The Five Most Annoying Drivers on the Road
If there’s one thing I love to do in this world it’s drive on the open road. There’s just something awesome about taking a drive, enjoying the music, and getting from A to B with no hassle. Except the part about no hassle is rarely if ever true.
Driving can be a serious pain in the ass sometimes. Ranging from traffic to getting lost, we always seem to have unexpected crap arise. Speaking of annoying crap, usually the worst problems are other drivers. While I love driving, I can’t stand drivers.
And here are five that drive me up the wall…..
The Cell Phone Talker
I’ve mentioned this before and I’ll mention it again. I truly think that people that talk on cell phones in their cars deserve to be jailed immediately upon being found out. They are as dangerous if not more dangerous than most drunk drivers. I don’t even want to get into people who text while driving. I might pop a blood vessel even thinking about it.
The Guy Who Goes Up your Ass
Part of this is my fault and part of it isn’t. I tend to look out my rear view window pretty often. Nothing is more annoying than seeing a car that you know is within 3 feet of you. Part of me wants to smash on the breaks but then there’s the potential of me getting nailed. The whole thing about MPH and car lengths is never observed on the road. You know, for every 10mph that’s how many car lengths you should be behind?
The Super Slow Driver
Now I don’t like to be the guy whose up anyone’s ass but come on. When the speed limit is X and you’re going like 10 mph under it with no traffic? Let’s not kid ourselves, you’re a total douche. Pick it up will ya?
The Fast Reckless Guy
These are the guys who clearly have something to prove. They weave in and out of lanes like it’s NASCAR and are just aching to get past you. I love when I’m on the road with these people and you see how hard they work. I’ll just chill in one lane never really getting that far behind.
The In and Out of Lane Guy
These are the people who you just assume are going to crash into you if you stay next to them for a long enough amount of time. Is it so hard to stay inside your lane? Apparently it is and apparently tons of people love to swerve.
Even More Uncoachable Stuff
Nonono… the worst are: no blinkers gal (it’s normally women!), I’m-in-the-fast-lane-and-I-don’t-care-about-anyone-else guy.
You forgot the ‘slow turner’ and ‘idle through the yellow light while in front of you’ guys
you forgot the looky lou’s!!!!!!!!!!!! HAAATTEEE THEM with a passion
how about the people who think they can monopolize the fast lane? when someone is coming up behind you in the fast lane..GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE WAY.
How about those texting with their heads down or huge trucks that cut you off or push you off the road.
Guy in front of me who refuses to turn right on red. He just fucking sits there wasting my life.
Driving on the cell phone is not as dangerous as drunk driving.
who ever wrote this, is a complete moron.
I’ve always thought it would be a nice law that if you were on any type of public assistance, then you would be limited to driving during hours that those of us that work to pay for people who won’t (notice I didn’t say can’t) aren’t on their way to work…such as, you may not drive between 6am-9am, 11am-1pm, 3pm-7pm, 10pm-1am.
My top 2: People that don’t signal, and people that drive under the speed limit.
Florida has nothing on LA drivers. I’ve seen traffic come to a full and complete stop because there were Mexicans in the fields bordering the freeway picking strawberries. People were stopping to stare, as if they’d never seen a migrant worker in a field before.
Here in Canada, it’s ok to stay in any lane but we’ve got signs all over saying “Slower traffic keep right” and it pisses me off to no end when there’s some granny going 10 under in the left lane.
Also, it should be illegal for semis to use the left lane at any time.
Funny post man, and I love the pictures. I’m gonna have to say the cellphone talker is highest on my list as well. Thanks for a giggle.
it’s “brakes” not “breaks”
I tail because the last thing I need is another driver cutting in front of me with a foot of space and brake…HARD because the car that was in front of me was slowing down. Happen far too often
no-blinkers is my hate. is signaling so hard? move your finger an inch before changing lane to give me the courtesy of acknowledgement before getting in front of me and slow down?
It is irrelevant why someone drives slow on the fast lane, it should be banned, but those yapping on the cell swerving all over in the fast lane while driving slowly is another pet peeve of mine.
