It's probably been said already, but people who leave their high beams on, drive me insane. Especially when you've been on a dark road for a while. That glare from those lights are brutal!
Oh! And I HATE it when you're waiting in traffic and then you get some jack %$#'s that use the shoulder lane to drive by everyone else waiting in their proper lanes!
Those who do not use turn signals.
Those that enter from a cross-street causing me to slow down to avoid accident when there is a huge, safer gap behind me.
Those who do not use headlights when raining, foggy, low visibilty. I know it won't help you see, nimrod, but it sure as heck will help me see you!
- Not using signals
- Following too closely
- Following for long distances without passing, then suddenly get a wild hair to go storming by
- Erratic speed, up/down, up/down when they're in front of me
- Hanging out in the left lane
- Using a phone while driving
- Sudden lane changes
- Slowing down for green lights

Bandon,
I believe you just should yield to oncoming traffic and don't expect people to be nice just because YOU are waiting.
Of course I yield to the oncoming traffic.
But I also try to be cognizant of other drivers. If I see a line of cars waiting to turn left and know they have no arrow, I try to hustle through the intersection. You have no idea how people drive around these parts. It's a common complaint in our area that people take 20 minutes to get up to the breakneck speed of 35.
Also, I wasn't just thinking of ME, thankyouverymuch. I was thinking of the long line of cars behind me who ALSO want to make it through the light.

I leave my reflector shades behind my back seat and visible outside the back window. Helps reduce the effects of someone with high beams behind (not to mention reflecting a fair amount of it back)!

Cool
You reminded me of a question. I've always been under the impression that turning your rearview mirror directly at the car behind you will reflect their high beams back at them. Is this true ?
