Most Annoying Driving Behaivors

[ChriswUfGator]

At least they got the big one! These silly left-lane vigilantes who won't let anyone pass are just the worst.

Glad they are finally doing something about it.

The worst variety is the one who decides to form a rolling roadblock and deliberately travels the same speed as the driver in the right lane.

Oh yeah, I hate them. I have a strategy for getting around them, you should try it. When one of them is "Rainfrogging" as we'll call it in honor of another poster here who defended that behavior befofe deleting all her embarassing posts, I will let off the throttle and drop way back and "act nice". Eventually they forget about you, and once that happens a gap will open up between their car and the one next to them since it takes a shitload of attention to keep your car exactly next to the one beside it at 60 or 70mph (which is one way you know it's intentional), and when they stop paying attention they slip up and the gap opens. Then, just floor it and scoot through.

Some of them are wise to this trick, but usually it works like a charm. I have a convertible, and so whenever I do this it's funny with the top down because as soon as they realize they screwed up and you're about to get through, you can hear their engine revving and downshifting as they floor it trying to close you out again. But by then, it's too late!

That's one down.

Now if they'll start ticketing people who drive with their flashers on while it's raining.  I guess it's time to send more letters. 

Where did that even come from??  Never saw that until I moved to Florida...

I don't know where it started, but I've seen it all up and down the 95 corridor.  I've driven through some awful weather in Alabama and Louisiana on I-10, and I didn't really notice it.  Maybe it's just an east coast annoyance.

And while they are at it, they should go hardcore on those people who drive around at night with one headlamp burned out.

Or even worse, the morons that drive with NO LIGHTS ON... don't tell me you haven't seen them.

The worst in Jacksonville are the idiots who stay in the right lane going 40mph  on I95 southbound over the southbank.   Then they get to the exit only onto Atlantic and get a crazy trying to merge over.  Like they didn't see the 4 exit only signs for that lane over the last mile!!!! Drives me nuts.

How about the ones who NEVER use their blinker, almost get over right on top of you, and then continue changing lanes!!

People who do not realize that the on-ramp is for speeding up, not for entering the highway at 45 mph.  They are only trumped by people who refuse to turn out into traffic because they want to cross four lanes of traffic. They wait for an hour an a half instead of pulling out and simply u-turning a block down the road.

The ones that really piss me off are the ones who come to a complete halt at the yield sign when merging onto the Arlington Expressway.  They are total idiots and jackwagons.

I was driving home crossing the Fuller Warren at the 95/10 split and there was a knucklehead (really worse but Timken has such Ginger ears, so I'll refrain) on his cell phone wanting to get over. So I blocked him, I signed him to get off his phone and I would let him over. So he proceeds to speed up, logical and what I would have done, then I pass him because he was going very slow at this time, and we stare each other down, like in the westerns. He proceeds to follow me, get on my bumper and as I turn off, he stares me down as well.

If you are driving on the roads, DRIVE, turn off your phone. Nothing is more important when driving than controlling a 6,000 pound vehicle. I do not understand why people take this for granted.

This is good and fits well in this thread...

I'm I the only when that instantly pulls up on a left turn intersection, and go on the red or yellow when the opposing cars stop (first car in the turning lane)? Who cares if there's a seemingly endless line of cars coming from the other direction, when they stop on red, turn left, simple! It literally drives me CRAZY when I'm that second car behind Mrs. Tentative Gertrude over here WHO WILL NOT PULL UP & TURN AT ALL ON A YELLOW, EVEN WHEN THERE'S NO TRAFFIC COMING FROM THE OTHER DIRECTION!!! Most people annoyingly play that "Wait until no traffic is coming from the other direction, then you pull up and turn" game; You're gonna have to make that left turn anyway, so why wait to pull up? There's no pedestrian issues at all with situations like that, I dunno why people wait to pull up. There's probably no more that like 8 percent of people who pull up instantly (atleast in Jax) while others are apparently tentative drivers. All that 'waiting to pull up' crap does is waste time, SMH...
