People who insist on making their right turn on red into my lane as I'm barrelling down the road and have to slam on the brakes and swerve around their dumb ass. I then proceed to cut them off.

i hate when motorcycles weave in and out of lanes or ride between lanes. i live near a bunch of colleges and hate when the college kids dont wait for the crosswalk to change and try to run across a 6 lane highway...thats why they invented crosswalks!!! my biggest driving complaint is to see the same cop on their cell phone while driving (since its illegal in ny to do that!) that pulled me over for it once!!!!

I did a bad, bad thing yesterday. I went to Bakers Square yesterday, and in the parking lot were a group of Harley bikes. I only went in for a carry out. I was with one of my sisters and when we came out and got back into my car, I backed up, and lightly tapped one of the bikes. It was enough to knock 3 of them down and the 4th one looked like it was on it's way too. My sister screamed "OMG you just knocked over someones bike go, go, go, go!" I was getting ready to go back into Bakers Square to find the bikers but she freaked out so bad. She reach her foot over and tried to hit the gas. So I just drove off. They didn't see us, but I know they were pissed when they came out. We were so scared, and I felt kind of bad, but when we got on the freeway home, we laughed so hard. I thought I was going to miss it but that light tap did the trick. How embarrassing.

I guess bikes and I just can't live in the same world together.

-People who don't use turn signals
-Gapers delays! (ugh. HATE HATE HATE!)
-People who take up two parking spots, especially when the lot is extremely crowded as is
-People who tailgate me when I'm already going well over the speed limit and when there's no way I can move over, especially tailgaters who use their brights

Your driving skills are suspect.

Today I saw the 1st person in line in the lane next to me stop an 18-wheeler length from the intersection line--NO LIE!!! This is the what I was talking about earlier. There is just no reason for leaving all this space between cars when everyone is STOPPED!!!

While I hate people who don't use their turn signals, what I hate more is when someone uses it and then forgets to turn it off (especially on the interstate). Not only does the constant flashing irritate me, but it's a guessing game as to if they really mean to get over at any point. It seriously drives me up the wall.

Other pet peeves include tailgaters, runners of red lights, and obnoxious cell phone users. All three of these type of drivers have caused me to have wrecks.

The best one was the woman who ran a red light because she was on her cell phone and ended up hitting me and my friends causing us to spin 180 degrees, almost hitting a light pole in the process. The unbelievable part though was that after the accident she didn't even bother to end her conversation to make sure we were alright. My friend ran to her car, which was sitting in the middle of the intersection, because she hadn't gotten out, and found her just sitting in the driver seat, still on her cell phone.
