What "grinds your gears"?

[HKPRO5]

What are things that really get under your skin?

For me,

-People that drive slow in the passing lane.
-The sales people at the kiosk in the mall that force you to look at what they are selling.
-City and Union workers, cuz they are soooooo lazy. Especially here in Hawaii.

dumbass and fucktards... oh yeah flor-idiots!

Nothing really grinds my gears, but I have a laundry list of things that chaps my ass.

 

[genericuser]

usually I grind my gears when I miss a shift.

when people don't signal

 

[The ManLaw]

-when people sit at a stop sign when its red trying to turn right but dont even though you CAN turn on red.

-huge rims on bad vehicles when you know for sure they are on welfare

-people who justify their actions because they "have no other options" (sorry thats the criminal justice degree speaking lol)

A few for me:

People who don't use their turn signals.
People who don't understand basic rules of the road (do not change lanes over a solid white line, know how to merge from two lanes to one on an entrance ramp, etc.).
People who litter and flick cigarettes out of their car windows.

similar one for me is when people don't follow the rules of the road to try to be more courteous to others. they think they're being nice but really to everyone else on the road they're just being unpredictable and can cause more issues than they solve

i forgot to add,

PEOPLE WHO CANT EFFING MERGE. i've been in traffic on long island and i have to say it is better than traffic on the DC beltway and surrounding highways.

Stupid people.

The flicking of cigarettes is a big thing for me. I've had people flick them out of the car next to me, and thankfully my window was up or i would have gotten it in my car.

also, people who tailgate, even when you are doing 5mph over the speed limit.

2 lane road, or 4+? Because people who don't understand that the left lane is a passing lane, and just sit there going 5mph over the speed limit grinds my F'ing gears!

 

[ucMP3]

I need to carry a video camera around in my car to catch the stupid s*** people do here on the roads in Atlanta.... It actually makes me miss driving in DC Metro/Northern Va..

It just amazes me how people can get driving licenses when they obviously have zero understanding of typical routine rules and laws of driving.

there is a passing lane usually when it happens to me. i'll move over to the passing lane and they will pass me in the slow lane. I just facepalm and move on.

So, they refuse to use the open lane next to you? Can't say I've ever experienced that... Or you're just going 5mph over in the left lane and they are riding your ass?

When i get tailgated i'm usually in the slow lane ( i don't usually ride the passing lane for too long ) ill move to the passing lane to get them off my butt and they will pass me on the right. It happens all the time in my area.

new york drivers tailgaiting and not following the rules of the road? no way!

Stop signs are always red. Stop light perhaps? You still have to stop at a stop light when you're turning right before turning. And in most cities it's illegal to turn right on red, even if a sign isn't marked. Found that one out the hard way...
