1 Big Pep Peeve of Mine......

[Savage_383]

I also hate door dings, so I always park like this.

I find a corner spot and park really close to the curb. what's really annoying is when the prick that is inevitably going to park next to me parks like on that line so it didn't even matter than I did that.

You mean...like this???


I have a co-worker that does this. :blankface:

I hate it when...

People go under the speed limit in the fast lane. I don't go too much over the speed limit, but gosh, I'd sure like to be at least at it. I often rage and downshift to pass as soon as I can and speed a lot more than I would if the person would've just gotten over.

 

[Macehammer]

Hmm, I also hate when people use wrong words in common sayings. It's another pet peeve of mine.

Ha ha ha ha.

When you are waiting at a traffic light and the car ahead of you inches forward a bit, stops, inches forward a bit more, and a bit more again.

It looks like he/she is way too impatient to wait for the light to turn green! Must be in a real hurry and he's gonna just scream down the street as soon as this light turns green. He's totally anticipating when the light will change based on the color of the light to the perpendicular traffic.

annnnnd, when the light is finally green he/she takes off like a snail.

Are you sure your not form CO? I see this at EVERY light I stop at--seriously.
Then people look at me weird cause I just stay put. or better yet, the guy behind gets mad cause he is inching forward and I am not.

Well if its a small intersection and theres a lot of cars in line and blocking another intersection and you're not inching forward to me thats a dick move. Inch forward some to help the drivers behind you..

Thats not the case here.

 

[Swordsmith]

The dick move is to roll back a little. He rolls forward, you roll back again. This solves nothing and could get you shot in the head in some neighborhoods, so don't do it. But sitting pat won't be enough provocation to escalate things.

I am glad I am not the only one that sees this as a problem. In my area, there is a highway that I have to take daily and people are constantly in the left lane doing one of the following:

Going 10 under the limit.

Going EXACTLY the same speed as the person in the right lane for miles at a time.

Speeding up as soon as I try passing them in the right lane. If they let me pass, they immediately speed up and pace me for the rest of my drive. If it is nighttime, I get to deal with their headlights in my mirror.

9 out of 10 times these people are on their phone talking or texting and probably have no clue of what speed they are going.

KEEP RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS.

I don't know about you, but I stop where I plan to stop and I stay there so no reason to inch forward nonstop like an impatient retard.

Now of course if 5 cars in front of me end up inching up all of like 10 or 15 feet (happens a lot) and a guy needs to get out from a side street I'll move to accommodate him whether forward or back assuming I have room behind me. I do agree in that if you see someone that wants out and you can let them out but don't, thats pretty ****ty.


As has been said before there would be far less of this if we had more people who actually DRIVE their cars instead of simply aiming them while pressing on the accelerator pedal (automatic people). IMO this is the same mentality that causes traffic on highways to constantly go from 75 to 0 to 75 to 0 to 75 to 0 because somehow this feels like you're getting somewhere faster then simply maintaining a much slower speed.

It happens when I am the first at a light. I stop right where I am supposed to right in front of painted line. a guy comes up behind and stops. Then keeps inching forward until they are literally on my ass. One time I actually got out of my car and went back there saying "what the hell!" the guy had 1 inch left until he hit me. I don't think he even realized he was inching forward. If I didn't get out, i'm sure he would have love tapped me.

I think it is just a bad habit here in CO. Kids see their parents do it, and don't realize they they do it when they start driving, or cause everyone else is doing doing it so they unconsciencely follow, IMO anyway. While yes I have seen people do it else where, but nothing like how I see it daily here.

A good thread to vent though! hehe
