Driving peeves

[Stretch1out]

Grrrr for people who are turning left and there is a turning lane to use and they just sit there .

[AHSPanther23]

People who do not understand what "Cruise Control" is. Just go a consistent speed!!

#1 - Fools who get in the left lane on the interstate and then never get out of it while barely doing the speed limit. Then the same fools will intentionally speed up to keep you from passing them on the right.

#2 - People who put their turn signals on and then just come on over without looking where there really wasn't space for them.

#3 - People who drive up on your bumper or try to go around you you when you have put your turn signal on (with ample time) in order to back into a driveway or parallel park.

Two words....."Ohio drivers", drops mic.

 

I work in Ohio as all I ever hear is "Kentucky drivers". Followed by a rolling of the eyes...

 

Yup, lots of terrible drivers in both states.

Yeah, but my Ohio coworkers always manage to get the word "hillbilly" in when complaining about Kentucky drivers. Drives me nuts!

When someone fails to merge into the left turn lane until they are all the way to the light. They then try to sneak in and cut someone off so they can turn. Makes me want to follow them till they park and deflate all four of their tires. We all have to be somewhere. Merge early and wait your turn.

Truckers on the 4-lanes who decide going uphill is the right time to pass.

While I loathe car racing, that would be the time to point out that all the best drivers come from hillbilly states. None come from Ohio, as far as I've ever heard. If so, they're the best of a really bad lot.

This happens every day going up the cut in the hill in Northern Ky.:irked:

I have almost 3,000,000 logged miles driving. I've either seen, or done every stupid thing possible while driving. I learned long, long ago. Letting stupid drivers get under your skin makes for long trips. I tend to just smile, or laugh at times, at all the stupid things people do.

I was at a 4-way stop this past Friday and a woman in a van, on the phone, pulls into the intersection behind another and completely blocks it. Nobody could turn left into the street where I was sitting and I could not proceed straight. She caused a hell of a jam up and all the time we watched her screaming at someone on her phone, totally oblivious to what she had just done.

[OlDog75]

And for all the yeah-hoos who want to drive 20+mph over the speed limit, don't ride my butt in heavy traffic, use your brain. I can only go as fast as the driver in front of me if I can't get around him.

Hard to laugh it off when you're almost put into a median wall or darn near sideswiped by someone not looking to see if lane is clear. Sometimes ya just gotta vent. But, you're probably right to try to not let it get under your skin.

Almost got clipped by a lady turning left yesterday. She didn't see me because her dog was on her lap looking out of the side window!

[lawildcat]

If I have to pass one more car in the emergency lane on 275 because you guys are going too slow in the passing lane I may lose my mind.

 

You actually do that?! Sheesh! Never a cop around when you need one.
