Our biggest driving pet peeves

Nothing will get you go from zero to sixty on your anger odometer faster than someone cutting you off or taking your parking spot!

There’s a Reddit  thread where drivers are sharing their biggest pet peeves…they include:

  • Drivers who are too nice,,,for example “randomly stopping on a road to let someone in oncoming traffic turn left in front of them”  or “Waving people through a four-way stop when it’s your turn to go”
  • Not following the rules of the road
  • People trying to make a left turn when it’s impossible or even illegal
  • Drivers who cut and then drive slower than you were
  • People pulling out in front of you when there’s no traffic right behind you
  • Driving with your high beams on all the time
  • People who DON’T drive NOT with their lights on during inclement weather
  • Anyone who tosses trash out the window, including cigarette butts
  • People who don’t share the road with other drivers
  • Drivers on their phones
  • Tailgating (not the fun kind!)
  • People who refuse to let another driver in during an obvious merge
  • Drivers who don’t use their turn signal or leave it on all the time

That’s just a few…what’s yours?
