Tail gating idiots.... Who are on your tailpipe when you're doing 5-10 over the limit already. If you are driving on back roads, and 5-10 over isn't gonna get you to work on time, shoulda left earlier you moron!
People who assume that since I drive a Buick, I'm automatically going to hold up their journey down this road, so they feel compelled to run me off the road or pull out in front of me. Then I'm the one hogging their rearview mirror when they are slowing down for the tight corners and now they are in MY way since I take those corners at speed!
People who wont pass trucks. Going 20. Uphill. With plenty of room to spare. A couple weeks ago headed to work (which is a lot of up and down hills), I'm following 4 cars following a milk truck. Guy in the truck is doing 20 going uphill, and the first car behind him is giving him a freaking mile-long gap. Fine if you dont have any balls to pass, but let the rest of us have a go. At some later point, still following said truck, about 3 of us pulled out and passed the first guy behind the truck, and the truck, and the guy in the first car had the nerve to flip me off, then get in behind me and ride my tail. ("Oh, so now you find the go pedal?")
When I could turn right on red, but the guy in the left turn lane keeps pulling out further ahead of you (the inching forward hoping to turn the light green guy), and you can't see anything coming in his direction. Then the guy behind you in the right turn lane starts honking at you for not going.
Cops who don't follow traffic rules.
Where I work, there is a McDonalds up the road in the plaza, where traffic is so bad, that flow is blocked from turning across traffic in or out of the lot. Its just that dangerous. You have to go across the lot to the light coming out of the shopping center to go the other direction across traffic.
So, I'm headed home from work sitting in the McDonalds lot, and see a sheriff's van make an illegal left turn across traffic into this parking lot, nearly cutting off a car headed north in the process. They just couldn't wait for their big mac and go up to the traffic light like the rest of civilization. I watch them approach, they look up at the line to turn into the plaza building up at the light. Then they make the beeline illegal left at the last second to avoid the wait. So since you're a sheriff, you are allowed to cut through traffic and cut cars off to get to the drive thru before everyone else?
And last but certainly not least.. people who wont contain their farm animals or pets. I nearly hit a puppy on the way into work yesterday. no leash, outside of town on a back road. Further up the same road, I nearly put my car in the ditch to avoid their dog laying out in the middle of the road about a week earlier. Deer are one thing. Going in as early as I do, I try to be careful. Watching for them is bad enough. But please, keep your pets inside or contained somehow. I don't want me killing your 6 month old puppy on my conscience. We have a fence around our yard to keep our dog in, so should you. Just because you're outside town limits doesn't mean jack. So we have a leash law in town, that means you can let fido and his friends play ball in the middle of a major highway because you aren't "in town"?
I had that on my mind all day at work how bad I would have felt if I had hit that poor guy. Careless idiots.
