Driving Pet Peeves – Stupid Motorists
Hubby and I do a lot of traveling and most of the time that is via car. We just love taking road trips but at time…we have come across some pretty scary drivers & road rage incidents!
As you all know…we were just on vacation. We saw plenty idiots who were driving cars (who shouldn’t be) while we were on vacation. Here is some of the stupid things that we saw.
1. A twenty-something young gal sitting at the red light trying to put her nose ring in while the light had turned green!
2. A young couple switching drivers at a busy red light intersection! She hopped out of the driver’s seat, ran around the back of the car as the gentleman did the same. Errr…so dangerous & the drivers behind them were NOT happy about them holding up this busy intersection.
3. Texting and cellphone usage while driving or sitting at red lights. OMG, I can NOT tell you how many times we saw this going on during our 10 day vacation. Seriously people…STOP IT!!!
4. A Trucker sitting at a public restroom got out of his truck, stood beside his door and popped out a urinal bottle to urinate in! WTH? There are plenty of public bathrooms at this rest stop that he could of used. That totally irritated me!
5. At least 7 times during our vacation we saw stupid motorists making u-turns at intersections that CLEARLY had “no u-turns” signs posted. Sigh…people are just way too lazy to drive down another block, make a turn and come back up around!
6. While you are jamming out and enjoying your music tunes…everyone who is 4+ cars behind you doesn’t need to hear them! That’s right people, it is okay to listen to music when you drive, but if I can hear your crappy music 200 yards behind you, it is too loud! Be respectful and turn it down!
7. Children should always be in some type of car seat or at the very least (depending on age) in a seat belt. We were in the car sitting in the parking lot at Walgreens and two gals pull up. The gal in the passenger seat was holding a 1 year old on her lap. OMG, that totally irked me off!
8. Lane Switchers are one of my biggest Pet Peeves! We were on the busy Philly Expressway which is a nightmare to drive. If you have ever been on it, you already know what I mean! I am sick and tired of people crossing over 4 lanes in 3 seconds! Then…a mile later they are going back over another 4 lanes in 3 seconds! That type of crap causes accidents! When it is bumper to bumper on an 8 lane expressway…get in a lane and freaking stay there!
9. The trunk of my car is for carrying my luggage it is NOT for wearing your damn bumper! Quit the tailgating people! You are NOT going to get there any faster by riding my ass. Matter of fact, you will irk me and I will slow down to a freaking crawl.
10. Intersections are NOT for putting on make-up, digging at your nose, putting on jewelry, hand lotion, making phone calls or other nonsense! Keep your eyes on the road please and do your garbage at home before you leave.
Do you have any pet peeves regarding bad drivers? I would like to hear about them!
