Omg the people who ignore the merge signs and zip all the way to the point of no return and cut in line. My pickup is beat up enough that I don't care and will keep creeping up behind the car infront of me so that they can't cut. I wish the other people in line would do the same. Assholes.


"Zipper merge". Google it.

Waiting in a long line at an exit, turn or off ramp, and some idiot drives in non exit lane to the front and tries to cut in.

Drivers who slow down to a stop to get in the middle turning lane and half their car is still in the driving lane

1. Left lane "guardians of the speed limit" idiots

2. People in a left turn lane that jog right to turn left. Saw a wreck when one idiot bled into the next lane hitting the driver.

3. Entered an intersection turning left meeting another car coming in the opposite direction also turning left. I went past the other driver's door and made the left turn. Some idiot kid behind me ducked in front of the oncoming driver and made a left in effect cutting me off. Dangerous move.

4. Some pedestrian daring me to hit them as they saunter across the street, sometimes chatting on the phone.

Never had legit road rage but people tailgating in their 1997 POS kind of piss me off. Usually just troll them by slowing down on purpose.

This sets me off and that is also my reaction. Especially when somebody is doing it in a ridiculous location like a neighborhood street and I'm already speeding but not enough apparently.

Nothing really sets me over the edge but I can't stand someone sitting in my blind spot.

People ahead of me that aren't paying attention when the red light turns green. Obviously they have nowhere important to be.

Tailgaters! (I flip the rear-view mirror and forget about them lately, though.)

People who refuse to pass to the left on a four-lane road. These people latch on and won't let go.

People who refuse to pass while tailgating on a two-lane road is almost as bad. Had a jackhole flashing his lights at me (I could tell that, even with the flipped rear-view mirror).

All the son of a bitch had to do was get in the opposing lane and pass. The conditions were ideal, and legal.

I will never understand the stupidity of the common man.

These are the same. And why there's so much aggravation.

If someone is tailgating you, and there's no one in front of you....then you're the reason. Move over. Speed up. Pay attention. Let them get the ticket.

If you're tailgating someone who is being slow (that isn't in a line waiting on something like the truck going 71 to pass a truck going 70), give them a chance to get over. After that, pass them. Why waste you time waiting for them?

To add: When the right exit lane off the interstate continues, but people stop as if they have to wait for traffic to merge. Ex: Essen I-10 exits.

I hope to God you just didn't advise that people being tailgated in the right-hand lane or on a two-lane highway "speed up."

People who pass you and then slow down.

People who drive side by side for a mile or more.

People on their cell who lock on to you in order to set their speed. They drive close to you and you can't shake them by speeding up or slowing down.

People who park next to you when the parking lot is nearly empty and there are closer spots available.

There are a bunch of herd animals on the roads.

Adjust your side mirrors out to eliminate the blind spot.
