Further to big Asa's screaming and racial stereotyping and Roths little game 'old or Asian' . YOU ARE BAD BOYS!

Here are things that annoy me. firstly I must admit to a similar game to Roth's when someone is going slow. Mine is called ' old man wearing hat or woman' woman! I know! But I'm also generally correct.

Other things I hate and get impatient with

1. Cars in right hand filter lanes( where you only get a short green light) who leave a big gap to the car in front.

2. Slow cars in the middle lane of the motorway.

3. Caravans

4. People on sharp blind bends who can't keep on their own side.

5. BMW drivers

6.people who pull out in front of you then hold you up.

I'm sure there's more, but that's for starters. What yours?

1) people that discriminate against other drivers purely for the car they drive.

[racechick]

I knew you'd be after me one way or another with this thread.
It's years of experience of the behaviour of drivers in particular cars. It's uncanny but it's always BMW's

Oh that reminds me of another pet hate, and this one is a classic by the BMW driver

Coming up the outside lane when it's clear the traffic is queuing in the inside lane, then barging in!

[LRW]

Yeah, Ive seen plenty of s*** drivers do that. But because you have it in your head its BMW drivers, you only remember BMW drivers.

I personally think women are s*** drivers, too busy doing their makeup or thinking of the next holiday they are going on.

Was in sexual discrimination you lambasted me for the other day LRW?

Incidentally, what car do you drive?

Ford.

[What's Burning?]

Idiotic political bumper stickers.

I would reply to this, but the list would be far too long.

Something that always used to annoy me was 'baby on board' signs (not sure if you get them outside of UK).

I used to think - just because you've got a stupid sign in your car, doesn't mean I'm going to drive any better / more careful around you.....

Then my wife told me that they are actually meant to be there incase there is a big accident, and that emergency services etc can see there are children / babies, in the car and they should be checked on as a priority. Which kind of makes sense, and so now I dont mind so much.

Although, apparently the problem is people have kids, put the sign in the car, and leave it in there whether they are driving with the kids on the car or not - which makes them useless.

People who indicate only once they're actually in the filter lane.

People who do the blip indicate. "I know I'm already half in your lane and there's sweet FA you can do about it, but here's one dink of my indicator to show my caring nature."

People who drive way below the speed limit because they may be making a turn in the next, i don't know, eight years.

People who on a busy three lane road travel in the left hand lane for as long as possible then, at the last minute, veer wildly across all the lanes to get in a right hand filter.

People who think the gap I've left between me and car infront is just a little bit of air I'm protecting till they arrive.

*As an adendum to racechicks first excellent gripe about gaps in filter lanes - I assume they're being 'safe' without realising that they're actually backing traffic up so cars that would otherwise be safely in the filter lane are now stationary on a busy highway. Morons.


And the thing that pisses me off most is I know exactly what these people are going to do before they even do it, and it still pisses me off.

[What's Burning?]

People that drive like they're looking for an address ALL THE TIME!

[racechick]

Those are all GREAT ones!!

[Roth]

I also dislike driving with my father-in-law.

He hates right turns, so will try to eradicate them completely, and doesn't come back the same route he went. We once spent 45 minutes driving up and down a mountain to a town five minutes away.

And if its humanly possible to shoehorn a motorway experience in there, he will.

5. BMW drivers

I'm sorry but I drive one which is from the dark ages and I still feel like I have some sort of God given right to be an a$$hole on the road. I've driven the E92 (dad's company car) a few times and it just feels like everyone else are 2nd class and should just....get the f*** out of the way. You can't blame the driver, it's 'dat feel' in the car which changes a nice guy's personality.

What annoys me is the highways...where d!ckheads keep on the fast lane and think they don't need to move out of the way just because they're driving at the speed limit. It's not too hard to just move the steering 5 degrees for 2 seconds to let someone else go past, it's a free world.

[Frontrunner]

In my late teens, early 20s driving a crappy car, I always get other drivers cutting in front of me and all sorts, but now that I drive a better car you do notice you don't get as much people cutting me off as much. So if you drive a piece of crap you get treated like a piece of crap. Well thats what i've notice anyway.

Also I remember being my teens cursing whenever I got stuck behind a truck or semi-trailer, Now that I got my license to drive a Semi, now i'm the person that will be annoying car drivers
