Do you lose your cool when driving? (page 3)

What ticks you off on the road?

People who drive slow as molasses in the highway left lane and won't move over to let me pass!

Ignorant drivers who never use blinkers on the highway, but especially in the streets.

SLOW, SLOW drivers.

Manhattan.

Only at night and it's raining and I can't see the road. I hate driving through parking lots. When the light is green and no one is moving through it. When the car breaks down on the interstate.(Never happened yet but I'm sure it would make me lose it. Almost happened last year when the transmission almost quit before I got to my daughters in SC.)

I think you know the answer in my case.......(you know how I drive)

Onetime(in band camp) I was behind some slow driver, and I was late to work(I was a cocktail waitress). So after having to follow her for 10 minutes, we hit a stop light. This gave me enough time to get out of my car, tell her to move her ass, before I hit her with my car. Shocked look on her face meant she got the point.

I scream, curse, and flip everyone off. I have had people run up to me(as I head into my destination) just to call me I bitch. I usually tell them that they have me confused with someone who gives a shit. Or, I simply say "Your point?".

What drives me nuts?:

Drivers who either drive too slowly on ice, too quickly, or are just idiots about it. It's not rocket science people.
Drivers who think their blinker gives them the automatic right to change into your lane and you should just make way.
Drivers who exit the tollway, knowing full well they will have to pay a toll, and then dig through their purse/pocket for change. I feel like throwing change at them, "Take them! Just take the f***ing things!"
Drivers who, while I'm in the fast lane, going 15 miles or more over the speed limit, speed up to my ass and tailgate me when there is a perfectly good lane next to us. Just because you want to drive like an A-hole doesn't mean I have to get out of your way.

I have extreme road rage...I'm sure my blood pressure jumps a good 20 points as soon as I get in the car.

Memphis drivers are terrible and I hate every single one of them.

1. Rubber neckers...HATE YOU HATE YOU HATE YOU HATE YOU!!!!!!!! Trust me retard! If the wreck is bad enough for you to slam on your brakes to look at, you'll see it tonight on the news. SO DRIVE!

2. People who gun it to get in front of you while pulling out of a driveway or parking lot......then slow down till they're at least 20 below the speed limit.

3. People who go 50 miles on the effin' interstate.

4. People who sit there picking there nose, scratching their ass or whatever....AND THE LIGHT HAS BEEN GREEN FOR 15 SECONDS!!!!!

5. People who won't turn left unless they have an arrow. DO YOU SEE THE SIGN MORON??? LEFT TURN YIELD ON GREEN!!! IT MEANS YOU CAN GO!!!!

6. People who don't go right on red.

And my number one driving pet peeve of all time....**drumroll**

7. YOU FREAKING IDIOTS WHO SLOW DOWN WHILE MERGING ONTO THE INTERSTATE!!!!! YOU ARE NOT GOING TO SUCCESFULLY MERGE IF YOU'RE GOING 35 MPH BECAUSE EVERYONE ELSE IS GOING 75-80!!!!! GET THE LEAD OUT AND MOVE YOUR ASS!!!!!!!!!

Yeah, what's wrong with them? Can't they multitask? Most people should be able to steer with one hand and pick their noses with the other.

I like to park far away because I have a new car and hate when people park next to me, and open their doors on my car !!! So I always try to park very far from everyone...

Um, Jh.... unfortunately, this is how people make themselves a target....I've seen teens specifically target vehicles who park way out of the way, and those who park their vehicles on an angle....it sucks!!! We work hard for our cars.....these guys don't give a s#*t.

I hate drivers who are driving at breakneck speed, and suddenly realize they are about to miss their exit, so they cross 4 lanes of traffic, and cut me off to slam on their brakes in the off ramp....that's when I wish I was in my hubby's transport, heh, heh, heh....

I don't really lose my temper, unless someone is acting really crazy and endangering everyone's lives around them. But I have this very good friend who DOES lose her cool while driving.....I thought she would have posted on this thread....

When my husband tells me what a crappy driver I am. And he's the one that sucks at driving.

Impatient people who think they can drive your car with their horn! They are so anxious to get around you they don't care if you're already going over the posted speed limit and when they do pass they have to flip you off and tear off like they are soooo pissed off!

Road rage has gotten so bad I always keep a loaded pistol in my lap just in case I get behind some slowpoke.

OK The only "driving" I do these days is with my wheelchair and on sidewalks or bike paths.

What ticks me off?

People who think the whole sidewalk is just for them. They walk smack in the middle so no one can pass. (I need a louder horn)
People who are walking along, in their own little world weaving back and forth across the sidewalk. I crawl up behind them ready to pass and they weave into my space so I weave to go around them on the other side and they weave right back.
People who stop dead in their tracks. It takes time folks to stop the chair. I know I'm going to run one over one someday.
I try to always stay on the right side of the path - like driving. People coming towards me think that is their lane and get ticked off if they have to move to the other side of the path. Hey, there's a line down the middle for a reason.
People who get annoyed that I have caught up to them and they should move to let me pass. I try not to scare the life out of people by yelling at them but ... sometimes they need to be beeped. Hmmm Maybe I should take that rape whistle with me - that shoul;d move them.
