What is your pet peeve when you're driving?

Mine is tailgaters, I hate it when someone is close behind, riding my bumper. I don't have no bumper stickers, darn it! There's nothing to read back there, so back off!

I don’t like tailgating either also when someone moves in your lane and slows down especially if you’re in one of the fast lanes

My biggest problem is people running 20mph faster than even the cars in the passing lane, weaving back and forth between 3 or 4 lanes to pass everyone. Our normal speed in the center lane is usually 5-10 mph above the limit, and 10-15 above in the left lane. Apparently that's not fast enough for some fools.

Slower drivers in the fast lane.

Between those that don't use the blinker and those that leave their foot on the break almost all the way through a turn, it's a toss up.

Drivers “camping” in the left (passing) lane. And those that pull out to pass, but only at a speed which barely exceeds those they wish to pass. Those cause unsafe conditions!

A few years ago, they changed our laws to allow passing on the right, for just that reason.

I am all of the above .no just kidding .besides you don’t know why some people drive the way they do. Could be an emergency . Maybe got to go to the bathroom . But mainly mainiacs. Or if they are going too slow they are morons (George Carlin)

Those people driving 15 mph below the speed limit with a line of vehicles a mile long behind them and they won’t pull over and let anyone by. They speed up on the straight stretches so nobody can pass then slow way down again in the curves🤨

I pull a camping trailer and my pet peeve is the person that pull in front close then slows or has to stop while I’m standing on the brakes!!! Fifth wheel weights 17,500 loaded out..Also have dash cam!!!

Long ago my Steve hooked up the backup lights on our 51 Chevy with a separate circuit and switch. If tapping the brakes didn't back off tailgaters the backup lights did.
