The amount of people driving that shouldn't be allowed to.

Taz that is one of mine too.

People over a certain age who drive and really shouldn't (I believe from 65+ you should have to sit your driving test again)
Rude/arrogant people - we're all the same on the inside!
People who cross the road when my light is green - I WILL run you over!
Children

Funny, never drive in Louisiana then. strange as it may sound everyone knows everyone's intentions and nobody uses blinkers here (even the police don't) And it seems to just work. But you can always point out the "out of towners" as they will beat their steering wheels while screaming obscenities.

Mine are also driving-related.

People who drive too slow.
People who don't indicate.
People who drive slow and when you try and overtake them, they speed up.
People who cross the road and don't care that you have to slam the brakes to stop from hitting them.
But worst of all...People who think they own the road and just do whatever they want in front of you!!!

When your driving and and someone pulls out infront of you from the next lane or from a side street and totally cuts you of with total disregard. Oh and people who use no turn signals on round abouts. If I know there turning but have no turn signal on, I just go anyway and go slow as heck. That gets them going.

I am in the UK totally different

Same here in Holland. I hate that, what's so hard about turning that indicator on. It's the worst when people are on a roundabout. Let other people see where you are going for * sake! :evil:

Because I know it's all a front and he's not so bad really! :P

OK as a pedestrian I will say drivers who don't know that a zebra crossing gives the person crossing RIGHT OF WAY! You HAVE to stop, you're not being courteous by doing so!

Oh my god! Yes! Thank you.

Here's a suggestion for you drivers in distress, but take caution that you follow the laws whatever they are. Works best if you have a passenger.
first test on your car the next time you wash it to get proper consistency.
#1. Buy a water gun
#2. Mix water and liquid dish soap (more liquid then water)
#3. Once mixed test on your windshield and see if your wipers smear it or if it comes right off, if it comes off use more liquid dish soap.
Next time someone cuts you off make your way around them, once in front stick your water gun out of window just enough to spray out of the window, give them a few sprays and watch them pull over since they can't get it off, and the more water they try to use it will only make bubbles pretty funny and works like a champ.

As a driver I was expecting you to disagree with me!

No, that annoys me too. Pedestrians just walk across the street whenever they want but when they come to a crossing, they just sit there, scared.

Rome is the best for pedestrians! You just cross wherever and whenever and the cars just know to stop

Not much, frankly. About the only thing that really gets to me is our fundamental lack of respect for the English language. I'm not sure whether it's laziness or lack of education or indifference, but it does concern me and I feel we could try to be more cognizant of our blatant disregard for spelling, grammar, and punctuation!

The ones that really kill me are "you're" vs "your" and "their" vs "there" vs "they're." :P A quick reminder:

RMVancleav710

parents who let there children run around the store and tear everything up and not pick it up...
parents who pick there kids up in there pajamas during the day...
women who have like 10 kids from 5 different babys daddys....
having to use the word baby daddy..."shudders"
bad spelling...
10 to 12 year olds who have boyfriends...
having to do math all the time...I feel like an accountant doing the dang budget...but id make the govnt happy, I really know how to move numbers around to make it work to my advantage....

theres more...but cant think of any atm

Edit: my friends, people who lie, people who see I'm doing a word search at the bar and asks..."are you smart?" how does doing a word search make you smart? :shock:

Apparently some people got killed in the one at Abbey Road recently. They were doing a photo and the camera which is there caught it happening. Horrible. (Yes, been there, done that.)

It really grinds my gears when someone cuts me or others while we wait in line. It's rude and unfair to everyone. Please wait like everyone else. And don't you dare put your hands on me when I call you out or throw a hissy! :evil:

mr_skeltal_80

Women that start gossiping and chatting with each other in the middle of the street/road/alley/supermarket isle/any other place where i need to pass them. Usually with a lot of stuf ( babytrolleys/shopping-carts/bicycles/ Thereby blocking your way.
