I don't know if I posted this before, but I'm seeing more of this lately. I'll be waiting (I pulled out into the intersection) to turn left. Cars coming from the opposite direction are going by just fine. Then someone who is going to turn right stops as if waiting for me to turn first. I'm sitting there waiting for them to go so I can, but because they stopped, another group of cars behind them shows up and I miss my chance to turn. Then they go ahead and turn. I eventually get to turn on yellow, but I don't understand why they didn't just go and then I can turn too. They have the right of way. What in the heck is making them stop to wait for someone turning left?
those who signal one way, then turn the other way that they indicated
those who drive alternately too slow then suddenly speed up on local roads, then slow down then they finally signal into a shopping center at the most agonizingly slow speed that it makes you stop and you lose the green light
the worst offenders and those who deserve a rolling down of the drivers window with the middle finger displayed to them:
you are doing nothing but obeying the speed limit and a rude driver gets too close behind you, honks, then goes in front of you, when they should have been using the second or third lanes which are for higher speeds
drivers who at the last minute on a busy highway suddenly take an exit at the very end of the deceleration lane, not at the beginning
Tailgaters. I veiw tailgating as akin to someone swinging a bat at my head. However I stopped responding as if they are swinging a bat at my head. I just slow down if someone tailgates. If they pull closer, I slow more. Sometimes I just stop. They usually seem to get the message.
People who are quick to bolt out into traffic while exiting a driveway or parking lot and cut you off, then slow down and drive like a snail in front of you.

That's exactly what I do. If I can get over, I do and let them pass me. But if we're on a crowded road and I can't go any faster than the car in front of me, and they still tailgate, I just slow down until they back off. It usually works and keeps me from being so stressed.
People who don't know that they have a rear fog light that is on
People who cruise up to the next traffic light when it is green and speed up when it turns yellow (they make it you don't)
People who speed up to a stop sign (and you thinking your going to hit him)
People who don't actually turn around and look to the next lane before switching lanes
People who don't know their blinker is still on (which I don't understand since all blinkers are audible and visible from the dashboard)
And the left lane hogs (especially the ones who sit side by side the next car) that cause a huge backup behind them (which cause people to weave in and out of traffic to get in front)

Just wondering what a rear fog light is for? Do they use it to drive backwards? LOL Honestly I have never seen one before.
I don't normally look at my dash that often and I keep the lights dim. Also don't ever hear it because the radio is blasting. LOL
