And the No. 1 thing that drives motorists mad ...

Getting screwed at the Drive Thru...

[brytlea]

I agree, but I have recently started seeing guys shaving and stuff while they drive. Must be metrosexuals.

More nonsense to get us ready for a cell phone ban. Don't buy into it.

I was almost run off the road by some dingbat talking on a cell phone. She was completely oblivious at how close she came to killing both of us and just drove on her merry way.

[TrebleRebel]

I hate it when the guy in front is driving too close to me.

[Skooz]

Imbeciles who refuse to obey traffic laws -- all of them -- annoy me to no end.

If you cannot follow the rules of the road, walk or take the bus.

[Hegemony Cricket]

Weirdest thing I ever saw - a guy on a highway entrance ramp, apparently steering with his knee, because he was using both hands to play a harmonica. He was alone in the car. LOL

[avg_freeper]

My biggest beef are those people who come to a stop at a green light and let others in cross traffic in front of them (and the 1,000 cars behind them).

[mhking]

To be certain, this is never an issue for those of us of the female persuasion.

Bull. If I see another woman putting makeup on while sailing by me on the freeway, I'm going to ram her...

9. Ah, men. Running a little late for work, they often can be seen grooming and shaving while driving. To be certain, this is never an issue for those of us of the female persuasion. Heads up, gentlemen. Grooming while driving was ranked as the ninth-most annoying driver behavior.

Women may not shave while driving but they sure do put on lipstick and other cosmetics. Sometimes using both hands! Shaving is safer, IMHO.

1. I have seen people using a cell phone in one hand, and "talking" with the other. The car, and their brains, are on autopilot.

2. Have you never heard Rush talk about the woman that received a ticket for farding in her car? Not releasing gas. Farding, we are told, is applying makeup while driving.

[Egon]

If you're steaming about number 3, chances are you're probably guilty of number 2.

Not always, but often.

This brainless twit needs to have another look around. I've never seen a man shaving whilst driving. I've seen many women applying makeup, usually to their eyes, whilst driving.

My #1 is cutting left turns. I can't tell you how many times someone has cut across my lane while making a left turn.

Dang it! Make a good, sharp left turn. Do not cut across lanes. Sorry if you actually have to turn your steering wheel more than 10 degrees.

[Little Ray]

I hate drivers who go up to the very end of a lane marked as "closed" then try get into the open lane, ahead of those of us who actually changed lanes when we saw the sign.

AND yes, I will close up on the car in front of me to keep them out. They can wait forever as far as I'm concerned.

[mysterio]

Sorry to hear that. However, that's not convincing enough to talk me into growing a new artery to our cancerous tumor of a government.

[cripplecreek]

I hate it when the guy in front is driving too close to me.

Sorry.

[kevkrom]

There are entirely too many police manning speed traps and giving out tickets.

Replace "speed traps" with "HOV lanes" and I'll agree. I hate the "HOV lanes" concept with a passion (a law, not surprisingly, brought to you by the same people who say that we shouldn't "legislate morality") -- the idea of removing 25% to 33% of useful road in the middle of rush hour to over 90% of the traffic doesn't sound like sound policy to me.

Then, you've got cops pulling over violators, which causes additional delays for rubbernecking.

[metmom]

Number one, considering the number of times I've nearly been nailed by somebody blowing off a stop sign whilst talking on their phane and trying to steer an out of control vehicle with one hand.
