We all encounter stupid drivers and poor drivers every day. Let's talk about what habits annoy you the most...

Nothing bothers me more than to be in a big traffic jam going .5 mph, only to discover there was nothing wrong on my side of traffic. I.E. you're cruising south on the I-15 and suddenly traffic comes to a stand still. You begin creeping along for the next 30 minutes, only to discover there was an accident on the NORTH BOUND SIDE! Then suddenly the southbound side picks up speed again.

What about bicycles and scooter riders who DO NOT obey traffic laws or use common sense?

As long as I can move past/around others, I don't mind much...

So, for me, it's the traffic clot...at that point I can't move to where I'd like to be...and frustration kicks in...LOL

Texters suck, but people in the left lane who won't get the fuck out of the way suck.

Get yourself a headlight modulator, then they will. My highbeams flash 240 times per minute, most people are simply confused when they look in their rear view mirror when they see me following behind them and pull over. Man their idiots, they think I'm a cop.

But being in the left lane on the freeway, works like a charm. Somtimes, when I'm stopped at a redlight, I will have somebody next to me roll down their window and tell me that my headlights are flashing. Or there will be the idiots across the intersection flashing their high beams on and off trying to get my attention to inform me that my lights are flashing.

I use to use my 140 decibel Stebel Air Horn on a daily basis from people trying to cut me off, bad lane changes, etc. But since the installation of the modulator, I rarely have a need to blast anyone away to get their attention anymore. I kind of miss it, as I love using my horn.

Probably one of the best mods I've done.

I don't like the slow and confused people. They make me nerveous that they will abruptly split across all the lanes with thier brakes slammed to catch their turn. And of course it would happen as I try to pass. So I usually end up stuck behind their slow confused self.

Here's a new one...

A woman pumping breast milk into a container while driving on the interstate was issued a warning for distracted driving.

Trooper Tim Marks was responding to several complaints of erratic driving last week and pulled the suspect car over in Newport on Interstate 95 in Newport. The reports said the car was weaving on the interstate and exceeding the speed limit.

The trooper gave the woman a warning and suggested she complete the task when not behind the wheel.

State Police troopers have encountered several extreme examples of distracted driving over the years, including a woman who was watching a an episode of the television program Gilmore Girls on a laptop, as well as drivers eating, putting on makeup and texting on cell phones.

What I can't stand is people making a left hand turn from a side street across a major street and they will stop...blocking the left hand lane of the major street because they felt like that was the only time they could pull out and there is too much traffic on the opposite lane for them to complete their left hand turn.

Drives me frickin' insane when they do that. So, I have to stop in the left hand lane because they are blocking it!!!!! If you can't complete the full frickin' turn by making sure BOTH sides of traffic are clear...then don't f*ckin turn!!!!!

Thanks...I needed to get that out today. LOL
