What is the ONE thing that raises your blood pressure the most when you are driving?


Mine is someone that cuts you off then drives way under the speed limit. If you are in such a f*cking hurry that you felt the need to cut me off then be gone with you. Get out of the way...

I have two.

1. Refusing to use turn signals. These should be used at EVERY corner, EVERY lane change, EVERY entrance/exit on the highway, etc. NO exceptions, NO excuses.

2. Having that damn cell phone glued to their friggin' ear!

***EDIT*** Add another one to this list.

3. Drivers who cannot stay in their own lane. Never let your tires touch the paint. It's not that difficult to figure out.

One that must hurry to cut in front of you..only to make a right turn!!!

Yes, the person that cuts in front of me and slows down really irkes me -- especially if there is a stop sign or a red light ahead! Oh, gee, let's hurry up and STOP!

I am bothered by people that travel in the fast line on the freeway but will not heed to faster drivers behind them. "Slower traffic keep right" is not only a courtesy but it's the law.

Very well said!

***The idots of love to drive on the brakes... every few seconds they seem to slam on them.. err . especially when you go to pass them and there is no car for hundreds of feet away.... Ha ha ha ha... IDIOTS....

***The motorcyclists... who think they own the road and don't need to obey road rules... stay off my butt.. stay in your lane... and don't sneak up past others illegally... pfft and most of them wonder why ppl say they came out of the blue... IDIOTS...

*** The people who speed and swerve in and out of traffic in such a rush with out thier blinkers and yell at you for "not seeing them" or letting them through... and then act all pissy when they are in the same spot as you are at a light... bwhahaha... I can't but help to point and laugh at them.. that technique was proven to not shave time off any trips but add more on... ha ha ha... IDIOTS...

There's a 4th one --

4. Drivers (mostly elderly) who drive for 3 friggin miles with a directional signal on and they never turn.

people on the phone, or talking to the passenger, while they forgot the blinker was on

Loud music at stoplights... I always adjust volume accordingly.

rubber necking.

Drives me nuts when I figure out, the only reason I was sitting in traffic for hours is because people slow down to take a look at a cop having a car pulled over.

All of these can basically be summed up as being inconsiderate. Too many people today have no consideration for anybody else. Turn signals are there for a reason. Don't expect me to help you make a turn if you don't signal it. Don't think that if you run up to the front of a long line of waiting cars that I'm going to let you in. And I leave two seconds in front of me, not for your unsignaled, illegal and dangerous lane change, but because I'm being being safe.

A little consideration goes a long way.

makes me think of that bumper sticker "how's my driving? call 1 800 eat sh*t" there are a lot of things that are annoying with other drivers . Being aware of those people like we all are. We just have to be more careful... but cell phones/ texting while eating a burger ? well that's really someone I stay clear of.

Oh, yeah! Those bastards really chap my ass!



If everybody drove like they're supposed to, there would be a hell of a lot less accidents.

I like your reasoning. However, I am not in kansas.
In LA its, dog eat DOG!

With all that being said, it's to bad city folk think they are the rats ass.

I'm sooory for the erosion of tradition and respect.

Yes, it's a whole different world where they have REAL traffic. I've driven in LA. Made me never want to live there. The entire east coast was pretty much the same.

Been there, done that.
Sorry to be a small part of the problem.

If I had a choice, I would not live here either.
But it is what it is, and I am what I am.

Although I am getting ready to treck through the midwest pretty soon. Looking ofrward to meeting you all.

As long as you don't think I am wierd with my dog.
Have to take my dog.

My new one that pisses me off is the A-hole in front of me with their eyes glued to their GPS on the dashboard, throw in being on the phone just makes it worse.

xactly.!!!

I'm a pretty defensive driver, so I'm prepared for what's going on in front of me.

It's the stuff behind me that is scary. I've called 911 on more than one occasion for some pr!ck driving right up my butt on the highway (no, I'm not in the passing lane, nor am I driving under the speed limit). If I have to brake suddenly, there are kids that are in my backseat who would probably be severely hurt upon the inevitable impact.
