Top Ten Most Annoying Things People to to Me when I Am Driving

I was driving home from town the other day, and a women slammed on her brakes in front of me. No big deal until I looked around and saw no reason for her to do so. I sped up and passed her and saw that she was doing her makeup and must have dropped her foundation all over her, because she was holding up paper towels full of light brown makeup. I laughed to myself a little. Even though the situation was comical, it wouldn't have been if I didn't notice the ignorant slamming of brakes and slammed on mine. Driving today is hard, not just because of the actual "driving" part, but because people in this day in age feel the roads are for them and them only. Here are some of the things I hate the most that people do while driving:

10. People feel they need to get as close as they can to your back bumper.
When I am driving or stopped, I try to keep at least a car and a half length away from the car ahead of me. Most people think that half a foot is enough. Now, I don't know much about getting into accidents because I have never really been in many to have an opinion on them, but don't you think that the closer you follow the less time to re-act to the ahead drivers actions. I hope you aren't easily distracted.

9. When you get into an actual car accident, even if it's not your fault, the other person always gets out of the car and automatically looks at you like it was your fault.
I was about to take a left turn onto the ramp of a highway, I had a green arrow, and the traffic coming towards me had a red light. Well, this one man thought he was a bull, and red meant to charge. He of course slammed into the side of my car. We both got out, I was calm, and ready to hear his excuse. His first words were "you know how much this is going to cost you" and my response was "next time take the back roads when your on mind-altering substances, because obviously your color blind". He argued a little bit, and the cops showed up, and asked the witnesses that were there told him and the officer what I just got done telling you. He still argued up until he was told he had to pay for the damage.

8. When your on the highway and you aren't going 15 above the speed limit, and the person behind you wants you to do so, and they get as close as they can to you, hoping this will speed you up.
This goes back to number one. Just because I can see the actual face of aggravation you have up close, doesn't mean I care enough to get a speeding ticket. Pass me, if you can't, slow down and be patient. I'm sure the up coming dotted lines that are less then a mile away, will come quick enough.

7. When your in a large parking lot and you have been looking for a decent spot to park in for awhile and you finally spot one and someone that just started to look takes it on you, even though they know you want it.
At my school the back row spots are at least a half a mile away from the front doors. One day I was looking for a closer one, because it was cold and rainy. I was looking for a good ten minutes driving back and forth to find one, and I spotted one about three rows back. I turned in and made my way toward it. With my blinker on and already making a turn this man came up and swiped it on me. I actually was so far into the turn I had to back up and make my car straight again. I sat there in amazement that he did it and waited for him to get out so I could actually see him. No such luck, he must of known what he did was wrong because he sat in there till I drove off. I need up parking in the back row.

6. When you are on a road/highway/etc, and you are doing the full speed limit and someone turns onto the road/highway/etc in front of you, making you slow down to wait while they catch up.
This one can go either way. Sometimes pulling in front of you is their only option if the roads are busy, but most of the time they aren't. This one irritates me because it shows the lack of patience and respect people have, period.

5. When your on a two lane highway and the car in front of you and the car that is ahead kiddie corner to the right are side by side.
This one can be so annoying you talk about it for days. Mostly because the person ahead of you isn't driving fast enough to be in the fast lane anyway.

4. When someone has their blinker on for a mile and a half, and you don't know where this turn is going to take place. Even more frustrating, the turn never really does take place.
This one is self explanatory.

3. When your in a parking lot and your stuck behind a car that wants to wait for someone to pull out. Not only that but the person whom is pulling out isn't even all the way to their car yet.
I was doing this one day, and watched this man fumble with his keys, unlock, put his items in his trunk, get in, start the car, and finally pull out. Now, the bad part is that I was looking around and found a parking spot open two spots back from the one the car in front of me wanted. I can understand being handicapped, and not able to walk far due to various reasons, but this girl looked younger then me, and ran inside the store.

2. When you merge onto the highway and have to stoop because the person who is coming up onto is to lazy to move over.
This happens more then it should. I know they have the right away but, when the car coming doesn't have anyone on the side of them or behind them won't move over? Someone gets their goodies off of being a jerk.

1. This one is my number one because it makes me the most mad. Personally it might not be yours but then again your not writing this. When someone to the side of you wants to have a good time. By this I mean basically seeing if you want to race, wants to get your number, or just wants to look at you and laugh.
I was stopped at an intersection with a red light one day, and wasn't really paying attention to anyone around me because of this very reason. There were a car of guys to the left of me, that wanted to get MY attention. They honked the horn and succeeded in doing this. I looked up and saw one of them with their tongue out, and one with their rear end staring at me. I laughed and looked away thinking that was the end of it. The light turned green, I started driving off and they did to. They kept up to the side of me and wouldn't pass me. They kept doing obscene things, and I tried my hardest to ignore them, but who can ignore someone sticking their genitalia out the moon roof??? Then the two lane became one and they made their way ahead of me and continued to do this until finally I turned off the road.

I'm not a perfect driver, but I can assure you that I do not do any of these ten things. I know how annoying doing these things can be, so therefor I won't pass on the favor to anyone else. Hopefully someone who does this kinda of stuff reads this and will discontinue doing them. Until then, I guess it will just give me more incentive to write articles like this.
