HEY ASSHOLE, GET THE FUCK OFF THE ROAD

Props to you, that gave me a good laugh.

I'll have to agree that people with the no-turn-signals get on my nerves too. I don't see it nearly as much with actual turning as I do with switching lanes on the freeway. It's even more annoying for some reason when they change lanes rather quickly without signaling.

More things that bother me:

1. Trucks. Tractor trailers to be more specific. They're everywhere where I live and the majority of them drive like they own the road.

2. People who tailgate me when I'm already going 15 over the limit or more in the fast lane.

3. Pedestrians at night that give you that glare as they cross the road after you brake suddenly for them like they expect you to see them as clearly as you would in broad daylight, regardless of what color clothing they have on. (Though they're certainly easier to spot than darker colors, experience has shown me that lighter colors like white aren't as noticeable in headlights or peripheral vision as one might think.)

Jam it back in, in the dark.

No, I'm not high, and yes, I know white reflects light, but by comparison it's no reflective vest. The smaller town I live in isn't that well-lit outside of downtown.

Someone might have already said this one, but another thing that bothers me are people that turn left as soon as the light turns green when they're supposed to yield to oncoming traffic. One of these days the person in the oncoming lane is going to have just as itchy a foot on the gas pedal and things will go bad very quickly.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I feel your pain. I live in a truck town, they're all over the place here. It's even better on the highway when you have two of them just sitting there taking up both lanes, neither making any effort to pass the other.

Similar to people that don't signal when they turn or switch lanes, people that don't look behind them when they back up piss me off. With a huge multitude of things that could go horribly wrong as a result of this neglect, I can't imagine why or how someone could overlook this. And yet, some months ago I was at a drive-thru for a Wendy's and for some reason I don't know (maybe to get lined up with the screen so they could check their order), the person ordering in front of me starts to back up. I seldom honk the horn, but I swear this guy would've backed into me if I hadn't honked.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

This actually brings to mind a question I discussed with someone (not in these forums) a couple of months ago: what if you were the person in the middle? Laws might vary from state to state (or province, what have you) on this, but would you be at fault? Theoretically if someone rear-ends you, causing you to rear-end the person in front of you, the person in front could hold you partly responsible because their jacka** lawyer would argue you wouldn't have rear-ended them if you had put enough space between you and the car in front. I know that may sound ridiculous with how you wouldn't have rear-ended them in the first place if you weren't rear-ended yourself, not to mention that you're the unlucky one that has both the front and back of your car to get fixed. But then, we hear of some pretty stupid lawsuits almost every day in this country.

I think whoever started it would be at fault completely where I live (PA), but I don't know if the same is true everywhere else.
