Here's the obligatory j/k, lol,

Meter flickered on that one but still wasn't sure! Sort of started out with the joke response then transitioned into serious mode.

Just so nobody believes the white boarder means drive on through!!!!!!!!
I would rather that most of you guys stay alive because I actually like some of you.

I can't stand this one, and it doesn't even make sense why people do it. On several occasions I have been stuck behind someone going 45-50 on a road with a speedlimit of 55 (I typically do 60) but when that person turns onto the same road I do, a road with a speedlimit of 35, they take off away from me like I'm sitting still, even though I'm doing 40. Why would you go 10 under on the higher speed road and then 10-15 over on the slower road?

Followed an old lady today that did exactly that! I figured she only knows one speed.
Got better though, as when I got up beside her I noticed she bore a strange resemblance to a mummy and obviously was barely alive much less should be driving still.
We were at a light and when it changed she started to creep forward right up until I started to pass her then she took off. I figured great Mumm ra is taking me on in her 15 year old Crown Vic.
She gets up to the next light and waits to turn left in the middle of the intersection.
The light goes red and she sits there in obvious panic.
Then she backs up! Right into the front of the SUV behind her. Panics again and heads back into the intersection (still on the red) and just about gets t boned.
The light changed and I got the hell outta there!

People who don't understand how to zipper-merge. I drive a road on my way to work that goes from two lanes down to one and at least once a week someone tries their hardest to not let me over. Luckily driving a small car makes forcing your way into tight spots a bit easier.

Two words.

Prius drivers

I think those Eco egotists speed through neighborhoods knowing people can't hear them in an attempt to kill them.

People who signal left when they make a right turn.

People who see a long line of cars all patiently waiting to "zipper merge" onto the slow moving highway, and decide "Fuck all these people" and charge around the entire line to drive a "wedge" in at the end by merging at the last second.

More than once I have seen a person jump OUT of line to try this and I pulled over into their lane to block them while waving for the lane I just got out of to continue.
I received applause for this as the drivers saw what I did and passed us...
I have had ZERO trouble merging back into line, they graciously let me back.

People who tailgate so close that their brake lights look like disco lights for miles straight. I think I have counted over 200 brake lights from one car over a 10 mile period where I touched the brake ZERO times while following a proper distance behind him.

Women putting on MAKEUP while driving. I once saw a woman using an EYELASH straightener while driving.
This is a tool that requires you to stick something in one eye while watching what you are doing using the other eye, in a mirror.
An endeavor so dangerous that one shouldnt try it standing still in the bathroom, Much less WHILE DRIVING!
I yelled at her to put the makeup down and drive the car! And I get the finger....nice!
