Things I hate about driving...

After witnessing an unusually high number of driving hazards today, I decided to come up with a list of things that aggravate me about driving. Feel free to add to it!

I hate...
  1. old people who drive while talking on a cell phone (this was a new one for me today).
  2. pedestrians who cross the road without looking for incoming traffic.
  3. people who drive sporty looking cars but don't drive fast enough to pass a bus.
  4. speed limits.
  5. people who tailgate.
  6. people who don't get out of the way when being tailgated.
  7. people who brake on groat road.
  8. people who brake.
  9. extortion like gas prices.
  10. people who don't turn on their headlights at night.
  11. cars with broken headlights.
  12. the fish symbol plastered to the back of cars - we really don't need to know which God you believe in.
  13. people who don't signal or give enough warning before turning.
  14. drivers who become overly cautious at the first sign of snow.
  15. people who take up two parking spots.
  16. cars that barely take up half a parking spot when there are no free parking spots for blocks. (luckily, I'm one of them)
  17. morning rush hour.
  18. evening rush hour.
  19. taxi drivers who decide the best place to drop off/wait for a passenger is one of the driving lanes in downtown during rush hour.
  20. the Toyota Echo - excluding the Hatchback ;)

How about pedestrians who has no common sense at all and try to cross the road at a BENDED stretch of the road WITHOUT looking both ways? Don't they know that there may be cars driving really fast at the other side of the bend that they can't see and that we can't freaking see them either?

How about Asian drivers who can't see over the steering wheel so they look THROUGH it and can't really see the road because they have a steering wheel in their line of sight... (I know it happens with *other* people too, but I see it most frequently with Asian drivers.)

Or people who redline off the start, especially when there's ample amounts of crap on the road, temporarily blinding you.

People who drive SUVs and trucks in the city. Yes, we know you have a small penis, too much money, think you're "safer" driving a giant behemoth that will (hopefully) flip over when it hits a pebble, and that you have never taken your vehicle off-road.

Freakin' idiots!

Haha good point people.

Megan, maybe you should start a business that makes booster seats for vertically challenged drivers? haha
