Getting stuck behind people merging onto a 60 mph highway who only do 25-30 mph. WTF?

This made me think of another. People who go slower when the speed limit is higher (ex doing 40 in a 45) but go faster when the speed limit is lower (ex doing 35 in a 25). I would think speeding when the speed limit is lower is more likely to get the attention of the boys in blue.

(1) 30% of drivers on the road
(2) The next 30% of drivers on the road
(3) The next 30% of drivers on the road

Everyone seems to be in their own little world, totally oblivious to those around them, and any courtesy to others is now a thing of the past. (yes , there are a few noticeable exceptions).

I have lost count of the number of times I have had to swerve almost off the road to avoid some idiot, coming in the opposite direction, almost totally over the center line on my side, as they play with their Cell phone or radio, or themselves !!! True Jerkoffs !!

1. Drivers who are lost and refuse to pull over to figure it out, causes them to be below the speed limit and switch lanes unpredictably.
2. People who block the straight lane to turn left because they couldn't get into the turn lane in time somehow.
3. The people who stay behind a cop car even when the cop is going a couple miles under the speed limit.
4. Not really driving so I didn't put it in the list but it's right with these is people who let others out in front of restaurants, malls, etc and block the whole damn lane to go through.

I agree with all of the above complaints...my biggest one is the signaling though - just let the people around you know you're about to do something that "might" affect them. and of course- it ALWAYS rains the day I clean up my car. this weekend - no exception. here is my baby after a wash on Saturday.

I couldn't stop with three, but they've all been mentioned except..
1. People who purposely run red lights
2.People texting while driving. I actually saw this idiot TRYING to steer with his knees while texting riding next to me !
3.When someone pulls out in front of me and goes 5 miles an hour,especially if there's no one anywhere behind me.

Holy ****, that reminds me. When I'm on the thruway, the one moron who sees a cop in front of me slams on their brakes when they're not even speeding

How about the guy that tailgates you for a while and then finally passes, gets in front of you and then goes well under the speed limit.

Don't forget about the people who you honk at because they were being oblivious idiots, but then give you a look (or the finger) because you know......jerks. How dare we honk at them.

Since I live in the metro area (Baltimore) with the nation's worst drivers, I could write a book. Just this morning I was leaving my house and driving out of my neighborhood. These residential roads are marked 25 mph for a reason and I don't speed there.

Some idiot in an Altima SE-R came barreling down from behind and started riding my tail. He floored it, passed me on the right (single lane road, no shoulder) and almost ran up the curb. The funny part? About 100 feet ahead was a red stoplight with cars waiting. He had to slam his brakes on to stop in time and he made himself look like an absolute moron.

Also those who treat yield signs as stop signs.

Brake tappers, especially those going 10↑ speed limit on the right lane riding others tail.

Inconsiderate and disrespectful drivers in general

Just to be fair, despite cursing them bad drivers I found me missing driving around MAssholes each time I’m out of state.

AMAZING -- I though I would get a lot of Hate from saying that so many drivers were Jerkoffs, but it seems that many agree with me.

What I didn't mention was that it is very very seldom a Civic driver that are in that 90%, but probably just about EVERY ALTIMA driver is ... Go figure !!!

Note: It is not just that other Civic drives see me in a Civic and maybe have more respect to a fellow Civic driver -- I mainly drive the 87 Nissan Maxima, -- and for as big as it it, sometimes you would think it was INVISIBLE !!

OMG GTMAN -- I live and drive in the Baltimore Area as well, and yes, 100% agree, those ALTIMA drivers are the worst !!
