Typing "your" when you are trying to say "you are".
Driving 20mph on the highway in the left lane because "OMFG IT'S RAINING AND MY SUV IS GONNA FLIP OVER". (Naturally, when I'm stuck behind one of these idiots, there's usually some impatient asshat behind me who's flashing his brights at ME as if I'M to blame.) If you're that nervous, get into the right lane, or better yet, get off the freaking highway altogether.
Bringing a baby or small child into a restaurant past the child's bedtime. Parents of small children - go out for lunch, go for an early dinner, or get a babysitter. Don't drag your 3yo into a restaurant and let him/her run rampant because s/he really should be in bed.
And on that note, I have a pet peeve with restaurants that offer children's menus that obviously clash with the restaurant's normal offerings. I understand a burger joint offering a small burger and fries as a children's offering. But I have been to Indian restaurants that offer mozzarella sticks and fries on the kids' menu (geez ... offer them a small plate of pakoras or a half-size plate of chicken tikka masala). I could go on from there. If you are going to the trouble to take your child to a <insert cuisine here> restaurant, let him/her order a small plate that adheres to the cuisine. Otherwise you might as well take him/her to McDonald's.
