people who indicate to go one way yet go the opposite!!!!!!!!!

Sorry to say but I'm guilty of that one.... BUT in my own defence, I was driving my friends Beamer for the day when mine was at the crash shop, lucky it was raining that day too, so i didnt look like so much of a d*** when I kept putting the wipers on instead of indicating!

Was your car in the crash shop after you put your indicator on for one direction but went the other????

1. People who don't understand the concept of keeping left unless overtaking despite several signs advising them to do so, you'd think it was keep right unless overtaking on the Expressway at times.

Daylight

2. People who drive 4WDs and never use them for 4WDing

Daylight

3. People who don't indicate
4. People who do a Uey 5metres before an inlet
5. People who flick cigarette butts out of windows
6. People not sure where they are so have to slow down to 20kms/hr while they work it out instead of pulling over
7. Asian drivers
8. Elderly drivers
9. Mother drivers
10. People that can't park
11. People that drive fast around schools in the morning or arvo near school time
12. Cyclists who ride two abreast (yes I know its legal, stiff, common sense morons)
13. Cyclists who take up a lane especially when there's a bike lane off the road (Anzac Hwy leading into West Tce)
14. People who take off at a snail's pace
15. Slow drivers
16. People who brake for no reason
17. Trucks
18. People who change lanes many times unnecessarily, as mentioned previously they usually go backwards in the flow of traffic, morons.
19. People who hold up 5 thousand cars so they can turn right in peak hour when they could go 50 metres up the road turn at a safe inlet and get around to where they are getting 5 minutes quicker.
20. Bloody expressway going the wrong way
21. People who park next to my car when there's millions of parks closer to the shops and I deliberately park away from others so noone will scratch my beautiful car.
22. People who run red lights
23. People who stop at lights 5 minutes before the lights turn red
24. Van drivers


That'll do for now.
I don't have a huge issue with tailgaters as 99% of people I see tailgated actually instigate it by breaking a law of one sort or another first. Shits me that the police try to crack down on tailgaters on the Expressway when all they need to do is book the dickheads who sit in the right hand land when not overtaking. Eliminate the illegal cause morons, not the illegal result.
And no, I don't tailgate, don't get close to cars in front, don't want chips in my paintworks.

Wedgie, this topic was "Your Pet Hates on the Road", not "Your A-Z on whats wrong with driving on the road"

[Banker]

people who overtake in the emergency lane

[smac]

Under the handle on the rear of that truck (second handle from left) does not look pretty at all...

[Sojourner]

1) people that coming up to roadworks (or any other reason why traffic is merging), 95% of people get in line, 5% dart down the side and try and cut in.

I cant say for a standard zip merge lane, yet if there are roadworks, motorists are supposed to merge at the site of the roadworks, not merge 100 meters back up the road.

I have seen several accidents happen at the current roadworks at the site of the Burbridge rd brige project where idiots refuse to allow someone to go in front of them who is in front of them to begin with.

People that tow trailers that don't know how to reverse them, should have to have an extra endorsment on licences to be able to tow one

LOL...I used to work at the airport, and the baggage barrows, that were used to tow freight and bags around, turn in the OPPOSITE way to a trailer. I could back one of these into a shoebox. Put a trailer on my car and hey presto NFI...

[Drop Bear]

They should just stop giving out Drivers Licenses in Supermarkets.
Judging by half the dicks on the road it's FAR too fu**ing easy to get a license!!

[Mic]

People who do not enter in the correct lane when turning right at an intersection and instead cut you off. The closest I've been to crashing was at the end of the expressway (going on it from South Road) with an idiot coming straight in the lane I was in, I had to brake completely to stop him from hitting me. (and who was the clown that got paid to design that intersection, i can't think of a sharper turn off a freeway, it's terrible, there's no way you can do the 70km speed limit safely going around that corner?).

[Strawb]

idiot P plate drivers who drive like they own the road. Most of these are in either hotted up sports cars or Commodores. One nearly ran into me today and he was driving a Lexcen which he vainly attempted to put on holden badges. I know because he parked five cars up from me and you could tell he had rebadges his lexcen.

[MightyEagles]

People who drive while on their mobile.
