This topic got swallowed up, diverted, and overlooked as they usually do. So, I started a new thread specifically addressing Worthy member's personal list of driving pet peeves. These are random in order. Does anyone have more to contribute and or confirm? More On Drivers Who Are Rude And/Or Inconsiderate. 1. Drivers who don't use a turn indicator. It is the law, and we all should observe this common courtesy. 2. Drivers who pull in front of you to make a right or left turn ahead of you. Often not signaling. 3. Drivers who tailgate because they are in too much of a hurry. 4. Drivers who do not observe the speed limit and drive too slow. 5. Drivers who fail to come to a full stop at a four way sign. Known as, "roll-stopping". 6. Drivers who sit through traffic lights because they're using cell phones or putting on makeup. 7. Drivers who run run stop lights causing potential traffic hazards. Often fatal collisions. 8. Drivers who are basically discourteous and have no consideration at all for other drivers. 9. Drivers who don't know how to drive because they are not licensed to drive in the first place. 10. Drivers who are teens and violate all or numerous of the above. Go back to driver's training! 11. Drivers who do a hit-and-run accidents. These are unlicensed and uninsured drivers 99% of the time. 12. Drivers who back out of their driveways and parking spaces without using a rear view mirror. 13. Drivers who take up two parking spaces to avoid getting their precious vehicles from getting dents. 14. Drivers who refuse to park straight in parking spaces making if impossible to park next to them. 15. Drivers who never use safety seats mandated by law to protect their beloved little tots. 16. Drivers who huddle the stripes in the road in attempts to avoid swerving back and forth. (drunk?) 17. Drivers who speed up when you attempt to pass them because they were driving too slow at the time. 18. Drivers who text and or use cell phones while driving. (illegal in CA) 19. Drivers who blast their stereos loud enough to be heard for several blocks away. 20. Drivers who drive while obviously impaired on alcohol and/or drugs. 21. Drivers who use handicap parking spaces without a proper license plates or placards. Anyone else? Edited January 12, 2020 by BeauJangles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were copy/pasted from two pages using the same font on a topic of road rage concerns. I get down right frustrated while driving at times, but not road rage. Anyway, for some reason this page looks a little different and I'm not sure why. At least it did come through legible.

Please put away your phone and drive. If you are talking on your phone and texting it distracts your driving. You may run into another driver or me and hurt us seriously 2. Please use your blinker so when I am driving behind you I know what you are going to do. 3. Please do not cut me off when you are coming from a side street. Be patient and let my approaching automobile pass you with an appropriate amount of space. 4. Please do not tail gate me when I am going the speed limit. I am only obeying the law. 5. Please do not go through a stop light. You could take my life. 6. Please do not drink or use other drugs while driving. It affects your judgment and you may run into me or another car with a family in the car and kill us or cause use very serious damage. 7. When passing another car please do it safely. You could hit me head on and kill me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love & Shalom Yes, exactly. Real inappropriate time and place for it. I've seen it done even while driving on occasion. Extremely dangerous! I mean, pull over somewhere and primp for crying out loud. Oops. Sorry, ladies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right. These are very dangerous driving tactics. Just an accident waiting to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drivers who honk long and repeated behind you because they're generally angry at something else*. 23. Drivers who park off the roadway for whatever purpose but do so far to dangerously close to traffic*. 24. Drivers who don't use headlights lights during foggy days*. Other drivers may not see you. 25. Drivers who don't use headlights after dusk when it becomes dark *. (ditto) 26. Drivers who enjoy sightseeing while driving *. (called: rubber-necking) Keep your eyes on the road! *These are violations of the DMV Code in the State of California. A note on #22. It's illegal to use your horn in this manner unless it's an emergency to avoid an accident. I don't write the laws, I'm merely posting them. What grinds your gears? Anyone else?

Oh, yes. You see this happening in parking lots especially Walmart for instance, all the time. Good one sister! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
