Not that I drive around raging along to "Bad Habit" by Offspring or anything, but there are some things that I encounter while driving that are really aggravating. I'm sure each of us has a driving pet peeve besides the usual complaint against rubber-necking and tailgating. Feel free to vent a little bit and leave your own driving pet peeve in the comments.
- Why do people leave their blinkers on for miles and miles? How can you not see the little arrow flashing or hear it?
- Get the stuffed animals out of your back window. And while you're at it, take the lei, tassel, Mardi Gras beads, and any other object off of your rear-view mirror.
- Stop circling up and down the same rows of parking spots or being a parking space stalker (slowly following behind people who are leaving so you can take their parking spot). Quit being lazy, park, and walk a little.
- Does anyone else laugh a little bit inside when you hear some kid floor it and his car sounds ten times louder than a lawn mower? Dude, you don't sound cool, you sound like you are about to explode.
- While your garage door is opening, you are able to pull into your driveway to wait for it. Get out of the street so that I don't also have to sit there and wait. I have several neighbors that do this, and I just don't get it.
Oh, yeah... It's hot in summer... so why don't you turn on the a/c in your car... oh wait! having a smoke? Now open the window, and blow smoke out the window, cool the 40C street, and waste gasoline, too!
Real smart.
