One of mine is range rover drivers who think they own the road! They have such a highly capable vehicle and I bet the majority have them to go the shops or take the kids to school! And I bet the majority of owners wont even realise its capabilities nor realise what they have at their finger tips; air suspension, terrain response, low range etc... Just does my head in haha! You see women with big sunglasses on driving them, I always look and say to my self 'get a grip'.

Achmed the owner of the local paper shop for insisting on putting my change on the counter even though i have my hand out

LOL... I'm with Achmed. Always put my change on the counter. I absolutely hate accidentally touching hands with people as you hand it over. Makes me cringe.

most women drivers have got a grip..............................both hands on the steering wheel,so hard there fingers have gone white! some look so whittled whilst driving you'd think they were on a ride at alton towers,not an easy drive to school and back!

People who drive in the central lane of a motorway when not overtaking.

 

Shop assistants who don't respond to my "Good morning/afternoon" when I arrive at the counter to pay. I usually repeat my greeting in a Basil Fawlty manner.

 

People who don't thank me after I hold a door for them. I usually say quite loudly, "You're welcome" (usually receiving a vacant look back as though I'm mad).

 

Basically I hate rudeness.

After a lot of therapy I thought I'd got that oxygen waster out of my system , but obviously I haven't .

I doubt there's enough band width for all my pet hates but most of them have already been listed. Junk mail is up there too.

and the monkey that pushes the button at the pedestrian crossing and then walks out into the traffic anyway before the lights change,

and the monkey who can't be ***** to walk ten yards to the pedestrian crossing and just hangs about in the middle of the road twitching like a spaz as he's about to make a dash for the kerb,

and the monkey that pushes the button on the pedestrian crossing then changes his mind and carries on walking...

grrr

brings to mind another thread, ban pedestrian crossings :lol:

without a doubt my pet hate.

Oh, don't get me started. :lol:

 

People who use wrong words like "pacifically".

Policemen who's hats are too big for them.

People who drive 15mph below the speed limit and then speed up when you try to overtake.

White people who talk like black people.

Rude people.

 

To be continued......

Dithering "one speeds" who pootle along at 40mph on a national speed limit road, then look all hurt and dejected when they get over taken, clearly feeling they are safe drivers . Who then Proceed to drive into the village and past the shool at 1530 at the very same speed. Blissfully unaware of the risks! Idiots!

 

Oh and sell appointed 'lane guardians', often HGV drivers who decide that 800 yards ahead of a lane closure , they are going to enforce a new one, and filtering is only allowed behind them.

 

It's quite therapeutic this!

People who drive down the outside of a queue assuming everyone else is queueing for fun, then push in at the front. :P

The worst has got to be when you slow up at a roundabout for someone coming from the right and they turn off without indicating.

Yes same here happens daily and is verry annoying!

 

Also hate chavs that talk so chavvy that it must take a huge amount of effort to talk like that

Lycra clad cycle fascists riding two or more abreast ignoring all the rules of the road..... :sad1:

On a recent Speeding Awareness Course.... Ahem! ... The ex-copper taking it said that multiple cyclists are positively encouraged to ride two abreast for the safety of other road users... The reason being that it reduces the time that overtaking motorists are forced onto "the wrong side of the road" compared to if they were overtaking a long line of single file cyclists. I believe cycling clubs etc also promote this.... This presupposes of course that drivers wait for a safe place & pull out properly when overtaking a bike, and not just squeeze past putting all parties at risk.
