another one! You know how traffic gets really heavy at certain times of the day..... and the light beyond your intersection is red and traffic is stopped. I hate that guy that just goes ahead and pulls into the intersection and blocks it. He's just sitting there at a dead stop when the cross intersection light turns green..... and none of those people can go until the other light turns green and that inconsiderate boob can move forward.

Don't move into an intersection until you know you can clear it!

Hmm, my vehicle has a rear view mirror. If someone slows down a half-mile back, that's their problem.
