This is one of the ones I hate.

When people are flashing their lights and honking as they are riding in the passing lane thinking everyone has to get out of their way because they are honking and flashing their lights. It's a passing lane, not a go-fast lane.

i don't get riled up about people being in the left lane and not getting over right away. people get distracted, you forget where you are, it happens. but when you clearly have someone behind you who is trying to get past....MOVE THE **** OVER! if you're not passing someone get out of the lane

Exactly, especially if the left lane lurker is pacing slower moving traffic, causing a traffic jam, like I mentioned. I see it all the time, especially on I-94 through Detroit.

Re: Don't be a [male sexual organ]...

I agree with pretty much most of the opinions here. My personal pet peeve is when I am driving on the highway and a state owned vehicle blows by me doing 90mph, or driving erratically. While these vehicles do not have a "How's my driving?" sign, they do have license plates and individual vehicle numbers on the door. I write down both numbers and report them. As far as i am concerned that is my car they are driving, and they better be driving it like I would.

My personal pet peeve is when the Direct TV guy is late!!!:D

Re: Don't be a [male sexual organ]...

It's really hard to imagine one of those guys being in a hurry, when your appointments are "between 8 and 12 and
between 12 and 4" and you get there are 5:30pm and waste someone else's entire day.

I disagree. I hate a D()ck as much as the next person, but if you are blocking the fast lane,
you should get the hell out of it, whether the person is going too fast for your taste or not.
When people adopt the position you have advocated, THIS is when you get these punk dumases
weaving in and out of 3-5 lanes of traffic at 90 talking on the cell phone, barely clearing car's bumpers.
The fact that they are jack-asses does not mean you should be one, too, and block them.
EVERYBODY can't be an a55hole. Leave that to the pros.

Re: Don't be a [male sexual organ]...

I can't stand when people ride on your a$$...it just makes me want to slam on my brakes. :D

I-93 in the Boston area is a nightmare because during rush hour you're allowed to use the breakdown lane as a regular lane of traffic. The majority of the people stay out of the lane, but you have these idiots that pull into the breakdown lane and try to fly ahead of the traffc, but then they go barreling into the people that are trying to merge onto the highway. :td

I hope the guy that came up with that idea lost his job...:r

I've been noticing that with higher gas prices now, there have been a a lot of times where people seem to be running some sort of rolling road block on the freeways. 70 MPH limit, and all three lanes are occupied by people doing only 50 to 55, with a huge gap of about a quarter mile in front of them. And they like to try to keep people from passing, too. If a gap forms, they speed up to close it off. Then you have a traffic jam forming behind this, with people jockeying around trying to get around it, or trying to get to the right to exit.

These people I call "Traffic Anchors". I can't stand them. I only call them that to give them the benefit of the doubt. What doubt? Well I have to assume they are oblivious to the fact they are dragging down the flow of traffic. I'm pretty sure this is a citable offense known as impeding traffic. If I did not assume they were oblivious, I would have to think worse; that they were the interstate "nanny" protecting me from going as fast as I want. Newsflash for that guy, going 5 mph over, or impeding is just as illegal as going 10 mph over. One might carry a higher fine, but both are still technically illegal. So, get over yourself. :2

That is what the left lane is for.

QFT. This is a fact. Too bad LEO do not enforce this more rigidly. Then people wouldn't have to pass on the right. My pet peeve is that everyone wants to drive 5 mph under the limit in the passing lane, the 10-15 mph under are in the middle, and NOBODY is in the right lane. As far as I know it is not illegal to pass on the right in Michigan, so this situation prompts me to do just that.

8-12? DTV told me to be home between January and March. :tu

Especially considering the incident in my OP occurred just a few minutes after 7 am.

Don't get me started on people driving in the snow!:r

Re: Don't be a [male sexual organ]...

I'm pretty forgiving until someone cuts me off to the point I've got to take evasive action to avoid hitting them. I just hope karma catches up with them.

I would've done the same thing Jeff:tu Of course, on the other hand, I've always wanted a couple of 50's mounted on the Ford Focus to smoke a vehicle off the road too:D

I've always wanted the car from the old Spyhunter arcade game. :)
